BlackFive

I did Frank's show today with some very interesting guests.

Lee Smith from the Wall Street Journal joins guest host Jim Hanson to analyze the death of Hezbollah leader Sayyid Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah.  Then, Jeremy Scahill from The Nation discusses a story he has been covering about the CIA’s use of contractors in the war on terrorism.  Scahill later weighs in on the successes and failures of the controversial contracting company, Blackwater.  Finally, Bill Roggio of The Long War Journal updates us on what is playing out behind the scenes among the terrorist leadership in the Afghanistan-Pakistan war.

It was entertaining talking w/ Jeremy Scahill who is obviously on the other side of the fence politically but well-informed and I thought the segments with him went well.
