Podcast Title

The Board of Peace: America’s Retreat & Middle East Reset | Simon Dixon

Podcast Description

The "Board of Peace" isn't a diplomatic breakthrough—it's an exit strategy. In this episode, Simon Dixon decodes the signal that marks America’s managed retreat from the Middle East and the end of the unipolar moment.

In this episode:

  • Peace as Profit: Why the Military-Industrial Complex is pivoting from perpetual war to reconstruction, and why the Financial Industrial Complex (FIC) is betting on stability.
  • The Middle East Reset: How China and the Gulf nations forced a new order, effectively ending the "Greater Israel" project.
  • America’s Managed Decline: Why Trump’s initiative is actually a mechanism to downsize global commitments while preserving narrative control.
  • Bringing the War Home: The dark reality of how surveillance and control tactics tested abroad are now being deployed domestically against Western citizens.
