Civil War in the UK? Professor David Betz Says It is Coming

from The Long History Short Podcast

On this episode of the Long History Short Podcast, I talk with Dr. David Betz, Professor of War Studies at the University of London, King's College. Professor Betz has made the provocative claim that due to polarization, mass migration, elite fecklessness, two-tiered justice, politicians' contempt for regular people, and other issues, civil war will break out in Great Britain and other European countries in the coming years. If that sounds provocative, give it a listen. I started as a skeptic, but he convinced me. Here's the first of Betz's essays defending his thesis: https://www.militarystrategymagazine.com/article/civil-war-comes-to-the-west/ Here's part two: https://www.militarystrategymagazine.com/article/civil-war-comes-to-the-west-part-ii-strategic-realities/
