No one has a political horizon, for a post war scenario.

Political will for a two-state solution does not exist.

And witrh 750,000 settlers in West Bank and East Jerusalem, there is no way to separate the two communities. 

International community for decades, has had no realistic plan to implement a two-state solution.

This ineptness has given Israel, room to build more settlements. Israel has now forced the world to deal, not with occupation; but on rights of people in occupied territory. 

Israeli ministers are saying everyday, that they want a Jewish state, from the river to the sea. Israel is now pushing peace prospects far away, by radicalizing both Jews and Arabs. 

Today most Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza believe, that the only way to end the occupation, is by armed resistance. Palestine has a weak leadership; and Arabs stand splintered. 

The 57 year old occupation has to end. 

That is the core. 

There is no way to end this, except by ending the occupation. 

Israel talks about ending the military capability of Hamas. Hamas is more than a military organization. It is an idea. And to counter Hamas, you need a political horizon that ends the occupation.

Otherwise Palestinians will see violence, as the only way to end their suffering.

French voters have once again kept the far right, out of power. 

A surge in support for the left wing New Popular Front -NFP- coalition foiled Marine Le Pen's far right National Rally - RN - party. 

French politics is now more disordered than it was, before the vote. 

Has Macron's gamble paid off?

Plasma containment delayed

ITER's previous goal was to create plasma by 2025. That is postponed. 

ITER prepares to enter the full phase, presently scheduled for 2035. 

ITER came to be after a 1985 summit between  US President and Ronald Reagan and Russian leader Mikhail Gorbachev.

In November 2022, Russia dispatched one of the 6 giant magnets needed for the plasma containment chamber, Tokamak.

In the 1960's, a group of pioneering scientists hypothesized that lasers could be used to induce fusion in a laboratory setting. 

LLNL built a series of increasingly powerful laser systems, leading to the creation of NIF. It uses powerful laser beams to create conditions, like in the cores of stars.

LLNL's experiment in December 2022, delivered 2.05 megajoules of energy, that resulted in 3.54 megajoules of fusion energy output.
