That will complicate NATO‘s doctrine of using non western, non white cannon fodder (Turks arenr considered white and greeks were only accepted as white a few decades ago hence racial slurs against them in the anglosphere and the west). All that remains are the super soldiers of the Bharat empire.

unless this is posturing, you can view this as an internal civil war amongst western elites in par with WW1. The globohomo atlanticists fighting with red team MAGA, only they thought insulting trump by denying him his Nobel prize would be the end of it when in actuality, it may well cost them Greenland amongst other trade privileges. Ever wonder why Macron tried so hard to get trump to direct his efforts against China? Because thats how it’s “supposed to be”. The white nations bullying the coloureds only the trump presidency is hijacked by Zionist factions who see white nations as no more than the same cattle outside the “garden”.

Germany is an occupied country. The U.S has the largest air base and troops there, the Ramstein air base in Germany, so if the Germans do not back down when the U.S decides to make a move, the U.S can do a Napole

This is just the EU posturing. Germany is an occupied country with the largest American military presence at the Ramstein air base. If Germany decides to involve itself in any shape or form, Trump can pull a Napoleon on the German government and arrest and dissolve their government elites, just like how Napoleon dissolved the French Republican government in 1799. The EU is weak politically and militarily, and this is a great opportunity for Trump and the U.S neocons to take whatever it wants with little to no resistance. If the EU resists, the U.S can allow the Russians to advance further than Ukraine and threaten the EU, and Trump can then give the EU an ultimatum of either give up Greenland, or we will not defend you against Russian advancement. The EU will capitulate, no doubt, since the EU is completely dependent on American military power. This will be like taking candy from a baby by daddy Trump.

It sounds like that America's oil majors are crying for corporation welfare. The Trump regime may well oblige and hand out substantial subsidies to the oil companies, because most of their CEOs and the largest shareholders are Trump's buddies. While the oil is not profitable, the oil oligarchies involved can still enrich themselves. Eventually, it's taxpayers that bear the financial burden. It's socialism for the corporations, and merciless capitalism for the sheeple.

Today's philosophical musings: the life of one Iranian protester is worth more than 1,000 Americans who are killed by the ICE. By the same token, the life of one Hong Kong rioter is worth more than 10,000 Palestinians who are killed by Israel, except that not a single Hong Kong rioter was killed.

Does the US lack energy? I don't think so. The main reason it's losing to China is because it's being out-innovated, not because there's not enough energy to power its industrialization. The US is simply lashing out in any way it can and Trump wants to make a legacy for himself. He already knows he's not going to be known as the president who defeated the China threat so the president who took Greenland sounds nice.

Yeah, exactly, agree completely.

Trump is a manipulator, who tries to move the crowd one way or another.

It is rare that someone can stay in the spotlight for decades, but that is Trump.

This take down of Maduro WWF style really is just a distraction.

Venezuela produces about 700,000 barrels of oil per day, while places like Saudi Arabia and Russia, both produce over 10 million bpd of crude. Venezuela is just not that big of a producer.

So, why all the attention? That is an obvious question. Seems like a distraction for internal problems.

Blah blah blah, if anyone is bored, and want to know more details, seems like the basic facts still are the major factors to this situation.

President Trump says he will control or own Venezuela oil. Whatever. But there is an assumption here that American oil companies will invest to increase output.

Currently Venezuela oil production percent of world oil production is rather very low. Not sure how low, I would guess below 5% (heck, gonna to look it up, and Google AI says it is 1%).

Even that 1% of oil production, if that increases, that will put pressure on the oil price, and the US shale industry needs $60 barrel of oil to be profitable. (Currently oil is trading about $58 USD).

So what can Trump really do here? Get US corporation to develop more oil wells in Venezuela then sell the output to China at a premium.

When donkeys fly.

:cool:

Iran didn't collapse, but no one can deny it got its handed to them in a very embarassing manner. It's one thing for your enemy have superior fire power over you. It's another for your country to be known for having one of the most ruthless internal security apparatuses in the world and yet be so compromised, foreign agents are able to set up literal drone bases near your capital. Iran still had strategic depth and could've salvaged the situation if they pushed forward with nukes and rallied its population. Instead, it still continued to pussyfoot on nukes in the hopes of reaching some kind of deal with US and continued to alienate its population with its corruption and poor policies. Like seriously, Iran is a desert country and you mean to tell me the government couldn't even manage its water resources properly?

To all the people who want the ministry of foreign affairs to basically to slam the file documents down on a table and go, "Fine, I'll do it myself!" like in a movie, how much engagement is the CPC responsible for? With the level of competence Iran displayed, nothing short of occupying the country like what Trump wants with Venezuela would turn it around. Sure, some would point to Ukraine, but on top of being a multi-nation effort in addition to the US, Ukraine despite its poverty and corruption was motivated to defend themselves against the Russians because they all had the hope of building their country to mirror a Western European one. On the other hand, the Islamic revolutionary ideaology was basically forced on Iran's population, so outside of external threats like Saddam and Israel its people are not motivated in the slightest to die for it. For China, supporting it would be tantamount to the US's support for the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, ie. a total money sinkhole.

Best to see how the situation unfolds and work with whatever.

Most likely the protests will be crushed, as they've always been. But then you'll say that because there could be protests again, it's still not safe enough to invest. The core problem is economic. It wouldn't be hard for China to help with development, paid for with oil and gas. Corruption is a consequence of the snuggling, sanctions busting economy. If China gave a way out of sanctions, that would also improve. Just like China used to be incredibly corrupt in an earlier stage of development. It's not that the Iranian leadership is unusually incompetent compared to other politicians, it's that there's no way for a middle income country to develop when sabotaged at every step by the West.

So if China refuses to invest because it's afraid of taking risks and the west attacks anyway, then that only leaves becoming pro western as an option. The former crown prince may be an awful human being, but if putting him on the throne will make the people rich, then they'll support that. If China actually made good on the 25 year agreement or gave Iran better market access or help with non US financial services, Iranians wouldn't need to protest. It's not about Islamic ideology, it's all the economy
