Today on Flashpoints:
We go live to the Bolivian Capital of La Paz where a growing
grassroots revolt is calling for the Nationalization of the
country's Gas and Oil Industry: Dar Jamail reports on more
death and destruction in Iraq: We'll go back to Port Au Prince
where the US-installed government continues to wipe out the
pro democracy movement with the active support of the UN;
and from somewhere in Exile in New York City, the Knight Report;
5:01 PM PST
The Knight Report: Resistance attacks in Iraq maintain high
casualty rates as the US-supervised regime allocates still
more money for counter-insurgency; an abducted Iraqi governor
is killed in a US shootout; a Sunni political leader is arrested
by US troops; and George W Bush 'dissembles' about an Amnesty
International report,
but malaprops it as a 'disassembly'. (Robert Knight)
