Kansas City Iraq Vet, Tomas Young, featured in the film Body of War is in the VA hospital, possibly facing abdominal surgery. This week's show starts off with a re-broadcast of an interview he gave Tell Somebody in the fall of 2005.
In the second half of the show, Democracy Now's Denis Moynihan talks about how Amy Goodman, along with Moynihan and a DNow staffer were detained by Canadian authorities as they tried to go to Goodman's speaking engagement in Vancouver. Apparently authorities feared DNow had come to badmouth the Winter Olympics.
