Here is an adapted and more literary version of the provided text for an English-speaking audience:

1️⃣ **Surrounded by Lithium:** Our modern world is saturated with lithium-ion batteries. Phones, tablets, electric vehicles—from sleek buses to golf carts driven by the likes of Donald Trump—medical equipment, virtual reality headsets, cameras, and more. These batteries power our devices and our lives. When the Nobel Prize committee awarded the chemistry prize for lithium-ion battery technology a few years ago, they praised it as revolutionary. Since its commercial debut in 1991, lithium-ion batteries have laid the groundwork for a wireless society, freeing us from fossil fuels and offering unparalleled convenience to humanity.


2️⃣ **A Deadly Replication:** Some individuals (whose motives are perhaps unsurprising) have developed replicas of lithium-ion batteries. These imitations look and function just like the real thing: they charge, hold power, and even pass routine safety checks—whether it's a quick airport scan or a security checkpoint at, say, the Iranian embassy in Beirut. Yet, these replicas have a lethal secret: they are designed to detonate on command, causing devastating damage.


3️⃣ **Manufactured at Scale:** We're not talking about a one-off device for a single operation (think Mossad assassinations using cellphones or the Taliban's explosive-rigged camera that killed Ahmad Shah Massoud). These are mass-produced, industrially replicated batteries that have been inserted into commercial devices, intended for widespread use by unsuspecting individuals. The technology has been tested on a group highly concerned with its own safety, and the results were chillingly successful.


4️⃣ **A Grim Calculation:** The "COVID-like ratio" of fatalities to injuries (20 dead to 4,000 affected) stems from the correlation between battery size and explosive potential. A battery from a tablet, laptop, or large premium smartphone can hold more explosive material—while still maintaining the look and functionality of a legitimate device—compared to something like a pager battery. The damage caused by such devices far exceeds minor injuries; we’re talking about catastrophic harm. The greatest risk for such innovations? Commercial aviation, which will be fundamentally altered once these devices are used in practice.


5️⃣ **Things That Shouldn’t Be Done:** Some acts are not performed, not because they are technically impossible, but because they *shouldn’t* be done. The true impact of the September 11th attacks, which were recently commemorated, was not in the fact that planes crashed or buildings fell. It was the creativity of individuals who combined these otherwise unremarkable events into a single, organized plot. That changed everything.


6️⃣ **An Irreversible Shift:** The ability to industrially produce barely detectable explosive devices, embedding them into common, everyday gadgets, can be likened to the evolution from "smallpox-infected blankets" to modern biological warfare. Where once there was cottage industry and small-scale operations, we now have factories capable of mass-producing what used to be hand-crafted for special agents like James Bond. This shift will bring neither peace nor security to the Middle East—or anywhere else.


7️⃣ **A Battery-Dependent Civilization:** We are a civilization powered by lithium. And while the so-called "civilized world" is more dependent on these batteries than any "feudal terrorist" in the Middle East, the challenge we now face is unprecedented. Across the globe, in countless labs, offices, and bunkers—both official and underground—people are scrutinizing lithium-ion batteries and the devices they power, viewing them through a new and more dangerous lens. Trying to separate the "good guys" from the "bad guys," to discern who is defending and who is attacking, is a pointless exercise. The events unfolding now go far beyond the bounds of any one conflict in the Middle East.

This adaptation maintains the original intent and tone, while making it more accessible to an international audience. The text is structured to provide a narrative flow and explain the significance of lithium batteries in today's global context, both as tools for convenience and as potential weapons.
