by Phil Taylor the Taylor Report for CIUT
First, the host tackles the Quebec students and recent negotiations. Then, Elias Amare, an authority on Eritrea, explains the last two decades of activity by this major player in African affairs — Eritrea is one of the only countries in the Horn of Africa boasting a recent record of peaceful relations.
Finally, Zafar Bangash returns to discuss the situation in Syria: is it time for the heroes of Washington and Paris to get to work? The tragic massacre in Houla is being interpreted in a partisan fashion in the West. Meanwhile, the US has fallen into its old habit of supporting extremist radicals to topple enemy regimes.
