🎙️ EP#336 | GUEST | From Kissinger to Palantir: Geopolitics, Iran, and the AI Cold War

In this riveting episode, host Ray Doustdar welcomes James Corbett of The Corbett Report for a no-holds-barred discussion on global geopolitics, elite power structures, and the digital rebranding of warfare. From the roots of Middle East conflicts to Palantir’s quiet role in triggering international escalations, the duo explores how propaganda, predictive programming, and military-industrial tech are reshaping our world in real time.

James Corbett peels back layers of U.S. foreign policy, taking us on a historical journey through the Project for a New American Century, the role of AI in warfare, and the idea that we may be witnessing the dawn of a techno-oligarch deep state. Is Trump forming his own military-industrial faction? Has the uniparty simply upgraded its hardware? Ray and James dissect the motivations behind U.S. actions in Iran and Israel, with deep dives into figures like Kissinger, Cheney, and Netanyahu.

They also discuss the digital propaganda machine—from Hollywood’s predictive programming to the BRICS alliance’s deafening silence on recent U.S. strikes. Whether it’s Cold War 2.0 or a live rehearsal for World War III, this conversation is a geopolitical masterclass packed with high-level insights, bold perspectives, and enough receipts to question everything.
