Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: 'The world is SLEEPWALKING into the potential use of NUCLEAR WEAPONS in the war on Iran.' 'I think the diplomatic instrument for the war on Iran is moribund because we have no diplomatic instrument. We have Witkoff and Kushner, who are making money. That's about the size of it. I don't know what we're trying to do other than affect by bombing and missiles what we couldn't affect any other way, and it's not going to work. It's simply not going to work... Particularly when you have the depth of China🇨🇳, the world's largest economy, on the other side, and I would say also the depth of the world's most accomplished military right now, to include its defence-industrial base, Russia🇷🇺, on your side. This is unparalleled, in terms of its potential for going much wider, much deeper, much more profoundly, maybe even to nuclear weapons use. And everyone seems to be sleepwalking into it.' —Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff at the US State Department Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: 'Iran's ULTIMATE LEVERAGE is its nuclear programme, any ground campaign by Trump to destroy it would be DISASTROUS.' 'The reason Iran has strategic headway over anything Donald Trump does is twofold. Ultimately, it’s the nuclear programme and the Strait of Hormuz. The Omani foreign minister categorically stated that the real problem in the region is Israel, not Iran. I think he’s right. Oman holds a key to the continued control of the Strait of Hormuz, such as it is. And that is their channel, and we are trying to strong-arm Oman into letting us use exclusively that channel, the one Oman has closest to its territory, and thereby negating a lot of Iran’s leeway with regard to the Strait of Hormuz. But the ultimate leeway, the ultimate instrument here is what you just suggested, their nuclear programme. And what’s laughable about that, and sad about it, is that that’s what Donald Trump started out on, and that’s what Donald Trump said was his principal focus. Well, he’s lost complete focus on that now, unless he’s planning on putting land forces on the ground and scouring up their nuclear programme as best he can, and that would be disastrous. I don’t see any way he’s going to affect that. So Iran remains in the catbird seat, and they have Russia and China on their side too, and I think China is ultimately on their side, which means they have the number one economy in the world on their side.' —Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff at the US State Department Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: ‘The world has FORGOTTEN about the Palestinians. That’s fundamentally EVIL. Israel is leading the way in bringing back 20th Century horrors.’ ‘Everyone has forgotten about the Palestinians, and that's what the Israelis want and that's what Donald Trump wants. That's what we want, apparently, as an administration. We do not want anybody to remember the Palestinians as they disappear into that dark night underground under rubble, to be soon turned into whatever it is Jared Kushner and his boys have planned for them. But we've all forgotten about that. And that is fundamentally evil that we have done that. This is not the equivalent of Hitler's Holocaust, but it's very close. And if it keeps on at the present rate, and it really is 250,000–300,000 Palestinians under that rubble, and I think Ralph Nader's right about that. I think it is. This could match anything that's happened in the last century…the things that have happened that were so heinous that we thought we had left behind and built a body of law and rules to negate its coming back. It’s coming back with a vengeance, and Israel's leading the way.’ —Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff at the US State Department Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: 'China🇨🇳 doesn't want a DIRECT WAR with the US🇺🇸, which would derail their victories in the overall competition.' 'I think the Chinese in particular are very, very concerned about where the empire is right now because they know, as Ricardo Alarcón told me one time about Cuba, a dying elephant can thrash a lot of grass. And the Chinese don't want their grass thrashed. They're doing well, they're winning the overall competition in the world—economic, cultural, military, you name it, they're winning. They don't want that to be derailed, and a war with the United States, an in-your-face war with the United States, would do that. They'd win. They would ultimately win. But it would be a Pyrrhic victory in many respects, given their progress right now. So it's a difficult thing for other people in the world to deal with. 60% of the world, 60% of the GDP hates our guts. And they would have an audience, if you will, immediately if they took us on. But they don't want to because they're winning. And if they're winning, why should they want to derail that to a certain extent by taking us on directly? They're going to have to if we persist in this kind of strategy. But I think they're crafty enough to figure out a way to deal with this otherwise, and they will do that.' —Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff at the US State Department Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: ‘The US🇺🇸 is FIGHTING China🇨🇳 THROUGH Iran.’ ‘We are in fact revealing some of the dark reality behind our strategy [with the war on Iran]…and that is China, the number one economy in the world. There is no question about that anymore. It is the number one economy in the world in almost every indicator you want to look at. I think the globalists, the neoconservatives, and others of their ilk in America, in the empire, are fighting China, and they're doing it on two very vivid fronts right now: Ukraine through Russia, and in Southwest Asia directly, because that is a place where China is not going to give up. It's not going to give up on its Belt and Road Initiative. It's not going to give up on Iran. So we are not just fighting Iran, we are fighting China. And some people think purposefully so, and have that as the strategy they believe is being implemented, however imperfectly, by Donald Trump.’ —Col. Lawrence Wilkerson , former Chief of Staff at the State Department, on the latest episode of Going Underground Watch the full interview in the quoted post below 👇

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: US🇺🇸 military-industrial complex companies FALSIFY data on their weaponry's effectiveness 'Raytheon, at that time, rigged the test so that the missile was going to act like it had hit the incoming missile. And that was the real talk of the day among soldiers and others. And that was that we aren’t testing these things appropriately. They are not as effective as the contractors are saying, and we’re not proving that they’re not effective because the influence of the contractor on the Defence Department is so significant and on the Congress too, that they get away with it. They get away with falsifying tests. And this included a whole range of missiles, not just the PAC-2 and PAC-3. It included other missiles that we were talking about, for example, being a part of a new kind of Star Wars programme, and hitting ballistic missiles. In other words, you’re hitting a speeding bullet with a speeding bullet. And the only way we saw the contractors demonstrating that this was possible was cheating. They cheated with the telemetry data that they provided to the people on the ground, shooting the ballistic missile alternative, the deterrent. They cheated by creating a nose cone on the ballistic missile that actually attracted the killer missile coming up. And we were full of conversation about that.' —Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff at the US State Department Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇

And it's not just any blockade, it is an economic, financial, commercial blockade, and now an energy blockade. And this blockade is not being imposed by any country. It is being imposed by the mightiest power in the world.’

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: 'Pete Hegseth has turned the US🇺🇸 Armed Forces into a MERCENARY ARMY, no thinking soldier knows what they've been fighting for in Iran & post-9/11 wars.' 'I think any cogent member of the US Armed Forces — and there are quite a few who aren’t cogent, I’ll admit that, but anyone who thinks at all knows that there is no decipherable purpose behind the wars we’re conducting and have been conducting since 9/11... Other than the contractors like Lockheed Martin making incredible wealth off of them, and others associated with it, like the Congress making incredible durations of their time in Congress, because of the money they take from the defence complex. There is no one out there who is a thinking soldier, sailor, airman, Marine, coast guardsman, whatever, who knows why the hell they’re doing what they’re doing. And that is increasingly the case. And it’s survivable, it’s a situation that can’t be changed or won’t be changed easily because we have made quite sure that we now have a mercenary military, and Hegseth, in fact, has ensured that we have a mercenary military. It is not just that. It is also 11 to 12% mental category 4, they can’t even read their name on a guard roster. Another 10 to 20% are Christian nationalists in the military, in order to fight for Jesus and all manner of other reasons that Hegseth is making sure come to dominate the armed forces of the United States. These people are not fighting for God and country. They’re not even fighting for national security. They’re fighting for Donald Trump, to them, in many cases, he is God, he is Jesus.' —Col.

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: 'Iran could test a NUCLEAR WEAPON, and the US may not even know the test happened.' 'The North Koreans tested a nuclear weapon, and we didn’t even know they had tested. We got a readout from Geneva and the seismic centre there. We finally detected the second North Korean test. It’s not infallible that you’re going to detect the test, and Iran could have already made the decision and could be working underground, could have already matched warhead to missile, and be ready to go whenever they need to go. Or it could be pregnant, as it were, and ready to happen at any moment they decide. Bibi might be contemplating using a nuclear weapon on them. I think that’s the main purpose that the Iranians might have made a decision to do otherwise than their Fatwa against building nuclear weapons.' —Col.

🇷🇺🇺🇦Former State Department Official James Carden: ‘Washington’s neocons and Europe’s elites want a resounding defeat of Russia. A lot of them want to see the DISSOLUTION of Russia as a country, and they want REGIME CHANGE. They would be very happy to see Putin gone, and I think that's the ultimate goal of a lot of these Europeans and neoconservatives. The European elite, led by Merz and the soon-to-be departed Starmer, and Macron, are absolutely every bit as war hungry as our neoconservatives. Any hint of diplomacy, any hint of a settlement, they are the first people to stand up and object and call it appeasement, and call people who are advocating for an end to this thing puppets of the Kremlin. I think that's wrong, and I think that's dangerous. Unfortunately, Donald Trump and the people around him are squarely in that camp.’ Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇

Economist Richard Werner revealed that the IMF deliberately manufactured the Asian Financial Crisis and bankrupted Thailand🇹🇭, to force them to sell off their national industries to foreign oligarchs for bargain basement prices. The IMF is the economic warfare arm of Washington. Crises are manufactured for Western oligarchs to expand their market share and concentrate wealth in their hands.

CMSGT. Dennis Fritz on possible Israeli FALSE FLAG attacks against Gulf States to cause escalation against Iran: ‘I believe that some of those attacks on GCC countries may have been done by Israel, in particular Mossad. I really do believe that…Iran didn't take credit for some of those attacks. Based on past history, based on some of the things I've seen in the Pentagon and some of our cooperation with Israel, I do think some of those attacks were possibly done by Israeli intelligence agencies.’ Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇

Why is China🇨🇳 now more globally popular than the USA🇺🇸? While the US spent trillions on bombing and occupying most of the world, here’s what China spent its trillions on in just Africa: 🇰🇪 The Mombasa–Nairobi Standard Gauge Railway was Kenya's largest infrastructure project since independence. 🇪🇹🇩🇯 The Addis Ababa–Djibouti Railway was the first electrified transnational railway in Africa, linking Ethiopia to the sea in around 10 hours instead of several days by road. 🇪🇹 The Addis Ababa Light Rail became sub-Saharan Africa's first modern urban light rail system. 🇩🇿 Algeria's Western Mining Railway is the largest infrastructure project ever undertaken by a Chinese company in Algeria. 🇩🇿 The PK330 Bridge on that railway is Africa's longest heavy-haul railway bridge. 🇰🇪 The Port of Mombasa expansion created East Africa's largest deep-water container terminal. 🇦🇴 The Benguela Railway is the second-longest railway built by a Chinese company in Africa. 🇹🇿 The Kigamboni Bridge was the first cable-stayed bridge in East and Central Africa. 🇪🇹 The African Union Headquarters in Addis Ababa, built and financed by China, remains the largest aid project China has ever completed in Africa. 🇩🇯 Doraleh Multipurpose Port was East Africa’s first fully integrated modern deep-water port. 🇰🇪 The Nairobi Expressway is Kenya’s first elevated expressway and the country’s largest toll road project. 🇪🇹 The Koysha Hydropower Project is set to become Ethiopia’s second-largest hydroelectric power station, generating over 2,000 MW. 🇿🇲🇹🇿 The TAZARA Railway was the largest foreign aid project China had ever undertaken when it was built and remains one of the longest railways in sub-Saharan Africa. 🇳🇬 Chinese companies have built more standard-gauge railway in Nigeria than had existed in the country’s previous century of modern rail development. 🇬🇭 The Bui Hydroelectric Dam is Ghana’s second-largest hydroelectric dam and nearly doubled the country’s hydroelectric capacity when completed. 🇨🇬 The Brazzaville Corniche Road is one of the largest urban transport projects in the Republic of the Congo’s history. 🇦🇴 Chinese companies carried out one of the largest post-war reconstruction programmes in African history after Angola’s civil war, rebuilding thousands of kilometres of roads, railways and public infrastructure. 🇪🇬 The Suez Economic and Trade Cooperation Zone is one of the largest Chinese industrial parks outside China. And across the continent, Chinese companies have helped build or upgrade: -Nearly 100,000 km of highways -More than 10,000 km of railways -Around 100 ports -Around 1,000 bridges -66,000 km of power transmission lines -Around 120 GW of installed electricity generation capacity Turns out if you spend money on actually helping build countries rather than destroying them, the global population tends to like you more! Who would have thought?! Not the circus of daft neocon clowns in Washington, clearly.
