Policymakers and investors are focused on the above-ground infrastructure for AI (data centers, grid access, etc)). A massive vulnerability for AI and offshore wind power lies beneath the sea. My colleague and I wrote an oped in the Washington Post on danger to undersea cables

Pretty clear what this is:

Eisenkot is warning Netanyahu against using the military to launch operations against Iran during Israel’s political transition, in order to try to stay in power at the head of a unity government.

He cites Netanyahu’s status as a caretaker prime minister with reduced authorities and the support of only 46 seats in the Knesset, and the potential damage to Israel democracy of using the security services for political purposes.

“Chuck and I have had our differences. I am in his office a lot more, I think, than he wants me to be in his office….At the end of the day, these are historic numbers. It's time for us to unify.”

I was on @indiatv panel with a China-based expert who claimed the Nvidia affair is nothing more than a sex scandal because China does not steal IP and develops IP indigenously. I - and every U.S. president the last 20 years having to deal with Chinese theft - would disagree.

Can the US continue doing business with China while worrying that its most advanced technology could strengthen a strategic rival? The NVIDIA debate exposes the difficult balance between commercial interests and national security.
