Name: 9.19.24 Veterans for Peace: Activist Anthony Donovan says that Iran Is NOT Our Enemy by Veterans for Peace THE HECTOR BLACK CHAPTER
Duration: 1 h

VFP Activist Anthony Donovan joins us to discuss his recent article in Peace and Planet News that "Iran is NOT our Enemy" despite all we hear and all we are manipulated to believe.  Anthony visited Iran and met the people and reflected on the differences between what he learned on his visit versus what we are told here in the US.  Anthony sees us being manipulated into war with Iran and warns us not to trust what we hear from Israel and especially our own government.  He explains Iran's efforts to maintain peace and avoid war despite the antagonists in Israel and the neo-cons in the US.

Killing the VA: Trump’s Veterans Agenda

On this special episode, Brian and Layan discuss the targeting of Palestinian organizer at Columbia University Mahmoud Khalil, who was illegally dragged from his campus housing by Department of Homeland Security officers and taken to an ICE detention facility as the Trump administration prepares to deport him. This is part of a nationwide effort to suppress the Palestinian solidarity movement on college campuses but the Trump administration’s target will impact all sectors of society.

Brian Becker is joined by Layan Sima Fuleihan, a Palestinian organizer with the Shut It Down for Palestine coalition, a popular educator, the Education Director at The People’s Forum, and an editor at 1804 Books.

Trump Arrests Palestine Campus Organizer, But Millions Say, “No Way”

Two nights ago, Israel shattered the ceasefire with Palestine, killing more than 400 people in Gaza, with more bombings that today were followed with a new ground invasion. Donald Trump bombed Yemen and is threatening war with Iran, a formidable and large country with a very strong military. Is a regional war coming?

Brian is joined by Professor Mohammad Marandi, an expert on American studies who teaches at the University of Tehran.
