FLASHPOINTS

Today on Flashpoints, NATO says it can bomb civilians in Libya as long as it calls them “military targets.” Japan’s government works to control and whitewash bad nuclear news. Then, we take a look at Arizona’s infamous Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the brutal enforcer of draconian laws targeting the undocumented. Then, we talk with Kevin Kamps about the state of the battle to end nuclear power in the United States. Finally, we continue our discussion of the hacker’s collective known as Anonymous and their particular brand of Cyber Disobedience with an internet activism expert.
