Today on Flashpoints we return to Obama’s illegal war in Libya with a special report on the ground by Mahdi Nazemroaya of the Center for Research on Globalization. We also take a look at the freedom flotilla 2 that will be leaving Athens Greece to call attention to the inhumane blockade of the Palestinian people in Gaza by the Israeli government. Finally we investigate two ongoing nuclear crises in the United States: one in Nebraska with a nuclear powerplant surrounded by floodwaters and the second with wildfires raging through New Mexico and approaching a dumping site full of plutonium waste.
