On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Prof. Joseph Nye, former US assistant secretary of defense for international security affairs and author of ‘A Life in the American Century’. He discusses Israel’s onslaught against Gaza and argues that US soft power is being damaged by support for Israel, the prospect of Donald Trump returning to power, and he gets into a tense exchange with Afshin Rattansi on the Ukraine proxy war, the US’ unilateral sanctions which are declining in effectiveness, US policy towards Syria, and much more.
