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 (September 21) 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- The first shipment of heavy fuel oil from China has
arrived in N Korea. Chinese officials say that they have made big
advances in monitoring food safety. China's environmental protection
agency say all corporations must obey laws, and have gone after
Unilever for violations. China says that negotiations are the way to
resolve US disputes with Iran, and disapproves threats. IAEA chief El-
Baradei spoke out against US and French threats to attack Iran. The
US is drafting a new series of sanctions to punish Iran for its nuclear
development.
>From NETHERLANDS- An analysis of the banning of Blackwater from
Iraq following the murder of numerous civilians- is the ban temporary
and how would their absence affect the withdrawal of non-mercenary
troops? Many in the Netherlands want Dutch troops withdrawn from
Afghanistan at the conclusion of their 2 year agreement.
>From CUBA- Iran made an angry response to the French minister who
suggested that the world should prepare for a war on Iran. Chiquita
Banana was allowed to pay a $25 million fine for making payments to a
right-wing Colombian paramilitary group. Former UN Ambassador from
the US John Bolton said that Washington would support an Israeli
attack on Iran, while a retired Army General said that there are ways to
live with a nuclear Iran. Israeli warplanes have been flying over S
Lebanon in violation of UN resolutions.
>From RUSSIA- A commentary on the Washington DC antiwar rally
where 100,000 people demanded an end to the war on Iraq. US
Defense Secretary Robert Gates said that the US was responsible for
the collapse of the Soviet Union- most Russians disagree. According to
recent surveys, Europeans think that the nation posing the greatest
threat to world peace is the USA.
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)
The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from <

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)

-- A "just war" is hospitable to every self-deception on the part of those
waging it, none more than the certainty of virtue, under whose shelter
every abomination can be committed with a clear conscience
