    Wars don’t just happen. They’re planned.
    Crises aren’t random. They’re designed.
    In this explosive conversation, Air Marshal Sanjeev Kapoor reveals how global power is played like a rigged game, and who’s winning.

    Who’s really in charge of the chaos we see across the world?

    🔹 Is the USA the mastermind behind global instability?
    🔹 Why does the IMF keep saving Pakistan despite terror links?
    🔹 What’s the truth behind America–Israel ties?
    🔹 Who controls the global narrative — and why is India sidelined?
    🔹 How do media, war, soft power & manipulation intersect?

    🎖️ About the Guest:
    Air Marshal Sanjeev Kapoor has led India’s air defence, commanded elite air bases, trained generations at NDA, and witnessed the geopolitics of power from the inside.
