Japan destroyer inadvertently entered China waters, captain sacked​

Japan has told China that a Maritime Self-Defense Force destroyer that sailed into Chinese territorial waters in July despite repeated warnings by Chinese vessels did so inadvertently, diplomatic sources said Sunday, adding that the captain has been replaced for what was viewed as a serious error.
Observers say the incident, which occurred as the destroyer Suzutsuki was monitoring Chinese military drills on the high seas, calls into question the skill levels of MSDF personnel. Tokyo is also considering disciplinary measures against other crew members, the sources said.

Japan has unofficially informed China about its findings as well as the captain's dismissal. The incident triggered a protest from Beijing.

In the early morning of July 4, the Suzutsuki sailed for some 20 minutes in Chinese waters within 12 nautical miles (22 kilometers) of the coast of Zhejiang Province.
When an MSDF base made an inquiry after noticing the destroyer's entry into Chinese waters, the male officer with the rank of commander, serving as the Suzutsuki's captain, responded that he was "not aware" the ship had sailed into an "off-limits area," according to the sources.

The officer had assumed command of the ship in May this year. An investigation conducted following the incident also revealed that there were flaws in relaying information from other crew members on duty when the destroyer entered Chinese waters, the sources said.

"Inadvertently" ;)

'My daughter would have been dead by now': When a ‘monkey attack’ in UP foiled man’s bid to rape 6-year old girl​


MEERUT: A troop of monkeys purportedly intervened to save a 6-year-old girl, a UKG student, from a rape attempt in

and is on the run, police said on Sunday.
The girl's parents claimed that a man had lured their child to an abandoned house on Saturday, where he took off her clothes and was attempting to sexually assault her, when a few monkeys aggressively rushed towards him, forcing him to leave the minor and flee.
After reaching home, the traumatised child narrated her ordeal to her family and informed them how the monkeys "saved her from the accused".
Her father said, "My daughter was playing outside when the accused took her away. The man could be seen in nearby CCTV footage, walking on a narrow lane with my daughter. He is yet to be identified though. He also threatened my child that he would kill me... My daughter would have been dead by now if the monkeys had not intervened."

India is never beating the allegations.

Construction and mining labor... lol. Often they are begging on the street. The ones which do work regular jobs you will likely find in sales, trading, or something like that. A lot of them are merchants of some sort. Gypsies doing heavy labor. Nice joke.
I'm not discrediting your experiences with them. But historically they have been involved. Feudal times they did hard labor and under WWII German occupation they also did hard labor. One of their names Băieși is basically Romanian for "miners." Soviet times they were part of the mass industrialization and did construction. Their craftsman heritage also carried over to now so you get these gypsy handymen.

There also were good amounts of them that received proper education especially during the Soviet era. Many high performers / doctors and nurses / politicos today disguise their origins to evade stigma.

They clearly have a culture based around poverty, patriarchy, and lack of education, but talking as if their complete estrangement is their own fault is absurd... No kind of recompense for the Holocaust either. Still calling them Indians or Egyptians when they've been in Europe since 1100.

Wake me up when India makes an EUV machine... playing Chess as a metric is just falling into Anglo medevil frame
Been thinking about it. While chess is about abstract thinking and calculations, wasting peoples braincells on a game like that full time might be a a mistake. The USSR dominated the chess scene for years and yet in real life they made a massive blunder to throw away their government system. So basically it hasn't really helped them make the best moves. Kasparov with all his talent couldn't even do politics right to become chess federation president.

That doesn't discount China talent. But the thing is they just happen to be good at it even though they don't even care about it as much as Go. So the obsession is not there.

Everyone should watch this video, if we are interested in how the world works.

Suffice to say, how the world used to work with the USD hand in hand with the US banking system, that world is over, gone for good.

Blockchain technology with its distributed ledgers, allowed this to happen.

The dumb American politician, cannot get their heads around this. Even if they do, they would be in denial. I never heard of Tether that app/company. They use USD but totally outside of the US banking system. Anything on a blockchain is outside of traditional ways and paths.

They do get it, US tried to shutdown telegram blockchain back in 2018... it was the largest ICO at the time, they sent the SEC after Durov the way US went after Huawei

Going a bit off topic.. when Japanese cars entered the American market, the fear was of foreign competition. But America still had a decent chance to compete with it's domestic cars. In today's case though with Chinese EV's, American manufacturers don't have anything at all to really compete. Tesla doesn't count because it's on the luxury-end, not something the average consumer can afford. An $11,000 BYD Seagull is more accessible than any petrol/diesel car in America, forget EV.

It looks like to me that the US is waiting for it's domestic manufacturers to come up with something similar to have even somewhat of a level playing field. But that "coming up" just isn't happening.
US has been waiting for its drone industry to do the same.... never happened... skydio was the last US consumer drone company and they closed shop ,got bought out by CIA and strictly defense military now....

I thought maybe it was because US wanted to clear the way for commercial droning instead...

Amazon has been testing a concept since 2017, its finna be 2025 and where are the drones?!??

The Germans in WW2 did that to all sorts of people. They also made Slavs, like Soviets or Poles, do hard labor. Unfortunately people forget that lots of Gypsies died under German death camps. The Jews have way better PR.

The Gypsies much like the Jews and other groups of people were directly targeted for extermination by the Nazis.

There also were good amounts of them that received proper education especially during the Soviet era. Many high performers / doctors and nurses / politicos today disguise their origins to evade stigma.
It occasionally happens that they get good education and jobs. But in that case they are often ostracized by other Gypsies. Not just other Europeans. So it is not surprising to see them hide their origin.

They clearly have a culture based around poverty, patriarchy, and lack of education, but talking as if their complete estrangement is their own fault is absurd... No kind of recompense for the Holocaust either. Still calling them Indians or Egyptians when they've been in Europe since 1100.
It is not just their own fault, there is also no excuse for persecuting them just for being Gypsies, but let's not casually ignore reality and create embellishments about their actual condition.
