The Beijing Intermezzo: How Xi’s U.S. Tech Trap Informs Israel’s War on Iran |
As Trump and party touches down for the high-profile, high-stakes trade summit in Beijing, Jerusalem must look past the flashy corporate handshakes to identify a quiet, structural snare.
The “Beijing Intermezzo”–Xi Jinping’s calculated seduction of America’s tech and financial elites–is not merely about microchips and market access.

In a metaphorical chess match reminiscent of the cold, mathematical calculations in 1964 cinema’s Fail-Safe, Xi sets up a........
