Decades of failed peace talks have led nowhere; but do not lose hope just yet. Join Robert Foster as he attempts to host the first ever Middle East Peace Raps, using rhyme and reason to bring together Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu, and a representative of Hamas. The picture would not be complete however, without a discussion of "America's last taboo" (as Edward Said once referred to it): the USA's role as Israel's best - and only - buddy in the world (Ok, together with Australia). Featuring special cameos from prominent American Jewish scholar, Dr. Norman Finkelstein, and Palestinian rap legends, DAM, this is an episode for the ages. Join us as we bravely (or perhaps stupidly) take on one of the most bitter, divisive and controversial conflicts of our times: Israel & Palestine. Written & created by Giordano Nanni & Hugo Farrant in a suburban backyard home studio in Melbourne, Australia, on Wurundjeri Land. **CREDITS: MUSIC: Main beat: "Look Away" by Profetesa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6mid4axNlg (with additional composition work by Giordano Nanni) MSMBS beat: "Basement Freak" by Profetesa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTcvjj1891k Check out Profetesa Beats here: http://www.profetesa-beats.com Ken Oathcarn beat: "K-Kids" by Able8 and Iz: https://soundcloud.com/able8/kay-keeeds DAM cameo: Massive thanks to Tamer Nafar, Suhell Nafar and Mahmoud Jreri (aka DAM) for appearing in this episode and filming their scene in Ramallah.

Stop the Dakota Access Pipeline before you leave the White House. UPDATE: Looks like Obama remembered after all! 5th Dec 2016: "Dakota Access pipeline: US denies key permit, a win for Standing Rock protesters" https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/dec/04/dakota-access-pipeline-permit-denied-standing-rock?CMP=share_btn_tw "Obama's Legacy Rests on Whether He Stops Dakota Access Pipeline" - Dave Archambault II, Chair of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe: http://www.democracynow.org/2016/10/17/standing_rock_sioux_tribe_chair_we "Obama and Native nations have worked hard over eight years to create a special and healthy relationship during his tenure. Not a perfect relationship, but definitely special. Yet, if he fails to act and kill this Dakota Access Pipeline — a pipeline that directly threatens Native treaty rights and also directly threatens Native children’s health and well-being — all of that work may be for naught." - Gyasi Ross (Blackfeet), Indian Country Today Media Network http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2016/09/24/obamas-legacy-line-dakota-access-pipeline-could-tarnish-his-place-history-165892 * FOLLOW these Facebook Pages to stay up to date with latest all the latest info and be prepared to raise awareness across all social media: Sacred Stone Camp | Red Warrior Camp | Standing Rock Sioux Tribe | Unicorn Riot | West Coast Women Warriors Media Cooperative * CREDITS - Video edited by Giordano - Music by Fletch: White Nile https://soundcloud.com/fletchmusic/white-nile - Thanks to Dawn, Adso, Franklin, Damian & Dave for ace feedback - Footage gratefully borrowed from: Unicorn Riot, DemocracyNow!

'We are here to deal with those who make 'deals' on our behalf!' - Maria Theresa Nera-Lauron April 21, 2010: Forget corporate climate politics in Copenhagen: the World People's Conference on Climate Change and the rights of Mother Earth is currently being held in Cochambamba, Bolivia, hosted by president Evo Morales. Key on the agenda is to press for a global referendum on climate-change and the creation of a Declaration on the Rights of Mother Earth. Maria Theresa Nera-Lauron passionately proposes a manifesto during the International Meeting on Climate Crisis and Alternative Visions of Civil Society. Maria goes on to say how we should unite grassroots movements around the globe in order to bring about climate justice. Panel: International Meeting on the Climate Crisis and Alternative Visions of Civil Society from Latin America, Asia, Africa and Europe For more information, visit http://envivocmpcc.org.bo http://www.democracynow.org http://www.earthcycles.net https://twitter.com/boliviaun Stay tuned for more videos from the conference!
