Description

 

📍America hears headlines. He hears explosions. Today, David speaks with Steven Al Ebadi (Alladdin1983) — a former U.S. intelligence officer reporting from inside Ukraine, days away from drone strikes, surrounded by civilians who refuse to surrender.

Stephen shares:

  • Why he flew to Ukraine with no job & no safety net

  • The real morale of Ukrainian civilians

  • What weapons arrived broken — and what worked

  • Why identity, faith, and national pride fuel the resistance

  • Russian & North Korean troop presence

  • Whether peace is even possible

  • The story the mainstream won’t touch — life under daily attack
