Kim Jong Un became world famous overnight when he met Donald Trump in person in Singapore in year 2018, at a young age of 36. That was his first trip outside North Korea since taking over as head of state. The world's attention was on this young man. Thanks to Donald Trump, the most powerful man in the world, to arrange the Summit in Singapore, for the world to take notice of Kim.
On 7 Dec 22, a similar event took place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. A handsome young prince, age 37, met Xi Jinping of China, a man of equal importance as Donald Trump. The world was once again looking at this young man, the successor designate to be the next King of Saudi Arabia. His father, King Saud, has bestowed in him the full authority to assume the duties on his behalf, to manage the affairs of the state of Saudi Arabia.
The Summit with Xi Jinping, followed immediately by another Summit with 14 heads of the Arab World, were the works of Mohammed Bin Salman, the man that made the two Summits possible. It was like his coming out party. Xi eventually met 21 Arab leaders in the Summit with the Arab World, a feat not easily achieveable under intense pressure and objection from the Americans. Not only Saudi Arabia, but all the leaders of the Arab World must have been under intense pressure not to attend this Summit. Though officially nothing was said or reported in the main media, the Americans must be hard at work running in and out of the capitals of the Arab World, banging tables and issuing threats to all Arab leaders that were invited to the Summit.
To make this Summit, not just between Saudi Arabia and China happened, but to bring together the leaders of the Arab World to meet the Chinese President, is a feat not for the faint hearted. To successfully bring this about, to have 21 Arab leaders making the trip to Riyadh, mark a major achievement for this young Prince, confirming his ability and potential as a respectable leader of the Arab World. He has done Saudi Arabia proud. He has done the Arab World proud.
Mohammed Bin Salman aka MBS, has made his mark as a world leader in the making. The world is standing up to notice this man, once insulted by Biden in bad taste. He brushed this aside, even received Biden in Jeddah and rebuffed his order to cut oil production to the displeasure of the most powerful man in the world. Now he has opened his arms to welcome another world's most powerful man in Xi Jinping to his Palace to party.
MBS has spoken, not in words, but in deeds, that he is a man not to be pushed around. He is his own man. He has his own dreams and plans for the good of his country. The world has taken note of this, so have the Americans.
A young and promising leader has emerged in the Arab World, and his name is Mohammed Bin Salman or MBS.
Notice the quietness of the Western MSM concerning the visit of Xi to the Middle East. But believe me, they are plotting evil behind the scene. Even Biden did not get the kind of welcome, not even close, and they are watching with hurt and jealousy. The welcoming party at the airport, the colourful fly past, the 21 gun salute, were the epitome of the kind of respect they bestowed upon Xi. It tells the world the importance of that trip, and nothing can hide the visual image played across the world. They can try to kid themselves about downplaying the important event, but they cannot hide the reality.
ReplyDeleteJust like the G20 meeting in Bali, the Western media tried it's best to play down the meetings Xi had with some of the leaders, claiming that Xi achieved nothing with all the leaders he met. What did Biden achieve at the G20? Total washout and not worthy of mention. So, let them kid themselves and let their own people believe in their own MSM lies and propaganda. The truth will surface somehow.
And just like all the gloating about the sanctions on Russia and it's collapse and of Ukraine winning the war, no one is believing them after ten long months. They are now wondering how did Russia managed to keep firing missiles, and has still not run out of them. To make things more ridiculous, the health of Putin has been negatively 'weaponised' too to fool everyone. Putin was supposed to pass on six months after the start of the war.
And everyday, China is collapsing and they even put in dates to make themselves even more stupid. Gordon Chang's yearly forecast is still not on target, and keeps extending from one year to the next. Gordon Chang may not even outlive his own forecast, before China collapses. What a joker. Not only that, China is said to have problems with water, with population, with manufacturing due to chip shortage, with COVID protest, with coups, with anything 'propagandable' under the sun. Pardon me for using such a 'word'.
It's quite ok to use such word.u have our support.

After years of being under the yoke of the USA, looks like the Middle East is starting to break free, and hopefully, Mohammed bin Salman will be the one to lead the Middle East out of their quagmire. If he survives the CIA.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that the Middle Eastern countries are looking much further into their future rather than depending on oil forever, even Saudi Arabia is looking towards renewable energy, tourism and infrastructure development with their participation in the BRI. Joining BRICS to take advantage of the wider trade network is another important step that they have taken to shrug off their total dependence on oil. And that is no small indication why the US$ hegemony, with it's total dependence on oil, is slowly being marginalised and losing it's evil hold.
Now the USA is trying to hold the world to ransom on chip dependence by planning to corner the chip manufacturing hegemony with the formation of the Chip Alliance. It is bound to fail, as unlike oil, anything man-made can be replicated, unlike oil.
MBS met Biden in Jeddah, not in Riyadh. Biden was not allowed to step into the Capital City.
ReplyDeleteBiden was like being sidelined, another way of saying, not welcomed.
Uninvited means not welcomed. Clear and simple.
ReplyDeleteWhy would any sane country welcome the Devil? Only the Devil's own devilish followers will welcome the Devil. The Devil's only purpose is to create trouble, chaos, unrest and bloodshed. Sure as the sun rising from the East.
ReplyDeleteWhy?
ReplyDeleteWhy does Satan have followers? Why?
ReplyDeleteI remember the days when I was working in Saudi Arabia for the Bin Ladin family. The oil revenue was flowing all the way to the United States of America and the west. Now MBS is doing the right thing and most of the oil revenue is retained in the country for the welfare of the people of Saudi Arabia. Well done MBS, you have done your country proud and the most important thing is that the evil empire cannot push you around like in the old days.
