Dictatorship in Portugal

Portugal cancels democracy and essentially declares an EU dictatorship and it is not even reported in the liberal press.

This shows just how far things have come.

It seems that apart from Ambrose Evans Pritchard, myself and the trio of Don deBar, Mark Sleboda and Eric Draitser are the only ones to have noticed.

Portuguese Dictatorship, Left and Right in Anti-Democratic Europe, and the War in Syria

Eric Draitser of StopImperialism.org appears on CPR Sunday (October 25, 2015) with security analyst Mark Sleboda and journalist/broadcaster Don DeBar. 

Eric, Mark and Don discuss the election results in Portugal and the anti-democratic actions of the Portuguese president who has refused to recognize the results. 

They also discuss the rise of the far left and new right in Europe, and what this means for European politics and organizing. 

The conversation also touches on the latest developments in the war in Syria, and other regional issues. 

All this and much more in this hour-long weekly conversation
