Karen Kwiatkowski: US-Israel, Ukraine, & Police State as Empire Comes Home

from Geopolitics & Empire

Ltc. (ret.) Karen Kwiatkowski discusses the controversial legislative section within the NDAA that would deeply integrate the Israeli military into the American defense acquisition and tech sectors. Kwiatkowski criticizes this as a method to fund foreign military interests without public debate while also warning about the erosion of free speech and the rise of the surveillance state. She examines the shifting dynamics of global power (e.g. Iran, Ukraine), arguing that the U.S. is in a period of imperial decline characterized by a hollowed-out economy and failing proxy wars. Additional topics include the dystopian future of robotic warfare and the use of AI for population control, yet she remains hopeful in the potential for resistance against state overreach.  Watch on BitChute / Brighteon / Rumble / Substack / YouTube *Support Geopolitics & Empire!
