David Rutherford Show: “WWIII Is Being Engineered” — Venezuela Was the First Move
📍EM Burlingame breaks down why Venezuela is not a regional crisis — but the first strategic move in a much larger global power operation now underway.
This conversation goes far beyond oil, elections, or headlines.
According to Burlingame, what just unfolded in Venezuela fits a long-running geopolitical pattern involving:
• shadow power networks
• regime change operations
• color revolutions
• proxy governments
• strategic positioning for future global conflict
• and the restructuring of world power itself
You’ll hear why Venezuela is being framed as “Step One” on what Burlingame describes as a global chessboard — and what that implies about what comes next.
