Tariq Ali & Alexander Cockburn talk to Laura Flanders about war and taxes

More GRITtv

We’ve had a lot of talk this week about the Left: where is it? Why does the media ignore it? What can we do to rebuild it? And whose fault is any of this? The mainstream media might ignore voices from the Left, but here on GRITtv those are just the voices that matter–and today, for a special feature, we welcome two you may have heard of: Tariq Ali and Alexander Cockburn.

From Tony Blair to Tea Partiers to Thatcherism, Iraq to Pakistan, banks and bankers and campaign donations to the time Obama might have had to make significant change, Tariq and Alexander dissect the conventional wisdom of today on just about every political issue, domestic and global.
