🇨🇳 The Middle East war has China stuck in a weird spot. And Beijing knows it. Iran needs China. But China? Not so much. It trades 10x more with Saudi and the UAE. So Beijing’s walking a tightrope: condemning Khamenei’s killing, criticizing Iran’s Gulf attacks, calling for a ceasefire, yet ignoring Trump’s calls to reopen Hormuz. China’s play is smart: let America burn diplomatic fuel while it plays the calm, reasonable adult in the room. But there’s risk. Rising oil prices, crashing Gulf economies, and Europe, China’s top export market, getting hit hard. For now, it’s watching, very carefully, from a very safe distance. Source: Japan Times







🇮🇱🇮🇷 Why Israeli air defenses keep failing against Iranian missiles... Three layers. Iron Dome for rockets. David's Sling for missiles. Arrow for ballistic threats in space. Sounds impenetrable until Iran's glide vehicles start zigzagging mid-flight, confusing every tier simultaneously. Iran spends $200 million on an attack. Israel spends $1 billion defending against it. Five weeks of that math and the interceptors run out before the missiles do. Source: Ai Telly
