Gaddafi's plan to introduce the Gold Dinar threatened Western monetary dominance. His vision of a united Africa with a common currency aimed to free the continent from Western exploitation. Economic sanctions were imposed to stop him. Despite this, Gaddafi persisted, but covert operations led to his downfall. Libya became unstable, Africa lost a visionary leader, and hopes for economic liberation were dashed. Corruption in governments continues to benefit the few at the expense of many, perpetuating economic injustice globally. Translation: Gaddafi's plan for a new currency challenged the West, leading to sanctions and his downfall. Africa lost a leader, and corruption persists, hindering economic justice.

Afshin Rantansi introduces an episode of *Going Underground* from the UAE, saying that tomorrow Donald Trump is set to host Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, whose kingdom has called out the UK-U.S. EU-armed genocide in Gaza and is refusing to normalize relations with Israel. He also links current events to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and claims that Cy Hirsch, in *The Samson Option*, says Kennedy tried to push Israel to open up its Dimona nuclear weapons reactor for inspection. Rantansi argues that another secret apparatus—Operation Gladio, NATO’s clandestine terrorism network run with the CIA and MI6—was used to stage mass murder atrocities to be blamed on the left, preventing legitimate parties from coming to power in Cold War Europe and opposing Washington imperialism in the Global South, adding that “Gladio never truly ended.” Colonel Roxantana Watkins, a 30-year U.S. Air Force veteran, explains that Operation Gladio ran out of NATO and relied on secret agreements among NATO-aligned organizations to create “stay-behind units.” She says the United States, as a NATO country, also had Gladio units, and she claims that Gladio was used “everywhere,” including Iran before the overthrow of Mossadegh, Korea before the Korean War started, and Vietnam by the French. She says Gladio is a generic term because each country’s program had different names, but Italy did an in-depth study and revealed that its program was called Gladio—leading to the generic reference. Rantansi connects this to Italy’s post-1945 political situation, saying Italy had the largest Communist Party in Europe and that fake atrocities at railway stations were used to discredit the left. Watkins responds by claiming that “communism” became a boogeyman attributed to the Soviet Union and points to declassified CIA documents, including a story about Guatemala, saying labor organizing was often attributed to the left. She adds an account from Italy under Mussolini: she says workers’ rights were abolished, international corporations dominated transactions, and she claims the National Cash Register enabled an intelligence network to identify finances and target people. She says these “tentacles” go deep and are orchestrated around what she calls an “international syndicate” of oligarchs controlling societies to prevent democracy. Discussing the war on Russia via Ukraine, Zelensky, and Western Europe’s behavior, Watkins argues that elites maintain control by preventing societies from becoming democratic. She gives examples to support her framework: she claims Libya’s assassination after Gaddafi defied a central banking system; Venezuela’s overthrow as she describes it; and the murder of Patrice Lumumba in the early 1960s, saying Lumumba sought to use uranium to enrich his own people, and that “Operation Gladio elements” were involved, referencing Otto Skorzeny and Reinhard Gehlen’s German intelligence structures. Rantansi asks how Gladio could relate to Israeli interests rather than only U.S. empire. Watkins claims James Angleton sat at the Mossad desk in the CIA and the Vatican’s desk, and she links her view of Gladio to a “strategy of tension” concept. She says this concept involves creating “left and right” camps to control people, and she claims Israel became part of that strategy of tension, citing the Middle East and also describing Taiwan as a friction point in Asia. She says covert operations were funded “under the table” with drug networks, referencing Chiang Kai-shek and opium trade, and names Paul Helliwell and Castle Bank as part of her account. In part two, Rantansi asks Watkins about the live-streamed assassination of Charlie Kirk and what she thought, asserting an Israeli motive. Watkins says Kirk’s ability to get people to talk to each other threatened the apparatus, and she claims youth movements around the world are central to the “current Gladio,” citing student organizing mechanisms and saying Mossad, MI6, and CIA recruit “foot soldiers” at college age. She adds that unity-building movements have been targeted historically, and she connects this to her view of Trump’s political rise. Rantansi then raises the scale of poverty and government shutdowns, and Watkins argues that funding is cut to prevent people from rising up. She claims planned “targeted radicalizations” and says she was surprised no false flag occurred during the shutdown, comparing this to Venezuela efforts in 2019–2020 that she says failed. She also claims she has tracked “over 400 attempts to overthrow governments” with “90 successful coups.” Rantansi asks about Jeffrey Epstein revelations and whether such exposures could shock the public into overthrowing oligarchic power. Watkins describes Gladio-style operations as needing “grease” and frames blackmail as the grease that keeps the system operating, citing Epstein and alleging similar systems in other countries. She also responds to questions about Israeli influence on Trump’s administration by saying Israel comes up repeatedly in her Gladio research, including claims about Israel being involved in Reagan-era covert actions, diamond trade, and as a “cutout,” and she says it is “very troubling” to have Israeli support for politicians because of “a lot of pull” in funding.

The speaker argues that when a politician claims support, they are really loyal to a vast international banking dynasty—a Masonic cult with no loyalty to the people whatsoever. This system will offer them gold or lead, and to thrive within it, they must play by its rules. It is not a nation, but the fatherland of a global corporate mafia who rule from behind the veil, the deep state. Their primary jobs are to keep you divided by playing into the left and right paradigm while ensuring that the foreign conquest continues. War is something that they will always agree upon. In other words, you are being used to facilitate and fund their global conquest of other countries. Wars are cleverly marketed and justified by their bought and paid for politicians and their complicit media machine. They fund small terrorist proxy forces which are then attributed to their target nations. Therefore, we have no choice but to invade and install one of our own puppet leaders. And thus now the nation and its riches belong to them. Meanwhile, you’re all distracted, screaming at your own countrymen because they have a different opinion to you so they can ultimately weaken your society and conquer you too. You see divided, are weak, but together, you are strong. The solution is to pull your heads out of your asses, put aside your differences, and realize that you’re all being played, and identify the real threat, the puppet masters who keep you divided.

The discussion centers on allegations that the United States has used or could use domestic and international mechanisms to effect regime change, including through domestic unrest and foreign influence operations. Speaker 0 describes a 2021 Special Operations Command instruction manual, framed as a vision for 2021 and beyond, that purportedly contains instructions and examples on how the military could work with the State Department, intelligence services, and USAID to use race riots to destabilize nations. He points to examples labeled as part of this manual’s guidance for destabilization via combined military-government-civilian efforts. Speaker 1 lays out a model of how revolutions are allegedly structured, starting with a government at the top and support funneled through USAID, the State Department, or other administration entities. He then describes a degree of separation through privatized NGOs, including the National Endowment for Democracy, the International Republican Institute, and similar organizations, with money flowing from entities such as George Soros’s Open Society Foundations through tides and government-funded NGOs like NED. He suggests money ultimately comes from the people, and that demonstrators, youth movements, a sympathetic media, and labor unions contribute to organizing protests. He outlines conditions for regime change: an unpopular incumbent, a semi-automatic regime (not fully autocratic), a united and organized opposition, the ability to quickly frame the voting results as falsified, media amplification of that falsification, an opposition capable of mobilizing thousands, and divisions among coercive forces like the military or police. He asks whether those conditions are present and implies they are. Speaker 2 cites a declassified CIA guide from 1983 aimed at training operatives to organize riots in foreign countries, including using agitators and hiring professional criminals to manipulate mass meetings, with the goal of turning general anger into violence against the regime. The guide describes creating a climate where a few hundred agitators could mobilize tens of thousands, using 200 back channels and 200 human assets to generate a 10,000–20,000 demonstration. It also notes strategies such as setting up job fairs near riots to enlist disaffected workers. He references USAID’s Office of Transition Initiatives (OTI), implying that “transition” is a code for regime change, and cites a 2009 congressional report warning that OTI was a foreign operation aimed at toppling governments through organized political warfare, including mobilizing unions, boycotts, and shutdowns of roads, transportation, hospitals, and schools. Fulton Armstrong’s quote is cited regarding government secrecy surrounding such operations. The speakers conclude by condemning actions conducted in the shadows, destabilizing nations using race wars to achieve political aims, and advocating that the military be involved, arguing these efforts occur without oversight.

David Ben Gurion admitted Zionists stole Palestine, stating that if he were an Arab leader, he would never make peace with Israel because they took the country. He acknowledged the Holocaust but said Palestinians only see the theft of their land. The partition of Palestine and theft of the country would have been called into question for JFK if he'd found out about the Numek Zionist nuclear weapons smuggling operation. Ben Gurion aimed to acquire nuclear weapons, conquer territory, stop the return of refugees, prevent APAC registration, and create a Jewish Zionist one-world government with Jerusalem as its capital. Ben Gurion predicted a one-world system presided over by Jerusalem with an international police force and no war. JFK's vision was of genuine peace for all, not just Americans. The Kennedy presidency was an existential crisis for Israel, and to achieve its goals, JFK had to go. The speaker claims that on 11/22/1963, the CIA, Israel, Zionists, and power elites overthrew the US government. Israeli agent James Jesus Angleton orchestrated JFK's assassination and cover-up for Alan Dulles and David Ben Gurion.

The speaker describes Stepan Bandera and the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists as Nazi-aligned white supremacists who murdered Jews, Poles, and Russians. After World War II, the CIA used the Galen organization to coordinate with the Banderists as a stay-behind force to fight the Soviets, resulting in a violent war until the Soviets gained the upper hand around 1953-1954. Many Banderists were imprisoned or fled to the West, where they were welcomed and maintained connectivity through diaspora funding. After being released from the gulag, they infiltrated Ukrainian society. The CIA continued to coordinate the resurrection of Banderist ideology to weaken the Soviet Union, which succeeded in 1991. In 2014, the CIA ousted the Ukrainian president and replaced him with someone the US could support, resulting in the Banderists taking control. The speaker claims the CIA has been supporting Banderist groups since 1945.

Speaker 0 says that Al-Qaeda and ISIS are “working for the Western countries” that claim to fear and loathe them, citing that French, Belgian, British, and German people suffered at the hands of ISIS and Al-Qaeda. Speaker 0 claims those governments covertly assisted ISIS and Al-Qaeda to power, including in Syria, and then recognized and welcomed the ISIS-al-Qaeda leadership in Syria. Speaker 0 references the German government welcoming “the ISIS al-Qaeda chief,” “al-Julani,” and calling him “Mr. President,” and also mentions having seen him holding up severed heads. Speaker 0 argues that Western governments’ “ambivalence” toward ISIS and Al-Qaeda is “well charted.” Speaker 0 then makes an allegation, blaming Macron, stating: “Macron were behind the ISIS-Al Qaeda super growth,” which Speaker 0 says has enabled them to infiltrate thousands of soldiers in an attempt to overthrow the government of Mali.

The ongoing wars are fueled by peace agreements that are not meant to be upheld. The conflict in Ukraine started with a coup backed by the US, leading to violations of peace agreements. NATO's expansion and manipulation of the US dollar are used as tools for control. The overthrow of Gaddafi was to prevent a currency competition with the US dollar. Ultimately, these actions benefit corporations like BlackRock and Vanguard.

Afshin Ratansi hosts *Going Underground* from the UAE, saying that tomorrow Donald Trump will host Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, while Ratansi claims Gaza has been called out as genocide by the UK, U.S., and EU and that Saudi Arabia will not normalize relations with Israel. Ratansi connects this to the anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s assassination, referencing Charlie Hirsch’s *Samson Option* and claiming Kennedy tried to push Israel to open its Dimona nuclear weapons reactor for inspection while a separate clandestine apparatus, Operation Gladio, was already operating. Ratansi describes Gladio as NATO’s clandestine terrorism network run with the CIA and MI6, allegedly used to stage mass-murder atrocities blamed on the left to block legitimate parties in Cold War Europe and oppose Washington in the Global South, and claims Gladio “never truly ended.” Ratansi introduces Colonel Roxantana Watkins, a 30-year U.S. Air Force veteran who says she traced Cold War covert structures and believes they still shape the world. Watkins explains that Operation Gladio ran out of NATO and required NATO-aligned organizations to sign secret agreements to create stay-behind units in each country. She says the U.S. is a NATO country too and asks where its Gladio units were. She claims Gladio was used “everywhere,” including Iran before the overthrow of Mossadegh, Korea before the Korean War, and Vietnam “by the French.” Watkins says Gladio is a generic term and that actual programs had different names in each country—for example, Portugal’s “Jinter Press” and Turkey’s “Gray Wolves,” with Italy being the only country she says conducted an in-depth study that revealed the program existed under the name “Gladio.” Ratansi says Italy had the largest Communist Party in Europe after 1945 and that fake atrocities at railway stations discredited the left. Watkins agrees and says communism became a “boogeyman” attributed to the Soviet Union, while declassified CIA documents she cites discuss labor efforts assigned to the left. She says she stopped using “left and right” because it has no use in modern language, describing a model in which workers’ rights were abolished under Mussolini while labor organizing occurred alongside international corporations. She claims the National Cash Register took over transactions in Italy during Mussolini, and that James Jesus Angleton—father of CIA official James Angleton—was tied to the franchise owner, which she says enabled an intelligence network to control finances. Watkins says the system is orchestrated around “the international syndicate” of oligarchs controlling societies so they are not democratic. She links this to assassinations and overthrows when leaders become nationalistic and rely on resources to enrich their own people, citing Omar Gaddafi’s assassination and Venezuela’s situation. She then narrates the case of Patrice Lumumba in the early 1960s Congo, alleging Eisenhower and Nixon refused to meet him and that Belgium-linked arrangements would block Congo from enriching itself, leading Lumumba to refuse the deal and prompting his murder by “Operation Gladio Elements” controlled by Otto Skorzeny under Reinhard Gehlen’s German intelligence, the BND. Watkins argues that any prime minister or president “that stands up for their country” becomes a target. In response to whether Gladio aligned with Israeli interests, Watkins claims James Angleton sat at the Mossad desk in the CIA and at the Vatican’s desk, asserting that a “strategy of tension” governs Gladio, tracing it to the late 1800s with the Fabian Society and the idea of creating “left and right” camps to control people. She claims Israel is a strategy of tension concept controlling the Middle East, and says Taiwan was a pivotal friction point in Asia. Watkins says covert operations are funded with drug networks, citing Chiang Kai-shek in Taiwan as controlling over 80% of the opium trade in Asia, and describes Paul Helliwell’s alleged role in creating Castle Bank and using front companies for property purchases in Central Florida. She also claims the UK MI6 helped set up Colombia as part of the “crystal triangle” and that London set up Israel. Ratansi asks Watkins about Watkins’ reaction to the live-streamed assassination of Charlie Kirk. Watkins says Kirk’s persona encouraged people to talk to each other across divisions and that the apparatus “cannot have” that. She says the current Gladio rests on student youth movements worldwide and references “Optor in Serbia,” student movements, and George Soros funding, claiming college-age levels include recruiting foot soldiers for Mossad, MI6, and CIA. She compares it to FBI assassinating Fred Hampton after he built the “Rainbow Coalition,” saying authorities do not want people to come together. Ratansi raises poverty and opposition to Israel, including polls after Gaza and a SNAP pause during a government shutdown, and asks what happens if people rebel. Watkins responds that she argues the “42 million” figure is exaggerated and that the strategy includes cutting off funding so people rise up, using both conditions for radicals to evolve and “planned, targeted radicalizations.” She says during the shutdown she was surprised there was not a false flag to generate opposition, and claims Venezuela had multiple false-flag-style attempts in 2019 and 2020 that failed. Watkins says she tracked over 400 attempts to overthrow governments and documented 90 successful coups. Ratansi asks about the Jeffrey Epstein revelations and whether they would shock the public enough to overthrow oligarchic power. Watkins claims blackmail is “the grease” that makes operations work and says people like Jeffrey Epstein were part of enabling leverage, describing blackmail networks operating globally and citing examples involving underage videos and suicides after exposure. Ratansi asks whether Israeli power over the Trump administration is as strong as during the Biden administration. Watkins says Trump publicly called out Mary Madelson as funding various efforts and that Israel comes up frequently in Gladio research. She cites claims that the IDF created a one-year school for drug-network managers in Latin America and that Israel acted as a “cutout” for Reagan-era missile and weapons transfers, as well as involvement related to diamond mining in Africa despite Israel not owning diamond mines. She concludes that it is “very troubling” anytime Israeli support backs a politician, saying it implies significant pull over funding. Ratansi ends the show with condolences for people affected by what he calls ongoing UK-U.S. “armed genocide” across Palestine, and says the program will return on Saturday.

Speaker 0 says Western European populations support what he calls a “suicidal war on Russia through Ukraine” because elites in Zelensky’s Ukraine use corruption to maintain control over their population, rather than protecting countries from Russia or the Soviet Union. He adds that the elites aim to protect societies from becoming democratic. Speaker 1 agrees and frames the pattern as one where leaders who prioritize national interest are eliminated. He cites Libya as an example, saying Muammar Gaddafi cared about Libyans and Africans, but was assassinated for defying the central banking system and relying on gold with his own oil. He then says Venezuela today follows a similar pattern, where becoming nationalist and enriching one’s people leads to being killed or overthrown. Speaker 1 describes the mechanism as “Gladio networks” and intelligence agencies deploying operations against leaders. He recounts the Congo in the early 1960s after independence from Belgium, when Patrice Lumumba was elected prime minister. He says Lumumba approached the United States with a proposal to give the uranium that had been allocated to Belgium, but to use the portion going to Belgium to enrich Congolese people. He states that President Dwight D. Eisenhower would not meet with Lumumba and that Vice President Richard Nixon would not meet with him; Lumumba instead met with the secretary of state, who told him that he could not cut out Belgium and that Congo would receive the same arrangement as before, providing essentially nothing for building schools and hospitals. Speaker 1 says Lumumba then refused the deal, and that the Soviet Union would have been interested in uranium. Speaker 1 concludes that Lumumba was murdered by Operation Gladio elements controlled by Otto Skorzeny, described as Nazi, under Reinhard Gehlen’s German intelligence, the BND. He ends by saying that any prime minister or president who “stands up for their country” is targeted by an “international syndicate” seeking to control the world’s resources.

The speaker lays out a narrative in which Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency, is intricately connected to the CIA and to a longtime insider, James Angleton. The claim is that Mossad and Angleton formed an alliance “forever,” with Angleton described as “the mole” who was aligned with Mossad. In 1960, Angleton was the head of the CIA’s Directorate of Foreign Intelligence, and he is depicted as the person who was always searching for a Russian mole. The speaker asserts that Angleton was effectively the Russian mole because of his close friendship with Mossad, to the extent that he would share information with Mossad and Mossad would not relay it to Russia. The narrative then moves to 1963, referencing David Ben-Gurion, the Israeli prime minister, arguing that Israel decided to kill John F. Kennedy. The speaker quotes Ben-Gurion as saying that Kennedy’s threats of inspections of “demonic” (interpreted as a mispronunciation or coded term for dangerous issues) were unacceptable, and that Ben-Gurion said, “It’s none of his frigging business. I don’t wanna hear anymore from Kennedy. You kill him.” According to the speaker, Ben-Gurion issued this order to Mossad and then resigned so he could not be held responsible for it. The implication is that Mossad then went to Angleton, implying that the Kennedy assassination was not a CIA job, but was “greased by the CIA” because Angleton had his connections at Mossad. From there, the speaker claims that Corsican sharpshooters were hired by Mossad for the Kennedy assassination as part of a larger operation at Dealey Plaza, including the escape. The speaker asserts that public suspicion has misattributed the blame to the mob, Lyndon Johnson, or Castro, but maintains that it was Israel that carried it out. The stated motive is tied to Israel’s desire to avoid further inspections related to their nuclear program. The speaker claims this is connected to Israel’s nuclear and biological capabilities and asserts that plutonium was stolen from the United States to support their program. In summary, the speaker contends that the Kennedy assassination was orchestrated not by the CIA alone, but through a coordinated effort involving Mossad, James Angleton, and David Ben-Gurion, with Israel acting to prevent scrutiny of its nuclear activities by eliminating Kennedy, aided by Corsican shooters and a CIA-Mossad alliance.

Men of character build good societies, while those solely focused on money have taken control and harmed many. Some may see this as a conspiracy involving the CIA and Israel's intelligence agency.

The speaker believes those hiding the truth about 9/11 are capable of murder. They claim the U.S. caused Gaddafi's death because Hillary Clinton played a "game." The speaker says they went to Libya during the war with a Biden staffer, a Bush staffer, and a film crew, and hand-carried a letter from Gaddafi offering to resign, but the U.S. wanted him dead. According to the speaker, Gaddafi wanted to unite Africa economically on the gold standard, but the U.S. and Europe wanted control of his oil and sovereign wealth. The speaker took Biden to Libya on their second trip. The speaker feels it is outrageous that people who have never served in the military make money off conflicts while kids are drawn into them and killed.

News at midnight from The Gulf reports a second Iranian drone dispatched to the USS Abraham Lincoln after the first was shot down by Trump's forces, amid global worries that he could be distracted from the Epstein files to start Israel's war on Iran with US money. At midnight also comes news that Seyfal Gaddafi, who could reunite what was once Africa's richest per capita country, Libya, has been killed in his garden by militias and mercenaries with British involvement. Sources say MI6 was deeply involved. Britain was reportedly deeply involved fifteen years ago with France in trying to destroy Africa's richest per capita country because it was a beacon of high living standards and Gaddafi himself was proposing some sort of Gold Dinar system, not to mention that France, according to WikiLeaks papers from 2011, wanted 35% of Libyan black gold. The transcript notes that Seyfal Gaddafi is not being covered in the NATO nations that destroyed Libya and used Gaddafi in horrific ways, allowing slave markets to open there. It states that Seyfal Gaddafi has been writing articles supporting the Palestinians and Arab sovereignty while in hiding, because he was the most popular leader in Libya, across both halves, and could have reunited it. He is described as visiting places around Libya ahead of putative elections that will now, of course, happen because that’s what the colonial powers were desiring. The end of Seyfal Gaddafi is proclaimed. As a reminder of imperial policies, the Epstein file is cited: in the latest 3,000,000 documents, the Department of Justice released an email saying, “I also have friends formerly with MI6 and Mossad willing to help identify stolen assets and get them recovered.” He was described as being involved in trying to get hold of Libyan assets, many of which, of course, have been stolen. The Epstein oligarchs with their depraved alleged cannibalism and mass killing of children have not gone away. While people begin to report repercussions of the Epstein files, the same forces are present, which may explain why the personal lawyer to Donald Trump at the DOJ said, on the release of them, that no one is going to be prosecuted. What this means for Africa, amidst all these global tensions, is tied to the expiry of the START treaty within the next 24 to 48 hours, which would allow unlimited warheads, the end of nuclear inspections, and perhaps a nuclear arms race that has never been seen before on this planet. We will have to wait and see.

Carlene Georgescu, a former high-ranking UN official, shares his experience and perspective on how the United Nations operates and its relationship with global oligarchic power structures. He begins by noting his initial belief in the UN as a fantastic institution capable of advancing welfare and harmony with nature, informed by his background in environmental protection and sustainable development. However, through field experience, he came to see a different reality: the ground truth reveals how the system serves a small, powerful elite rather than universally beneficial aims. Georgescu argues that the UN functions as a platform and bridge for what he calls the world oligarchic system, controlled by Davos-centered interests and aligned with the World Economic Forum’s agenda, particularly Agenda 2030. He contends that the organization is effectively indistinguishable from, and subordinate to, the same oligarchs who influence the Club of Rome and other major NGOs. He cites his own observations at meetings where participation by a representative from developing regions was stifled or marginalized, while the discussions prioritized consumption and corporate-friendly outcomes over genuine development. A central claim is that the UN and its related NGOs manipulate language and outcomes to mask aggressive aims. Peace and justice are reframed to justify or enable power and war, while sustainable development often ends up accelerating consumerism. Georgescu reports that many in UN circles pursue easy prestige, perks, and funding rather than principled leadership, describing a culture of political correctness and material incentives that ensure loyalty to the system. He asserts that leaders within UN structures and other NGOs are “employees” of the oligarchs, not independently accountable to their populations. Georgescu emphasizes intense exploitation of natural resources and asserts that most sovereign control over resources is lost to global interests. He gives the example of resource-rich but vulnerable African countries, such as Guinea Conakry, where vast mineral wealth is present but political and economic power is effectively centralized outside local populations. He contends that the same dynamics operate across Europe and beyond, with leaders installed or influenced to serve external interests rather than national sovereignty. A recurring theme is the manipulation of fear to maintain control. He links fear to the acceptance of surveillance, digital devices, and the erosion of personal sovereignty, arguing that fear-based governance underpins health, climate, and security narratives. He critiques the World Health Organization as an NGO that operates without democratic elections, arguing that its leadership is appointed rather than elected. He also criticizes the pandemic response and lockdowns as criminal acts against humanity and accuses the system of pushing transhumanist and post-transhumanist trajectories aimed at replacing human autonomy with robotic control. Georgescu recounts his personal turning point in the Marshall Islands, where he witnessed the environmental and human harm from U.S. nuclear testing. He describes attempts to suppress his UN report on the Marshall Islands mission, which reinforced his decision to exit and resist a system that, in his view, prioritizes oligarchic interests over populations. To end, he asserts that true sovereignty and quality life come from harmony with nature, personal consciousness, and authentic human connection, not from UN-led global governance or NGO-driven agendas. He and his interlocutor stress the need for people to say “no” to the prevailing system and to reclaim political agency, recognizing that fear and manipulation are central tools used to maintain control.

- The speakers present a conspiratorial framing of Libya’s recent history and its global repercussions. They assert, “It’s a Chinese colony at this point,” implying foreign influence over Libya and its trajectory. - They claim that “the West and Hillary blows up Gaddafi,” arguing that those who were aligned with the West retaliated against Muammar Gaddafi. They further state that Gaddafi had “invested everything with the West, came and apologized,” and describe NATO as “the defensive alliance” that “went and just murdered Gaddafi for no reason.” - Gaddafi is portrayed in softened, almost heroic terms: “One’s Gaddafi, you know, the crazy colonel,” but the speakers emphasize that “the point was he was for the people.” They describe him as “a statesman,” noting that “he literally lived in a tent.” - The economic and infrastructural claims are central to their narrative: they say “98% of the state money coming in and oil went to not just his people, Africa,” and that he was “building real infrastructure” with a “whole plan to link up” with Africa. They imply that his policies would have connected Africa regionally rather than remaining separate from the rest of the continent. - They allege that the killing of Gaddafi was part of a broader, destabilizing plan: “they came and killed him,” and as a result, “now all of Africa’s collapsing because they blew up the South Point and the North Point.” They attribute these upheavals to “the globalist deliberately blow[ing] that up for destabilization.” - The discussion turns to population movements: they claim that “the population will be moved here and to Europe as it already is being in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, of course.” The speaker asserts personal certainty about this trend: “I know I see it so, so clearly.”

I outline the speaker’s central claims about George Soros, the CIA, and global political influence. The speaker contends that George Soros has been one of the CIA’s most valuable private assets for over forty years, acting as the civilian, deniable funding arm of American regime-change operations worldwide. Because of this, Soros is not only allowed in the United States but protected there, enabling him to operate with impunity, which the speaker says explains his arrogance and continued influence. The speaker traces a pattern of Soros-backed “color revolutions” starting with Serbia in 2000, refined in Georgia in 2003, Ukraine in 2004, and the Arab Spring in 2011. They assert that logos for USAID, the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), and the Open Society Foundations appear in all these cases, framing Soros as central to these movements. According to the speaker, the Arab Spring served as a trial run for Europe’s migrant crisis. They claim that in 2011 the CIA and Soros turned that playbook on Libya and Syria. Gaddafi allegedly warned in March 2011 that removing him would unleash millions to flood Europe from Africa; eight months later, Gaddafi was dead, Libya descended into chaos, and migrant waves began as predicted. By 2015–2016, the speaker asserts, battle-hardened jihadists and economic migrants were crossing the Mediterranean with iPhones, prepaid cards, and Twitter guides written in Arabic, described as the same social media mobilization tactics used in Kyiv and Tahrir Square. Wayne Madsen is cited as having called this pattern out in 2015, described by the speaker as a deliberate CIA social-engineering operation to fracture Europe from within, applying the same playbook to new targets. The speaker then asserts that the United States has been subject to this strategy from 2020 to the present, pointing to the summer riots of 2020 as an example. The claim continues that Soros’s Open Society Foundations donated at least $33,000,000 to groups that organized and sustained the 2020 riots, and that Soros-backed NGOs provided lawyers, maps, and logistics for the southern border caravans, as well as funding to influence police departments and district attorneys in major cities, effectively helping to elect them. The speaker argues that Soros is implementing the color-revolution playbook “on us now,” with the target being ordinary Americans rather than foreign nations. A historical reference is made to JFK, who allegedly spoke of splintering the CIA after the Bay of Pigs betrayal, a chance JFK did not realize, leaving the world the speaker claims the CIA built. The speaker notes that Hungary, a country of 9 million, has passed Stop Soros laws and expelled his operations, asking why the United States cannot do the same, and suggests finishing what JFK started.

Afshin Ratanzi asks Afshin about his view that Saif al-Islam’s assassination was orchestrated by British and French intelligence using local proxies, and what led to that conclusion. Afshin says he didn’t say it himself, but sources told him it was MI6 with local proxies, naming Blaise Mettruel as head of MI6 and citing the granddaughter of Ukrainian Nazi Konstantin Dobrovsky. He notes hints of French involvement as well, referencing DGSE’s alleged plots to assassinate Burkina Faso leader Ibrahim Traoré and other recent French-backed anti-government activity in Africa, including mentions of Nicolas Lerner. He cites a broader pattern: NATO involvement in Africa, including NATO weapons and Ukrainian mercenaries in Niger, and asserts that the same forces were involved in Libyan events, including the Libyan leader’s funeral and the orchestration of instability. He also points to an Epstein connection, citing a Beverly Hills firm’s letter to Jeffrey Epstein about MI6 and Mossad in relation to “disaster capitalism” of Libyan resources, which he says made Libya the richest per capita in Africa before intervention. He mentions Russia’s role and that Russia, Brazil, and India abstained at the UN Security Council in 2011 during the NATO invasion. Regarding Libya’s current state, Afshin emphasizes continuing imperialist Western power that aims to “keep Africa down” and exploit resources. He recalls Muammar Gaddafi’s plan to de-dollarize Africa with a gold-based currency and Saif al-Islam’s intention to rejuvenate those ideas, suggesting the country’s prospects darkened after Saif’s death. He notes an Israeli former intelligence adviser who worked with General Haftar, a CIA asset, and says unity for Libya remains uncertain. He mentions potential Libyan brothers and awaits investigation results into Saif al-Islam’s killing, warning that gunmen may be part of a larger plot. Looking ahead, Afshin says the World Government Summit occurred in Dubai; he mentions the BRICS possibility for Libya’s future, including multipolarity and a move away from Western dominance. He references Mali and Burkina Faso as examples of shifting dynamics in the Sahel and suggests BRICS, China, Russia, and India could influence a future trajectory for Africa. He asserts Saif al-Islam was the most popular Libyan leader, with a funeral attended by about a million people, and notes Western media coverage of his funeral was minimal. He posits that Saif al-Islam’s vision for Libya included restoring pre-2011 gains in education, health, and food security, potentially rebuilding Libya as a wealthier nation and signaling an end to imperialism across Africa. Afshin thanks the host, and the interview ends.

Gaddafi's plan to introduce the Gold Dinar threatened Western monetary dominance. The West imposed sanctions, leading to Gaddafi's downfall and a fractured Libya. Africa lost a leader with a vision for economic liberation. Corruption in governments perpetuates a system benefiting the few at the expense of many, hindering economic justice and self-determination globally. Translation: Gaddafi's Gold Dinar plan challenged Western power, leading to sanctions and Libya's instability. Africa lost a leader aiming for economic freedom. Corruption hinders global economic justice and self-determination.

Muammar Gaddafi was killed because he was working with other African leaders to establish Africa's first Central Bank, which would have backed its currency with the continent's natural resources. This move threatened the global economic order dominated by currencies not backed by resources. Gaddafi's assassination was to prevent the creation of a Central Bank of Africa and the end of modern slavery and neo-colonialism on the continent.

The speaker presents a message of alarm and action, arguing that anarchy in Washington DC stems from the federal government seizing powers and passing unconstitutional laws, with men acting as though they are above the Constitution. He claims a supranational, clandestine power structure governs world events. Key claim: a Committee of Three Hundred (also known in intelligence circles as the Olympians) consists of 300 men who run the world and who are sworn to secrecy. The speaker says he discovered this while in Africa, finding documents labeled above top-secret that revealed the committee’s influence. He asserts that the descendants of the British East India Company control The United States today, and that the 300 men govern global affairs with equal voting rights and no outvoting. The speaker traces the committee’s roots and influence to the British East India Company, opium profits, and a global elite. He asserts that in India House in London he found manifests showing opium trade profits that dwarned major carmakers’ profits for certain years, and that the 300 govern from Venice’s black nobility families (the Lucatis, the Rekanates, the Volpe Dumiserratis), boasting wealth that would make figures like David Rockefeller seem modest. He claims those families still run the world and name every member in his book The Committee of 300 and, later, in socialism, the road to slavery. The scope of control is described as worldwide and multi-branch: the Royal Institute for International Affairs (RIIA, aka Chatham House) is the executive arm; the Club of Rome, the Seni Foundation, the Mont Pelerin Society, the Order of Saint John are tapped as executive arms; the RIIA allegedly instructs U.S. policy through the Morgan Guarantee & Trust Bank, with Dennis Weatherstone as a conduit to the Secretary of State and then the President. The speaker alleges the Gulf War was orchestrated by Margaret Thatcher (in Aspen Institute) to instruct George Bush, framing it as unconstitutional and driven by an international agenda. He asserts that the Club of Rome (through Aurelio Peccei) sought to destroy U.S. industry and agriculture, citing Bertrand Russell’s influence and writings on overpopulation. He claims the Club of Rome’s “Zero Growth” post-industrial plan aimed to destroy the American middle class, destroy U.S. industries, and push a socialist transformation. Global 2000 is described as a Club of Rome genocide blueprint targeting mass population reduction by 2050, aimed particularly at decimating the U.S. middle class and other populations. The speaker links AIDS, HIV-era and other outbreaks to this plan, alleging deliberate creation and dissemination of pathogens via Fort Detrick, the World Health Organization, and other bodies, with assertions of experiments (CAB, Lassa fever, etc.) and a later shift to other viruses like HIV/AIDS, cholera, malaria, and black plague, all framed as part of population control under the global plan. He claims vaccines and viral campaigns in Africa and Brazil were weaponized to decimate populations, while the “black nobility” finances these operations through London and Venice. The speaker asserts that a vast network of bankers, insurance companies, mining conglomerates, and political organizations—including the Democrat Party in the U.S.—are controlled by the 300 and their secret society apparatus ( Illuminati, Society of the Cincinnati, etc.). He contends the strongest arm is the Club of Rome, and that the RIA/Club of Rome manipulated U.S. presidents through PMs, MI6, and other foreign controllers. He gives examples: Lincoln’s assassination, Wilson’s presidency, Kennedy’s murder, and later U.S. policy under Bush, Clinton, and others, as outcomes of control by London and the RIIA. The speaker contends that intelligence and political leadership are predetermined by the 300, not elected by the people. He argues the President and Secretary of State are chosen by the Royal Institute for International Affairs, not directly by the American electorate. He cites MacArthur, Dean Rusk, and Truman as exemplars of subversion by an international power structure that guides U.S. foreign policy. In closing, the speaker asserts the Constitution is immutable, condemns what he sees as creeping socialism, and calls for the dissolution of the Federal Reserve and a severing of the concord between the 50 states and the federal government. He frames the situation as a war to the death for the United States, urging Americans to reclaim state sovereignty and reject what he characterizes as unconstitutional measures, arguing that the United States consists of 50 nations with rights to dissolve the federal government if necessary.

Afshin Ratansi hosts *Going Underground* from the UAE and introduces guest Colonel Roxantana Watkins, a 30-year U.S. Air Force veteran researching Cold War covert structures. Ratansi frames the episode around Donald Trump hosting Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and the Gaza situation, and connects these developments to earlier claims about nuclear inspection efforts, the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and Operation Gladio—described as NATO’s clandestine “stay-behind” terror network run with CIA and MI6 that allegedly targeted mass murder to be blamed on the left and to block political opposition to Washington across Cold War Europe and the Global South. Watkins explains that Operation Gladio ran out of NATO: NATO-aligned organizations signed secret agreements to create “stay-behind units” in each country. She says the U.S. was a NATO country too and asks where its Gladio units were, arguing that Gladio shaped “terrorism as a controlling domestic audience.” She asserts Gladio-like methods were used beyond Europe, citing alleged use in Iran before the overthrow of Mossadegh, before the Korean War, and in Vietnam by the French. Watkins describes “Operation Gladio” as a generic umbrella term because each country’s program had different names; she claims Italy was the only country to conduct an in-depth study and reveal its existence, and that Italy’s program was called Gladio. She links the broader concept to false-flag operations meant to “prep a battlefield” and create allegations attributed to communism or other targets. Ratansi adds that post-1945 Italy had a large Communist Party and claims fake atrocities at railway stations were used to discredit the left. Watkins says “communism” functioned as a “boogeyman” attributed to the Soviet Union, pointing to declassified CIA references she describes as involving Guatemala labor efforts attributed to the left. She asserts that in Italy, workers’ rights had been abolished under Mussolini, and she claims international corporations participated in surveillance—specifically mentioning National Cash Register, and asserting that its franchise owner was connected to James Jesus Angleton, describing Angleton’s family ties. She describes the overall operation as orchestrated around an “international syndicate” of oligarchs controlling society. Watkins argues that elites maintain control by preventing democracy, using examples such as Libya under Omar Gaddafi—claimed to have been assassinated for defying a central banking system and relying on gold—and Venezuela under present-day circumstances—claimed to follow the pattern of killing or overthrowing leaders who rely on national use of resources. She describes alleged Gladio involvement in Patrice Lumumba’s assassination, including claims about Eisenhower refusing Lumumba’s requests, Nixon’s refusal, and a subsequent murder she attributes to Gladio elements controlled by Otto Skorzeny under Reinhard Gehlen’s BND. Ratansi asks how Gladio became aligned with Israeli interests. Watkins claims James Angleton sat at a “Mossad desk” in the CIA and a Vatican desk, and she describes a “strategy of tension” originating from late-1800s Fabian Society ideas: creating “left and right” camps to control populations. She claims key nodes include Israel in the Middle East and Taiwan (Formosa) in Asia, and states covert operations were funded through drug networks, pointing to a narrative about Chiang Kai-shek and opium control. She ties funding and recruitment to CIA-linked figures and claims Israel and the UK were integral to setting up Colombia as part of a “crystal triangle,” repeating that London helped set up Israel and that this mapping controls oil. The discussion then shifts to a live-streamed assassination of Charlie Kirk. Watkins says Kirk threatened an apparatus by encouraging people to talk across divisions and claims current Gladio rests on student youth movements globally, including mention of “Optor in Serbia” and George Soros funding. She claims youths are recruited as “foot soldiers” by Mossad, MI6, and CIA, and that movements promoting unity are targeted to prevent societies from coming together. Ratansi then raises U.S. poverty and government shutdown conditions, asking what happens when people rebel. Watkins argues population figures are exaggerated and describes a strategy of tension involving cutting off funding and “planned, targeted radicalizations,” while asserting that false flags are used historically even when some attempts fail. She claims the U.S. companies want oil in Venezuela and references “over 400 attempts” to overthrow governments, with “90 successful coups” documented. Finally, Ratansi asks about Jeffrey Epstein revelations and whether blackmail enables these systems. Watkins argues blackmail is “the grease” that allows the operation to function, describes Epstein as an example, and adds that each country has comparable figures. She links such networks to global travel and exposure of sexual abuse as a means of control, while noting some incidents were exposed in the UK and mentions an unnamed one-star general who allegedly killed himself after exposure. Ratansi asks whether Israeli influence over the Trump administration matches that over the Obama-era “Genocide Joe” administration, referencing PragerU and Alexis Wilkins’s lawsuit. Watkins says she finds it “intriguing” that Trump publicly called out a figure funding pro-Israel activities, but asserts the connection goes deeper, describing Israeli roles as “cutouts” in multiple covert operations involving Iran, Angola, and Africa, and claims Israel became a major diamond seller despite allegedly owning no mines. The episode closes with condolences for those affected by the alleged “UK-US” armed genocide continuing across Palestine and an announcement of the show returning on Saturday.

The speaker argues that whenever a country defends its own people, the United States asks, “Who owns the resources?” and if the answer isn’t The US, a coup follows. The claim is that over 80 foreign governments have been overthrown or destabilized by the United States, and that most of them weren’t dictatorships, but democratically elected governments that threatened US corporate profits. The described playbook involves the CIA funding opposition groups like ISIS and Al Qaeda, planting stories in the media, bribing generals, arming rebels, or collapsing a country’s economy, with the coup replacing the leader with a pro-US dictatorship. The overarching assertion is that this is not about democracy but about power and control. Key historical examples cited include: - Iran in 1953: Mosaddegh attempted to nationalize oil; the CIA launched Operation Ajax, orchestrated protests, paid off politicians, and installed the Shah, resulting in twenty-five years of dictatorship and torture under US protection. - Guatemala in 1954: President Arbenz redistributed land from the United Fruit Company, a US corporation; the CIA branded him a communist, conducted a coup, and Guatemala descended into a civil war with over 200,000 deaths. - Chile in 1973: Allende was overthrown in a US-backed military coup, and Pinochet’s regime tortured and killed thousands after Allende’s attempts to nationalize copper. - Congo in 1961: Lumumba sought African control of African resources; the CIA helped orchestrate his assassination and installed a brutal dictator who was supported for decades. The speaker adds that there are “dozens of others” beyond these cases, including Haiti, Iraq, Libya, Nicaragua, El Salvador, the Dominican Republic, Brazil, Bolivia, and beyond, arguing that the motive is not fighting tyranny but profits and control. When a country attempts to exit the system or nationalize resources to reduce inequality, they threaten profits and the idea that another world is possible, so the CIA sabotages such efforts to prevent successful example-making, such as Libya. The conclusion is that many nations don’t trust the United States because “we’ve been the villains throughout most of our history.” The speaker invites readers to comment to receive a “forbidden reading list” of books and documentaries that “they never wanted you to find.”

The president of Congo is offering the U.S. ownership of some of its $24 trillion in minerals in exchange for Trump negotiating peace in the region, with talks reportedly ongoing with the White House. Congo has the largest lithium reserves, but minerals are extracted by children and shipped to China or Europe for refining. Congo's wealth paradoxically contributes to its poverty due to a lack of industrialization and governmental protection of investments. The situation is complex, involving Rwanda's alleged funding of the M23 group, a pro-Rwanda group operating in Eastern Congo comprised of Tutsis. This traces back to the Rwandan genocide, where divisions between Tutsis and Hutus persist in Eastern Congo. The Rwandan government has aligned itself with FDLR, a group comprised of some of the genociders, which the U.S. has established is a terrorist organization. The Congolese government is now partnering with the FDLR. Despite Congo's mineral wealth, Rwanda has a better military due to its system.

Afshin Ratansi introduces an upcoming meeting between Donald Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, linking it to Saudi Arabia’s stance on Gaza and refusal to normalize relations with Israel. Ratansi says the anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s assassination is connected to a claim that Kennedy, as described by Cy Hirsch in *The Samson Option*, tried to push Israel to allow inspection of its Dimona nuclear reactor while “another secretive apparatus” allegedly operated in parallel, Operation Gladio—described as NATO’s clandestine terrorism network run with the CIA and MI6—used to stage mass atrocities blamed on the left to block legitimate political parties in Cold War Europe and oppose Washington’s agenda in the Global South. Ratansi also frames Charlie Kirk and broader grassroots movements as relevant to these Cold War covert structures. Colonel Roxantana Watkins says Operation Gladio ran “out of NATO” and that NATO-aligned organizations signed secret agreements to create “stay-behind” Gladio units in their countries. She argues that Gladio was used “everywhere,” not only Europe, and cites claims of use in Iran before the overthrow of Mossadegh, in Korea before the Korean War, and in Vietnam by the French. She describes Operation Gladio as a generic term because each country’s program had different names, such as a Jinter Press in Portugal and the Gray Wolves in Turkey, while she says Italy did an in-depth study and revealed its program called Gladio. Watkins connects Gladio to false flags and says its activities were used to “prep a battlefield” with operatives on the ground. Ratansi adds that Italy had a large Communist Party after 1945 and claims that fake atrocities at railway stations were used to discredit the left. Watkins responds by saying “communism” was turned into a boogeyman attributed to the Soviet Union, and she points to declassified CIA documents she says show the Soviet Union label masking other topics such as labor efforts. She claims Mussolini-era Italy abolished workers’ rights, and she describes labor organizing as tied to international corporations, including the National Cash Register taking over transactions in Italy. She says the franchise owner was James Jesus Angleton’s father and describes this as enabling an intelligence network tied to finances. Watkins argues that elites can control populations, which she says explains Western European backing for the war on Russia through Ukraine. She illustrates the pattern with examples including Libya, Venezuela, and the Congo. She claims Muammar Gaddafi was assassinated after defying the central banking system and relying on gold, and she claims Venezuela’s leaders are overthrown or killed when nationalistic resource enrichment challenges central arrangements. She describes Patrice Lumumba’s attempt to renegotiate uranium arrangements after Belgium’s colonial administration and says he was murdered by Operation Gladio elements associated with Otto Skorzeny under Reinhard Gehlen’s German intelligence (BND). She says “every prime minister [or] president” who stands up for their country is a target of an “international syndicate” seeking control of the world’s resources. Ratansi asks how Gladio could have become aligned with Israeli interests. Watkins claims James Jesus Angleton sat at the “Mossad desk” in the CIA and at the Vatican’s desk. She describes “the strategy of tension” as originating from late-1800s Fabian Society ideas, saying it aims to control people by creating “left and right” camps, with Israel framed as a focal point. She claims covert operations are funded through drug networks and cites Taiwan/“Formosa,” alleging Chiang Kai-shek controlled most opium trade in Asia and connected figures she says were involved in OSS/CIA operations and other institutions. In part two, Ratansi asks what Watkins thought when Charlie Kirk was assassinated on video. Watkins says the key risk to this apparatus is “us talking to each other,” and she claims Gladio rests on student youth movements, citing mechanisms like “Optor” in Serbia and George Soros funding. She says college-age recruitment is where Mossad, MI6, and CIA recruit “foot soldiers,” and she describes Charlie Kirk as an Achilles heel because she says he encouraged cross-group conversation. She also compares this to Fred Hampton and the FBI assassinating him, saying large movements that unite people are targeted. Ratansi raises poverty and hunger figures, SNAP disruptions during a government shutdown, and asks what happens when people rebel. Watkins argues numbers like “42 million” are exaggerated and says part of the strategy is to cut funding to prevent uprisings, including “planned, targeted radicalizations.” She says the shutdown period was surprising because she did not see a false flag used then, and she references Venezuela attempts in 2019–2020 that she says failed, attributing failure to U.S. companies wanting oil. When asked about Jeffrey Epstein revelations, Watkins describes Gladio-style operations as requiring “grease” and says she views blackmail as enabling the machinery. She claims Epstein was an example of that blackmail role and mentions other alleged blackmail operations across countries, including the UK, saying global travel and meetings provide opportunities for compromising imagery and coercion. Ratansi concludes by asking whether Israeli influence is as strong under Trump as it was under the previous administration. Watkins says Israel’s role repeatedly appears in Gladio research and claims Israel has acted as a “cutout” for U.S. policy in sending missiles and weapons, including in Iran-related and Angola-related contexts. She says Israel became a major diamond seller “when they don’t own a single diamond mine,” and she ends by saying it is “very troubling” to have Israeli support for politicians because she says Israel has pull over funding.
