Cindy Sheehan's Soapbox

 Meltdown USA Day 72 As most of you reading this, I had never been in a general quarantine before; so, in this blog on March 19th, I started what I had planned to be a quarantine series called "A Sheltered Life." I quickly learned after a few entries, that above all, sheltering in place (SIP) was super-boring, and I ran out of ways to say nothing. However, looking back to Day One, I wrote this: 1) The US government and its servants are never going to allow a "good crisis" to "go to waste." Rahm Emanuel---democratic politician 2) The USG and its servants will never tell you the truth and is, in fact, relishing in all of these police state measures they are forcing on us. I don't think we've seen the worst of the measures, unfortunately. 3) STRESS is the number one factor that will lead to chronic or serious illness.

May 28, 2020 TOPIC : ISRAEL/PALESTINE GLOBAL FASCISM  GUEST: Bob Fantina For the 2nd time this week, Cindy welcomes back author/activist Bob Fantina. Cindy and Bob talk about Israel's continued illegal annexation of the West Bank and the deeper issues of the collaboration between the twin evils of the USA and Israel.

May 25, 2020 GUEST: BOB FANTINA TOPIC: HOW THE U.S. JUSTIFIES IT'S WARS The United States has been at war for 227 years of it’s 244- year history. It is currently at war in seven countries and its special forces operate in 149 countries. This century-spanning success of warfare has been condensed into a single volume. It details all the major wars of U.S. history, plus many of the minor and mostly forgotten ones. From the wars against the Native Americans and the War of 1812, through the period when the U.S. became a super power, to the global killing fields of the past 70 years, this book demonstrates how little the playbook has changed over the generations. Propaganda, lies and false flags: these have been the means to bring the country to war, and they will remain so until we wake up to the deception.  click to order book Intro by Cindy Sheehan! ********************************************

Happy Belated May Day! ****************** May 2, 2020     TOPIC: Averting Our Gaze From Biowarfare: Pandemics and Self-fulfilling Prophecies Guest: Independent journalist, Sam Husseini   Averting Our Gaze From Biowarfare: Pandemics and Self-fulfilling Prophecies by  Sam Husseini Those bastards in their white lab coats Who experiment with mountain goats Should leave the universe alone It’s not their business, not their home ~ John Prine, “ Lonesome Friends of Science “ People who are  dismissing the possibility that the pandemic  might have come from a lab – either accidentally from a Wuhan lab or them being  effectively framed, as we saw with the 2001 anthrax attacks  – are basically risking the future of humanity because they don’t want to have an uncomfortable discussion. On Feb. 11, I asked Anne Schuchat, the CDC’s Principal Deputy Director, at the National Press Club if it were a “ complete coincidence ” that the outbreak of the novel
