🚨Thorium Reactors: China Just Did What Everyone Else Talked About for 50 Years China has just crossed a line the rest of the world never managed to step over. Their experimental thorium molten salt reactor has successfully converted thorium into uranium-233 and sustained nuclear fission inside a working system....

#WATCH | On being asked about the West Asia conflict and where the Islamabad MoU stands right now, Senior Journalist, Political Commentator & Author, Fareed Zakaria says, "It's completely dead. It was predictable that it would be dead... Iran has figured out it has a usable nuclear weapon that can be used as leverage, which is control over the Strait of Hormuz...What we are trying to solve now is a problem created by the war itself, and even that has not been solved. In my opinion, the whole thing is a very humiliating defeat for the United States" "It's completely dead. And it was predictable that it would be dead because it is a memorandum of misunderstanding...Iran has figured out it has a usable nuclear weapon, in other words, a weapon that is actually more powerful because it can be used as leverage. That leverage is control over the Strait of Hormuz, and they want to assert that power...To give you an understanding of how poorly this war has gone for the United States, remember President Trump's original goal, which was to destroy the Iranian regime, have the people of Iran launch an uprising, and bring democracy to Iran. That didn't work. The goal number two became the nuclear issue...The desire to get the Iranians to hand over their enriched uranium, swear that they would never use it again, and permanently end the program none of that has happened. The third goal then became control of the Strait of Hormuz, which, of course, was open before the war. What we are trying to solve now is a problem created by the war itself, and even that has not been solved. In my opinion, the whole thing is a very humiliating defeat for the United States" Watch full interview here:

#WATCH | Surat, Gujarat: On India advancing civil nuclear programme, Senior Scientist, Dept. of Atomic Energy, Dr Neelam Goyal says, "... India’s economy rests on three pillars: agriculture, industry, and services. The backbone of all three is electricity. At present, around 70% of India’s electricity comes from coal, with much of the quality coal imported from Indonesia. This costs the country roughly Rs 12,000 crore annually. To achieve self-reliance, India must develop domestic energy sources. India possesses vast reserves of thorium—around 85% of the world’s supply—enough to generate 5,000 units of electricity per person per year for 500 years, compared to the current 1,000 units. Yet nuclear energy faces public resistance due to misconceptions and fear. As a result, nuclear projects are often delayed for a decade or more. I completed my PhD in 2008 at Rajasthan University, studying the impact of nuclear power plants on regional economies, welfare, and health. In 2009, I undertook postdoctoral training with India’s Department of Atomic Energy in Mumbai... Since 2011, after the Fukushima disaster, I have worked to raise awareness and reduce opposition to nuclear energy across states, including Haryana, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, and Gujarat. Currently, India operates 23 reactors using uranium, imported from countries such as Australia and Mongolia. Uranium is a fissile element, and its by-product, plutonium, can also be used as fuel. India’s fast breeder reactor programme now utilises plutonium, and when combined with thorium, it can be converted into uranium-233, a powerful fissile material. This opens the door to smaller reactors and long-term energy independence, potentially supplying India with abundant electricity for years."

Jeff Bezos just described the Moon as a fuel depot, and the number behind it explains why nothing has ever left this planet cheaply. Bezos: “it has a very low gravitational field, only a sixth of Earth’s, which means it takes about 30 times less energy to lift a kilogram of mass off the Moon than it does to lift it off the Earth.” Thirty to one. That number rewrites the economics of everything beyond this planet. Every rocket ever launched has fought the same math. The fuel required to escape Earth is so heavy that most of what a rocket carries is the fuel needed to carry the fuel. The Moon breaks that cycle. It sits outside the well with water frozen in its shadowed craters, and water splits into hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen and oxygen are rocket fuel. Bezos: “the Moon is really a gift” Fill the tank up there instead of down here and the arithmetic of the entire solar system changes. Bezos: “So we can use the Moon as a rocket fuel depot to go to the rest of the solar system.” Not a destination. A gas station. Then there is the second constraint, which is that the sky itself runs on a schedule. Bezos: “unfortunately to get to other planetary bodies, they have very rare launch windows. Mars, you can go to Mars once every 26 months or so.” Miss the window and the answer is not next week. It is two years and change. Every world beyond our own operates on a timetable that does not care about human ambition. Bezos: “It’s so close to Earth. It’s only three and a half days away.” Except the Moon. The Moon is always there. Always reachable. That is what makes it the staging ground rather than the trophy. Apollo treated it as an endpoint, planted a flag, and came home. The flag was the mistake. A gas station is worth more than a monument. Monuments end the story. Infrastructure is what lets everyone who comes after take the trip for granted. Every era of exploration on Earth followed the same shape. Someone crossed once for glory, then someone built a port, and only after the port did ordinary people go. We have been staring at the Moon for three hundred thousand years thinking it was a destination. It was never the destination. It was the door. Every planet in the solar system just got closer. Not because the distances changed, but because the starting point did.

Blinken finally said the quiet part out loud: The United States cannot defeat China alone. So his solution is not to outbuild, outproduce, or outcompete China. It is to assemble Europe, Japan, South Korea, India, Canada, and Australia into a larger anti-China bloc—then disguise containment as “alliance coordination.” That is the entire strategy: America alone is no longer strong enough, so Washington wants to weaponize everyone else’s anxieties. But here is the darkest joke. While Blinken dreams of mobilizing the world against China, global opinion is moving in the opposite direction. Pew polling now shows China viewed more positively than the United States across many countries. Even in Europe—America’s traditional alliance base—China’s favorability has risen above America’s. So Washington has a structural problem: It wants to lead an anti-China coalition at the exact moment more of the world trusts China than the country demanding that coalition. Blinken calls this “working with friends.” China calls it what it is: An empire that can no longer win alone asking its clients to supply the missing weight. America’s alliances were supposed to prove its leadership. Now they increasingly reveal its dependence. China is competing with the United States. The United States is recruiting the world to compensate for the fact that it cannot compete with China by itself. Yet the funniest meltdown did not come from American rednecks. It came from overseas Chinese opportunists who built their entire identity around hating China. Blinken merely admitted that America cannot defeat China alone, and they immediately accused him of being “brainwashed” and spreading “Chinese propaganda.” Their problem is not China. Their problem is that China’s rise has destroyed the psychological mechanism they depend on for survival: the belief that America must always stand above China—because without that hierarchy, their entire borrowed identity collapses.

🇷🇺 Alexander Babakov Dismantles the Club of Rome’s Dogma of Scarcity World Resources Are Limitless. We Can Feed Everyone. We Can Clothe Everyone. We Can Create Favorable Conditions For All Alexander Babakov: What does the well-known Club of Rome tell us? There is a shortage of resources, there is a shortage of food, the population is too big, etc., and these are the principles that they built their forecasts on. And these forecasts are not true to life. What does Chairman Xi say? What does our president say? World resources are limitless. We can feed everyone, we can clothe everyone, we can create favorable conditions for all. What do we need? We need goal setting. And Chinese goal setting is not generating profit or making more money today than yesterday. No—the goal is to create the right environment for human development, for collective development, for the country as a whole. It is the upside potential that guarantees achieving the highest dreamed-for goals, and it relates to everything, including technological solutions. You’ve seen mind-blowing technological solutions that are aimed at improving the quality of life of the Chinese people. But it is not only that—China can export that. But the key thing is that China started with finance. China created an independent system from those conditions that were set by the West for other countries. For China, or even for Russia of the 1990s, the West was writing rules under which countries could develop only by relying on the amount of money that the metropolis left for that country. Well, you will have as much money as how much oil you have sold. This is how it was in ancient times, when there were real colonies, and the same thing is happening in the modern world. China closed this down and said: in terms of money to develop China, we have sufficient money for our projects. The money mass in the Chinese economy is higher than that of the United States, Europe, and Japan taken together. And China made numerous elements of the economy move together. They armed their people with resources to push development forward. And China does not have any tasks that are not achievable. For any country, there are certain constraints. There are constraints that can be described as the number of projects that can be implemented. This freedom of decision-making and setting a new goal—the quality of life—is something that the West has not yet understood, and it will have to accept that China will lead the world, and then other countries will follow China: Pakistan, which has the same mindset; India thinks the same; now Russia has its own vision. And our principal goal today is not profit-making, not increasing GDP, but a positive resolution of demographic problems—not only maintaining the population, but increasing the population. And it is not a quantitative but a qualitative goal.

This is the outline currently under discussion between the United States and Iran. I am sharing this with caution, as it hasn’t been agreed upon yet, but based on recent developments, these are the points they have been discussing: A 15-year suspension of uranium enrichment. The United States originally demanded 20 years, while the Iranians wanted much less; they eventually settled on 15. The plan includes converting uranium into fuel, which changes its physical state and makes it harder to re-enrich. While not a simple process, this means the uranium won't necessarily leave Iran, which is a major concern for Israel. Full inspection of nuclear sites and the opening of the Strait of Hormuz are, of course, a given. The deal would also include ending the war, the withdrawal of American forces from the Gulf, and the lifting of economic sanctions. It must be said that, aside from the uranium, the lifting of sanctions is what worries Israel the most. As you recall, the strategic goal of the war was to create the conditions for the regime’s downfall. The regime was in danger of collapsing due to an economic situation that deteriorated primarily because of those sanctions; if they are lifted, the regime is strengthened. Therefore, it seems to me that the perception in Israel remains that the status quo is preferable—a state of "no war, no peace" where U.S. military forces remain on standby in the Persian Gulf. But as we have learned, this does not depend solely on Israel's desires, to put it mildly.
