Elke Schwarz | War on AI Autopilot
AI is already helping militaries identify targets, rank them and act at machine speed.

Dina Matar | Western Media as a Propaganda Tool for Israel
Recorded in December 2025, this conversation remains painfully current.Dina Matar, Professor of Political Communication and Arab Media at SOAS University of London, speaks about the role Western media has played in shaping how Gaza is understood: the erasure of Palestinian history, the reduction of victims to statistics, the use of “both sides” language in a deeply unequal conflict, and the silenc
Zachary Foster | Gaza Was Created as a Warehouse for Superfluous People
Was Gaza inevitable?Historian Zachary Foster says no.In this episode, we discuss the origins of the Gaza Strip, the Nakba, why the expulsion of Palestinians should be understood as an ongoing process rather than a single historical event, and why the two-state solution has become little more than a fig leaf.We also discuss the role of Western media, international diplomacy, and the political decis

Joe Cirincione | Inside the Collapse of Trump's Iran Nuclear Memorandum
Less than 48 hours after the signing of Trump's Iran Memorandum of Understanding, the agreement was already facing its first major test. As fighting continued in southern Lebanon and Tehran suspended the Geneva technical talks, the central assumptions behind Washington's latest diplomatic initiative began to unravel in real time.Veteran nuclear policy expert Joe Cirincione returns to Front
Timothy Lynch | Trump and the Illusion of US Policy Change
Donald Trump promised a different America. Less intervention. Fewer wars. A new approach to the world.But how much actually changes when administrations change?In this episode of Frontlines & Backrooms, Professor Timothy Lynch argues that behind the rhetoric, American foreign policy is often far more consistent than many assume. From Obama and Trump to China, Europe, and the Middle East, we ex

Dr. Roger Higginson | The West’s Fatal Miscalculation
For decades, the West has viewed Iran through the lens of extremism, nuclear fears, sanctions, and permanent crisis. But beneath the revolutionary rhetoric lies something much older: a civilization shaped by invasion, survival, isolation, and a deep fear of collapse.In this episode of Frontlines & Backrooms, Dr. Roger Higginson joins us for a long-form conversation on how Tehran actually sees
OMER BARTOV | Israel, Zionism, and the Battle for Historical Memory

James D. Boys | The Madman Theory: Nixon’s Secret, Trump’s Playbook, and Why the World Is Hooked
What if unpredictability itself has become a weapon of power?From Richard Nixon’s “Madman Theory” to today’s politics of strategic unpredictability, uncertainty itself is once again becoming a weapon of power.At a moment when wars are expanding and the post-Cold War order appears increasingly unstable, one question is moving back to the center of global politics:Is unpredictability becoming the ne

Hussein Banai | This Is Not Just a War With Iran — It’s About Power Inside the United States
The ongoing war between the United States and Iran is not just a conflict between two states.In this conversation with Hussein Banai, we examine how political leaders justify escalation without ever naming it, why deterrence can become a self-fulfilling logic of war, and what this conflict reveals about power and decision-making inside the United States. From the limits of the “madman theory” to t
From the Vatican to Strait of Hormuz | Power, Faith, and War Across the Middle East
This week, the line between religion, politics, and power blurred in ways that go beyond headlines.A public clash between President Trump and Pope Leo XIV.Rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz.And a fragile ceasefire in Lebanon.These are not isolated events — they are part of a broader pattern.In this Brief, we look beyond the spectacle and examine the strategic choices shaping what comes next.

In a candid and open conversation, Dr. Roger Higginson challenges some of the most deeply held assumptions in Western policy and thinking.From Iran to Russia, he argues that what the West sees as aggression is often perceived on the other side as defense — shaped by history, invasion, and long-term insecurity.He explains why de-escalation has become so difficult, pointing to entrenched political n

Trump's Iran War Speech Explained — What It Said, What It Hid

No Negotiations, Only Demands | Iran War, April 6 Deadline & Israel in Lebanon

Iran — The Next Iraq or Something Far Worse? | Frontlines & Backrooms Brief
This week’s Frontlines & Backrooms Brief examines the escalating crisis around Iran — from competing narratives about the nuclear program to the broader regional and global consequences.While political debate in Washington focuses on who provoked whom, the reality on the ground is far more dangerous: missiles are falling across the Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz is closed, and the global economy i
BRIEF #11 | Trump’s State of the Union and Europe’s Strategic Crisis
Five years after the war in Ukraine began, Europe gathered in Kyiv to project unity.
