First interview Gareth Porter

IPS News journalist Gareth Porter discusses his article “Pentagon Nixed 1998 U.S. Nuclear Scientists’ Probe of Iranian Programme;” how successive US administrations have blocked or ignored information that disproves the “Iran is making nuclear weapons” propaganda; Dick Cheney’s ironic and humorous anti-sanctions arguments in 1996 (while CEO of Halliburton); how the Bush administration knew for certain that Iraq did not have a nuclear program in 2003; and Gareth’s upcoming book Manufactured Crisis: The Secret History of the Iran Nuclear Scare.

Second interview Jason Leopold

Truthout journalist Jason Leopold discusses his article about Adnan Latif’s tragic and avoidable death in Guantanamo prison in September; why Latif should have been released years ago (and never imprisoned in the first place); the Yemeni government’s refusal to claim Latif’s body until the US reveals a cause of death – which is no longer assumed to be suicide; and how the Bush and Obama administrations, with help from the courts, have eviscerated habeas corpus and the Constitution. (Duration: 27:46 — 6.4MB)
