Prof. Robert Pape reveals Trump-s Iran escalation plan, the likelihood of the use of nukes has doubled

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Robert Pape, professor of political science at the University of Chicago, and founder of the Chicago Project on Security and Threats. He discusses the rise of violent populism in the United States and Americans increasingly turning on each other, the legacy media’s deliberate omission of the facts he has found about the new middle and upper class of violent populists in the United States, why Trump’s political survival is at risk because of the war on Iran, the Iran war escalation trap that has resulted in it spreading to Saudi Arabia and Yemen, Trump’s plan for escalation against Iran, why the odds of the use of a nuclear weapon against Iran have doubled, the normalization of political violence in the United States and the impacts it will have both at home and abroad, what could cause a mutiny in the US armed forces, skyrocketing economic inequality, and much more.
