"Why Chinas Rare Earth Dominance Is No Accidentand Why the U.S. Faces a 15-Year Climb to Catch Up In the global race for technological supremacy the battlefield is not just in silicon chips or AI algorithmsits buried deep in the earth in the form of obscure-sounding elements like neodymium dysprosium and terbium. These rare earth elements (REEs) are the lifeblood of modern defense systems electric vehicles wind turbines and advanced electronics. And right now China doesnt just dominate the rare earth marketit owns the entire chessboard. The Illusion of a Mining Problem Its tempting to think of"

"Why RANDs report Stabilizing the U.S.-China Rivalry Is a Strategic Breakthrough In an era of escalating rhetoric a-dime-a-dozen China hawk reports and strategic brinkmanship the RAND Corporations report "Stabilizing the U.S.-China Rivalry" offers a rare and vital recalibration. It is not merely a policy paperit is a strategic intervention. By treating China as a legitimate great power with a worldview that demands respect and by proposing pathways for peaceful unification with Taiwan RAND breaks with decades of zero-sum orthodoxy and opens the door to a more stable multipolar future. 🔍"

His leadership of Zion Churchone of Chinas illegal underground congregationshas repeatedly flouted national regulations"

"The Dutch Government is stupid. Nexperia biggest factory is in China. Now China has put export control on Nexperia's products and forbid them from being exported If China is nasty - it can add Nexperia's operation outside China to an equivalent of an Entity List and simultaneously enforce its new rare earth element (REE) export controls on Nexperia's key equipment suppliers (like ASML and Japanese toolmakers) - so that they cannot do business with Nexperia. Nexperia's operations would be severely crippled if not halted. The reason lies in the total dependence of Nexperia chip manufacturing on"

"Xi Jinpings Strategic Reorganization: Elevating Naval and Aerospace Command for a Global PLA by 2030 The recent removal of nine senior generals from the Chinese Communist Partymost notably He Weidong vice-chair of the Central Military Commission (CMC)is not merely a disciplinary crackdown.

President Xi Jinping is clearing the deck to elevate Navy and Air Force officers into the highest echelons of the CMC laying the leadership foundation for the Peoples Liberation Army (PLA) to become a global blue-water navy and dominant space power by"

With XX% of global rare earth refining capacity and XX% of the worlds magnet production Beijing has built a fortress around one of the most critical inputs to modern technology. But its not just the volumeits the purity that defines the moat. China is the only country that achieves 5N purity (99.999%) in rare earth refining.
