Full Program	LISTEN TO FULL PROGRAM
Part 1	We begin with the President’s address today to the annual AIPAC conference where the members of the Israel lobby were told the president has Israel’s back and he won’t hesitate to use force, although Obama warned, “there’s been too much loose talk about a war with Iran”. Professor of International Affairs at Harvard University, Stephen Walt joins us. He is the co-author of “The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy.”
Part 2	Then we speak with the Russian journalist Masha Gessen about today’s election in Moscow of Vladimir Putin, which comes as no surprise, but what is surprising is how long it has taken the West to wake up to who this small-minded KGB thug is, and how in such a short time, he has destroyed years of progress and has made Russia a threat to her own people and the world. Masha Gessen is the author of a new book, “The Man Without a Face: The Unlikely Rise of Vladimir Putin”.
Part 3	Then finally we speak with one of the founding members of Occupy SEC, which is a working group within Occupy Wall Street of former finance professionals, lawyers and concerned citizens who are lobbying the SEC for stronger regulations and oversight of federally-backstopped banks, and the prohibition of risky activities within them. Caitlin Kline, a former credit derivatives trader, joins us.
