US Senator Lindsey Graham on Monday declared that “the wars of the future are being planned here in ‘Israel’. Because if you’re not one step ahead of the enemy, you suffer,” during a press briefing at The David Kempinski hotel. Graham pointed to ‘Israel’s’ rapid development in advanced weaponry as critical to regional security. A “21st-century Manhattan Project”

During his multi-day visit, Graham met with Netanyahu and other senior officials to discuss a burgeoning US-‘Israeli’ defense partnership. He suggested formalizing collaboration on weapons development, comparing it to a “21st-century Manhattan Project,” emphasizing that maintaining a technological edge is crucial for the survival of both nations.

    Not just wars, it comes home too. The surveillance technology that gets “battle tested” in Israel comes to the US border, and then comes to business and home security, and suddenly there’s AI-powered surveillance of everyone everywhere all at once.
