A very lucid, well thought out discussion. Completely free of the usual rhetorical sensationalism that, sadly, characterizes the modern mass media.

[@radicalantitheist]

wow i did not know tariq ali had his own show, read a bunch of his books and even got him to autograph one of them.
p.s. needs much higher volume.

[@boabysands123]

Yes volume level is several notches (dB) below what is optimal.

To much yelling and interrupting from these two I think I'll go watch Bill O'Reilly, he never yells and interrupts like this.
