  • I Kraine U Kraine we all just Scream Kraine.
    Mar 9 2022

     War has returned to Europe. Arms deals, lackluster diplomacy, and above all a failed capitalist model in Eastern Europe have ignited into a conflagration that is threatening the world. Two anti-war activists give their take on the war and its causes and describe its impact in the United States and Europe.   Recording respectively from Corpus Christie, Tx and Paris, France, Jason and Matthew return to AFOC to discuss the Vladimir Putin's attack on Ukraine.

    Correction: Only three elected representatives from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation condemned the war, not the whole party.
