NOW HEAR THIS: Cindy's Internet broadcasts continue!
As soon as she gets her voice back!
Mother's day, revisited. Click here to listen or download, beginning at 2:00 PM San Francisco time. This Sunday (May 13th), Cindy has no new show for us because "I couldn't tape the show after allergies stole my voice. (NOTE: it's hard to record a talk show when you can't even talk!) Instead, she brings us a special Mother's Day program: Originally recorded as A Tale of Two Cindys, this Mother's Day special brings back a most honored guest from 2011: Cindy Corrie. (Note: The preceding link goes to Part 1 of an interview with Rachel Corrie's parents. Part 2 is here.) Both of these ladies suffered a mother's worst nightmare: the loss of her precious child - to the forces of empire! Our listeners here are all aware of the loss of Casey Sheehan in Iraq in 2005. Cindy Corrie's daughter, peace activist Rachel Corrie, was crushed to death by an Israeli bulldozer in 2003 as she tried to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian family's home. 
Motivated by her daughter's work and sacrifice, Cindy Corrie has dedicated herself to the pursuit of justice and peace in the Middle East. Today - for some reason - neither of these two are big fans of military empire - by anyone, at any time, under any name! (Why can't they just be reasonable and respectable patriots who accept that "KILLING = GLORY," just as they're taught?) My goodness; you might think they were actually offended by the military killing their children! What chutzpah! You'd think they believed in the supreme value of a single human life! How impractical: Kill one single innocent civilian - and you're guilty of murder. Rack up 100,000 corpses or a few millions, and you're a glorious hero, conducting foreign policy! Evidently, the bigger the number of victims the more glorious your "victory." (Or is it really that the more publicity you get, the more glorious your "victory" becomes?)
As always, the show can be heard streaming at Community Progressive Radio at 2pm (pacific) on Sunday or - (forever) - at the archives of
Cindy Sheehan's Soapbox (as SOAPBOX #85).
