Geopolitics with Ghost Ep. 5: Mercenaries, Mineral Wars & the Battle for Africa’s Sovereignty

In this incisive episode of Geopolitics with Ghost, host Gordon McCormick (Ghost) unpacks a tangled web of foreign policy, natural resources, and covert warfare unfolding in Africa, with a laser focus on the Democratic Republic of Congo and Sudan. Ghost begins with the return of three American mercenaries convicted of participating in a failed coup in the DRC, analyzing why the Trump administration might have intervened to bring them home. His theory? These men may hold the keys to uncovering who’s funding instability in the mineral-rich region, possibly tying back to Israeli oligarch Dan Gertler and the long arm of Western intelligence.

The episode then moves to Sudan, where Ghost exposes how the U.S. has worked to block Russia’s effort to build a Red Sea naval base, tracing a timeline from diplomatic threats to the eruption of civil war. Drawing from maps, UN data, historical coups, and public statements by Western and Russian officials, Ghost dissects how Sudan has become a central battleground in the struggle between globalist control and sovereign alliances.

He challenges official narratives, questions who really backs each side in the Sudanese conflict, and explains why Russia and China’s expanding influence in Africa is both a threat to the old guard and a potential lifeline for nations seeking independence from Western coercion. With sharp analysis and deep historical context, Ghost helps listeners understand the deeper stakes behind what looks like chaos, and why the battle for Africa’s future might decide much more than just regional power.
