Guest: Jason Wilson, Guardian columnist & journalist

*Originally posted August 21, 2017

By popular demand from our generous Radio War Nerd subscribers, we're reposting a free unlocked version of our interview with Jason Wilson of the Guardian on what he personally witnessed and reported at the Nazi march in Charlottesville; why it's a real problem; and how it compares to the Oregon Standoff in January 2016, when armed mostly-Mormon anti-government radicals seized federal land and became a cause-celebre for right-wing militias. Wilson has been tracking the growth of the US far-right ever since, and he talks with us about the surprising numbers, organizational strength and strategies of American Nazis and far-right militias today...

Afterwards, the Nerd and Ames discuss the recent spate of Islamic State-inspired terror attacks in Spain, Finland and Surgut in western Siberia.
