— 🇺🇸/🇨🇳 NEW: The U.S. National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology has warned that China has overtaken the U.S. in biotech
They recommend that the U.S. must change its course within three years, proposing a minimum investment of $15 billion over the next five years to revitalize the sector.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NOTE: The U.S. tried to land special forces in Iran in 1980 (google 'Operation Eagle Claw')
At that time, Iran had just undergone a revolution, its military was in total disarray, and there were little to no air defenses or radars. Also, the landing site was in the middle of a desert and completely undefended.
Despite all of these positive conditions, 3 of the helicopters failed before even landing, and the mission was aborted. After the order was given to abort the mission, one of the remaining helicopters crashed into a transport plane, killing all inside. This all without a single Iranian soldier being involved.
Bottom line: It is not easy to be Tom Cruise. If the U.S. couldn't do it in 1980, Israel can't do it in 2025.

— The fact that Netanyahu actually believes Israeli commandos can somehow enter Iran, avoiding air defenses, penentrate hundreds of kilometers inland, safely land in the most well-defended and fortified sites in the country, take out the nuclear equipment without resistance, get back on the helicopters, and leave, is just so insane.
I don't even know what to say.
The guy is actually completely nuts.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇱/🇮🇷 NEW: There is a unanimous assessment within U.S. and Israeli military circles that an effective attack on Iran's nuclear sites cannot be carried out by Israel alone, and requires substantial American assistance to succeed
According to U.S. intelligence estimates, even with direct American support, a large-scale strike on Iran's nuclear facilities would likely only set its nuclear weapons program back by several weeks, or months at best.
U.S. intelligence has also assessed that a large-scale strike on Iran's nuclear program would likely result in Iran immediately starting the enrichment of uranium to weapons grade and going for a nuclear weapon. – New York Times / WP

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇱/🇮🇷 NEW: Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu proposed an ambitious plan involving Israeli 'commando raids' on several underground nuclear sites throughout Iran
Netanyahu wanted the raids to be supported by American airstrikes. When high-ranking IDF officials told Netanyahu the plan was incredibly complicated and would only be ready by October, he demanded it be prepared earlier, preferably by May. – New York Times

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇱/🇮🇷 BREAKING: The Trump administration had serious plans for a large scale US-Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear sites, but President Trump rejected the plan, preferring negotiations to a regional war
According to the report, a military strike on Iran had been actively debated within the administration during the past months, and was planned for possibly as early as May.
The strikes were supposed to be joint US-Israeli, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu personally traveled to Washington D.C. to try to convince President Trump to give the green light, which he refused.
Many senior administration officials, including the Secretary of Defense, warned that a war with Iran would be 'catastrophic' and that it would be highly controversial among the U.S. populace. – New York Times / Reuters

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: There is a disagreement within the Trump administration about how to handle the Iranian 'nuclear issue'
President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff all prefer a 'diplomatic solution' in the form of a temporary nuclear deal with Iran.
On the other hand, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, and other senior administration officials are more hawkish, preferring an immediate joint US-Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, exploiting Iran's current perceived 'state of weakness'.

— 🇮🇷 NEW: Pezeshkian's Vice President, Mohammad Reza Aref, was seen posing with Mohammad Ali Najafi, former mayor of Tehran and Minister of Science under President Hassan Rouhani and Minister of Education under Hashemi Rafsanjani
Some of you may think, why does this matter?
Well, Mohammad Ali Najafi was found guilty of murdering his second wife in 2019. He shot her several times, once in the heart, and she was found dead in the bathtub. He confessed to the killing on live TV.
The family initially wanted to apply the Islamic law of 'Qisas' (eye for an eye), and the death penalty was granted. However, the family of the woman later granted him a pardon, saying they forgave him, so he was exempt from the death penalty.
Due to corruption under the reformist government led by President Hassan Rouhani, he was later released from prison on a $240,000 USD bail, allegedly for 'being ill', and he never ended up serving his sentence for possession of the illegal firearm, a Beretta 92, which he used to kill his wife.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman has released a statement, accusing the United States of 'moving the goalposts' and lack of seriousness and good faith
This is possibly a response to the change in the location of the talks, or the fact that U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff changed his rhetoric in public to be more hawkish just days after the talks in Oman, where he came off as quite reasonable.
