“The Financial Times has published a new article titled ‘Humanoid robot start-up backed by Eric Trump in talks with Israel’s military’ which is exactly as horrifying as its headline suggests. The article features photographs of bipedal armored robots which look like they came from the set of a post-apocalyptic Hollywood movie, and opens as follows: ‘A company backed by Eric Trump is in talks with the Israel Defense Forces to supply humanoid robots to patrol Hamas tunnels beneath Gaza and potentially engage in combat. Foundation Future Industries co-founder and president Mike LeBlanc said he had met senior Israeli military officials for preliminary discussions in September and toured tunnels with the US start-up’s Phantom MK1. ‘We’re in direct talks with the chief of staff of the Israel Defense Forces,’ the former US Marine told the FT, adding that his company was in discussions to supply up to 1,000 Phantoms.'” (11/12/26)
