Colonial Outcasts

We're on Patreon now if you want extra content: https://www.patreon.com/ColonialOutcasts So, the situation in Southern Lebanon and Northern Israel is escalating and Cyprus is getting dragged in. I personally don’t think a wider war will kick off this weekend, but Israel is no longer a rational actor. We’ve already talked about what that will look like if it happens in a previous episode so today we’re going to try something different. Let's start geopolitically micro and go macro. We’ll begin with this Israel/Hezbollah situation and bring Cyprus into it. We’ll use that as a demonstration of the US's political quagmire, expand and draw parallels to Ukraine which will most likely end in a frozen conflict and a Russian "ugly victory," then talk about the overall loss of US soft power to BRICS and discuss, if we have time, Saudi getting off the Petro Dollar.
