In our latest scrappy episode, the Green & Red Gang segues from its this week in radical history discussion of the Christmas Bombings of 1972 to a comparison of the way that the U.S. fought, and holds responsibility for, the brutal wars in Vietnam and Gaza. We also talk about the latest United Nations Conference of Parties on the climate crisis (COP28). Held in a notorious petrostate, the United Arab Emirates, 200 countries agreed to begin a phase out of fossil fuels by 2050. also raises the issue of climate activists being targeted with lawsuits, RICO charges and jail time in the Global North, while land and climate defenders in the Global South face torture and murder.
