Gorilla Radio with Chris Cook, Jeremy Kuzmarov, Dimitri Lascaris September 20, 2023

Welcome to Gorilla Radio, recorded September 20th, 2023. Yesterday, the American president took the podium at the United Nations to perform his annual liturgical duty, repeating the lies and hypocrisies defining his nation. Yes, the United States is - as it wreaks havoc across the planet - really keen for a World where "...our children do not go hungry and everyone has access [to] quality healthcare, where workers are empowered and our environment is protected... where conflicts are resolved peacefully and countries can chart their own course." If that doesn't bring the bile to your mouth, you need to know more about what America does to countries who try charting their own course. Especially if that course includes feeding the hungry, providing healthcare to the sick, and empowering workers. There are many examples to choose from, including Nicaragua; a nation that has felt the Yankee boot on its neck for very nearly two centuries. Jeremy Kuzmarov is a journalist and author who also serves as Managing Editor at CovertActionMagazine.com. His book titles include, ‘Obama’s Unending Wars’, and ‘The Russians Are Coming, Again’, written with John Marciano. His latest article at CAM, ‘Biden Has Relaunched Reagan’s Murderous War Against Nicaraguan Democracy–How Many Is He Willing to Kill to Win?‘ examines America’s ongoing campaign against the country that still will not bend a knee to Empire. Jeremy Kuzmarov in the first half. And; America's persistent historical interference in Nicaragua and its more recent machinations in Ukraine differ only in scale. And though the ruination being made out of the latter is fast becoming total, still the NATO alliance and its international collaborators say, "push on". Dimitri Lascaris is a Montreal-based activist, journalist, and lawyer. He served as Justice Critic in the Shadow Cabinet of the Green Party of Canada and likewise for the Green Party of Quebec. Dimitri’s interviews for TRNN are at TheRealNews.com. Dimitri's articles appear at various sites online and at his website, DimitriLascaris.org, where I found his latest piece, 'Ukraine's Worst Enemies Are Those Who Demand Russia's Strategic Defeat'. Dimitri Lascaris and Ukraine's 'friends like these' in the second half. But first, Jeremy Kuzmarov and Biden ridin' the legacy of Reagan in Nicaragua.
