FLASHPOINTS

Today on flashpoints we discuss Obama’s illegal war in Libya. We talk to recall activists in Wisconsin who are fighting a courageous battle against a right wing governor and legislature hell bent on overturning labor rights. We also go to Nigeria to speak with a candidate in their last elections whose media advisor was murdered and he was thrown into jail. All of this running contrary to the media accounts of a free and fair election in Nigeria last April. And finally we investigate one of the secret immigration enforcement programs of the Obama administration known as “S-comm.”
