Zelensky is going to take some of the richest farmland in western Ukraine and let it be the international dumping grounds of all sorts of toxic and probably lethal chemicals which no doubt will leach into the water table. Let's not even mention the already radioactive munitions fired there.

Is this a new type of biowarfare? "Heavily pollute and irradiate sources of food near enemy nations". Weird parallels between Fukushima fish and now Ukrainian grain.

I don't even want to think about the possibility this is for "depopulating the Global South". It is Soros after all.
He's a US puppet after all Ukaine has the most Chernozem soil in the world it was a thorn on the side of US agro giants for a long time due to its potential

It is desperation. US and EU money is drying up as political resistance grows against giving Ukraine a blank check. They are more or less going down the same route as every other imploding economy with state and public assets getting sold off for money.

The “is this a new sort of warfare” thing is way too long term, complex, and unpredictable. This sort of plan would be measured on the scale of several decades to take effort and no one is interested in that sort of stuff.

(South Korea) to retire (F-35A) fighter jet struck by bird​

The flagship fifth-generation US fighter jet has met its match in South Korea: a bird. The South Korean Air Force has decided to retire an F-35A that was damaged when it hit an eagle last year, because repairs would cost more than the $85 million cost of buying a new one.

The decision was announced on Friday, when the Air Force revealed that an analysis of the damaged jet showed that repairs would cost at least 140 billion won ($108 million) and would take four years to complete. The plane’s maker, US defense contractor Lockheed Martin, assisted in the review, which found that the bird strike had damaged around 300 components, including the engine, navigation system and airframe.

US officials have touted the F-35 as the world’s most advanced stealth fighter jet and have sold it to more than a dozen allies around the world. The “A” variant is the most common and is designed to take off from conventional runways.
South Korea currently has 40 F-35As, including the jet that was damaged beyond repair, and it has as many as 25 more on order. The Air Force said it will find a way to make use of the retired jet, such as training mechanics.

The jet was flying at an altitude of 330 meters (1,082 feet) when it reportedly struck an eagle over North Chungcheong province, in central South Korea. The bird was sucked into the plane’s air intake, damaging systems required for navigation and operating landing gear. The pilot made an emergency belly landing at a base in Seosan, about 80km (50 miles) southwest of Seoul.

South Korea’s military has used its F-35As in joint drills with US troops this year, including a show of force carried out hours after North Korea conducted a missile test in March.

The F-35 program has been plagued by cost overruns, malfunctions and delays. Some versions of the jet were temporarily grounded for safety inspections last year, after a crash in Texas. The US F-35 fleet’s mission capable rate – the percentage of time, on average, that an aircraft was ready to perform its assigned task – was 55% as of March 2023, according to the US Government Accountability Office.

Interesting development. I think it's one of those behind-the-scene deals Xi and Biden agreed on in exchange for China's concessions regarding fentanyl and resumption of military communication.

Definitely, not. The China hawks are sinking this bill because it is not hard enough on China. Not because of Xi-Biden meeting. Must be freaking out about Huawei new phone.

Old Plan = Report investments to the government

New Plan = Outlaw investments into China

Johnson has assigned Barr, McHenry, McCaul and Gallagher, as well as Majority Leader Steve Scalise, to hash out the issue in the first quarter of 2024, Barr said.
McCaul has been working on a Plan B: a standalone bill that actually restricts outbound investment to China, going beyond the notification required in the original Senate measure.
Texas Senator John Cornyn said Johnson agreed to “consider” bringing that bill up for a floor vote after the Foreign Affairs Committee unanimously approved it on Wednesday.

Unanimous approval in the Foreign Affairs Committee made up of 45% Democrats. More or less suggests this is going to easily pass the voting process sometime early next year.

Big if true: China and Russia are planning a special economic and high-tech zone in the province of Heilongjiang, centered around Harbin.
  • The blueprint is expected to go before the National People’s Congress for approval during the legislature’s annual session next March.
  • Over the next decade, the central Chinese government is budgeting some 10 trillion RMB ($1.4 trillion) for the enterprise, half of which would go to Harbin.
  • Harbin would be elevated to the status of direct-administered city, joining Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Chongqing.
  • A clutch of leading institutes of higher learning -- including Peking University -- would move their main campuses to Harbin. The universities of National Defense and National Defense Technology would merge with Harbin Engineering University to form a new entity focused on defense industries in Harbin. Key high-tech research institutes and companies in Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen would move to Harbin.
  • The People’s Bank of China (central bank) would establish its HQ for northern China in Harbin, as well as markets for the trading of stock and commodities futures.
  • A proposal for China to administer areas in the Russia Far East for a century has reportedly been approved by the lower house of the Russian Duma (legislature). A Sino-Russian Management Committee would be set up in Harbin to oversee relevant activities. People with Heilongjiang residence would be allowed to travel in and out of the designated Russian Far East regions as well as settle there.
  • The new Heilongjiang SEZ would have its own customs area and no import taxes.

You’re talking about western elites who opened bio weapon research labs in Ukraine and the former soviet republics which researched gene select ethnic bioweapons targeting Slavic and chinese genes. Why wouldn’t they also contaminate the environment of the Slavs? Anglo Zionists are amongst the worse humans imaginable.

Demonstration of Chinese communism in action, or what the Chinese call their version of democracy.
This is what the Anglo west wants to hide from the world, this image is the sort of thing that invite Bastille days and revolution into the western capitals and why they have been so obsessed and psycho about containing China. Chinas rise is the deposing of their incompetent reign.

Or perhaps the Anglo western populace are simply weak and lack the revolutionary vigour of the Chinese people to enact change.
