Israel's war against Iran & Hezbollah and Russia's victory in Eastern Ukraine - Col. Wilkerson

In this episode of The Source, we speak with Lawrence Wilkerson, a retired Army colonel and former chief of staff to former Secretary of State Colin Powell, about Israel's new war with Iran and Hezbollah. We explore the geopolitical implications of this war and whether Israel can emerge militarily and strategically victorious now that it has opened up a new front with Iran and Hezbollah in Lebanon. Finally, we examine the latest news on the war in Ukraine, particularly Russia's success in capturing the strategically important city of Vuhledar in eastern Ukraine.
