12/20/10 – Nebojsa Malic – The Scott Horton Show

Nebojsa Malic, author of the ‘Moments of Transition‘ column on Antiwar.com, discusses the Council of Europe report on Kosovo’s ‘mafia-like‘ government that traffics in drugs, weapons and human organs; the KLA‘s speedy (and undeserved) 1998 transition from a US-designated terrorist group to a band of ‘freedom fighters;’ the multitude of lies before, during and after the Kosovo War; how Richard Holbrooke helped negotiate the laudable Dayton Agreement bringing peace to Bosnia-Herzegovina then worked steadfastly to undermine it; and how the US effort to reinvigorate NATO — which became an anachronism after the Soviet collapse — can partly explain the seemingly strange US interest in Kosovo.

12/17/10 – Glenn Greenwald – The Scott Horton Show

Glenn Greenwald, Salon.com blogger and former constitutional lawyer, discusses the inhumane detention conditions of accused WikiLeaks source Bradley Manning; eyewitness accounts of Manning’s deteriorating mental and physical condition; studies that show severe isolation has long term psychological consequences and is akin to torture; the government’s domestic ‘shock and awe’ campaign of fear and intimidation against dissidents and whistleblowers; why Manning’s draconian imprisonment may be a negotiating tactic to coerce testimony against Julian Assange; and why the government is now considering conspiracy charges against Assange instead of using the problematic Espionage Act of 1917.

12/17/10 – Frank Dorrel – The Scott Horton Show

Frank Dorrel, publisher and distributor of the antiwar comic book Addicted to War, discusses how he turned to antiwar activism after serving in the US Air Force during Vietnam; his film ‘What I’ve Learned About U.S. Foreign Policy: The War Against The Third World;’ how activist education helps Americans wake up to the destructive nature of their government; and why many Americans self-identify through a ‘civic religion’ of indoctrinated nationalism.

12/15/10 – Thomas E. Woods – The Scott Horton Show

Thomas E. Woods, author of Nullification: How to Resist Federal Tyranny in the 21st Century, discusses the few Leftists and many libertarians working to shift the balance of power away from Washington and toward local control; why it’s still hard to shake the nearly 150-year old misconception that secessionists are slavery sympathizers; why an ignorant population is much more likely to inherit an authoritarian state than a libertarian paradise following a government and economic collapse; and polls that show a large majority of Americans prefer unchecked government secrecy and have no interest in maintaining a free press.

12/15/10 – Robert Murphy – The Scott Horton Show

Robert Murphy, author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to Capitalism and the blog Free Advice and ConsultingByRPM.com, discusses David Frum’s concern that the Austrian School of economics is rapidly gaining favor over the Chicago School, Frum’s faulty recollections of monetary policy in the Reagan administration, how the Fed’s war on recessions prevents the market from self-healing by redistributing resources where needed, and the right-wingers who supported bailouts under Bush but oppose them under Obama.

12/13/10 – Chris Deliso – The Scott Horton Show

Chris Deliso, journalist, travel writer and author concentrating on the Balkans and Southeast Europe, discusses how WikiLeaks is turning traditional journalism on its head and making plenty of enemies along the way; the risk of deliberate media distortion when huge caches of primary sources are released at once and can’t be effectively vetted; the danger of false leaks receiving mass dissemination; how the future of journalism is tending toward interpretation of facts rather than investigative work; and how the public is susceptible to ‘leak overload’ where blockbuster information is readily available but nobody cares.
