A weekly 30 minute review of news and opinion, recorded from a
shortwave radio. With times and freqs for listening at home. 2 files-
broadcast and slow-modem streaming. Free to rebroadcast. China,
Netherlands, Cuba, and Russia.
Dear Radio Friend,
The latest Shortwave Report (October 12) is up at the website
http://www.outfarpress.com/outfarpress/shortwave.shtml in both
broadcast quality (13.3MB) and quickdownload or streaming form
(4.9MB) (28:59)
This week's show features stories from China Radio International,
Radio Netherlands, Radio Havana Cuba, and the Voice of Russia.
>From CHINA- An Iraqi Parliamentarian described the Blackwater
killings in Iraq as symptomatic of a disorder where citizens have
become the targets. Australian mercenary guards killed 2 civilian
women in Baghdad on Tuesday. The US Supreme Court dropped a
lawsuit by a German citizen who was abducted and tortured by the CIA
in Afghanistan. The Israeli Prime Minister says he will devote the next
year to pursuing peace with the Palestinians. The Iranian President
responded to remarks made by Geo Bush about future negotiations
between the countries.
>From NETHERLANDS- Demonstrations, including direct action,
continue in Europe about the struggle for democracy in Burma. British
Prime Minister Brown announced a troop reduction in Iraq last week- an
analysis of his actions. Costa Rican voters narrowly approved joining
CAFTA and Radio Netherlands received many comments about their
coverage leading up to the vote.
>From CUBA- A Palestinian is suing the UK for illegal sales of weapons
and equipment to Israel, which were used to confiscate his land in
2005. More than 200,000 people marched 24 km in Italy to call for
human rights and an end to wars.
>From RUSSIA- Recently declassified Pentagon documents show that
the US was researching ways to use radioactive material to eliminate
foreign leaders and troops. A commentary on Iraqi leaders giving up on
plans for reconciliation between sectarian groups in Iraq. A commentary
on the controversial US missile defense shield planned to be installed
in Poland, the Czech Republic, and England.
There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on
line at- http://www.campusprogress.org/soundvision/780/big-stories-
shortwaves
I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek,
available at http://radio.mediageek.net
All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to
rebroadcast, please notify me if you're airing it and haven't notified me
in the last month, please mention the website if you only air a portion. If
you just want to listen and have a slow connection, try the streaming
version- lower sound quality but good enough and way easier if you
don't have a high-speed internet connection. If streaming is a problem
because of your slow connection, download the smaller file- it takes 20
minutes or less, and will play swell in any mp3 player application
(RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, iTunes, etc) you have on your
computer.
This program will be aired on Friday afternoon at 4:30pm (PDST) on
KZYX/Z Philo CA, you might be able to stream via
There are several other streams that work better- <
http://www.freakradio.org >Freak Radio Santa Cruz now streams this
program on Friday at 9:00am and Monday at 5:30pm(PDST)

ents > or iTunes (search for "shortwave" in podcasts)
Check out the amazing streams at < http://www.radicalradio.org >
And Radio For Peace International at < http://www.rfpi.org >
I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I
am still wondering how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I
put into this program weekly- any ideas are appreciated. Any stations
rebroadcasting this (or listeners) are welcome to donate for production
costs. You can do so through the website. Many thanks to those that
have donated! No Guilt! (maybe a little)

?FurthuR! Dan Roberts
Naturally, the common people don't want war ... but after all it is the
leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple
matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist
dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no
voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders.
That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked,
and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the
country to danger. It works the same in every country.
