THE SUNDAY WIRE broadcasts LIVE with host Patrick Henningsen covering the top news stories at home and internationally. In the first hour Patrick looks back over a month on the road in the Middle East and what challenges lay ahead for 21WIRE. Early on in the first hour we welcome a new guest to the show, Ken Stone, a longtime antiwar activist and member of the Syria Solidarity Movement, to discuss his recent trip to Syria and Palmyra and what lies ahead for that country. Afterwards, we're joined by author and 21WIRE special contributor, Jay Dyer, from JaysAnalysis for an in-depth discussion about 'Soft Power' and the epic millennial battle between traditionalism and modernism playing out in the Middle East and beyond. In the final overdrive segment we'll try to connect with our riving 'democracy correspondent' Basil Valentine for an update on the US election pantomime. SHOUT! POLL: Is the US Really a ‘Democracy’ or an Autocracy? VOTE HERE. Strap yourselves in and lower the blast shield - this is your brave new world... *WARNING THIS EPISODE CONTAINS EXPLICIT LANGUAGE AND ADULT THEMES* The Sunday Wire with Patrick Henningsen broadcasts LIVE on Alternate Current Radio SUNDAY 5pm-8pm GMT, 12pm-3pm EST, 9am-12pm PST at http://alternatecurrentradio.com and http://thesundaywire.com.
