@KYli India may regret their decision for not standing up for Iran and follow the US instruction of not buying its oil....LOL. Iran had offer China a friendly low price for its effort, now let see what India will do.:cool:

A clear-headed statesman should and would not regret because they make the decision after considering all pros and cons even if the result may pan out differently which is part of the consideration. Most importantly they make decision based on faith, value, right and wrong, not on a short term opportunity. If things go south they should and would bite the bullet than regret.

However from my observation, Modi and the whole Indian leadership abandoned Iran when Trump threatened, they picked China at the border when Trump send USN to SCS, they stopped the border confrontation right after Trump left the office.

So yes, I think Modi will regret because he and his colleagues are opportunists. For that it is easy to predict what they will do, do what they are good at doing "taking opportunities whatever is possible". In doing so, they are always being the one chasing others not leading others.

Any agreement with the US must be viewed as subject to nullification once the presidency ends; the USG has a dog and pony show where they violate agreements made with previous administrations and the USG bureaucrats, ie the "court eunuchs" blame the current president for breaking their word.

As a show of good faith, the US must release Meng and extradite Cotton and Pompeo to face the People's Justice.

What I would say is that the world does not revolve around the Americans anymore. Does not matter what they do. Either they want to continue to struggle, and not gain much (and financed by money off the QE). That is up to them.

The Yemen rebels with help from Iran attacked the Saudi oil facilities, and the Americans stood around and did nothing for their best friend in the region. Their weapons did not even work.

Meh, all countries hack other countries all the time. I think the only difference is

1st USA mostly makes targeted hacks and get some data while China just hacks everything and everyone and gets all the data

2nd China gets hacked too but it doesn't disclose it publicly. So if you followed the news you would think that the USA is the getting hacked day in day out from China lol

I stand corrected!

I concede the point, as I was only thinking about the Persian Gulf, and not the wider region, but with their history, we cannot think of any of that, in isolation.

Cannot think of any Seinfeld type of joke that is appropriate, I'll wait till next time.

:p

It ain't that easy to diversify rare earth production after all lol

"You’re ten years away from even coming close to having a fully diversified supply chain. To open a mine is not like building a factory. To open a mine can take three to four years of planning, then permits for two years and another three years if everything goes smoothly, which it rarely does, then two years to build. You’ve already spent eight years before you’ve even started production.”
