In this dense, far-reaching conversation, Matt Ehret and Ghost break down the rapidly shifting global order through the lens of MBS, Trump, Russia, and the unraveling of Western hegemony. They explore Saudi Arabia’s hard line on Palestinian statehood, why MBS won’t be bribed into the Abraham Accords, and how Trump’s 20-point peace plan aligns with decades of promises to Palestinian leaders. From Qatar’s 2017 counter-terrorism agreement and its role in cutting ISIS financing, to the quiet construction of U.S. military infrastructure in Israel, the episode connects today’s moves to a broader geopolitical realignment driven by bilateral trade agreements and nuclear energy development. Matt and Ghost highlight how NATO is collapsing under its own contradictions, why Germany may soon break from EU control, and how populist nationalism is reshaping global alliances. They close with deep historical context, Harding, Versailles, Templars, mystery cults, and how symbols, language, and institutions are reclaimed or co-opted across eras, all while Trump and Putin maneuver to neutralize the Ukraine conflict and dismantle the warmongering architecture behind it.
