DESCRIPTION:Imperialist war spreads to Pakistan\nOn May 8, Pakistan’s government 
 declared a "full-scale offensive" against Islamic fighters in the country.  
 Pakistani troops are using military jets, attack helicopters, tanks and 
 ground forces to eliminate “extremists” and “anti-state elements”.  
 This has caused a mass exodus of civilians.  Meanwhile, militants have 
 fought back, delivering heavy blows to the military by ambushing convoys, 
 firing mortars and waging street fights.\n\nWhat role is the US playing?  
 Frustrated by its lack of victory in neighboring Afghanistan after 8 years, 
 the US is hoping to cut off any aid given to the Afghan resistance forces 
 coming from neighboring Pakistan. First the Bush and now the Obama 
 administration had pushed Pakistan relentlessly to end negotiations with 
 tribal forces and to attack them.  Join us for a talk and discussion on the 
 newly termed “Af-Pak” war and on Washington’s plans to expand their 
 “war on terror” to the Pakistani side of the 
 border\n\n******************************\nThe struggle against Prop 8 
 continues\nLGBT people around the country await the California Supreme 
 Court ruling on the legality of Proposition 8, which may come any day now.  
 Proposition 8 changed the California constitution to define marriage as 
 only between one man and one woman, halting same-sex marriages in the 
 state.  Join us for an update in the struggle for full LGBT 
 equality.\n\n******************************\nPlus a report back on the 
 demonstration against the bailout at the Bank of America.  Despite getting 
 a generous slice of the bailout pie, Bank of America has no intention to 
 share it with its workforce or with workers who are losing their homes.  
 Hear first-hand accounts from demonstrators who protested the bank bailout 
 at the BofA on May 12.\n
