On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff to US Secretary of State Colin Powell (2002-2005). He discusses his reaction to Donald Trump announcing his plan to displace all of the Palestinians of Gaza during his meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his belief that Trump’s motive is to fulfil Jared Kushner’s real estate dream, the possibility of US troops being deployed in Gaza and why it would be ‘the greatest mistake’ Washington could make, rumors that National Security Advisor Mike Waltz will be fired for giving Donald Trump false information, Trump’s current opposition to a war with Iran which Israel has been advocating for, his belief that Israel is the US’ poodle rather than the US being Israel’s poodle, whether Donald Trump can actually force Egypt and Jordan to accept displaced Palestinians from Gaza, the gutting and axing of USAID and the organization’s role in regime change operations today, the National Endowment for Democracy’s role as the new arm of the CIA, Trump’s desire to acquire the rare earth metals of Ukraine and how a negotiated end to the Russia-NATO proxy war may look like, how Donald Trump may go about negotiating an unprecedented nuclear arms reduction treaty with the nuclear powers of the world, and much more.
