This week's show features stories from NHK World Radio Japan, Radio Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba, and Sputnik Radio. From JAPAN- People in Japan observed the 4th anniversary of the Fukushima nuclear power plant devastation- almost a quarter of a million people still live in temporary housing and radioactive waste continues to accumulate and leak into the Pacific Ocean. An NHK poll of survivors found that 65% are frustrated by delays in reconstruction efforts, and 83% believe that there will be little improvement in the next 12 months. TEPCO, the operators of the Fukushima plant, say that this week there is a 30 fold increase in the level of radioactive material in the local groundwater. The US has imposed more sanctions on pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine, and gifted Ukrainian forces with $75 million worth of drones and armored vehicles. From GERMANY- On Monday Ukrainian President Poroshenko admitted that the separatists had removed heavy weapons in accordance with the ceasefire. Next week 3000 US infantry forces will be deployed to eastern Europe to train forces. On Monday Eurozone finance ministers warned Greece to cease delaying talks on loans and debts. On Tuesday the Greek government said the country had never been fully compensated by Germany for its WW2 Nazi occupation. On Wednesday German officials denied owing any compensation to Greece, while Greeks want to seize properties owned by the German government to pay reparation. A solar powered airplane took off in a an effort to fly around the world. From CUBA- US President Obama declared the Venezuelan government a national security threat, which President Maduro rejected and linked with a foiled coup attempt in February. US weapons manufacturers continue to dominate global sales, a full third of the market share, with Saudi Arabia replacing India as the top consumer. The EU condemned the Israeli government for demolishing EU financed shelters in east Jerusalem. The President of Colombia joined thousands of citizens in a "march for life" in defense of the country's peace negotiations with FARC rebels From RUSSIA- An interview with Jason Pack, a Middle East expert from Cambridge University, about how the NATO destruction of Libya and its leader Gaddafi led to the creation of the so-called Islamic State. He asserts that the subsequent beheadings are to goad western powers to intervene, which will in turn increase the size and range of IS forces.
There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line - http://www.campusprogress.org/soundvision/780/big-stories-shortwaves
I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available at http://radio.mediageek.net
All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to rebroadcast, please notify me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the last month, please mention the website if you only air a portion. If you just want to listen and have a slow connection, try the streaming version- lower sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a high-speed internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow connection, download the smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will play swell in any mp3 player application (RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, iTunes, etc) you have on your computer. TIME SLOT on KZYX! This program will be aired on Sunday afternoon at 4pm (PST) on KZYX/Z Philo CA, you might be able to stream via < http://www.kzyx.org >
I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I am still wondering how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into this program weekly- any ideas are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting this (or listeners) are welcome to donate for production costs. You can do so through the website. Many thanks to those that have donated! No Guilt!

Dan Roberts "Look around. Oil companies guzzle down the billions in profits. Billionaires pay a lower tax rate than their secretaries, and Wall Street CEOs, the same ones the direct our economy and destroyed millions of jobs still strut around Congress, no shame, demanding favors, and acting like we should thank them. Does anyone here have a problem with that?" -- Elizabeth Warren
