When I first saw the movie "Roaring across the Horizon" I thought "Was all the secrecy necessary? To pull the troops directly off the Korean front line and ship them to the ass end of nowhere known as Lop Nur, not even giving them a chance for them to write to family telling them they are still alive".

The thing that made me realise the necessity was the assassination of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh last year. Iranians should really step up security around their nuclear program if they want to succeed.

This is actually a very bad move for US, it's causing terrible damage to people's faith in US giving protection to those it promises.

So US has long promised to shield Taiwan from reunification. Is it sending troops? No. Is it selling ROC weapons that might actually matter in a forced reunification (say F-35)? No. All it's doing is selling obsolete junk at inflated prices to ROC, and we can clearly see the pace of it ramp up as we approach end game.

So if US promise ROC protection but instead is only interested in using them as an ATM, what does that say about the value of a promise from the US?
Many Americans have this terrible idea that as long they "support" Taiwan, they can bluff and prevent China from armed reunification. This stems from years of propaganda and belief in American (& western) superiority. See 52% polled now that says they support American intervention in a Taiwan scenario, and I am sure this proportion is growing.

Of course that's mostly just the general public who falls for it, or so one would think. Not sure what the politicians are thinking. All I can conclude is many of elites are also delusional and have collective lost it.

The thing is, US and DPP moves have long abandoned the realm of strategic thinking. All they care about is scoring PR points with their voter base.

Even so, other world leaders are looking at this and having professional people calculating weather or not the things US is selling ROC actually matter or are just rubbish. They will know US isn't serious about defending Taiwan and is really to sell them out after making off with their money.
 
I think it is completely nutz brother.

Remember the Vietnam War, and the Americans were saying stuff like, "We had to burn down the village, to save the village."

They had to burn down the village to save it from communism. Since they destroyed the village, the village was saved from communism.

We cannot make this stuff up. :oops:

So now they are saying that they must keep the sea lanes open in the South China Sea, where most of China trade is shipped to and from ASEAN.

China and ASEAN probably be each other's largest trading partner by quite a bit in 20 years. Here we have the Western powers insisting they have to keep the sea lanes open for that.

Might as well burn down that village again. After all, that is how they won the Vietnam War.

:p

Typical western rationalization of their evil deeds.
It was how the west rationalized their genocide of locals.
They rationalize genocide to locals to save their soul for christian god.

Now they rationalize their evil deeds in the name of their plutocratic and hegemonic democracy.

Considering how such actions have long since been a capital insult to what Christianity should stand for, it’s is no wonder that so many have abandoned the faith due to how the west uses Christianity as a vehicle to commit evil. Hence given how God has never stood for such evil deeds, the current predicament that the USA is in right now should be a testament to not only the long term consequences to all the evils being done, that according to the words of the Lord (and not how the west uses the faith as a vehicle to harm others), such sins should be punishable by death and in this case, the same fate as that of all the empires of the past. In case any one has doubts, one must look no further then the current fortunes of Russia and China together compared to the entire western world and the very leaders that carry the nation, heck is anyone in the western leadership actually smart or is just coasting on pure hatred alone. If those so called Christians in the USA and the west could look at things with an unbiased lens, it could easily show who God is favoring right now but given how the current west cannot comprehend such things, the collapse of the west is only a matter of time.

Ah, they have a G7 foreign ministers conference this weekend. Surely we all know what this global white supremacism cartel and their yellow stooge will talk about.

There was plane flying from Greece to Lithuania in summer that was bring down in Belarus. Baltic sanctioned Belarus and now Baltics facing sky high energy and food prices. China is seen as backing Belarus. and it has made practical investment like building this Geely factory.
This background behind EU and Lithuania.

China was not such pathetic to allow those cameras from UN/IAEA installed in Xinjiang facilities!

Imagine Iranian side just announced in wide open its important locations for Israeli attacks with the collaboration from the usual suspects! Does anyone here really trust in IAEA?

Iranian officials are investigating whether NUCLEAR MONITORING CAMERAS set up by International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) at sensitive facilities were sabotaged and manipulated by Israeli intelligence in order to conduct espionage and strikes on said facilities.

Iran’s envoy to the UK, Mohsen Baharvand, repeated the allegations Friday, and asked the IAEA for time to probe the matter. "There was a sabotage there by Israel and some cameras were damaged and there was some investigation going on," the ambassador said according to Bloomberg.

Previously the Iranians informed the UN and IAEA that "its ‘security and judicial authorities’ were investigating whether the terrorists have used the Agency cameras to launch an attack on the complex" - in reference to the alleged Israeli strikes.

As The Times of Israel details, it's led to an ongoing spat over continued monitoring. Iran has blocked or refused to repair monitoring devices at some sites, while the IAEA is demanding further access. "In September, Iran acknowledged that it had removed several damaged surveillance cameras installed by the IAEA at the Karaj site. It has since refused requests to repair the surveillance equipment damaged in the June attack," the report said.

After they shot down their own plane while trying to retaliate against the Americans, I have very little confidence in the competence of the Iranians.
