DESCRIPTION:TODAY 1-2 pm on KPFA, Mike Ruppert's 2/21 talk at Fort Mason (edited).  
 Hear Mike outline the crucial role that drug money plays as the cash flow 
 for the world economy.  He predicts a "summer of hell" for heroin now that 
 Afghanistan's poppy fields have been replanted (US went in and put a stop 
 to Taliban's outlawing of poppy growing just in time for November planting 
 season ""The markets are in trouble, gotta get that money in the 
 banks.").\n\n"Guns and Butter: the Economics of Politics", by KPFA’s 
 Kellia Ramares and Bonnie Faulkner, will air a new program on Monday, Feb. 
 25 between 1 and 2 pm PST, during the fund drive.  --If you can pledge a 
 donation to KPFA during that time,  Guns & Butter will get a boost in the 
 struggle for programming airtime.  \n\nIt would be great if the show could 
 be on regularly, and although lots of emails and phone calls requesting 
 more of Guns and Butter have gone in to KPFA, nothing catches the attention 
 of the powers that be like the ability  to raise funds, especially with 
 Pacifica in such financial  distress.  So please tell others to listen also 
 and to consider a pledge.\n\nThe new Feb. 25th show will feature excerpts 
 from the talk that Mike Ruppert is going to give in SF on 2/21.  Ruppert 
 was the first guest on Guns & Butter, where he expressed a conviction that 
 the CIA had foreknowledge of the 9-11 attack.  Since then he has been 
 presenting a case for this around the US and Canada, drawing large crowds 
 and stirring much interest. \n\nKellia and Bonnie will have video tapes of 
 a similar talk Ruppert gave in Portland, available to listeners for $100 
 pledges.  They ask anyone planning to pledge that amount during the drive, 
 to do so during "Guns & Butter."  (The video includes remarks by Reps. 
 Cynthia  McKinney and Barbara Lee.)  Additionally, a 2-CD set of the first 
 six  "Guns and Butter" programs will be available for a $75 pledge;  
 Ruppert video and CDs together for $150.  Kellia says "Guns and  Butter" is 
 the only Pacifica program she knows about where the  "unsolved crime" 
 questions about 9-11 are being followed. \n\nNot in Northern or Central 
 California? Listen to KPFA online:

 and Butter:\nhttp://www.rise4news.net/GNB.html\n\n"Guns & Butter" 
 investigates the relationships among capitalism, militarism and politics. 
 Maintaining a progressive perspective in the aftermath of the September 
 11th attacks, "Guns & Butter: The Economics of Politics" reports on who 
 wins and who loses when the economic resources of civil society are 
 diverted toward global corporatization, war, and the furtherance of a 
 national security state.\n\n(See the website for previous 
 programs.)\n------------------------\n\n
