In this episode, American journalist Chris Hedges argues that the United States is exhibiting the classic symptoms of a declining empire, driven by unchecked militarism and strategic overreach.
He discusses the war with Iran, the shifting balance of power in West Asia, growing domestic opposition to US support for Israel, and the wider geopolitical and economic consequences of the conflict.
Hedges contends that recent events have accelerated the transition toward a more multipolar world and fundamentally altered the region's strategic landscape.
