2/24/22 Hassan El-Tayyab on the Effort to End the War in Yemen
Scott is joined by Hassan El-Tayyab of the Friends Committee on National Legislation to discuss Yemen. Despite the rapidly unfolding situation in Ukraine, Scott and El-Tayyab agree that what’s happening in Yemen is still the worst humanitarian crisis taking place in the world. And the war can only carry on with the continued support of the U.S. Government. El-Tayyab details how some Americans are working to get their government to stop supporting the Saudi’s immoral war of aggression.
Discussed on the show:
- “Lawmakers take action on Biden’s failed Yemen policy” (Responsible Statecraft)
- 1-833-STOPWAR
Hassan El-Tayyab is a musician and peace activist, who works as the lead lobbyist on Middle East policy for the Friends Committee on National Legislation.

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.

12/13/10 – 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.

12/13/10 – Rob Prince – The Scott Horton Show
Rob Prince, publisher of the Colorado Progressive Jewish News and lecturer at the University of Denver’s Josef Korbel School of International Studies, discusses the WikiLeaks Cablegate document that shows the Bush administration twisted Ethiopia’s arm to invade Somalia; how former Under Secretary of State for Africa Jendayi Frazer threw Ethiopia under the bus when the invasion turned sour; how the US used Ethiopia as a proxy army against the Union of Islamic Courts (presumably hated because of their name) while US forces were bogged down in Iraq and Afghanistan; why Condi Rice’s ignorance of world affairs (partly excepting Russia) is typical of American statesmen; how a respectable performance in Afghanistan could transform NATO into a worldwide police force; and the US search for a military foothold in Africa — preferably near the continent’s abundant mineral and energy resources.
