Read preview"I think we're at the cusp of changing the world," investor Clark Golestani said of a technology called Zero Knowledge Proofs. Golestani spent 24 years as a chief information officer at pharma giant Merck, before becoming a venture investor five years ago. He's an investor and board member of a startup named Toposware that hopes to embed ZKP security into its customers' everyday internet usage. It's a tech that Andreessen Horowitz crypto investor Michael Blau recently compared to a magician's trick. Toposware is developing a cloud service, a so-called "settlement layer" where companies can add its ZKP service to their networks.

Hamas officials say they do not regret the October 7 attack on Israel and would do it again. The Israeli response has killed thousands of Palestinians, but Hamas says the price is worth it. The goal was to "overthrow" the status quo, not "improve the situation in Gaza," one official said. In fact, Hamas leaders say their goal was to trigger that very response and that they're still hoping for a bigger war still. In an interview this week with the Lebanese newspaper Al-Liwaa, another Hamas leader, Osama Hamdan, reiterated that the group has no regrets for attacking Israel.

In 2017 and 2018, the United States - under then-President Donald Trump - cast two vetoes to shield its ally Israel, complicating a U.S. campaign to reform the U.N. Human Rights Council. "The wider world will see an equivalence between this veto by the U.S. and Russia's behavior over Ukraine. Israel has since pounded Gaza from the air and imposed a complete siege on the enclave. "We cannot choose to call on the U.N. Charter's principles to protect Ukraine and ignore it for Palestine," the diplomat said. "You have been preaching and lecturing us for decades, especially Western countries, about human rights and international law," he said.
