North Korea Tests: Why the US Is Really Behind It | Graham Elwood In this video, Graham Elwood examines North Korea's latest long-range missile test and reports from The Telegraph on international reactions, including warnings from Russian President Vladimir Putin. Graham discusses how U.S. military manoeuvres, aircraft carriers (like the USS Carl Vinson), and joint drills near the Korean Peninsula act as provocative flexing of muscle that backs an unpredictable regime into a corner. He critiques the lack of diplomatic alternatives, pointing out how leadership positions of peace and de-escalation are rarely tried by superpowers, and emphasises the urgent need for true anti-war and progressive foreign policy. ============================================================ ▶️ Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@GrahamElwoodOfficial?sub_confirmation=1 ============================================================ 🧊 See the Full Uncensored Investigation Here: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/grahamelwood Rokfin: https://rokfin.com/grahamelwood 📺 New Comedy Special "Manifest It" on Apple TV: https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/graham-elwood-manifest-it/umc.cmc.65wuzkrazdqspd2pu240x5chp 🤝 Support the Channel (We are demonetised!): 💳 Donate: https://www.grahamelwood.com/#support 💸 Venmo: https://venmo.com/graham-elwood 👑 Join YouTube Members: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX1rle36wIlP9ry8uidnCsA/join 👕 Merch: https://www.grahamelwood.com/shop/ 🪙 Crypto Support & Affiliates: 🟠 BTC: qzx00qv3cz8xur9ujyewgda3hnc03perpqp2rz7043 🔑 BTC (Alt): 3BWaUfZ3M57KaoWVpxpbKmMEyy9Ybw8vQV 🔷 ETH: 0xD970059f6c57B4f707E778Ba19d6586039b0BD0F 🦢 SwanBitcoin: SwanBitcoin.com/grahamelwood (We both get $10.) 💳 Crypto.com: https://referral.crypto.com/signup?_branch_match_id=766078563177305504 (We both get $25.) ============================================================ 📱 Connect & Listen: 🌐 Website: http://www.grahamelwood.com 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GrahamElwoodComedy/ 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grahamelwood 🐦 X/Twitter: https://x.com/grahamelwood 🎤 Live Tour Tickets: www.grahamelwood.com 🎧 Podcast: www.grahamelwood.com/#podcasts ============================================================ 📚 Sources & Further Reading: 1.
