By now many people have heard of #Hamas, but very few know much about their history, genealogy, ideology, and aims. In this highlight from Episode 20 of "Strange Bedfellows" I briefly lay out the historical background of the Palestinian liberation movement so that we may better understand of whom and what we are speaking when we say, “Hamas.” It begins with the Nazis. Yes, the Nazis. As the Führer hid in his bunker and prepared for his suicide, he penned his last political will and testament. His last written words were a plea to the world to continue to “resist mercilessly the poisoner of all nations, international Jewry,” a plea most thoroughly and systematically heeded by the Islamic Jihadists and one of their primary movements, Ḥarakat al-Muqāwamah al-ʾIslāmiyyah, the Islamic Resistance Movement known as Hamas. To fully grasp the ideology that drives Hamas and the Palestinian liberation movement today, one must first understand the history that gave rise to it -- and specifically, Nazi collaborator Haj Amin al-Husseini, the tie that binds Hitler to Hamas. Haj Amin al-Husseini came to power through a British act of appeasement after he had been tried in absentia and found guilty of inciting riots in #Palestine in 1920; the riots arose in response to the first proposal for a two-state solution outlined by the Faisal-Weizmann Agreement of January 1919. Attempting to calm the Arab population, British mandate governor Herbert Samuel appointed him Mufti of Jerusalem on 8 May 1921. Among the newly appointed Mufti’s first actions was a declaration of #jihad against the British and the #Jews. In March 1933 he paid his first official visit to the new Nazi German General Consul Heinrich Wolff in Jerusalem. Once again wanted by the British for inciting the Arab Revolt of 1936 – 1939, al-Husseini fled Palestine for #Iraq. After inciting an overthrow of the Iraqi government and murderous pogroms that resulted in the slaughter of hundreds of Jews, the Mufti found safe harbor in Berlin, where he was handsomely rewarded by the #Nazis with money, a lavish lifestyle, and armed guards. He was employed by Nazi Germany making propaganda radio broadcasts for the Arab world. As early as January 1941 al-Husseini was recruiting Bosnian Muslims to serve in the Waffen SS and in SS killing units. The largest of the Mufti’s Muslim killing units was the infamous 13th Handschar Division of 21,065 men. As a result of his murderous actions in service to the Nazis, al-Husseini was charged with war crimes -- yet, he managed to evade prosecution at #Nuremberg and flee, aided by British intelligence. In June 1946 he turned up in Cairo, where, as noted above, the Muslim Brotherhood gave him a hero’s welcome. That same year the Mufti took in his second cousin Yasser #Arafat as his protégé; he brought in a former Nazi commando officer to teach Arafat “the fine points of guerilla warfare.” Some scholars argue that “al-Husseini was himself most likely the true founder of the al-Fatah,… Arafat’s terror cell,… the nucleus of the PLO.” (currently the ruling authority in the West Bank.) Hamas emerged immediately after the outbreak of the Palestinians’ First Intifada against Israel as a militant Palestinian wing of the Muslim Brotherhood on 9 December 1987. The Movement was founded by Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and his comrades Dr. Abdel Aziz al-Rantisi and Mahmoud al-Zahar. Yassin grew up in awe of Haj Amin al-Husseini. He joined the Muslim Brotherhood in 1957 and in 1973 established the Islamic Congress in #Gaza to expand the influence of the Brotherhood; in 1978 he was among the founders of the Islamic University of Gaza. Yassin and his cohorts embraced the Nazis’ fundamental view that the Jews are “the dirtiest and meanest of all races, defiling the most sanctified and honored spot on earth,” making “no distinctions between Jews, Zionists, and Israelis.” As in all ideologies driven by Jew hatred, from Hitler to Hamas, where the Jew is the enemy, #Judaism is the enemy. Nazi ideology is alive and well today in parts of the Arab world, and especially in Gaza, where Hamas rules (for now). In this highlight from Episode 20 of "Strange Bedfellows" (with guest Tyler McConnell), we give a brief history lesson of the Strangest Bedfellows of all time: the Nazis and the Arabs. We'll even show you the most popular chain of clothing stores in Gaza City today: "Hitler 1" and "Hitler 2"-- where fashionable young Palestinian #fascists buy "Hitler Chic" apparel.

(Our #JFK60 coverage continues tonight at 9 Eastern with an encore presentation of this October 2022 Maverick News broadcast.) 30 years after the death of Jim Garrison , we remember the former New Orleans District Attorney who inspired Kevin Costner's character in Oliver Stone's 1992 opus, "#JFK." We talk to historian Jim DiEugenio (screenplay writer for Oliver Stone's new documentary series "JFK Revisited" and author of the companion book) about how the work of Jim Garrison paved the way for three generations of JFK Assassination researchers, including himself. We look back at the life of Jim Garrison, hear from both his critics and his supporters, and show you a rare excerpt from Garrison's final interview recorded shortly before his death on October 21, 1992.

This week I dropped in on "The Backstory" with Rachel Blevins (Sputnik Radio) to discuss 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. #Kennedy Jr.'s latest poll numbers that show him gaining on President #Biden and former president Donald #Trump. #RFK is surging forward with an impressive 20-24% -- and in a three-way-race beats both Trump and Biden with young #GenZ voters in new polling. We also talked about #RFKJr's policies on the #Israel/#Palestine conflict, the war in #Gaza, his proposed economic policies, and the 60th anniversary of the #JFKAssassination today. #JFK60.

There’s nothing democratic about the Democratic Party, and our guest tonight knows that from first-hand experience. On Episode 17 of "Strange Bedfellows" we spoke to Elizabeth Lee Beck, the attorney who sued the Democratic National Committee in 2016 in a class-action lawsuit alleging that the #DNC defrauded individual #Bernie Sanders supporters by rigging the primaries for Hillary #Clinton. (The case was dismissed in 2017.) In addition to the #DNCFraud lawsuit, Beck has also sued former President Donald #Trump twice (in 2011 and 2015) and questioned Trump in court depositions. We will ask her thoughts on Trump’s current legal battles. Earlier this year, Beck sued Twitter (now X) for breach of contract over the suspension of her account and that of her husband, attorney Jared Beck, four years ago. When Elon Musk bought Twitter last year, he pledged to restore all previously banned accounts that hadn’t violated Twitter’s Terms of Service. When the Becks’ accounts were not restored as promised, they took Elon to court. In their complaint, the Becks assert that they were suspended for “engaging in political speech antagonistic to the establishment Democratic Party interests.” We will get the latest from Elizabeth Beck on where that lawsuit currently stands, and discuss the future of #FreeSpeech on X and other social media platforms as the 2024 election season heats up. On “Strange Bedfellows” we talk to fascinating people from all sides of the political spectrum, and always find points of agreement. A great conversation is always guaranteed!

Earlier this month, #Canada stunned the world when the nation's Parliament honored a Ukrainian former Nazi Waffen-SS soldier and gave him two standing ovations, in the presence of #Ukraine's president #Zelensky. How has the #NaziGate scandal's ripple effect impacted NATO's commitment to the Ukraine war effort? Are the Western allies starting to realize that funding and arming Nazis isn't a good look, especially during an election year in the United States? Will Canadian Prime Minister Justin #Trudeau be forced to resign over the scandal? I discussed this with Regis Tremblay (a former resident of Canada who now lives in Crimea) on a recent episode of his podcast.

Ever since #Hamas attacked #Israel last week, followed by a declaration of #war and retaliatory airstrikes on Gaza, this emotional conflict has divided the entire world. It seems everyone is expected to pick a side. Team Israel or Team #Palestine? But war is not a football game. And if the Middle East erupts into widespread war, it's #WWIII. One side has nuclear weapons; the other doesn't. Hardly a fair fight. At Maverick News, we don't take that very real danger lightly. We endeavor to stay above the fray and just bring you the news. The only side we pick in this war is #peace.

Two weeks after a #Republican revolt ousted House Speaker McCarthy over #Ukraine war spending, the United States of America is still without a Speaker of the House. This is truly an unprecedented moment in our history. The lack of progress by Ukraine to push Russian forces back has created an opening for some members in Congress to question why the U.S. should keep sending money. A flank of Republicans, led by former President Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner in the 2024 race for the White House, is increasingly opposed to sending more money overseas. That faction was pivotal in getting $6 billion in Ukraine funding stripped from the last-minute 45-day funding bill that prevented a government shutdown in early October. Likewise, some European allies, including #Poland, have begun to pull back on their support for the war, citing the need to prioritize their own defenses. On Sunday after the temporary spending bill was passed, President Joe Biden warned that the cuts could hit Ukraine at a critical time. “We cannot under any circumstances allow America’s support for Ukraine to be interrupted,” Biden said, urging Congress to negotiate an aid package as soon as possible. The tide of American public opinion is turning against the war in Ukraine, and the never-ending flow of money and weapons to fund a losing war at a time when Americans are struggling to keep up with inflation and a cost of living crisis at home. Recent polls show that President #Biden is in trouble, swiftly losing support among #Democrats while #Trump edges a lead of 3-5%. Then there's the wild card -- #Kennedy, an independent antiwar candidate who has pledged to negotiate #peace between Ukraine and #Russia as a top priority of his administration. #Trump has also promised to end the war "within 24 hours" if elected next year. Clearly, this is a message voters want to hear. In this election year, has the unpopular war in Ukraine become a metaphorical stone around Biden's neck, dragging him down to defeat?

In this compelling highlight from Episode 15 of "Strange Bedfellows," I asked Caleb Maupin his thoughts on the #NaziGate scandal that has rocked #Canada (and the world) this week. Last Friday, the Canadian Parliament gave not one, but two standing ovations to a man named Yaroslav Hunka and honored him for his service in #WWII "fighting against the Russians." Only later did it apparently occur to all 338 members of Parliament that the #Nazis fought the Russians in the Second World War. Since then, more information has emerged -- including Hunka's own published memoir -- proving that #Hunka was a member of the notorious Waffen-SS, Galicia Division. The unit was known to have committed some of the most horrific atrocities of the #Holocaust. By definition, Yaroslav Hunka is a war criminal. So, what's he doing in Canada, eh? We discuss that, and other troubling signs of rising #fascism in the Great White North, including the "Save The Children Convoy" which is rolling across Canada as we speak. In a video that emerged from the #Convoy this week, a participant can be heard screaming about the #genocide of the #Holodomor, encouraging violence against the "#communists who will put us all into slavery." The Holodomor was a 1932 famine in Soviet #Ukraine that many historians say was deliberately caused by Joseph #Stalin to starve the Ukrainian people. But it remains a topic of hot debate and controversy among historians even today -- except in Canada, where the powerful Ukrainian nationalist lobby has forbidden critical discussion of the Holodomor. Caleb and I dig into the real history of the Holodomor here: was it Nazi propaganda? An anti-#communist hoax? A big lie? The Holodomor is often used today by Ukrainian nationalists to justify our current involvement in the war with #Russia. Caleb Maupin gives us the other side of the Holodomor narrative - the communist perspective -- as an author, communist historian, and journalist for RT television (Russia). There are indeed two sides to every story. We will hear them both on this episode of "Strange Bedfellows."

This week on "Strange Bedfellows" it's a pleasure to welcome to the show Tyler Nixon, longtime personal attorney for Roger Stone (and frequent guest on "The Stone Zone" podcast). He is also a well-known radio talk show host in Denver. Colorado. Nixon is an Army Infantry Veteran, #Conservative, Constitutionalist, Advocate, Writer, Technologist, Critical Historian, and a self-described "extremist in the defense of liberty." Tyler Nixon attended Georgetown University and The University of Virginia Law School, served in the U.S. Army's Berlin Brigade and did a tour of combat duty in the first Iraq war. Later, he served as a staff assistant to former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, worked on the presidential transition team for President George W. #Bush in 2001, and on #Republican Ron Paul's presidential campaign in 2008. On "Strange Bedfellows," we bring together political opposites to find points of agreement. Tyler and I are from different political backgrounds and parties, but we have much in common. We both have a strong #libertarian streak, and are devotees of Dr. Ron Paul. Tyler recently told Roger Stone on "The Stone Zone" he wants to "abolish the FBI, the IRS, and the CIA." I'm down with THAT 100%! Now we're cookin'. Tell me more, Tyler... He's served time for possession of marijuana and ecstasy and is now a drug policy reform advocate. So we certainly have that mission in common, too. Tell me more, Tyler... He will tell us more...LOTS more...tonight at 9 PM Eastern. A fascinating conversation is always guaranteed on "Strange Bedfellows." Tune in!

In this excerpt from Episode 15 of "Strange Bedfellows," I talked to Caleb Maupin: author, reporter for RT television (#Russia), #communist historian, political activist, and founder of the Center for Political Innovation (CPI). We go back in time to revisit the Red Scare of the 1950's, Sen. Joseph McCarthy's witch hunts, the CIA's MK-ULTRA mind control program, and anti-communist brainwashing; how we did it, and most importantly, WHY we did it. Using propaganda and brainwashing techniques we learned from Nazi scientists who were imported into the United States after World War Two, the U.S. and our Western allies joined with the #Nazis in their long crusade against #communism. Are we the baddies? And why are we doing this again, 30 years after the Cold War supposedly ended? Now that we are in Red Scare 3.0, we see many of the old anti-communist tropes coming back into use again, employed by our governments, politicians, the press, and on social media to brainwash Americans en masse into supporting World War Three with #Russia, #China, #NorthKorea, and other socialist nations around the world. Maupin says "social media is the most sophisticated mind control mechanism ever invented," and explains how it works to incite people against each other. How do we undo 75 years of mass brainwashing of an unwitting, unsuspecting populace?

In this highlight from Episode 15 of "Strange Bedfellows" I talked with Caleb Maupin about his latest book,“Letter to Bob Avakian.” The book is an open letter to Avakian in which Maupin both praises and critiques the leader of a small #communist sect in the United States. He also reveals some information that explains the organization’s strange activities over the years and ties to French intelligence. We also delved into infiltration of #socialist and communist groups by the FBI during the Cold War, including Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and the Communist Party of the United States (CPUSA).

2024 Democratic Presidential Candidate Robert F. #Kennedy, Jr. released a video Friday teasing a "big announcement" he will be making in Philadelphia October 9th. By all indications, #RFKJr has made up his mind to finally divorce the Democratic Party and continue his run for the White House as either a Third Party or Independent candidate. But which way will he turn? Will he take the #Libertarian boulevard, the #Republican Easy Street, the #GreenParty highway, or the Independent road less traveled?

On September 22, as Ukrainian president #Zelensky was visiting #Canada, a special honor was given in Parliament to a man named Yaroslav Hunka. President #Zelensky -- and all 338 members of the Canadian Parliament -- rose to their feet and honored this 98 year-old Ukrainian with not one, but two standing ovations. Little did they know he was a Nazi collaborator in #WWII (or so they said). As it turns out, Hunka served with pride in the dreaded #Waffen-SS, #Galicia division -- a unit known for its especially savage brutality in war crimes of the #Holocaust. How did this former Nazi find safe haven in Canada all these many decades? How could Prime Minister Justin #Trudeau, and every member of Parliament NOT know his background? Now that the Speaker of the House of Commons has resigned, who will be next? And what will be the ultimate impact of this incident in the future of this war between #Ukraine and #Russia? We unpack that and more in this #No2NATONo2War panel discussion with George Galloway, Patrick Henningsen, and Niall McCrae. Original air date in the U.K.: September 28, 2023.

Yaroslav Hunka, the 98 year-old Ukrainian Nazi who was honored by the Canadian Parliament and Ukrainian President #Zelensky with not one, but two standing ovations last week, published his manifesto online back in 2011. This is Hunka's Mein Kampf -- the story of his struggle against the #communists; the evil Red Russians; the detested Poles, and his Jewish neighbors in #Ukraine. I discovered Hunka's memoir of his youthful years learning how to kill from his heroes in the notorious UPA, Stepan #Bandera's OUN-B, welcoming the German #Nazis "with joy" when they occupied his village in 1941, and his pride in joining the #Waffen-SS, #Galicia Division. On this edition of #No2NATONo2War with George Galloway, I read some shocking excerpts from Hunka's memoir aloud.

2024 presidential candidate Robert F. #Kennedy, Jr. says that if elected, he would restore the Fairness Doctrine and update it for the internet media age. In this highlight from "Strange Bedfellows" Episode 14, Rick and I discussed the Fairness Doctrine -- an American law in effect from 1928-1986 requiring the media to present both sides of every story. We argue that since the Fairness Doctrine was abolished by President #Reagan, journalism has fallen into the predictable trap of partisan propaganda rather than actual news. In theory, we agree with #RFKJr that the Fairness Doctrine needs a return, but how would it work in the 21st Century when most people get their news from independent media online? The internet news media isn't regulated by the FCC, so how could the government possibly enforce it without veering into #censorship? We discuss all that and more here.
