“Actually, happened recently, and it's a simple thing. Sorry that I'm emotional. My daughter, the youngest one, she's six and a half. And she saw that in a tough spot because I just finished a call with one of those parents. And she came and hugged me. And she said, I see that you upset what's happening in Israel. It's all will be fine.”

“I talked with parents that lost their kids. Then I talked with a father that is three years old being kidnapped. So you talk with someone that you're trying to find rationale how to even support him. And you promise that you will carry the message and will explain what's going on in Israel. So it went from a pain to a compassion to these people. Then I talked with a lot of my Israeli Arabs friends and people on the other side and there was more pain because both sides are going to suffer. And then you see what's happening in the US schools and the social medias masking myself, I'm not going to live a better place for my kids, not like that. People want to put the jews in a gas chambers. I mean, what? What are we doing here? So I've been through a lot of tough stuff, but the last three weeks has been by far the toughest.”

“Hard to describe than words. In the very first day, I wanted to just take a flight to Israel and go immediately to a reserve, but I didn't do reserve for 10 years because I live in America and I'm out of the special forces bench. Then it turned to anger of what happened because I talked with parents that lost their kids, have a really good friend that his daughter is being slaughtered in that festival in the south when she just went to dance. The funny thing is this festival name, it's almost burning man of Israel. The festival name is lights and freedom. So you had 4,000 people dancing on that border for lights and freedom, no weapon, no soldier, no nothing, and 260 of them is being slaughtered and cold blood after being raped. So the anger went to a pain because”

“To continue run the company when your kids at the top and rockets are flying and your beloved one are in the front line and you're still running those companies. They're only ask of me is not for more capital and not necessarily to help them navigate some of their business. The only ask for me is carry our message to the world. So, we will all united behind this notion of technology is going to be the way that we are solving conflicts in this world. And prosperity and innovation. And the only thing they say is it's the people that are going to lead that, not our government, it's the people.”

“Hundreds of rockets flying on Israel every day from the south and the north, and there's those sirens, and you need to run to the bunker. These people are navigating between having their kids at home because there is no schools, having either they are in reserves or their other family members in reserves and needs to run companies. And my admiration of the resiliency of this Israeli tech founders are overwhelming and they are so freaking strong of just not giving up and knowing that the real way to win it is not with our military power, it's to show them that they cannot create the chaos industry and show them that we will continue global GDP and we will continue be the third place for venture investments per capita. How you will not want to walk with the company that doing insane wall like that was able”

“Start by saying that I'm not a small idea, I'm a tiny piny leader and I'm doing very basic stuff and there is a much bigger leaders than me that doing an amazing walk. And this is the CEOs of our companies in Israel. And to give you a sense, I've stand up, call with them multiple of times a week to talk about how we can tactically do things, helping them build a budget for 2024, helping them delay payment with SVB, helping them we Eclipse team are going on their behalf to our sales meetings in US because they cannot travel now outside of Israel because the airport are very hard to fly out and fly in that sounds surrealistic for me but to give you a sense on the last meeting we had the call with them yesterday or the day before and the sirens went on. So some of them that lives in Tel Aviv needs to run to the bunkers in parallel to the call because there is multiple”

“We cannot be depends on only Taiwan TSMC in this country. We need to have our own semiconductor capabilities in scales in the most cutting-edge five nanometer and three nanometer nodes. So nobody, even if they move their ships to the backyards of Taiwan, is not going to risk any of our supply chains. So you know what they will do? They actually will not move their ships. They are doing that because they know how strategic is this technology and country for our economy. So what I'm telling all of us is we should use our power to build those companies because it's going to help us push of living this place better than we find it.”

“I'm being successful of building a very large energy storage, I will need to buy less oil from Iran. Without Iran selling oil, they have nothing. Do you know that in the last 10 years, the GDP of Iran has been declining constantly. When oil is actually ripping, building those companies is giving us the tools of industrial security to actually push our tip and our sides of the conflict. And this is, of course, just one example on energy. I can give you many other examples on manufacturing and industrials and aerospace and defense and agriculture and food securities is.”

“That is being developed in so many areas. They're using Kafka and they are using the same data dog that you will all use to deal with the software. And here you have going to have a company with a $5 million investment be able to show me a small Battery using citam in the most cutting edge technology to do energy storage five million dollars. You are going after the energy space that in this country it's about two trillion. And if you take the energy storage out of that, it's about the half a trillion dollar. So, you're talking about gigantic industries that don't have 50 companies, have maybe five.”

“And understand how scale works, what we want to see invention. And what they are using there, they're using simulation software. You simulate now, even before you build anything, you're using a ton of simulation. On the simulation, they're using machine learning to learn the patterns of the chemistry and figuring out when they build a bench test of that chemistry, they know it's going to work because they simulate and then they train the model. They are using vendors off the shelves. They actually don't build anything on the hardware that is custom in the MVP. It's all available off the shelf. There is a well-defined supply chain that is being worked. They're using cloud infrastructure to collect all of the data. Of course, they don't build anything on-prem, so you can spin an AWS instant in a minute. They are using a lot of, they build BMS battery management system that is well defined, that is being built.”

“I will give a quick example of a company we're just finishing build because it will be easy to illustrate. It's a company called Peak Energy and they're focusing on long duration energy storage. They're going to build this very, very large battery farms to offset the grid using a sodom chemicals architecture to do NESS or long-duration energy storage. So I will first start with the people because actually the people is also a change. So the team there, it's a person that works in Tesla many years. Then he moved to Northvolt and was the COO of Northvolt. And then he came to build with us the company. And his co-founder, it's a person that built with us in other battery company call in Novix that we took public. So you have two unbelievable talent that used to not build companies in that space, not only coming to build the companies, they're also coming with the success behind them.”

“30 years, cloud computing and mobiles and sensors and open source software now is being used in the physical industries. And I can build a prototype or I can build some sort of an MVP with a couple of millions of dollars almost regardless on the sectors I'm going after. Now if I'm successful, naturally I will need more capital, but that will be true to any eventual business. So now I also see that the traditional tech tools that we will all use to build a DevOps company, back end, front-end, open source cloud infrastructure, I will use exactly the same stack when I'm building a company in the industrial market. And now I'm essentially using the thick, that's why I say it's a tech company building a car rather a car company using tech. And it's just a tremendous amount of opportunities that we are seeing. And I think the public market seeing it. And that's why we are seeing those multiples of some of the”

“Company the world's needs, I see 50 of them doing exact same things all get funded, and I see none of the semiconductor get funded. And I'm like, if you will want to run all of this machine learning a cloud, you will need a lot of silicon. So basic principles, I believe if he wants to make money, this is the right place to invest, but this is my two cents. What we are seeing here is the average check that Eclipse is writing is about $8 million in the initial check. Those industries used to be extremely capital intensive a decade ago, and that's why you saw a venture investments declining in those industries, because those software companies was very easy to invest and you didn't need a lot of capital in order to flip a card. So how it can be that I can transform an industry is like logistics or manufacturing or industrial with an $8 million is all of the tech tools that is being built in the last”

“I will start by giving a three second macro view world GDP depends on the day about 100 trillion give or take. About 80 trillion is in physical industries. Agriculture, manufacturing, supply chain, logistics, aerospace and defense, et cetera. Tech penetration in those industries about single digits. So regardless of what Leo thinks and regardless what Elon Musk thinks, basic investment principle, you want to invest in a very large town that have a very small tech penetration, but you see the growth coming up. And when I started Eclipse in 2015 and everyone told me, oh, venture should do only crypto and only SaaS and only enterprise software and only Fintech. No, no. Semiconductor, this is not automotive. No, no, no. This is not a venture business. And I was like, how it can be? I mean, how many devices?”

“Little window and talk about tech transformation is happening in those industries in China. So, they don't want to do those jobs anymore. They have a declining, massive declining of their industrial workforce, meaning they need to use the same automation and software that we are using here. If you will see where Qi spending all of his time, so they totally shift away for investing in internet, they all want to invest in semiconductors, robotics, quantum computing, and the things that are in the core of what we do here. So in some way, the competitive of our industries and their industries is first time in the last 30, 40 years in par, knowing that we actually have the innovation engine and the design and the powerhouse that we always had, but now the manufacturing scale and the tools that we are going to use from an industrial point of view is in the same as they have. And I think there is a big opportunity to grow the domestic economy around that hill.”

“Logistics, semiconductors, automotive, hardware is, those industries are huge. And we used to focusing on the design of those products and the end market. And I think what we are seeing now that vertically integrating by building this industrial capabilities domestically can actually giving us a lot of other benefits that are not purely the focusing of low cost. And it can be how fast we can move. It can be the idea that I can control everything in the car and I can push software from remote and I can do things that I couldn't do before. I call it, it's a technology company that building a car. It's not a call company that's using tech. And NVIDIA, it's a technology company that's building chip. It's not a chip company that's using tech. And that's what we do in Eclipse and looking for other companies that looks like that. The other thing that is happening that I think it's worth to give.”

“Think globalization can happen only when everyone plays fail. I do not think people play fair with us in the last 30 years. They have a very different, there is a freedom of speech in China? Is there a freedom of religion there? No. Is there a freedom of speech in Randall? Is there a really truly a leader in Russia that we can actually negotiate and do things in a common sense now? So I can't focusing on specialization when the other side is taking advantage of me. And I think that's what happened. If you are looking on actually the S&P 500 and you're looking on the largest companies and the S&P 500s, what you will find is a company like NVIDIA, they're building chips. So that's actually how the manufacturing company, you will find a company like Amazon, they're doing logistics. You will find a company like Apple that's building hardware. You will find, not in the top 10, but you will find the companies like Tesla that building cars. I think what we're seeing in the commonality.”

“Not small cracks, they're huge cracks in the backbone of our economy and our society. The ability to use automation and software and hardwill and semiconductor to own those capabilities in this country from building rockets that we can go to space through batteries like Inovix, not too far from where I sit, the building batteries in Silicon Valley to manufacturing automations. company right now I'm sitting in, Bright Machines. All of this industrial capabilities and the technology and the innovation are not only helping United States thrive the GDP and the growth of the GDP because this is the industries that moving the economy. More importantly it strengthening our force even more important than our carriers and nuclear capabilities.”

“And where I'm focusing most of my time. In order to United States and the Western countries to continue their amazing leadership that we were seeing essentially post-World War II, that on the back of it we could live in a fairly safe matter with not a lot of huge wars because US was a country and a nation that nobody will mess with. We need to bring back this what I call digital transformation industrial backbone. A manufacturing capabilities in a lot of cases more powerful than a weapon. And we saw the cracks of it a little bit doing COVID. We suddenly are like, oh my God, we cannot manufacturing so many of our essential products. We cannot ship them. There is lack of resiliency. We heard about this lack of resiliency constantly doing COVID that cracks on.”

“I have two answers for that. Before I talk about the West, in any country that technology play a big role, you see growth, prosperity, and freedom because technology making you get out of the propaganda that you get in the mosque or in whatever they enforce you to learn. And that's why in those dark countries, they will shut down the internet and they will control what you can do in social media or not because they know if you will be exposed to technology, you will challenge those radicals mindset. Our job, your job, my job is to push the technology as far as we can into this globe. And every time that you will have a society touching technology at scale, you will see good things happening. So before I'm talking about the West, go back to the West then.”

“We need to ask sorry for both of us because the people I know in Gaza, your house is now getting bombed. And I'm sorry for them. And to my friends that is an Arab doctor in the south of Israel, that now, do you know that Israel took care in the Israel hospital system, the Hamas terrorists that we captured, next to the bed to the people that they killed? Because we don't view the same way that they view life. We believe a life. We don't believe in death. And even to the worst enemy of us, we will take care of them because that's what we believe in. So this is maybe why in some way I see this small, shiny life in the far, in this old big dark is because I had those conversations with those people. And I know that all of them wants the same things that I want.”

“And they say you are worse than the Jews because you live amongst them and kill the whole family. All of them have one thing in common, Patrick, and is they don't believe that these people are serving their interest. They don't believe that these people should be part of the Islam. Their shame of this behavior is like where in the Islam it says that you can burn babies and cut the head of women. Where in the Islam it can say that you can rape. They don't view their behavior as the one that's representing them and they all want one thing and one thing in common. They want to go to focus on the things that they care about and is raising kids in a safe manner, having them have a great education so they can have a good job and can have a good healthcare system, the very basic stuff. They came and asked me, sorry. And I'm like, you don't need to ask me sorry.”

“I have in the last three weeks I did about 25 calls like that. People that live right now in Gaza, civilians that I know, Israeli Arabs, people don't know. They call Israel an upright country and genocides and all of that. There is a one and a half million Arabs, Israel, is that their rights and my rights are the same. You have the same passport, same IDs, same rights, exactly the same as I am as a Jew. Actually, a lot of them are walking with my dad in this construction company and I had multiple of conversation with them. I have a really good friend that he is a doctor in the South that is an Israeli Arab that unfortunately his nephew is one of those kids that got slaughtered in the South. These are Arabs by the way. And they told them when they attack, we are Arabs as well.”

“Of strengthening the economy of this country, building the industrial backbone, showing the world that we are powerful than ever, that we are united than ever. The other sides will put their arms down and join us again. The name of not religion, not God, nothing, in the name of having life. Do you know that Hamas, one of the principal, is they say that they start the life after death. They believe in death. I believe in life. And if we are not going to unite against those terror organizations and show the other sides that after we will destroy those terror organizations, we will give them the hand back immediately to go and build the bridges.

I traveled to Morocco. I traveled to Jordan. I saw the people that want to move on unrelated if I'm a Jew in Israeli or in Europe and Arab. We want to at the end of the day The people want the same things. They want to have food on their table. They want to have their kids have a good education and a healthcare system. That's about it.

“I have a lot to say just to be clear me being Israeli entrepreneur ex-special forces not mean that I don't have a lot of feedback and frustration with the Israeli little little. I do not think we did a good job in Israel as a leadership in the last couple of years to United the country and find a way to live with our neighbors by helping them build and develop their economy so they are pushing out those terror organizations out of their society. I think we did a bad job. I also think that in this country, in America, I'm a dual citizen, we did not do a good job as well. I see too much hate between the two parties. I see bureaucracy and cheap politics are coming on the way of approving budgets or the Speaker of the House, for God's sake, in order to be able to operate and deal with this very large conflicts that are coming in our backyard. It's not by a coincidence that we have two walls now against our side and what we believe, one in Ukraine and one in Israel that is being attacked in about the same time. It's not a coincidence.”

And I think the impact of these companies just got way more important. If I can build Teslas and SpaceX and Vulcan forms and write machines and waves in this world, I know that the West part of the world and my camp are going to have a much more control mode.

“They care about that point, the radical Islam people, and the people that are pushing them as their proxies. So that's what we can do. I can do that. Goes back to your question on the social media. The reason he didn't see it in 9-11 is because social media does not exist. We need to wake up because in our constitution, we talked about freedom of speech. Freedom of speech cannot be against safety. If someone say we should push the Jews into a gas chambers in the middle of Manhattan, it cannot be in our part of our society because that's not freedom of speech. If a professor in Columbia University is talking about how the Israelis doing genocide, this is not a freedom speech. This is a hate propaganda. I think we are going to walk a very fine line, Patriarch, especially in this country between a freedom of speech.”

We were that close, Patrick, for me, to travel to Saudi because the pen was open and the paper was about to get ink, and that's why Iran pushed Hamas to do the attack, because the Abrams agreements between Israel and the Middle Eastern countries is not in the plan of Iran and what they want to create in the world. The only way is for both sides to talk about how we can help each other build businesses, build hospitals, build research organizations, universities, not to constantly fight because you're a Jew and I'm a Muslim and he's Christian.

“Is the same patriarch is the exact same exact exact root cause of the number one, I believe, biggest risk for modern society. And it's this well-organized propaganda machine that their mission in life is to create a chaos in the Western world. We saw a little bit of that in the previous election in this country with the social media fake news that some outside stream was turning the algorithm in the same way. We are seeing that right now with young kids in these countries that basically getting fake news and deep fake and propaganda mainly through TikTok. And we saw it in the war with Ukraine and Russia. Same social media that positioning the Ukraine people as the one that”

“All of those radical extremists are Shi's. The Persian people actually soon. They view them as a third type citizen. But it's easy for them to not get their hands dirty by basically funding those terror organizations and push them to do the terrible things that we were seeing in 9-11. Many of the terror attacks in Europe, of course, what's happening in the wall, in Afghanistan and Syria, and of course what we are seeing now in Gaza and Israel. When you say because you got your Twitter or your TikTok to tell you the Israel is abounding Gaza and you walk in the streets of Stanford University and you say from the river to the sea what you mean is that the country of Israel should be eliminated. You're absolutely right”

“I mentioned they all believe in a radical Islam. And actually, just to be very clear, this is the opposite of what a lot of Muslims will think about. But to give you a sense, the commonality in all of those organizations is if you are not believed in their Islam, you should die. Women will never drive cars. Women will never be teachers. Women will never be able to walk in the streets without the full, full cover. Gay people will be tortured and die. In the name of what they believe in, they will be willing to kill anyone in this world. They do not believe in economical freedom. They do not believe even in innovation. They do not want to focus their time and kill cancers or global warming. They want to focus all of their time. That's what they do on propaganda of why the Islam should rule the world. And they took the Quran and they twisted to support their radical ideas.”

“Unfortunately, if you will look on other regions that the radical Islamists controlled those regions besides death, there is nothing. Gaza, there is nothing in Gaza. There is no single development area besides death. Lebanon, Hezbollah took it over. There is nothing there. ISIS in Syria, there is nothing there. Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, there is nothing there. And my main point here is now go back to the perspective zooming out is radical Islam is on a mission to basically control and kill anyone that don't believe in their ideology. Unfortunately, my perspective, we are on the very, very one yard line of a third world war of two camps that some of them are being supported by this extremist radical Islam.”

“That also, based on facts, Israel is the third largest country per capita inventory investment. Israel more than 14% of the GDP of Israel is coming from tech. Israel is being called startup nation. Israel invented the ways that you navigate your car with mobile, what you're using your ADAS in your car, the computer that you're using, the chip that has been designed.core has been in Intel Israel. Israel have all of them multinationality tech companies, the largest R&D centers, Amazon, Apple, Google, Facebook, etc. Why I say all of that is not to pound the chase of the Israelis, is because Israel believe that economical development research, education is the way that we should run the country based on democracy.”
