Wicklow hotel cancels ‘secretive’ Peter Thiel group conference
Powerscourt Hotel and Spa event was to be hosted by Dialog and attended by senior Nato commander and Trump administration officials
Thiel was a cofounder of payments group PayPal and Palantir, a defence contractor known for mass surveillance and criticised heavily for its “strategic partnership” with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in its assault on Gaza.
A leaked schedule for the “retreat” hosted by Dialog, an invitation-only group cofounded 20 years ago by Thiel and entrepreneur Auren Hoffman, featured discussions on topics including preparations for a third world war, battlefield technologies, nuclear energy and cult-building.
Totally normal, nothing to see here. Just a business meeting!
