Nato is reportedly setting up a liason office in Japan to advise the Japanese. This is another step trying to use another proxy to expand Nato in this region to confront China next. Following this will probably be the formation of an Asian version of Nato, with South Korea, Philippines, Australia, Taiwan, the Pacific Islands and of course the USA in the alliance. Lizard Truss spilled the beans calling for the expansion of Nato worldwide, before her short stint as PM of Little Britain, and while she was the British Foreign Secretary.
While US influence is declining in Latin America, Central America, Africa, Middle East, and therefore those regions are facing less conflicts in future, Asia will be bearing the brunt of conflicts instead when the devil sets up home in the region.
This has been the agenda of the USA after failure in the Middle East, with withdrawal from Afghanistan and the brokered Iran/Saudi Arabia peace deal, that will end the standoff between these two power houses in the Middle East, and also put to rest the conflict in Yemen. Israel will be less significant for the USA, as Saudi Arabia no longer needs Israel to antagonise and confront Iran, and the USA no longer can capitalise on Israel's divisive position in the Middle East.
However, declining influence is still wrought with the USA's embedded evil intention to leave without doing their 'earth scorching' agenda by igniting civil unrest in Haiti, Sudan and now stirring up confrontation with Iran over the earlier confiscation of oil from an Iranian tanker. Iran retaliated by seizing a Panama flagged and another Marshall Island flagged cargo tankers in response. Tensions are rising. Could a false flag be on the horizon?

China is way too passive and overly diplomatic.
ReplyDeleteThis has encouraged
the US-EU criminal enterprise to keep stirring more shit. Being passive will be deemed as a sign of weakness (boh lumpar) by the yanks, europeans and Japs.
Very soon those countries that are pro China will lean towards the same view, China is too passive.
Question comes to mind, where is the self respect when the Japs persist in insulting victimised countries with the Yasukuni shrine ?
Imagine the Germans doing the same by honouring Hitler, Himmler, Goering plus other infamous nazi butchers with a permanent shrine, and boldly expecting Israel, France, etc, to remain passive ?
I am inclined to believe handsome Kim would gladly reduce the Yasukuni shrine and Jap Imperial palace to rubble, if given a free hand to extract redemption.
Not doing so has only encouraged the Japs to persist in showing zero remorse for all their atrocities.

I agree. China cannot continue to be the punching bag and not react. Maybe China is still not strong enough to kick asses. But surely it would be one day, probably soon. For the moment, to adopt the Wolf Warrior policy is already a mark improvement from the past.
ReplyDeleteWe can expect to see China taking firmer and stronger stand going forward. Every move taken by China is carefully calibrated based on reality on the ground.
The other thing is that China would fight its own war in a front that it can win. The biggest war China is fighting is dedollarisation. The chip war is also going to bankrupt the American chip industry. China is also fighting the technology and economic war quietly without much fanfare.

Wah, dangerous, double Meanings!
What China is doing in Africa, Latin America and Middle East is far from being deemed inactive. China is procuring access to ports for trade development, resources for industries, forging relationships and of course expanding the BRI. China's relations with Africa goes back a long way, all now richly rewarded by the Africans, which the Whites are attempting to break up, and have failed to do so thus far. Which approach will withstand the scrutiny of those being colonised over time? I believe we are beginning to find out the answer.
ReplyDeleteWhat the USA and collective West had been using, and are still using, is a totally different approach, using 'hard power' tactics, whose outcome is becoming apparently clear in Africa. Initial success using 'hard power' will garner temporary results, but as countries being victimied look back, they are not as forgiving as we think. The Jews may have forgiven the Germans, or so we think, but Asians still have not forgotten the Japanese militaristic aggression and sufferings during WW2.
China is using the 'soft power' approach, avoiding any head on collisions, but not out of great fear of the USA or the West. And now, with the support of Russia, China should just have retaliated by fighting fire with fire. That is not how 'soft power' should develop after so long, and getting destroyed on the spur of the moment.
Even without resorting to use of force as a deterrent and counter by China, the USA and the West are already hyping up the role of China as a bully, a military threat, growing assertiveness and so on. Strangely, Communism per se is not being hype up as a downtrodden ideology anymore, having clearly stand up well economically against the over-rated democratic system. Russia is moving in the same direction as China, economically.
China is not giving more ammunition to be capitalised on by the USA and the West to propagate to the world the hype up fabricated role of China's military expansion and its intention. As a big nation, does not China have the right to build up its military to protect its interest?
What else more drastic would they think of if China were to adopt a more 'hard power' approach to problems resorting to head on collisions. And what would countries think about that when most are already sick and tired of the USA using its military to coerce smaller countries to pay obeisance and follow its dictates? That same approach, if adopted, would destroy the perception of China's 'soft power' approach to problems.
China will fight its own wars when it is time to do so at its own discretion, and not fall for provocations.
