## Resource

In this eye-opening interview, we analyze the current geopolitical landscape and recent high-stakes meetings between the US, Ukraine, and Israel. We explore the intense internal battle within the administration: geopolitical realists pushing for de-escalation versus the military-industrial complex advocating for endless war in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. The discussion covers the harsh strategic realities of the Ukraine conflict, Iran's growing leverage, the fragility of US military supply chains, and the dangerous push to drag the US into broader conflicts with Russia, Iran, and China. Discover why a strategic exit, rather than escalation, is the only viable path to avoid a global disaster. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
