Show Notes
Israel faces a strategic schizophrenia: deepening economic ties with China while worrying about Beijing's support for Iran and its proxies. This episode explores the history of the relationship, from the 1992 normalization to the controversial Haifa port deal, and examines how U.S. export controls on semiconductors are pushing Israeli tech firms toward Chinese suppliers. We break down the contradictions, the risks to U.S.-Israel ties, and what businesses should watch as supply chains and security concerns collide.
