Fmr CIA analyst Larry Johnson and Col Lawrence Wilkerson discuss the Israeli hoax that is setting the pretext for renewed strikes as Trump signals a return to full-scale military action is coming and fast. Iran has blown open the plot and the region is on maximum alert for another round of war.
Description:
Danny Haiphong speaks with Col. Lawrence Wilkerson about a sharp escalation across multiple theaters: Russian and North Korean munitions striking targets around Kiev, and Iranian forces engaging US naval assets.
Wilkerson places the strikes in the wider collapse of proxy-war assumptions—how Moscow’s firepower, Pyongyang’s industrial support, and Tehran’s regional posture together pressure Washington’s strategy and expose the limits of escalation management.
They also unpack what this means for US ships in contested waters, risk of wider war framing (“WW3”), and why diplomatic off-ramps keep shrinking as kinetic facts on the ground outrun official narratives.
