NEW ARTICLE about the Shortwave Report in the Boulder Weekly by Gavin Dahl-
 
     This week's show features stories from NHK World Radio Japan, Spanish National Radio, Radio Havana Cuba, and Sputnik Radio.
     From JAPAN- The US and South Korea began another round of military drills along the Korean peninsula. North Korea considered the drills a direct provocation. A Chinese fishing boat sank a South Korean coast guard boat in a dispute over territorial waters. Russia and Turkey made a deal to complete a gas pipeline between the countries for distribution to Europe, and accelerated plans to jointly build a nuclear power plant in southern Turkey- they also agreed to get humanitarian aid to the Syrian city of Aleppo.
       From SPAIN In this week's Panorama, Alison Hughes reported on the two rival resolutions on Syria at the UN Security Council, both were defeated. A leaked UN report revealed that the US and EU sanctions against Syria are causing the greatest suffering among ordinary Syrians and preventing the delivery of humanitarian aid. Saudi airstrikes on a funeral procession in Yemen killed at least 155 people- the US approved another $1.3 billion arms sale to Saudi Arabia, adding to the $22 billion in weapon sales to the Saudis since March 2015. The US blames Houthi rebels for firing missiles at a US ship in waters off the coast- as of press time, the US is firing missiles into Yemen.
     From CUBA- In Colombia President Santos and FARC rebels have pledged to continue talks to complete their peace agreement despite losing support in a very close popular referendum. 20 Latin American countries met in Ecuador to work toward a legal international treaty that would hold transnational corporations accountable for human rights abuses. Answering a call from the School of the Americas Watch, hundreds of activists met on both sides of the US/Mexico border to protest a US military station and in support of migrant rights.
       From RUSSIA- On his show Going Underground, Afshin Rattansi interviewed US activist Medea Benjamin. She spoke about the Israeli seizure in international waters of a boat carrying women activists, including  a Nobel peace laureate, that was  heading to Gaza. Congress overrode Obama's veto on the right of 911 families to sue Saudi Arabia, which may lead to lawsuits against the US government for human rights violations.

I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available at http://radio.mediageek.net 
 
  All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to rebroadcast, please notify me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the last month, please mention the website if you only air a portion. If you just want to listen and have a slow connection, try the streaming version- lower sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a high-speed internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow connection, download the smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will play swell in any mp3 player application (RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, iTunes, etc) you have on your computer. 
TIME SLOT on KZYX! This program will be aired on Sunday afternoon at 4pm (PST) on KZYX/Z Philo CA, you might be able to stream via < http://www.kzyx.org > 
 
I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I am still wondering how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into this program weekly- any ideas are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting this (or listeners) are welcome to donate for production costs. You can do so through the website. Many thanks to those that have donated! No Guilt! (maybe a little)
