>From JAPAN- It has been revealed that three of the reactors in Fukushima experienced

accumulate at the site. Soil samples show strontium and cesium more than 60 km away from
the reactors. The IAEA is asking Japan to provide a more transparent report on the nuclear
crisis.
>From SPAIN- The European Commission has proposed a large aid package to help farmers
hurt by the E. Coli outbreak in Germany. The new President of Peru, Ollanta Humala, has
vowed that the poor will share in the countrys wealth. Portugal's Socialist party lost elections
over the weekend. Demonstrations continue in Spain by "The Outraged Ones."
>From CHINA- The Chinese government wants the NATO countries to actively consider the
African Union's roadmap for peace in Libya. A report on the protests against Israel on the
Syrian border that left more than 20 dead.
>From CUBA- Thousands of Israelis protested in Tel aviv against Netanyahu's policies.
Dozens of medical workers in Bahrain were charged with crimes for treating anti-government
protestors. The Crown Prince of Bahrain was quietly visiting President Obama this week.
Obama will be met by protests when he visits Puerto Rico next week. Defense Secretary
Gates suggested extending US troops in Afghanistan beyond 2014. US drone strikes
continue in Pakistan, with at least 33 killed this week.
>From GERMANY- German operators of off-shore wind farms look forward to the German
shutdown of nuclear power plants. The Global Commission on Drug Policy released a report
has called the War on Drugs a failure and suggested a new approach. Occupants of the

There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line -

I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available at
http://radio.mediageek.net
All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to rebroadcast, please notify
me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the last month, please mention the website if
you only air a portion. If you just want to listen and have a slow connection, try the streaming
version- lower sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a high-speed
internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow connection, download the
smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will play swell in any mp3 player application
(RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, iTunes, etc) you have on your computer.
This program will be aired on Friday evening at 6:30pm (PDST) on KZYX/Z Philo CA, you
might be able to stream via < http://www.kzyx.org >
There are several other streams that work better- < http://www.freakradio.org >Freak Radio
Santa Cruz now streams this program on Friday at 9:00am.(PDST)
NEWLY CORRECTED!!! The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from <
feed://radio.indymedia.org/en/podcast?keys=shortwave++
I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I am still wondering
how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into this program weekly- any ideas
are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting this (or listeners) are welcome to donate for
production costs. You can do so through the website. Many thanks to those that have
donated! No Guilt! (maybe a little)

--"I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over
here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6
percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag
follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag."
--Major General Smedley Butler USMC, 1933
