Sanctions, Strategic Tension, and Resistance Economies

Mentor Sessions Ep. 057: Iran War Hidden Motivations - Financial Industrial Complex vs Military Industrial Complex | Simon Dixon

Nobody can agree on why this war started. Some say it's about nukes. Some say Israel. Some say protecting America. Simon Dixon says they're all wrong — and when you follow the money, the real picture is unlike anything you're hearing in mainstream or alternative media. In this episode, Simon breaks down the financial industrial complex behind the Iran conflict, why China is letting America bomb Iran, who actually benefits from closing the Strait of Hormuz, and why a single meeting in April could restructure the entire world order. This isn't a war between nations. It's a war between the military industrial complex and the financial industrial complex — and the Middle East is just the battlefield. Simon Dixon is the founder of BnkToTheFuture and one of the sharpest macro minds in Bitcoin. If you want to understand what's really happening, where the money is flowing, and what it means for Bitcoin and your stack — this is the episode. Watch to the end for Simon's prediction on the April China Summit and exactly what Bitcoiners should be doing right now.
