Abby and Robbie Martin discuss the LAX shooting that happened last month and the implications it could have for others peacefully protesting TSA policies. They talk about willful blindness preventing people from accepting reality when it comes the extent of government criminality. Since the phrase ‘conspiracy theory’ has become weaponized against those questioning government propaganda, the term ‘State Crimes Against Democracy’ should be used when describing secret acts committed by government elements, such as financial looting with the banking industry.

On this edition of Media Roots Radio, Abby and Robbie Martin discuss Syria and the politicization of al-Qaeda to perpetuate the War on Terror. Did the US government finally hit an existential ‘wall’ of geopolitics where Russia is standing up to the US about the Syrian invasion and other Middle East incursions? The discussion of Islamic extremists being involved with the rebels in Syria brings the discussion to dissecting the myth of ‘al Qaeda’ being used to generate fear and continuous war.
