But Alyona points out that even though they are covering the shootings and protests there, they are missing the bigger picture that this isn't an isolated incident.

Unmoderated Tag: Politics Rating: No Votes Hits: 70 Comments: 0 Islamophobia's Role in Foreign Policy Islamophobia's Role in Foreign Policy At this point, we all know well what President Obama's foreign policy looks like. While the rhetoric may be softer than his predecessors, and while's he's ended the war in Iraq, and torture and closed black site prisons, he's expanded drone strikes and become dependent on targeted killing. Shadow wars have erased the meaning of borders even more. He expanded the war in Afghanistan before deciding to plan on a close. He got us involved in a military conflict in Libya without seeking Congressional approval. And on Iran, he's said that a military option is not off the table. And yet according to Mitt Romney, he's soft and leading from behind. Then again, Mitt Romney needs to say something, because the truth is, he probably wouldn't handle things much differently. And how much of America's foreign policy is shaped by Islamophobia? Alyona discusses with Deepa Kumar, an associate professor of Media Studies and Middle East studies at Rutgers University and author of the book Islamophobia and the Politics of Empire and Michael Cohen, a columnist for Foreign Policy's Election 2012 channel and a fellow at the Century Foundation.

Police were once again firing rubber bullets and pepper spray, even at members of the media. Then, we'll host a panel discussion with Michael Cohen and Deepa Kumar. How big of a role does Islamophobia play in our foreign policy? And we'll take a look at more disturbing allegations of a cover up at a hospital in Afghanistan that some say had Auschwitz-like conditions.

But while they are falling all over themselves about a symbolic vote in the senate, they are completely ignoring the Audit the Fed bill that passed in the house.

Unmoderated Tag: Politics Rating: No Votes Hits: 54 Comments: 0 Wilkerson: Wilkerson: "Most Mediocre Group of Legislators" We've got a number of foreign policy stories to discuss tonight. Perhaps most notably, 5 new weapons deals the Pentagon is telling Congress they'd like to make. Let's just say they could give us a clue on our policy towards Syria, Iran, and the Asia-Pacific. So how much does the election even matter then? Meanwhile, retired Generals are warning Congress once again that our nuclear arsenal is too big, too expensive, and out of date. And the Senate Intelligence Committee adopted a dozen anti-leak measures yesterday, but to be honest, they're not as bad as we expected. Alyona discusses with Lawrence Wilkerson, retired United States Army Colonel and former chief of staff to Colin Powell.

Unmoderated Tag: Politics Rating: No Votes Hits: 42 Comments: 0 Student Loan Debt Bringing down the Economy Student Loan Debt Bringing down the Economy Last night, President Obama gave a speech to the National Urban League. He touted various policies of the administration, things like healthcare, policies specifically targeted towards African Americans, and even brought up the topic of gun violence in the wake of the shooting in Aurora, Colorado. And he also had a lot to say about education. The problem is, what do you do with all of those people that are already saddled with student loan debt? And why isn't the administration making it easier to refinance, like they're doing for mortgages? Especially in the wake of a new report from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau just this week that likened student loan practices to sub-prime mortgage lending, and warned about student loans keeping the economy down. Alyona talks to Ana Kasparian, Co-host of The Young Turks. Twitter: http://twitter.com/#!/TheAlyonaShow Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/TheAlyonaShow Jan 20, 2013 9:17 PM

Alright it's Thursday, which means that it's time to talk some tech. First, a report on the Music Industry's global anti-piracy strategy was leaked and put up on Torrent Freak. And let's just say it tells us a thing or two about the MegaUpload case. Then, something good actually came of out Washington DC. The Police Chief reminded officers that they actually have to respect citizens constructional rights. And can Twitter predict when people will get sick? And if so, what's next? Global weather trends? Maybe even Armageddon? Here to give us some details on all of it and Talk Tech To Me is RT Web Producer Andrew Blake.

Between voter ID laws, and the higher number of signatures that a 3rd party needs to get on the ballot... something smells fishy.

From Syria to our nuclear arsenal to anti-leak measures put forward by the Senate Intelligence Committee. Then, Ana Kasparian from the Young Turks joins us in studio today to talk about the student loan crisis. A new report tells us that not only is student loan debt slowing economic recovery, but it may be more tied to the sub-prime mortgage market than you think. And it's Thursday which means RT's Andrew Blake will be here to Talk Tech To Me. A leaked report may vindicate MegaUpload, and the chief of DC Policeis reminding officers that they actually have to respect the constitution.

Unmoderated Tag: Politics Rating: No Votes Hits: 50 Comments: 0 Msm: Stop the Frack Attack Msm: Stop the Frack Attack Today the media was still obsessed with Romney's trip across the pond. They focused on that instead of covering a massive anti fracking protest planned for this weekend. But it really isn't that surprising considering they have ignored other recent fracking headlines, so we tell you what's up, and what the mainstream media decided to miss.

Unmoderated Tag: Politics Rating: No Votes Hits: 56 Comments: 0 Kucinich: Dem Leaders Just Limousine Liberals? Kucinich: Dem Leaders Just Limousine Liberals? There's only about a week left until Congress goes on a summer recess, and there are a few notable things that have, and haven't been done. As we mentioned yesterday, the House overwhelmingly passed a bill to Audit the Fed, but the Democratic leadership, isn't exactly on board. It's seven days before recess and yet still no jobs bill. And was the symbolic tax vote this week, a lot more important than people wants to let on? And a few US foreign policy decisions that haven't exactly played out as planned. Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, just to name a few. Alyona discusses with U.S. Congressman Dennis Kucinich.
