1. Le scénario global
Dans la nuit du 13 juin 2025, Israël a lancé l’opération Rising Lion, une offensive massive contre l’Iran visant à endommager ses capacités nucléaires et militaires. Des frappes aériennes ont visé des sites clés à Natanz et Fordow, ainsi que des installations de l’IRGC, entraînant la mort de hauts responsables comme Major General Hossein Salami et plusieurs scientifiques du nucléaire theguardian.com+10thetimes.co.uk+10en.wikipedia.org+10.
Cette opération combinait plusieurs volets :
-
une attaque aérienne massive (plus de 200 avions, 330 munitions, 100 cibles) en.wikipedia.org ;
-
un volet clandestin : drones explosifs pré-positionnés en Iran, visant radars et systèmes de défense thetimes.co.uk+2csis.org+2time.com+2.

Israël justifie cet assaut comme un acte de prévention face à un Iran approchant d’une arme nucléaire, un seuil que Jérusalem juge inacceptable
2. La riposte iranienne
En réaction, l’Iran a lancé une attaque à grande échelle utilisant plus de 100 drones et plus de 150 missiles balistiques dirigés vers Israël nypost.com. L’armée israélienne affirme avoir intercepté tous les drones en dehors de son espace aérien, tandis que plusieurs missiles ont touché des zones habitées, causant au moins 22 blessés .
However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.
Stephen Hawking
Half of my library are old books because I like seeing how people thought about their world at their time. So that I don’t get bigheaded about something we just discovered and I can be humble about where we might go next. Because you can see who got stuff right and most of the people who got stuff wrong.
If we find life out there, and it’s not us, we will deem it not intelligent. But what may be equally as likely is that we find life that’s vastly more intelligent than we are. If that’s the case, we are putty in their hands. With regard to robots, in the early days of robots people said, ‘Oh, let’s build a robot’ and what’s the first thought? You make a robot look like a human and do human things. That’s so 1950s. We are so past that.
The caricature of science is that we hold tight to the theories we have, and shun challenges to them. That’s just not true. In fact, we hold our highest rewards for those scientists who can prove others wrong. And by the way, they are famous in their own lifetimes. We don’t wait until they’re dead.
People May Hear Your Words, but They Feel Your Attitude
Every account of a higher power that I’ve seen described, of all religions that I’ve seen, include many statements with regard to the benevolence of that power. When I look at the universe and all the ways the universe wants to kill us, I find it hard to reconcile that with statements of beneficence.
I have a personal philosophy in life: If somebody else can do something that I’m doing, they should do it. And what I want to do is find things that would represent a unique contribution to the world – the contribution that only I, and my portfolio of talents, can make happen. Those are my priorities in life.
We didn’t build the interstate system to connect New York to Los Angeles because the West Coast was a priority. No, we webbed the highways so people can go to multiple places and invent ways of doing things not thought of by the persons building the roads.
When you innovate, you create new industries that then boost your economy. And when you create new industries and that becomes part of your culture, your jobs can’t go overseas because no one else has figured out how to do it yet.
The history of exploration across nations and across time is not one where nations said, ‘Let’s explore because it’s fun.’ It was, ‘Let’s explore so that we can claim lands for our country, so that we can open up new trade routes; let’s explore so we can become more powerful.’
