Who let the Logs out!? Wikileaks drops 400,000 classified documents shedding new light on the Iraq war—the biggest leak of classified military documents in history—sending shockwaves across the Fourth Estate. Rap News marks the occasion by inviting into the studio the former US Secretary of Offense, Donald Rumsfeld. But what starts out as a conventional Rap News interview soon descends into mayhem as the live feed is hijacked by News World Order, eager to spin the record like a disc jockey on crack. Enter Bill O'Really, the champion of Fair & Balanced journalism, dragging us screaming into the No Spine Zone. Only divine intervention can save us now, from a fate worse than death. But beware of imitators; not all is what it seems to be! Join us for a rollercoaster episode of Rap News, featuring a very very special guest appearance. Juice Rap News: written by Giordano Nanni; lyrics and performance by Hugo Farrant. Created by Farrant & Nanni in a back-yard studio in suburban Melbourne. **************************************************************************************** USEFUL LINKS: Find out more about: Wikileaks: http://wikileaks.org Julian Assange: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVGqE726OAo Bill O'Reilly at his finest: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tJjNVVwRCY UN Human Rights Commissioner calls for inquiry into US/IRAQ after seeing Wikileaks evidence: http://www.ohchr.org/EN/NewsEvents/Pages/DisplayNews.aspx?NewsID=10477&LangID=E Full clip of Barak Obama's words on Government transparency (2008 election campaign): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CU0m6Rxm9vU ************************************* SUPPORT Rap News so we can keep broadcasting rhyme and reason on the only remaining free frequency: http://thejuicemedia.com/donate or Bitcoin: 1HMPK1zFCLopAvNEvR3aehFU1tSvHeWkTS Download MP3 and Lyrics and find out more about Rap News: Website: http://thejuicemedia.com Download mp3: https://soundcloud.com/juice-rap-news/rn-5-rap-news-vs-news-world Lyrics: http://www.reverbnation.com/rapnews Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/robert.foster#!/robertfoster.rapnews https://www.facebook.com/juicerapnews All art and design in this episode by: http://www.visualtonic.com.au ************************************* CREDITS: This episode would never have come together but for the help and enthusiasm of the following great people: JA, Sarah, Joseph, Frontline; Mat (Soulem Prods) for tracking vocals, and Hannah for warm hospitality.

Like others that preceded us, our "civilisation" faces an Energy Crisis, one that threatens to bring an end to our brief joyride since the industrial revolution. And yet, our dirty little secret is seldom mentioned in the news, let alone connected to economic instability or to environmental effects on our planet. It falls to Robert Foster to bring this topic back into the fore of our consciousness, where he conducts an incisive analysis of the situation to see what solutions are out there to deal with peak energy. Join your ever-curious anchor as he invites a panoply of guests - the great, the good, the bizarre, and the downright trollsome - along to share their solutions to this crisis. In the end, the shift required might have to be psychological as well as technological. Enjoy the ride, fellow children of the industrial revolution. ­Written & created by Giordano Nanni & Hugo Farrant in a suburban backyard home studio in Melbourne, Australia, ­on Wurundjeri Land. **CREDITS: BEAT: "Intro" by TunnA Beatz http://www.tunnabeatz.com/ Copernicus theme composed by Adrian Sergovich Thanks to Ming Lang http://www.superawesomeparty.com for so incredible acting performance as Wai So Dim, and for again providing the voice of Tony Abbott.

We caught up with Uncle Bob in May'09 while he was in Melbourne and took the opportunity to chat with him and ask him 3 questions: 1. Have you seen any improvements since the Australian Government's Apology (to the Stolen Generations)? 2. What do yo do to maintain your culture; and how can people become part of indigenous culture? 3. In light of the current crises we face - environmental, financial etc - how do you see us progressing into the future? Filmed by Sheryl and Felipe of PluginTV with TheJuiceMedia. The video is split into two parts for YouTube. About Uncle Bob: [from the Kanyini Website: http://www.kanyini.com/subject.html]: Bob Randall was born in 1934 at Middleton Pond on Tempe Station in the Central Desert region of the Northern Territory. He is a member of the Yankunytjatjara people and one of the listed traditional owners of Uluru. His mother, Tanguawa worked as a housemaid at Angus Downs cattle station for Bob's father, station owner, Bill Liddle. At a young age, Bob was taken away from his mother under government policy, whom he never saw again. Bob: 'I was institutionalised because I didn't wear clothes or live in a house. In that natural way of living, there was no need for me to have anything other than what I had.' Bob was sent to the Bungalow Telegraph Station in Alice Springs, which was the receiving home for Indigenous children from Central Australia. Bob: 'They gave me clothes to wear and put me in a house - I didn't like it.' As a young child, Bob was moved north to the Croker Island Reservation in Arnhem Land. He remained at the reservation until he was 20, working at various jobs, including as a carpenter, stockman and crocodile hunter. While still a teenager, he married Amy, a member of the Amadjera Tribe who had also been stolen from her family. In the mid-1960s, the family moved to Adelaide, where Bob completed a welfare residential worker's course. Bob: 'A lot of our kids were being locked up in jail at this stage and I thought I would like to help them.' In 1970, Bob helped establish the Adelaide Community College for Aboriginal people and lectured at the college on Aboriginal cultures. He began to gain recognition for his songwriting in the early 1970s, when his song, 'My Brown Skin Baby [They Took Him Away]' caught the attention of an ABC journalist, David Roberts. This led to the ground-breaking ABC documentary of the same name, which won the Bronze Prize at the Cannes Film Festival and focused national and international attention on the issue of separation. Bob also appeared in the documentary films Buried Country (produced by Film Australia) and Secret Country by John Pilger. His work with Aboriginal communities has taken many forms. He served as the Director of the Northern Australia Legal Aid Service and established Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander centres at the Australian National University, University of Canberra and University of Wollongong. He continues to present his cultural awareness programs at schools and other institutions and in workplaces. His life-long efforts were recognised in 1999 when he was named 'Indigenous Person of the Year' at the 1999 National Aboriginal and Islander Day of Celebration (NAIDOC) awards. In 2004 Bob was inducted in the NT music hall of fame for having written such classic songs as Brown Skin Baby and Red Sun, Black Moon about the Coniston massacre. Bob is also the author of two books: his autobiography "Songman" and a children's book 'Tracker Tjginji" which was part of the 2004 Sydney Writer's Festival.

A Rap News summary of the past week's remarkable series of events. It started off as a slow news day, and a routine update on the state of the Free World Order with NSA Director General Baxter. But then the news broke of startling revelations from the fearless paladin of adversarial journalism, guardian of civil liberties, journalist Glen Greenwald, concerning a shadowy spying program called PRISM. Who is behind these revelations, and how should we view them? How will the Authorities, and the Corporations implicated, respond? Join Robert Foster for a whirlwind summary of the events in this ongoing saga... in Rap News 19 - Written & created by Giordano Nanni & Hugo Farrant in a suburban backyard home-studio in Melbourne, Australia - on Wurundjeri Land. ** SUPPORT the production of new episodes of Juice Rap News, an independent show, by making a donation: ‪‪http://thejuicemedia.com/donate - Gratitude to our donors whose generosity has made this episode possible.
