Next Years News This Week THE CHANGING WORLD ORDER: A FiRe Conversation with By Mark Anderson _________ Why Read: Two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of discussing the seismic changes under way in the world with my good friend Sir Richard Dearlove, past chief of MI6 (Her/His Majestys Secret Service), onstage at the FiRe 2026 conference. Specifically, we had the time and freedom from influence to take a cold look at the rather staggering shifts in money, power, and military status over just the last few months. I suspect that our shared discoveries will shock many and perhaps surprise all. mra _________ I should start by noting that just this past week we made the video of the following conversation and all other FiRe 2026 sessions available - first in advance release to SNS members and FiRe attendees and then to the general public. We encourage you to share this full video set freely with your friends and colleagues. (The doors of the FiRe 2026 Photo Gallery are also now open, with offstage shots coming soon.) Having just watched the video of my conversation with Sir Richard Dearlove, I have now abandoned my prior intent for this issue: to summarize the conversation and bring out its high points. Rather, I think our members will be better served by taking in the conversation itself, which you can do by going here: For those on airplanes or without the time to watch a video, we are presenting here a complete text version, with our highlights, so that you can review this rather amazing conversation offline.
