Today’s episode was predominantly news-oriented, featuring returning guest Rush Paul (former intern for Mizrahi Democratic Rainbow) and Roxanne Rogers (former intern for Holy Land Trust). The first topic of discussion concerned the future of Libya in the aftermath of Ghadafi’s death, with debating as to whether it could deteriorate to Afghanistan-like conditions or see a faster recovery. The next topic concerned the Occupy Wall Street movement in the United States, with Martin and guests comparing it unfavorably to other movements around the globe; the discussion closed with an analysis of Iran’s vested interests (or lack thereof) in the continued American presence in Iraq and Afghanistan. Musical selections included: Elvis Costello & The Attractions – Goon Squad The Protomen – The Will of One Diagram Brothers – I’m Not Going To Fight For Oil Beck – Soldier Jane
