Breaking History Ep. 123: The Rabin Assassination, Hidden Deals & Eschatological Power

In this thought-provoking episode of Breaking History, Matt Ehret sits down with journalist and historian Martin Sieff to mark the 30th anniversary of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin’s assassination, an event they argue changed the course of Middle Eastern peace. Sieff, a former Washington Times correspondent who covered Rabin firsthand, reveals startling insights into Rabin’s secret peace negotiations with Syria’s Hafez al-Assad, his conflict with Shimon Peres, and the Israeli deep state divisions that may have sealed his fate. Together, they explore the tangled roots of Zionism, British imperial intrigue, the manipulation of eschatology for political control, and how modern global elites still play by those same occult-inspired rules. From Herzl’s utopian vision to Tony Blair’s technocratic “peace boards,” from the Balfour Declaration’s hidden motives to the modern Abraham Accords, Ehret and Sieff connect a century of hidden agendas shaping today’s geopolitical chaos. A sweeping and explosive conversation that exposes how myth, power, and ideology collide to steer world history.
