War on Iran: Washington’s systemic breakdown and strategic failure – James Webb

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to James Webb, former senior foreign policy adviser to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and US Marine Corps veteran. He discusses how the Trump administration’s war on Iran has harmed America’s reputation around the world, his disgust at the assassination of Ayatollah Khamenei by Israel to drag the US further into the war, the longstanding desire for a war against Iran secured through Israel lobby donations, the systemic breakdown of the US political system shown by the war, US foreign policy clearly reflecting Israel’s interests rather than the interests of the American people, the coming changing of the guard in the Democratic and Republican Party to replace pro-war politicians, how the war harms US allies, the threat to the position of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency, and much more.
