Vijay Prashad – US-UK cruise missiles fired at Russia, ICC warrant for Netanyahu & Trump's victory

In this episode of The Source, our senior editor Zain Raza talks to historian, journalist and author Vijay Prashad about the underlying causes of Donald Trump's recent election victory in the United States. They also examine Trump's anti-war stance in light of his nominations for the national security apparatus, as well as the impact his presidency would have on Europe. They then turn the discussion to the war in Ukraine by examining the motivations behind why the US recently gave Ukraine the green light to fire long-range ATACMS cruise missiles into Russian territory after years of reluctance. Finally, they discuss the significance of the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, implicating them in war crimes and crimes against humanity.
