    Today's podcast: On the minds and conscience of Canadians. Questions continue about actions by former federal minister of defence Harjit Sajjan and the fate of Afghan interpreters who went into battle with the CAF and saved Canadian lives but who were left behind facing death by the Taliban during the panicked/chaotic evacuation. Guest: Major Mark Campbell. PPCLI. Major Campbell was a career soldier in the Canadian army who lost both legs to an IED in Afghanistan and who previously shared with us that Afghan interpreters saved Canadian lives and were the first targets for insurgents during firefights. One such interpreter who served with Major Campbell is featured in our next segment. During a live broadcast in August of 2021, as panic engulfed Kabul and thousands of Afghans, including CAF interpreters desperately attempted to escape capture and death by the Taliban by securing places of Canadian evacuation flights we broadcast a live interview with two of the interpreters. One had been able to flee the country without assistance and joined us from Dallas, TX, but still was denied entry to Canada. The other remained with his family somewhere near Kabul desperately praying they would receive the call from the Canadian government in response to his pleas to Ottawa for evacuation. Guests: "Left behind Alex" who had served with Major Mark Campbell in Afghanistan. Mr. Khan, the on-air name this interpreter permitted us to use. NATO talk in Washington include deliberations on continued weapons/financial support for Ukraine. Meetings in Ukraine also taking place in Europe. Guest: Olexander Scherba, Ukraine Ambassador at Large joining us from Austria. Author: Ukraine vs Darkness. Israel engages in U.S. proposed ceasefire talks with Hamas. Guest: Vivian Bercovici. Former Canadian Ambassador to Israel, from Tel Aviv. --------------------------------------------- Host/Content Producer – Roy Green Technical/Podcast Producer – Tom Craig If you enjoyed the podcast, tell a friend!
