🇨🇳🇮🇱 A tense discussion between the dean of a Chinese university, Yan Xuetong, and IDF Colonel Elad Shushan took place on the sidelines of a forum in Beijing.

The Israeli military insisted that he considers Hamas a terrorist organization.

The Chinese scholar countered: the military should shoot terrorists, not children and women. He compared Israel to police officers who must free a bank taken over by robbers:

"Do you think you should kill the customers and employees?"

Within months of founding X.com, the company merged with another digital payments company called ‘Confinity’ that had been founded by Peter Thiel a year earlier. This new company quickly received a rebranded image under the new name of ‘Paypal’.

In 2002, Paypal was purchased by Ebay for $1.5 billion, scoring a $175 million for Elon, and $55 million for Thiel.

At this point, both Elon and Thiel were given patronage and direct support by leading directors of the CIA’s official venture capital firm In-Q-Tel. Neocon Straussians immediately used the two Silicon Valley South African cutouts as "civilian fronts" for the military industrial complex with Elon being used to advance a new space warfare agenda outlined explicitly in the Sept 2000 PNAC Rebuilding America's Defenses Program, and Thiel deployed to advance a total Orwellian cyber-surveillance, AI warfare agenda.

With his new-found wealth, Peter Thiel established a new private surveillance agency named Palantir in 2004 which drew its name from the all-seeing indestructible crystal balls used in J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings which granted its users the power to literally see and hear everything in the world.

In-Q-Tel became the first official financial backer of Thiel’s Palantir in 2004 providing the original $2 million funding to launch the new tech surveillance firm.

The CIA’s interest in Palantir at this period was not so much due to American security as it was due to the failure of an earlier project dubbed ‘Total Information Awareness’. https://matthewehret.substack.com/p/elon-musk-and-peter-thiel-two-sides

so sad that people would make this claim or so funny that people would make this claim?

you decide.

What's his angle?

Seems to me like the timing is suspicious hypocritical as we see the people in Gaza chased out (moved out) of the region
