(REPEAT BROADCAST) This week, on the Global Research News Hour, with tensions soaring lately over the decision by outgoing president Biden to allow Ukraine to fire ATACMS missiles into the territory of its neighbours, we are spending time discussing the latest stage of the conflict which could make NATO a direct combatant in the Russia-Ukraine war and lead to World War III. For most of the show, we are joined by military veteran turned peace activist Scott Ritter to tell us about some of the history of the war extending way before February 2022, the latest updates, and his involvement with Operation Dawn. Toward the end of the show, we hear from Hamilton based peace activist Ken Stone about plans to counter NATO during the group’s meeting in Montreal, Quebec this coming weekend.

(repeat broadcast) This week, on the Global Research News Hour we share the disappointing news, in the eyes of some critics, that a modified, watered down version of the Pandemic Agreement was finally approved at the World Health Assembly last month, and the prospects for rights and national sovereignty moving forward. In our first half hour, we play an excerpt from a September 2024 interview with journalist and film maker James Corbett of the Corbett Report on last year’s failure of the Pandemic Agreement in which he successfully predicted the threat it represented would be approved sooner or later. And in our second half hour, we spoke to commentator Dr. Meryl Nass about what is still problematic about this year’s approach to stopping apparently much more frequent pandemic calls in the years ahead.

REPEAT BROADCAST - This week, on the Global Research News Hour, concerns are starting to be raised about more and more journalists, activists and even scholars who are having their lives disrupted in the wake of detentions, arrests, and even outright suppression of rights as the cancer of anti-terrorism laws grows to the point of targeting almost anyone who voices concerns as we have on the show about the NATO instigated Ukraine War, opposition to the genocidal campaign waged by Israel and more. This show features an array of guests with dissenting views on foreign policy in Canada and abroad facing such measures and some analysis of what can be done to reverse this trend. Conversations with journalists Eva Bartlett and Vanessa Beeley, and with academics Tamara Lorincz, Radhika Desai and Kevin Mackay.

REPEAT BROADCAST - This week on the global Research News Hour, we are observing key themes in 21st century warfare that are missed in conventnional mainstream media coverage. In our first half hour. Bruce Gagnon of the Global Network Against Weapons and Nuclear Power in Space reveals how space technology has transformed modern warfare and how today’s peacemakers can fight back. And in our second half hour, the pivotal 9/11 truth activist Richard Gage steps in to tell listeners about the 21 parallels between the September 11th terrorist attack on America and the October 7th Hamas attack on Israel, including the state reaction satisfying the nation’s prior geo-strategic goals.

On today’s broadcast we will air excerpts from a webinar held on June 10 and focusing on the theme of how both NATO and the G7 are vehicles for the imperialist powers to dominate the globe and make the planet a great deal more dangerous. It was organized by the Canada-Wide Peace and Justice Network and featured three key voices: Owen Schalk, Tamara Lorincz and Barbara Waldern.

This week, on the Global Research News Hour, we have a special episode dealing with the principal concerns of the leading critic of Canadian foreign policy, Yves Engler. We discuss the subject of the Israel-bias in mainstream Canadian media and we also discuss Yves’s decision to run seriously for the New Democratic Party, after its former leader resigned. We will also hear part of an interview from 2018 with Yves by Global Research News Hour collaborator and friend Paul Graham.

This week on the Global Research News Hour we are taking on major crimes of disinformation in Western media regarding the 21 month assault on the people of Gaza, which conveniently distorts it to the point here Israelis are the victims and the Palestinians who die by the tens of thousands are all Hamas. How is this task continuously achieved in the age of information? In our first half hour, we hear from reporter Robert Inlakesh about the state of censorship in the conflict currently. And in our second half hour, Jason Toney of Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East shows up to introduce listeners to the latest publication from The Breach entitled When Genocide Wasn’t News: How Canadian Media Covered up the Destruction of Gaza

This week on the Global Research News Hour we examine this fundamental push happening toward support for NATO and militarism happening behind the scenes while our planet is facing a host of other problems. In our first half hour we speak to Alex Tyrrell leader of the Green Party of Quebec about a disturbing trend of NATO aligned entities looking to promote themselves under the guise of civic participation of our youth to reverse the anti-war trend that has developed among young people today. Then in our second half hour, we talk to revered peace activist figure Medea Benjamin about NATO countries’ overwhelmingly agreed to addition of 5 Percent of nations’ GDP to defensive purposes will also subtract from our commitment to the environment and each other. Finally, peace activist Ken Stone joins us to talk about CANA. The Canadian NATO Parliamentary Association, and how it too drowns out Canadian military and foreign policy independence in the waters that power Defence contractors and Weapons manufacturers at the expense of everyone from the elderly to the next generation.

This week on the Global Research News Hour we focus the spotlight on long time friend and colleague James Corbett, host of the Corbett Report on the arrival of his brand new book, Reportage: Essays on the New World Order, a book that explores the podcasters journey through the many topics that should concern listeners but that is ignored and suppressed in mainstream media, including the false flag theory of the 9/11 attacks, the control by elites of both the Left and the Right, the capture of science and environmental concerns and much, much more.

This week on the Global Research News Hour, we look at the recent attack on Iran by Israel and the reciprocal attacks by Iran and the alarming direction this exchange of missiles could lead in the not so distant future. In our first half hour, we talk to Military analyst Drago Bosnic about the latest developments and the possibility of the greater powers getting into the fray. And in our second half hour, the economist, writer and radio broadcaster Jack Rasmus is back to look at the history of decline of the US Empire and the latest damage this strike against Iran will do to the fate of the US empire.

Today on the Global Research News Hour, we are looking at plans by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to boost military spending to 2 percent of the GDP of his country in just a few months, his apparent embrace of the unproven Golden Dome missile defense shield and what stakes await Canadians who want to stop war, not start new ones (especially those of a nuclear nature.) In our first half hour, the scientist Theodore Postol of MIT joins us to explain why the Missile Defense shield today,, like missile defense in the 1980s is more science fiction than science fact and why alternatives would be far more preferable to this insanely expensive strategy. Then in our second half hour, we sit down with Tamara Lorincz of the Canadian Voice Women for Peace to discuss the false vision of a more peaceful world through increasing and expensive military strength and how to refute these claims in Canada. Finally, Alberta organizer Morrigan Johnson representing the Canada-Wide peace and justice network explains what is wrong with the G7 leaders meeting in his province this weekend and about the activities pushing back against an agenda not in the interest of the Canadian or the world’s people.

This week on the Global Research News Hour, as the wildfires in Manitoba and across Canada are raising concerns and has many figures pointing to Climate Change as a major culprit, we resurrect an earlier interview pertaining to secret technology being used that not only affects forest fires, but also weather, earthquakes, hurricanes and even shockingly people! We will speak to the author of the Geoengineering trilogy and discuss the fourth book, “The Geoengineered TransHuman: The Hidden Technologies of HAARP, Chemtrails, 5G/6G, nanotechnology, Synthetic Biology, and the Scientific Effort to Transform Humanity.”

This week on the Global Research News Hour we continue our discussion of CUBA in the modern era by spending the bulk of our time in the physical company of Gerardo Hernandez, the leader of the CUBAN 5. During our conversation we talked about the mission for which the group was punished, his his time in prison, the impact of being freed, and the difficult journey of CUBA in modern times.

The Cuban people have been through so much over the last 60 plus years with intense periods of hardship, especially over the last decade. The bulk of this hardship, I suspect, is due to the Blockade. But there is a disturbing trend developing at least as far back as the Obama administration, that elements of the Cuban society are succumbing to American pressure and are serving roles willingly or not against the very principles of the Revolution. If that is the case, how does the resistance in the streets react to the reality of the enemy within so to speak? And has the Revolutionary fight weakened with the death of the legendary Fidel Castro? That concept will be the subscript to the discussion in a special episode of this program.
