Blinken's trip achieved nothing

  Blinky's trip to China achieved nothing. China is not going to cut off trade with Russia, nor is China cutting industrial overcapacity. China even warned Blinken that it is either 'co-operation or confrontation' on the cards. In other words, China is ready to work its way around the financial sanctions that Yellen had threatened earlier.

Any financial sanctions against Chinese Banks will backfire. China's trade with partners will, in the face of such financial sanctions, be all denominated in Yuan, putting additional pressure on the US$ and assisting de-dollarization. It is going to make the Yuan more prominent in China's trade with the Global South and other countries in BRICS. Russia has shown China that sanctions on its banks and cutting off its relations with the Western banking system have not stopped Russia from growing.

Could this escalate into what the West is doing with Russian assets in Europe and USA? There are indications that this might happen as the USA is desperate and at a loss as to how to deal with China. China sold off another US$22.7 billion of its treasury holdings in February 2024, bringing down its holdings to US$775 billion.

Countries and Investors are watching closely the US$300 billion belonging to Russia, that the West has frozen and threaten to confiscate, and any attempt to officially seize it is going to have serious consequences for the USA. Even more consequential is when the USA and the West starts to do the same to China's assets in the West, which will likely trigger the demise of the US$. No country outside US allies will ever again want to invest in US treasuries and assets in the USA and the West. And some of those countries will instead park their reserves in Chinese banks and institutions.

Prepare for an elephant fight that the rest of the world will suffer in one way or another.

Democrazy is toxic - Lawless America abusing the rule of law

 Has TikTok committed any offence or crime in the USA or anywhere in the wAorld? The answer is a big NO. But the American Senate has found TikTok guilty on 23 Apr and ruled that TikTok must divest its business or be banned in America. What happened to the innocent till proven rule basic principle of rule of law? TikTok is guilty without committing any crime, without violating any laws, but presumed that it would commit crimes in the future, that it would pass data to China through an unproven software supposedly embedded in its app. Does anyone find this horrifying? Not in the terrorist state of the USA run by a bunch of gangsters in Washington. They write the law, they interpret the law and they judge as they deemed fit. The is lawless America hiding under the guise of rule of law.

Guilty without the need to proof. Guilty as defined by the Washington gangsters. The same distorted principle was applied to Huawei. Guilty by association, with no need to prove and no need to commit any offence. Huawei was banned from installing its equipment and selling its mobile phones in the USA on the assumption of guilt that it is a threat to American national interest. Now they are going after port cranes, EVs, what's next, toys in Walmart?

This blatant distortion of truth is accepted by the hillbillies in the whole of the USA. No one is protesting. No hillbilly is standing up to say this is against the American Constitution on freedom of speech and freedom of choice. And the 170m American users of TikTok too accepted this new law lamely. Why? Are Americans stupid or sick?  An innocent app, just a tool, not even more dangerous than a knife or a gun, is banned from being used in the USA, because a bunch of idiotic bigots in the Senate said so.

This guilty without the need to proof, guilty of an assumed crime in the future, is now the text book of American politicians, spread around the world. And not only stupid Americans are accepting this new 'rule of law' or 'rule of lawless' without questioning the logic behind it. The rest of the world, especially those western educated fools are accepting this warp logic as 'rule of law'.

TikTok and Huawei had already been found guilty of a future crime. And many other foreign companies would also be found guilty if the gangsters in Washington said so. In the international arena, China, a peaceful country engaging in all peaceful endeavours, in trade and economic development, in infrastructure development, is also found guilty under the same 'illogic' of the American terrorists. And equally, many fools accepted this American lie and concluded that China is a threat to world peace, that China may not be engaged in any war, unlike the warmongering Americans that are not seen as a threat but a peace loving country, that China would be aggressive and invade and conquer the world in the future. The evil lying Americans said so. Therefore China cannot be trusted. Only the American terrorists can be trusted to promote peace in the world. Every war the Americans started and fought is for peace, democracy and to protect human rights. Ask the Palestinians and Arabs in the Middle East.

China is guilty of wanting to rule the world like the Americans in the future. How many silly buggers are still stuck in this mischievous American lie and sleeping and breathing with it? And many of these sillies are supposedly highly educated, learned, but their heads are filled with American shit. The Americans are the terrorists in the world and ruling the world by military might, coercing and bullying every country, even their allies and crony states. Period.

Western imperialism and colonisation in the Middle East and Africa has not really ceased

 Western imperialism and colonisation in the Middle East and Africa has not really ceased at all. The liberal Neo-Cons now resort to neo-colonialism in many hybrid ways. They still try to subject Middle East and Africa to their control and hegemony through fraud and deception. 

One of their most insidious method is to impoverish the victimized countries through spurious help of giving loans with very high interests. Another evil design is to control the trade and commerce of the Middle East and African countries through the IMF and the World Bank, both tightly controlled by US and the Anglo-Saxons countries as well as by the European countries. 

Further they control the cyber of the internet and the mass media like the Newspapers and radio and television broadcasting stations in which the people are subjected to intense massive propaganda of disinformation and misinformation and thus the people are being brainwashed without their realizing it. Also in order to receive the toxic Western aid they must allow US, UK and France to operate military bases in their countries.

Biden is a danger to the world, to the US and to himself

 A country ruled by one having dementia with squinting eyes, and one who blinks is nothing but a joke. Of course, we know there is a higher force behind telling them what to do.

Joe Biden made another hilarious and laughable gaffe when he read aloud the word 'pause' from a teleprompter, when that word 'pause' was meant to silently signaled to him to pause his speech at that point. He probably doesn't understand or know what he is reading! He even needs cards on previous occasions to tell him when to sit and when to leave the rostrum. That is how bad his mental capacity is. No, it is nothing about over-capacity. It is under-capacity! His handlers have to lead him around like a baby. And that baby is supposed to have his fingers on the nuclear 'button'.

Clearly Joe Biden is indeed growing younger as they claimed. His mentality is going from senility to that of a kid.

The USA is clearly the laughingstock of the world. Remember Trump's boast at the UN years ago? Instead of eliciting applause he was laughed at. But he felt no shame. Of course, when they themselves owned up by claiming they lie, cheat and steal, what do we expect?

China is not stupid but diplomatic

 If the Chinese leaders are stupid, China would have been like the EU, Japan, South Korea and The Philippines, securely under the thumb of the USA. The Chinese would have ended up like the Native American Indians, living in reservations. Didn't the Chinese chase the Anglo-Saxon Imperialist out of China? They did, did they not?

China is just being diplomatic and not resorting to gangsterism and using Mafia tactics of shooting the messenger before he enters the house. China follows International Law and what it does is nothing more than diplomatic behavior. China did not invite Olaf Scholz or Blinky to visit, nor bribe them to, but just following the norm.

China is fighting back against the USA in areas it deems necessary. As a 'peer competitor' there are so many areas that China has to face the USA. Who else fought back against the USA under suppression? Did the Japs fought back when US troops were stationed in Japan or Toshiba was taken to the cleaners? Did the French fought back when the USA was caught spying on Macron and Alstom was skinned alive? Did the Germans fought back when the USA was caught red handed spying on Angela Merkel or was forced by the USA to stop the Nord Stream pipeline project? They are the real fools. Now the Germans are paying the ultimate price for allowing the USA to dictate policies to their disadvantage and benefiting from it. Now Japan is in deep shit too and trying to fight back wanting the USA to cut interest rates. The USA will never do that as its is against their interest to do so. It is too late for Japan to regret.

Aside from military action to confront the USA head on, China is not lying down in other areas. It is still fighting against the Chips Alliance. TikTok is still fighting against the Biden Administration out to destroy it. China is still not pulling back on industrial overcapacity. On the contrary, China is moving to move further ahead in that position of strength. China will still trade with Russia, whatever the USA demanded.

China knows decoupling is accelerating and unavoidable and is taking measures to increase domestic consumption in the face of USA and EU's clampdown on EVs and other clean energy production sector like solar panels. China is trotting out domestic demand stimulation with the Government using monetary incentives to lure locals to buy EVs and discard their ICE vehicles. This is playing hardball with USA and other ICE vehicle manufacturers trying to ban Chinese EVs. Domestic demand stimulation is China's strategy going forward and is centered and calibrated to support China's clean energy manufacturing sector in the face of Western ban on them.

A country that rose from third world to what it is today, lifting more than 800 million out of poverty cannot have been ruled by fools. It is the West that is stupid and continues to make stupid mistakes.

As old civilizations rise, the upstarts are getting nervous, paranoid and fearful.

 As old civilizations rise, the upstarts are getting nervous, paranoid and fearful.

The upstarts are desperate and coming together to help to keep the Hegemon remain relevant. It is all hands to the pump. And who are those doing that? None other than the Anglo-Saxon Imperialist clique and some fake Whites like Japan.

Japan was an Imperialist state without a doubt. Its ambition during WW2 to control Asia was never in doubt. It joined in the eight nations agenda to break China up into spheres of influence. Had it succeeded, Chinese in China will today be living in 'reservations' in the Tibetan desert. The Chinese race would be almost facing extinction due to genocides on the sly, like the Palestinians in Gaza.

Chinese should be thankful to Mao for chasing those barbarians out of China. The Communists should be given all the credit for what China has become today. Forget about political ideology, democracy versus socialism. Which system can deliver is more important. Which system can lift people out of poverty is more important. And Africa understands it better than most. The traitors in Taiwan are the real enemies of the Chinese people. Never forget that!

The USA is now running its money printing presses at warp speed, printing money furiously for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan and making hay while the sun still shines. US$95 billion has be earmarked and approved, mainly for Ukraine and Israel.

Ukraine is already a lost cause and the USA is still flogging a dead horse, hoping it will stand up and run a race it already lost. The USA and the West is terrified of losing to Russia in Ukraine, as it means the end of the Anglo-Saxon hegemony.

More money is to help Israel complete its genocide campaign in Gaza. Even if that is over, will those Israeli settlements in Gaza find peace knowing that Hezbollah and the remnants of Hamas are a perennial threat. More money printing, more aid must be found to carry out a long campaign in Gaza.

Blinken the devious joker aka the liar

 Blinken is now in China, claiming that he was invited by China. The reception he was getting said otherwise. Anyone invited by China as a state guest would received the best of treatment deserving of his position and status. Normally a red carpet would be basic. And the invited guest would be received by his counterpart or someone equal in seniority. And the plane would normally land in Beijing, not in Shanghai or any other city away from the seat of govt in Beijing.

Blinken did not get a red carpet treatment and had to walk down the plane on bare metals and on the barren tarmac of the Shanghai airport. He was received by an administrative staff from the city of Shanghai. That said it all.

And this devious liar got the cheek to allege that China was committing genocide in Xinjiang. China should send him packing immediately and should not waste time talking to such a rude and lying visitor. The truth in the face of the whole world is that the Americans are committing genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza, working hand in hand with the Israelis. How dare he talked about a fictitious American lie in Xinjiang, a fabricated American lie about genocide?

What about the genocide of Iraqis during the fake WMD invasion of Iraq with millions killed, including several hundred of thousands of Iraqi children that evil Magdalene claimed was worth it and Hillary Clinton laughed about it? What about the massacres of innocent Afghans minding their own business in the hills of Afghanistan?  What about Kosovo? Just because they controlled the western media and not allowing them to be reported so the Americans can pretend there were no genocides in these massacres of the innocents? And Blinken and other Americans strutting around pointing fingers at others like they were angels.

When would China learn to boot out such devious and unfriendly liars inviting himself to China? China must not entertain should hooligans let alone meeting him. He came with ill intent.

The world has given up on the Palestinians

 The American and Israeli genocide of the Palestinians continue with full force with no one to stop them. Poor Palestinians are like no body's child. Many were massacred in the hospital raids by the Israelis. Now the Israelis are using their aircraft to bomb indiscriminately in Rafah.

Good luck to the Palestinians. They are in a position when they cry heaven and earth but no one is there to help them.

And the pro American and Israeli believers would probably say the genocide is a good thing, because it is done by the peace loving Americans and the Israelis.

American chip makers downsizing and retrenching...

 Hard times befalling on American chip manufacturers. There is no way out but to downsize and plan for more retrenchment. American workers in these factories are in dire straits, with unemployment staring in their faces. They only have Biden and his clowns like Raimondo, Blinken and old lady Yellen to thank for. 

How can these silly buggers come up with the plan to sanction China, to cut off the biggest chip market and consumer, ie China. China alone easily consumed at least 20% of the sales of American's chip manufacturers. Without China, the alternative is obvious. Sales down, all the over capacity, machinery and manpower must be downsized. No one else can replace the buying power of China. There is no more room for growth and expansion. Profits would turn negative. For their own survival, these manufacturers have to do the necessary.

And China is not taking these sanctions lightly. China is gearing up its own manufacturing capabilities and abilities to produce the chips it needed. And now that China is more or less self sufficient in most of the chips, Xi has announced that China would now only use its domestically manufactured chips for products Made and Used in China. The biggest casualties are Nvidia, AMD, Qualcom, Intel and practically every chip manufacturers in the US, plus those in Japan and South Korea, and also those in Europe. TSMC would not be spared. It can continue to produce chips in the Arizona, US, but with no buyers.

Biden and his clowns have done an incredible job to kill the American and pro American chip manufacturers with their stupidity. There is no turning back once China is self sufficient in chip manufacturing. The American and pro American chip manufacturers would be lucky to stay in business without making losses. There is just no more scope for growth without the Chinese market. Period.

PS. When China starts to sell chips to the world at affordable prices, these American manufacturers would have to fold up. Downsizing and retrenchment would not save them. They simply cannot compete.

TikTok - American lie going foul

 Just how fragmented and sick is the USA Government in its thinking, that it is making a fool of itself openly for the rest of the world to see. I am talking about the coming ban on TikTok.

Claiming that TikTok is a bad influence on younger users and a spying tool for the Chinese Government is just a lame excuse. The real honest unsaid reason is that it is cannibalizing the territory of USA apps like Meta and Twitter. It is insulting the intelligence of readers to say that the Chinese Government is using TikTok to spy on USA users of TikTok. Why should the Chinese Government be interested in spying on ordinary USA citizens, when China is not even interested in who gets into the White House, as both parties pose no benefit whatsoever to China as they are using the same playbook against China.

Making the pitch that India already banned TikTok in 2020 is a moot point. Modi had to ban TikTok for the reason that he does not want ordinary Indians to get too deep into understanding of his corrupted regime. That India is the biggest democracy in the world is just an empty slogan. Modi is a dictator. One that the USA recognized as legitimate. What a joke!

It has also been reported that the Biden Administration itself is using the TikTok platform in its Presidential election campaign today. That is smearing shit on their own faces trying to ban TikTok. If something is really that bad as what the Biden Administration is claiming, why are they themselves using it? It boggles the mind! In other words, it is blatantly telling us that they do not practice what they preach. The same as telling us that they lie, cheat and steal. We probably cannot find any other more shameless human species in this world today like the USA.

The other thing that really takes the cake is forcing TikTok to be sold to a USA entity or face the ban. In other words, using the same fake spying narrative that TikTok is spying for the CCP will, if it falls into USA's hand, becomes a spying tool for the US Government instead, right? It is therefore a moot point and just a lame excuse to argue that it has a bad influence on younger users.

Byte Dance must never ever sell off TikTok to any USA entity. Rather be banned than selling it. There is a much bigger and wider world besides the USA and the West, where it can thrive. What is losing a couple of hundred million users compared to the billions of users in the Global South?

Evil man Blinken thinks he is calling the shot. What a joker!

 What does Blinky hope to achieve in China again? Trying to coerce China to cut off trade with Russia is an exercise in futility. And he is threatening China with sanctions, financial sanctions undoubtedly. Russia and China's relations are non-negotiable. If China relents, tomorrow the USA will demand that China cut off oil imports from Iran, which is helping Iran's military. And the demands will go on and on. China must put its foot down and tell Blinky that enough is enough and stop visiting uninvited.

The USA knows that BRICS is well on its way to setting up a new financial system to rival SWIFT and wants to pressure China over that in mind. If BRICS gets its settlement system working, that spells the end of USA's US$ hegemony and its sanctioning monopoly.

BRICS had been talking about a new currency backed by gold and commodities for a long time. China is piling up gold like no tomorrow. BRICS countries are moving to set up a 'Grains Exchange' among themselves to move away from the pricing control of the West on grains. This is also a move in the direction of de-dollarization, where the currency involved in trade within their 'Grain Exchange' will certainly not be USS for sure. It will be a big move with about half the world's grain coming from several BRICS countries like Russia and Brazil.

Moreover, if the USA keeps pressuring China and accusing China of helping Russia militarily, that is going to backfire, if the Chinese gets sick and tired of the accusation and really start to supply weapons to Russia openly. After all, if China is being accused of doing that when it is not, what is the point of not doing it, if the accusations keep on coming. Might as well do it and shut the USA up for good. After all, China knows that sanctions are coming no matter what, so what is the point of relenting.

Something big is coming out of BRICS and the USA is paranoid and desperate.

The Europeans, especially the Anglo-saxons UK & US had since the 18th Century planned the colonization of the Middle East and the whole continent of Africa. PART TWO

PART   ONE talks about the whites plan especially the Anglo-Saxons UK  plan to colonize the whole of Arab Middle East. Part Two will show their same evil intent to get rid of Africans and eventually to colonize the whole continent of Africa with white people from Europe and America and the Jews. The white invaders and plunderers describe the Africans as subhuman and of inferior race and are not fit to own the resource rich continent of Africa which they say is destined by white men's God to be possessed and inhabited by white men and the Jews.

One of England's most evil and vicious plunderer and land robber was Cecil Rhodes, possibly a British Jew and the most notorious imperialist. His diabolical plan and motive was to to bring the whole of Africa and the Middle East under white men's rule with England holding supreme power. 

In 1890s he had come into possession of  the world's richest gold and diamond empire in South Africa through fraud, deception and subterfuge in a free wheeling dealing  business. He was a strong believer in Darwinism and in the 19th century European imperialism was at the height of its savage global expansion which caused him to declare arrogantly that the white people especially the Anglo-Saxons races being superior to other races were destined to civilise and rule the whole world. Thus henceforth Anglo-Saxons UK and US competed fiercely with their European counterparts to grab whatever lands not yet occupied by whitemen. When the German emperor Kaiser Wilhelm II complained that Germany had entered the race for empire too late and that there was nothing worthwhile left for her anywhere, Cecil Rhodes told him that "There is Asia Minor and Middle East." Though Asia Minor is owned by Turkey and the Miiddle East was under Turkey's rule did not trouble him at all. 

Cecil Rhodes Vision of empire building was very extreme and he had the strong support of every  British government who found in him an extremely useful instrument for the preservation and extension of British empire in Africa especially in South Africa.

Thus with the support of Prime Minister Gladstone he annexed Bechuanaland  ( later known as Orange Free State ) in 1884-1885. Then he proceeded with plans to invade and occupy Zambesia which constitutes today's Zimbabwe and Zambia ( formerly named Rhodesia by UK in honour of Rhodes ) He had to fight a war against the Dutch known as the Boers and Germany to hold full solid control of South Africa. At the same time in 1884 Germany established a colony in South-West Africa known as Namibia. All this while other European countries were busily building their empire and colonies throughout Africa. France took much of North West Africa such as Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Niger, Burkina Paso, Chad, Cote d'Voire, England occupied Nigeria, Gold Coast (Ghana), Gambia, Kenya, Tanzania, Sudan, Sierra Leone, Somalia etc, Portugal took Angola and Mozambique, Belgium took Congo and Italy took Libya and Ethiopia while US took Liberia. These are only some examples of Western colonisation of Africa and they are not exhaustive. But to avoid fighting among themselves the European powers had come to a common understanding of accomodating with each other on the breaking up of Africa among themselves. They had succeeded in cutting the African melon just as they did in cutting the China melon and shared their spheres of influence among themselves. Thus Africa was successfully cut into 52 states all controlled by the European countries. Each of the European imperial power then proceeded to plunder and rob Africa of its rich mineral resources like, gold, diamonds, cobalt, copper, nickel, uranium , tin and oil as well as agricultural resources like cocoa, coffee, palm oil and many more others.

After they were fully in control of all Africa the European powers started to bring in hundreds of thousands of white immigrants and Jews from all over Europe to populate the continent. Then they began a systemic series of plans to get rid of the native populations via massacres and genocide and using of toxic biological and chemical agents to decimate the native population.

White men especially the Anglo-Saxons UK and US think they can totally destroy the native populations of Africa and the Middle East just as easily as they did to the native populations of North America and to a certain extent in Central and South America as well as Australia annd New Zealand. 

White men's plan of destroying the native populations in both Africa and Middle East was too macabre.  It was a horrible crime against humanity. Fortunately fate intervened for after the Second World War their diabolical plans and objective were foiled by Russia and China which helped the Africans to gain their independence through a scheme of rebellion and decolonisation.  Also it was partly due to the white men's extreme greed for power and wealth which resulted in horrendous wars among themselves in the Napoleonic Wars ( 1812 ) , the First World War 1914 -1918, and the Second World War 1938-1945. However, as far as their insidious plans are concerned they will never give up. They will persist in their attempt to bring not only Africa and the Middle East under white men's total control and hegemony but the whole world as well.

Hence US and NATO have been creating turmoils and wars all over the world. The zionist Jewish Israel brutal genocide of Palestine under US instigation is only the first leg of their motive to control the whole of the Middle East and there after the whole of Africa. However, both the Middle East and Africa can now feel safer with the protection of the rising powers of Russia, China, Iran and DPRK. The satanic Jews, the Anglo-Saxons US and UK as well as all the vile savage European countries can now say good bye to their wild savage ambition of colonizing Africa and the Middle East where most of them will soon become members of the economic association of the BRICs organisation under the protective gear and guidance of Russia, China and Iran.

The BRICs economic organisation will expand and get more and more new members every year . BRICs will treat each and every member country big or small as equal and will support and give mutual help to fellow members. BRICs  will supercede the white elites G-7 in scale, economy, trade and finance and in the military and politics. BRICs will be a bulwark and guarantee against any future European and Anglo-Saxons US/UK  and Zionist Jewish aggression on any of its members. The Belt and Road initiative of China will ensure all BRIC member countries can share a common goal of development and progress in their infrastructures, trade and finance, economy, political and military strength to ensure their common security against Western and Zionist Jewish aggression.

US India opportunistic relationship

 

 India wants the cake and eat it. That is very true. The Indians are playing the USA against China and hope that they destroy each other.

The USA on the other hand is playing India against China and hope they too destroy each other.

Never forget that Native American saying - When you see two fish fighting in a pool of water, look around and you will see a white man standing nearby. Native wisdom! Looks like continental Indians are trying to be the 'white man' as well, waiting for a USA/China conflict to reap the rewards.

The USA is trying very hard to pry the Russia/China alliance apart, using accusations of military support, over buying of energy and trade. What are alliances for if not for all these things? Or should I ask what are alliances that the USA made with their allies for? Nothing but countering the 'China threat' or using the alternative of a 'Coercive China' and all that hocus pocus.

Suffice to say, what are the Five Eyes Alliance for? What is the motive of forming the QUAD? What narratives are they spouting regarding the formation of AUKUS? And what is the purpose of trying to expand NATO into Asia? Can't China, Russia, Iran and North Korea have the right to form their own alliances on trade and co-operation?

Who are the real 'Axis of Evil' I may ask?

THE OPPRESSION OF A CIVILIZATION

I wrote this piece many years back. It is good to revisit this post and look at the fate of the Chinese people then under the oppression of the white men and how they fought back to destroy this white men's myth that the Chinese were stupid and dull people, only fit to be cooks and laundry men. This lie was enforced for centuries by the white men through their media and state policies to keep the Chinaman down and out. 

Just keep suppressing them, deprive them of the opportunity to be educated and rise in the world of science and technology. Just keep them dumb and tell the world that the Chinese are dumb. The Chinese Civilisation and China were suppressed and oppressed for nearly a century to the point of becoming irrelevant, poor, illiterate, ignorant, loss of confidence and pride, in a world controlled and ruled by the white men.

Look at what China is today, what China has achieved in a short 50 years after breaking free from the clutches of the white men. The Chinese today have stood up through sheer hard work and tenacity to be their true self, a people that is as good as anyone in the world, compete and be better than the white men in every field of science and technology. No more the oppressed Civilisation by the white men. The Chinese people will no longer be the joke of the white men, to be despised by the white men as a people with no talent.

____________________________________________________________________________

The world was turned into an ocean of colonies of subject people during the few centuries of ‘friendly’ European conquest. The Africans were turned into slaves, the natives of both Americas massacred. The ancient civilization of China was crippled and dismantled into pieces. After the Western powers brought down the decadent Qing Dynasty with the might of modern firearms, the Chinese civilization was turned into a pariah race of nothingness by the invaders in their country. The foreigners did not bring anything good but oppression, bullying and raiding China ’s wealth and dignity by all kinds of deceptive means, and by the barrel of the gun. The Japanese joined in and even thought of conquering and ruling the whole of China as their colony.  

There was a moment of salvation when Japan attacked Pearl Harbour and declared war on the Western power. China and its peasant soldiers were needed to open another front to sap the fighting power and resources of the Japanese. A large part of the Japanese Imperial Army was held down in China by the peasant soldiers. History would not be the same if the Japanese could run through China without resistance and conquer the whole of Asia. 

After the war there was a brief moment of equality for China as a key member of the Allied Forces that fought against the Japanese. Chiang Kai Shek was seated with the Allied leaders like Churchill, Stalin and Roosevelt in Potsdam and Cairo to divide the world among the victorious Allied Powers. China was lucky to have its lost territories back. Chiang was more like a flower vase, inconsequential, and would not be deserving of any war loot. His presence among the leaders of the big powers was a consolation that gave China a little recognition as a big nation.  

This little moment of dignity did not last long when Mao Zedong defeated Chiang and China adopted communism as a state ideology. This turn of event led to a renewed and concerted Western effort to brand and condemn the Chinese civilization as peasants, rogues, dumb, uncivilized, aggressive and the pariahs of the human race, a good for nothing race that was lack of talent, unproductive and unimaginative, and unfit to join the advanced nations of the West. This was the hopeless China painted by the West. They kept repeating the misinformation daily in all western media, like they are doing to North Korea today that the whole world simply believed so. Chinese are useless, Chinese are lame, Chinese are bad.  

Cold Wars, containment policies, encirclement, depriving China of its rightful seat in the UN, blocking China from joining international organizations like the WTO and the Groupings of rich nations, were history now. In the last 40 odd years, China came storming back on its own despite all the sanctions and barriers and threats against its rise as a nation and the Chinese people as a civilization, old, ancient, but not useless and remote of talents. 

Throughout the two hundred years of Western oppression and suppression, the Chinese civilization was not allowed to surface, no opportunity to break out and be the equals of other nations. The Chinese civilization was down and out, the Chinese in despair. Many Chinese had doubts in themselves, and were ashamed to be Chinese. The Westerners reinforced this belief by sneering at them, contributing negative literature furiously to debase the Chinese, discriminated against them in practically every human endeavour and industry. In the USA there were racist laws forbidding the Chinese from higher skill jobs. The image and perception of useless and untalented Chinese became a self fulfilling prophecy. The Chinese civilization was a joke, a condemned race that was lacking in industry and innovation.  

On its own, slowly and steadily the Chinese rebuilt their nation and their civilization, with little foreign talents and assistance, China has overtaken Japan and is closing in on the US as the number Two world power, economically and militarily. They have proven that they could match the West in every field of industry. The oppression and suppression of a civilization have failed, and a revitalized China has assumed its rightful place as a proud nation among nations. The Chinese civilization is no longer to be spitted at, to be kicked around by the Western powers or by teeny weeny little Asian states. It is now a force to be reckoned with and to be respected on its own merits.  

The tag of being the Sick Man of Asia, a semi colony of the West, a broken country with nothing, no inventions, no modern industries, no talents except poverty and all the trappings of a poor and backward third world country vanished over a few decades. There is renewed pride as a people, a nation and a civilization in the new China . A phoenix has risen from the ashes. There is no turning back. The Chinese have found their way back and will leap frog over the West in science and technology and in all things, while the West are still trying to restrain their advances by hook and by crook.  

Today, the overseas Chinese are also starting to rediscover themselves, their pride and dignity as a respectable people. They too find some renewed confidence that they are not rubbish and useless as the West wanted to hole them in, to be bullied by even little third world people, to be told to go home in western countries. They too share the pride of an ancient civilization seeking a second chance in renaissance, to achieve in whatever they seek to do, to be a respectable people and civilization on par with the best in the world. They no longer lower their heads in shame as they go about their lives. They are standing tall, heads and shoulders to the Western civilization with the knowledge that they are just as good if not better. The Chinese civilization is reviving and will no longer be oppressed and suppressed again.  

We can all benefit from a short history lesson of mankind and their actions on earth and the generations to come!  

The Chinese today have enjoyed a life far more better than their predecessors since the invasion and rule of the Manchus, through 100 years of humiliation by the West, the Japanese invasion and occupation, civil wars and the early days of the new republic. The first 40 years of reconstruction and rebuilding of China were tough and very difficult with the continued oppression, isolation and containment by the West. Today, the Chinese people are happy, rich and confident and very proud of being Chinese and their country China. They are very grateful to the Chinese Communist Party, CCP, for making all these possible and lives getting better and better by the day. 

And China is emerging as the most prosperous and powerful country in the world and this is unstoppable no matter what the declining American Empire and the West are trying to do to block this from happening. The oppression of the Chinese people cannot go on forever and would never be allowed to happen again. There is a new China and a new Chinese people that would stand tall and proud among the people of the world.

Every Chinese in China, guided and led by the CCP, is talking and living his Chinese Dream, to be rich and successful and respected. The Americans used to have their dreams but the dreams of many Americans today are turning into a nightmare.

When would Singapore change its political leaning?

 Singapore believes in joining the winning side. And this policy has done well for Singapore in the last 50 years, betting that the Americans would continue to rule the world. Who cares about American hegemony, American terrorism, viciousness, warmongering and even genocide in Ukraine and Gaza. Who cares about the Americans forming gangs and inciting and provoking wars, committing war crimes everywhere. What matters is to be on the winning side, on the side of the Americans is the safest thing to do. At least the Americans would not conduct a regime change no matter what the political system has morphed into.

Now the political fortune of the Americans is changing and waning. The world has seen the lies and treachery of the Americans and most stark in supporting and participating in the genocide of the Palestinians, not counting the tension the Americans are racheting up in the South China Sea. 

In the midst of American foolery, treachery and adventurism, on the flip side is the rise of China, Russia, Iran and North Korea and BRICS, American power in the world is shrinking daily. The Americans have not only lost spheres of influence in Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, Africa and South East Asia, they have also lost in all the wars they have started. Economic war, tech war, trade war, media war, propaganda war, whatever you name it, whatever the Americans started, none has succeed. The hot war in Ukraine is seeing defeat in the face and would fall flat very soon. 

In Palestine, the whole Arab and Muslim world has turned against the Americans. The whole Global South too is against the Americans. The evilness and savagery of the Americans cannot be covered up anymore. Blatant aggression and disregard to world morality and opinions, violation of human rights, war crimes, outright massacring of the Palestinians, are too much to stomach even to the most staunch and blind believers of the evil American Empire. The mask of evilness of the Americans has been torn to pieces.

The balance of power is tipping against the Americans. The Americans are no longer the winning side. If Singapore is to stick to its time tested policy of being on the winning side, this is the time to contemplate when it should change side. Unless Singapore is so inflexible and would die die want to stick to the side of the Americans and go against its policy of being on the winning side. Only time will tell and there is not much time left to choose side.

Many Asean states have already chosen sides, Of course Mickey Mouse is still choosing the Americans. The Arab and Muslim world has abandoned the Americans and joining BRICS in full force. Africa is totally out of bound for the Americans. So is Latin America. The only few bastions left for the Americans are the white men countries in Europe and American colonies in Japan and South Korea, and a few little crony states.

When would Singapore switch sides, to be on the right side of history? America is no longer the winning side. Its demise is written all over the wall.

Moreover, the choice for Singapore to make is much easier this time. It would not be just blindly joining the winning side, but on high morale grounds and principles. On one side is China, fully committed in trade and economic development, building infrastructure to benefit the world, fighting climate change with new technology, AI etc etc. On the other side is terrorist USA, fully committed in destabilising states and regions, fermenting wars, overthrowing democratically elected govts,  behaving like gangsters in issuing threats and sanctions, committing war crimes, genocides and crimes against humanity, spreading lies and rumours etc.

American propaganda machine - desperation and impotence creeping in

 The USA has run out of ideas to demonize China and is scraping the bottom of the barrel to find fault with China. It is a sign of desperation and impotence creeping in.

The USA and the West have run out of sanctions against Russia, after sanctioning even trees, musical performances, football owners and even creating fake news about Putin's health. Putin was only expected to last six months into the war in Ukraine. Two years on, he is still as astute, clear minded, highly strategic in his actions and easily outperforming even all the juvenile spoilt brats in Washington and Brussels.

The USA and the West are blowing off the dust on their playbook and recycling what they do best, creating malicious narratives and lies accusing China of spying on UK and Germany and making up stories about genocides in Xinjiang, while denying such openly apparent genocides in Gaza. The world must never ever forget their malicious lies about Iraq that killed millions of innocent women and children.

The accusation of spying by China has gone out of credibility, having no ability to garner any proof of national security threat by Huawei. The only threat I can think of is the USA not being able to use Huawei's 5G to continue in their spying activities. But that did not stop them from making a fool of themselves.

Now the list of spying and security threat by China has gone from Huawei to quayside cranes, solar panels, weather balloons, washing machines, toilet seats, onions, pigeons, electrical transformers, and consumer electronics. If not already done, the next narrative of spying will fall on EVs and probably Chinese made commercial jets when they start to compete globally.

TikTok is already going to be banned in the USA and the West for sure. But another Chinese app said to rival Telegram is on the rise. That will be demonized as well. The USA's playbook is 'give a dog a bad name and then skin it'.

Well, the USA and EU are not the only market that China is looking at now. There is a bigger world in Africa, South America and the whole Global South, a market that the USA and EU can choose to ignore at their own peril. And this is where overcapacity in China will win the game with cheaper products competing against expensive toys from the USA and EU.

The USA and the West are digging holes that they will fall into themselves. Juveniles are juveniles.

Iran, an old civilisation on the rise

 Objectively speaking, among all the Islamic countries of the world, Iran is possibly the most technologically advanced Islamic country in the world today.

That Iran was not allowed to have the nuclear bomb is all due to its nuclear treaty with the USA, otherwise Iran could not have been less capable of having the bomb far ahead of Pakistan, another major Islamic country.

Iran or Persia, is a very old civilization from about 4000 BC, and is as old as Chinese and Indian civilization. It is also rich in cultural heritage and boasts a well-organized military establishment, even in the very early days. The wars that it fought over the centuries probably held back its progress in early stages, but that it is capable of rising to greatness has not escaped the attention of the USA and the West. Hence the USA and the West preoccupation in attempting to keep Iran on a leash, held down as an Islamic State that can pose problems for the USA and the West.

If my memory of history is not clouded, having studied a little bit of history in the mid-fifties about the Persians and their wars against the Greeks and Romans, it certainly is a testament to its military prowess and a legacy it still holds today. Such preoccupation with Iran by the West probably favoured the rise of China in later years.

China was the least expected to rise to such heights and according to Political Scientist John Mearsheimer, China is now a 'peer competitor' that the USA had never faced before. China is a competitor in every category - military, economic and geopolitical influence, in fact all round competitor and is taking on the USA in technology as well.

Warmongering Americans and West busy daily in fictional and unproductive rhetoric

 Now the German Shepherds are raising the issue of spying by China in Germany. Did China spy on Olaf Scholz bathing in the nude, like what the world suspected USA did to Angela Merkel? China is not really interested in Germany as it is a dying economy like Japan, all thanks to the USA making them impotent. But more doggies will follow the cue. They bark when the USA tells them to. The signal now by the USA is - bark, bark, bark, as loudly as possible.

China is also not interested in spying on the USA Government either, as who wins in the USA Presidential election in November is a moot point. Foreign policies of both parties are the same, so what does China hope to benefit supporting a winner? In the USA, the President can change, but they still pass the same playbook down the line, and still sing from the same songbook. And the rest of their doggies will all sing the same chorus, whoever wins.

Did we see any change in trade relations with China comparing the policies of Trump and Biden? In fact, Biden is doing even more harm than good in relations with China. Now the USA has pressured Mexico not to allow BYD to build a factory in Mexico. Mexico has lost the marbles to decide on its own. But it is a blessing in disguise for BYD for not even having started its building of the factory, and its plans to invest billions, and losing all that in the end.

If Trump wins in November, further ammunition will be added in the trade war. Trump already promised he will make the USA even greater. Make USA even greater is his slogan. Honestly, the only greater things we can see is their spiraling deficit and money printing. It is going into the stratosphere.

The world has had enough of white men's lies

 When the swaggering Anglo-Saxons white Americans cannot compete with others in anything in fair level playing field they will cook up all spurious reasons to take you down as they did on Toshiba, Alstom and many others. In the case of China they found head winds and could not do much damage to Chinese companies because their are not only cheap and good but also of better quality and of lasting value.

The USA has been doing all the evil deeds to many other countries. But now their evil deeds have come back to haunt the Americans. The blood thirsty US leaders can now only think of wars to redeem their topsy turvy society. They now wants to lure China out to open warfare through their idiotic proxies, the Philippines, Japan and South Korea. When the war created by US started they will misinform the world that China the aggressor starts the war.

The USA and its Western allies have no intention to have world peace. They thrive on wars at the expense of the sufferring of the non-white countries of the South.

The evil empire must be destroyed. All Asians, Africans and Latin Americans must wake up to the perrenial of the white men especially the Anglo-Americans and the British.

Blinken's Visit to China is self-invited and he comes with evil intent.

"White men can never be trusted" warn the native Americans.

Blinken is not welcome in China. President Xi Jin Ping and other Chinese leaders should just ignore him and only allow very junior functionaries to deal with him curtly.

" Just as many other US and Western self-invited visitors to China have come with no good-will but spouting poison against China, similarly Blinken comes with ill intent. If US and Western self-invited visitors have anything good for China they will never come - as the Chinese describe such self-invited visitors as "Lai-zher Bu Shan, Shan Zher Bu Lai", meaning 'The visitor comes with no good-will while the visitor with good-will, will never come.'  

Just a day before he lands in China, Blinken spouts some poison against China. He claimed in a fake propaganda US annual human rights report  harping on the falsehood that China is continuing to commit genocide and crimes against humanity against Uighurs and other Muslim minorities in its western Xinjiang Province.". He ignores the fact that hundreds of world leaders from countries of the South and the Muslim countries from Middle East, Indonesia and Malaysia inclusive had visited Xinjiang many time and witnessed for themselves the toxic lies and untruth of US and the West. They have concluded that the US and the Western countries just told the illicit lies to demonize China to suit their geopolitical agenda. Despite the truth told by the over 50 Muslim countries leaders that there was never any genocide at all in Xinjiang the evil US and its Western white supremacist persist on harping the untruth and they believe in their own lies after repeating the lies thousands of times. On the contrary to their false accusation and lies China's policy has always been treating national minorities better than the Han Chinese. When China limits the Hans to one child per married couple the minority ethnic races are allowed two or more children. Also the minority ethnic races receive preference in education inclusive of muslims. The population of the Uighurs have increased from around three or four million in 1950s to around twelve or thirteen million now. How can Uighurs population increase by the millions when there is genocide as falsely alleged by the Anglo-Saxons US and its Western allies.

Also just before he goes to China uninvited the US creates turmoil and tension in the South China Sea by encouraging the Philippines to head the frontline in confrontation aginst China. Blinken also lead the US to form a little NATO in Asia with Japan, India, South Korea and the Phillipines to contain China. Also US is arming Chinese Taiwan with offensive weapons to create turmoil and to start a war against China. 

Blinken and the Anglo-Saxons US and UK are just demonizing China to deflect the countries of the South to their own genocide of non-white people all over the world especially in Middle East now in Palestine.

Blinken wants to talk to China about human rights. He and all US and Western leaders are not qualified to talk about human rights with China or with all the countries of the South. Have they forgotten or just prefer to ignore the hundreds of millions of natives that white men have genocided for the last few hundred years and are still committing the same crimes now as in Palestine, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Yemen,  Sudan and in Africa and LAtin America. The Anglo-Saxons Americans and British are real monsters and must be destroyed and despatched from this earthly world.

The whole world especially countries of the South in Africa, Asia, Central America and the Caribbean Islands and Latin America must beware of the perennial threat from 'White men's danger' .

Iran ended the Israeli/American myth of invincibility - Israel is finished

The revenge attack by Iran on Israel is a game changer, an eye opener. It even shocked the Iranians to a great extent. They could not believe it was so easy to penetrate the Israeli so called iron clad defense systems. For decades, the Americans and the Israelis were spinning about how great their weapon systems were and how invincible the Israelis were to the point that the whole Arab and Muslim world were cowering in fear of offending the Israelis. None of the major Arab and Muslim states would dare to irritate or provoke the Israelis for fear of being invaded and flattened, like what is happening in Gaza. Gaza is a piece of cake to the Americans and Israelis, no big weapons, air power, big artillery to fight back, except relying on guerilla warfare to fight a war of attrition.

The resilience of the Hezbollahs and Hamas, and their successes were still not sufficient to give much confidence to the Arab and Muslim world. Hamas did a great job in controlling the Red Sea and causing huge disruption to the shipping supply chain, and inflicting great economic costs to the Americans and the West. But it is still an asymmetrical war against big powers with overwhelming superiority in firepower. They could still be easily wiped out if the Americans or Israelis have a free hand to do so.

There is nothing compared to what the Iranians just did in attacking 3 Israeli bases in Israel, all the way from Iran. The 3 waves of attacks, by drones and missiles were meticulously planned and executed, with ingenious strategy and precision, took the Israelis and the Americans by surprised. Several Iranian missiles hit their military targets in Israel, reputed to be heavily armed and defended, with many layers of anti aircraft and missile weapons, Iron Domes, Patriots etc etc. The Israelis gave the impression that Israel is as good as impenetrable, and no Arab and Muslim state is good enough to cause a dent in the Israeli defence.

The attacks were made known to the Americans several days in advanced to give them ample time to respond. The British, French and Jordanians were also roped in to strengthen the defensive ring. With a 4/5 hour flight, the Americans and the Israelis have all the time to track the drones and set up their combat air patrols to wait for the drones. The drones might be slower but still many times faster than hot air balloons. If the Americans needed 2/3 missiles to take down a hot air balloon, how many expensive missiles would be needed to take down these 200/300 cheap drones. Iran won in this wave even if all the drones were shot down, which wasn't the case. Many still got through. But the cost of taking down the drones was very high, many expensive missiles and aircraft were involved.

After exhausting the defense system and expending their expensive weapons, Iran followed with another two waves of missiles, the main attack force, against Israeli defense systems and air bases, all arriving at the same time as the drones. The success rate for the Iranians was very high, eg 5 out of 7 missiles hit one air base. The bullshitting by the Americans and Israelis about 99% killed rate was completely destroyed, becoming an open joke.

The Iranians have tested and proven the accuracy and effectiveness of their missiles against the most heavily defended Israeli military targets, touted as world best, invincible. This successful attack would have given the Iranians and other Arab and Muslim states a new found confidence to take on the Israelis. The Israelis have been proven to be less than able to defend themselves, unable to defend themselves. The Israelis are vulnerable. All the threats of attacking Iran, to wipe out Iran, and Iran afraid to hit back or provoke an attack by the Israelis are now passe. Iran would say, bring them on.

Iran can wipe out Israel. This is the outcome of this bold attack by the Iranians. It is a breakthrough! Other Arab and Muslim states, eg Egypt, Turkey, Syria etc etc now know that the Israeli defense system is full of holes. Iran alone can wipe out the whole of Israel with all the missiles it possessed, and with many to spare. 

What can be the result or fate of Israel if a concerted combined attack by all the Arab and Muslim states, properly executed! Even if the Americans were to get involved, all their aircraft carriers and naval ships using the same defense system would also be sunk. If Israel is no longer able to ward off a small wave of Iranian attacks, the consequences of a major attack in full force would be very very grave.

From now onwards, the Americans and the Israelis would have to think very hard about attacking Iran. The Iranians on the other hand would be more assured, and confident that they could deliver a deadly blow to the Israelis and the Americans. The Iranian missiles are now battle proven to be able to beat the American and Israeli defense systems.

There is now a new sense of well being among the Arab and Muslim world. There is no need to be in fear of the Israelis and the Americans like before. The fear is gone. Israel can and would be wiped out if the Arab and Muslim states were to launch a coordinated attack together. Israel is unable to defend itself.

Modi declares war on Muslims in India

 Modi's re-election is India's biggest problem going forward. The biggest issue he has to tackle is job creation, which is not going to happen just with slogan chanting and hate speeches igniting further racial polarisation. Already we have seen the issues regarding the treatment of Muslims in India. India has lots of problems with racial and religious matters, with Manipur and Punjab particularly evident. Modi is not solving them but is keeping and using such issues to divide and rule.

Modi's popularity rests on his pro-Hindu religious stand, which is the religion of the majority Indians in India, and they are eating out of his hand. However, that is not going to solve the unemployment problem facing younger Indians entering the workforce. The same way that Muslims in Malaysia have eaten out of the hands of Mahathir for decades, using racial politics to divide the country. That has stagnated progress in Malaysia for decades. Anyway, let us not talk too much about Malaysian politics as Muslims in Malaysia may not like it.

With India's anti-foreign business mindset under Modi, where foreign investments in India are sidelined in favour of domestic manufacturers that contributed huge sums of money in political support for him and his party, trying to lure foreign investors to set up shop in India is difficult. Chinese investors are avoiding India for example. That is not good for job creation. It is cutting the nose to spite the face, nothing more nothing less.

Biden and his 'ingenius' plan cooked up by the clowns in Washington

 Joe Biden plans to make the USA independent from China with decoupling high on his agenda. This is a wet dream in his dementia tainted mind.

According to Kevin Walmsley, on the site 'Inside China Business', he laid out the reality of the USA trying to set up industries to compete with China in the clean energy sector. That means making EVs, solar panels and wind turbines among others to compete with China. This is easier said than done, with empty slogans alone not worrying China. All the sanctions, hurdles and fake accusations against China today are meant to delay China's going further ahead and buy time for the USA industries to be set up and rise. Fanciful thoughts, I would say.

China controls all the supply chains that are needed to set up such a manufacturing Utopia. The USA is planning to set up such an Utopia to rival the Chinese. However, looking at the charts provided by various analyst, the answer is simply impossible. So much is dependent on China's processing domination that setting up the supply chains is beyond the ability of even the USA, the richest country in the world. The USA is simply promoting the 'feel good' feeling for themselves and their allies talking about such a venture. Can the USA really compete even if it succeeds? Warning China not to increase industrial overcapacity is an exercise in futility.

As in the case of India, critical iPhone components have still to be sourced from China for iPhone assembly in India. India does not have the total supply chain to cater to the needs of entities making such phones in India despite all the slogan chanting. The USA will also fall into the same predicament, having still to rely on China for all the basic components and raw materials to make those clean energy equipment.

Biden is of course not concern about those problems, as he is more concern about having his second term. He has to get Trump off his back for November, and that is why the Democrats are inventing all the hubris to make Trump less visible and more culpable. The lies and fake evidence generated to invade Iraq is being used in the same manner against Trump. The voters in the USA do not remember that of course.

Israel will be completely wipe out if Iran unload all it got into Israel

 The strike in retaliation by Iran against the Israeli attack on its embassy in Damascus was a warning that Iran can take down the 'Iron Dome' defense system. The Israelis have considered that scenario in its retaliation, after that Iranian strike, not to cross the line.

The Israeli retaliation also had the same motive - to test the Iranian defense capabilities and Israeli drones were successfully shot down, with little damage being reported. From another angle it was a token move by Israel to regain some of its lost prestige over the Iranian strike, where its airfields were successfully targeted by Iran. Netanyahu had to put on a show to satisfy critics that were pushing him to retaliate.

I think Israel has lost its bearings, is condemned and more isolated, even by countries that were previously sympathetic to its cause. According to Chas Freeman, the former US defense department diplomat in an interview with Nima R. Alkhorshid on the site 'Dialogue Works', Freeman holds the view that Iran's attack on Israel has destroyed all of Israel's calculations.

Elsewhere in interviews, he was also of the view that the USA also lost the last of its influence in the Middle East, after some Muslim allies categorically refused to allow the USA to attempt to use facilities in their territories to station logistics to counter any Iranian counterstrike should Israel cross the Iranian 'Red Line. This was possibly the reason why Israel and the USA did not go on to escalate the conflict with Iran. They knew that their planes need tankers for refueling flying all the way to Iran and back.

Now Israel is back to commit its genocides in Gaza. Even if Israel could take over the Gaza strip and build Israeli settlements there, will it enjoy any peace going forward, with Hezbollah at its doorstep and the remnants of Hamas advocating revenge?

Geopolitics in the Middle East is changing and changing drastically with more violence on the cards.

Reckless behaviour of American terrorists

 When they start to believe in their own propaganda, that is an indication that their thinking is gone bonkers. Their behavior becomes irrational and desperate.

Blinken is going to Beijing for what? This is at the same time that the USA is trying to ban TikTok, BYD, imposing further sanctions on China on chips, after Huawei came out with a new phone, conducting military drills every day with Japan and Philippines and provoking China and North Korea.

The USA is using the same tactic taken from their dusty playbook and trying to show the Anglo-Saxon doggies that it is still in a position of strength before any meeting with China. Blinken has not learnt his lesson in Anchorage, Alaska. The message by Yang Jiechi then was clear and unambiguous regarding China's stand on issues.

Blinken is going to talk to China about helping Russia. Any reason China should not help Russia, while the whole Anglo-Saxon Imperialist clique is pouring resources and military equipment into Ukraine? The USA can forget about trying to split the Russia/China alliance. Borth are the backbone and the foundation of BRICS undertaking the de-dollarization move that they are aiming for decades.

For Russia, there is no turning back. The US$300 billion asset in the West is the last link that Russia will have anything to do with the US$. China is making the Yuan more visible in global trade. Those Yuan swaps with countries in the Middle East and South America are strategic moves. So is the BRI and the AIIB.

As decoupling gets more intense, China will be just like Russia, and has to move in a different direction away from the USA and the West, especially the EU. CEOs of European countries are seeing the whole picture and are expanding their footprints in China to move away while they can.

This is an even worst time to talk about wanting to keep the peace when the USA is going all out to provoke China in every dimension. Why should China believe in what he is going to say, or even follow what he has to say? When your neighbor keeps making trouble for you, would you want to talk to him to make peace when you know it is all hypocrisy? Ridiculous!.

Xunpu traditional dresses on the streets of Quanzhou, China

Many of the ladies visiting Quanzhou would venture to don on the colourful dresses and flower head gears you are seeing below. This traditional dressing style actually came from a fishing village, Xunpu, about 3 or 4 kilometers away from West Street. In the village, even grannies put on the head gear, though of a smaller scale. 

In West Street, Quanzhou, many shops have set up to provide this service, renting out head gears, dresses and makeup services to transform he visitors into a fantasy like existence, like living in another world and time. The whole package could include a photographer accompanied. The beautiful ladies were mostly from other parts of China.

All the pics were taken in the compound of Kai Yuan Temple, West Street and lanes nearby.

 

The truth behind the propaganda war between Iran and Israel on the recent Iranian attack in Israel

 

Scott Ritter: Biden Sent An Ultimatum PROHIBITING Israel From Attacking Iran To SAVE The US Economy

Cancerous USA makes worst by the clowns in Washington

 The USA is now like a cancerous country, rotting from within, unaware of the cancer spreading internally from administration to administration. And this kind of cancer is even harder or impossible to cure, as it is the contagious type, spreading from one leader to another. Cancer is only known to spread inside a person itself, and not from one person to another.

The biggest hurdle preventing a person who has cancer getting cured early is denial, until the cancer gets to the terminal stage and then there is no cure. The USA is going fast and furious in that direction.

The policy failures of the USA policy makers are so apparent, with even ordinary people talking about it, but the leaders just seem to turn a deaf ear and continue to make the same mistake over and over. The USA and the West assumed that sanctions would work on countries of all shapes and sizes and they were wrong. Russia is a perfect example today. Decades of sanctions against North Korea, Cuba and Iran produced little effect as well. Now the biggest mistake is about to be realized and uncovered but already too late to remedy.

Chinese chipmakers have been pushed to the wall by Joe Biden with his Chip's Alliance and sanctions against China, by forcing global chipmakers to keep China away from high-end chips. This is backfiring on the USA and those that swallowed the poisonous potion administered by Biden, claiming that such a move would be better for their fortunes if they take down China in this sector. Now they are finding out the truth, but is it too late? Once China rises in the sector to compete, it is sounding the death knell for all other chipmakers.

China, vis a vis Huawei, SMIC and others are romping ahead in matured and high-end chips, both in research and innovation, at such speed, that it is even now exporting chips, 6 billion pieces to compete with the likes of Intel, Nvidia and others in the global market. This would not have happened if the USA had not tried to force China to be self-reliant and let the USA, Japanese and South Korean chipmakers to continue making those high-end chips and selling them to China and the rest of the world. Now China is evidently self-sufficient in many areas, to the extent that it is able to export chips to the rest of the world. Did the USA, Japanese and South Koreans chipmakers expect that? They must be shell-shocked.

Napolean, more than a century ago made this prediction - 'China is a sleeping giant, let him sleep, for if he awakes, he will shake the world'. The giant has been forced to wake up and is now shaking the world.

Evil intent of the warmongering American Empire - Zelensky was just a pawn and would be sacrificed

 The USA and the West tried to pull wool over people's eyes by generating the propaganda that the Ukraine War started with the Russian's liberation move in the Donbass Region in February 2022. This argument is to facilitate their propaganda that Russia started the war without provocations. Nothing is further from the truth.

The Ukrainians have been attacking the Donbass region, attempting genocide against Russian speaking citizens since 2014. Thousand have been killed. Attempts to stop the killings had been made, but ultimately sabotaged by the UK under orders of the USA. With NATO dangling a carrot in front of Zelensky promising Ukraine membership of NATO was the last straw that broke the camel's back. Putin had to invade to prevent Ukraine joining NATO. Was Russia's invasion 'unprovoked' You be the judge.

Now, let us talk about Palestine. Israel had been carrying out, for decades, its campaign of seizing lands from Palestinians to build settlements for Israeli citizens. The Palestinians could not fight back, until Hamas entered the picture. The harassments by the Israelis were intolerable to say the least for the Palestinians, and that was why Hamas launched its attack on Israel on October 7th, 2023. The USA and the West again trotted out the propaganda that Hamas attached Israel 'unprovoked'. Was that the truth. You be the judge.

Elsewhere, the USA, the West, the Philippines and Japan are provoking and stoking China to attack Taiwan. That is bound to elicit the 'unprovoked' template.

When would American gangsters run out of excuses to threaten China?

 It looks more like anybody and everybody are going around forming gangs. creating alliances, conducting military drills, directing criticisms, all for the purpose of threatening China.

China has been threatened for competing too successfully economically, been threatened for producing goods that are too cheap, been demonized for attempting to help poor countries develop infrastructures for economic progress with the BRI, been warned for conducting trade with neighbors, not being allowed to have influence over neighbouring countries, and you name it, they will invent a narrative to threaten China.

China should not care one hoot about what the USA or the West thinks and advance on its own initiative. Even if China follows their script, they will still find fault with it. They will find fault even if China farts.

India's role in the clash of Civilisations

 Decades ago, some people were already talking about WW3. This would be a war between Whites and Coloured People. Is this turning out to be true? Not so fast, however credible it may be, with India and Japan are already being bought over by the dark side.

The Whites are ganging up as can be seen in the G7. The Five Eyes - Australia, Canada, New Zealand, UK and the USA is another clear-cut example. AUKUS is Australia, UK and USA is a further example.

And here in Asia, Japan and India are turning out to be White pretenders, pandering to the Whites and going against Coloured People. India is part of the QUAD and so is Japan. Soon Japan is getting whiter by joining NATO or Asia-Nato.

India, instead of helping Coloured People, is sabotaging their agenda in BRICS. India is in deep trouble if Modi gets a third term. But Indians are basically ignorant about their future problems. Their only believe is Modi's Hindu cult support, his empty slogans and dictatorial rule. But Modi has never been condemned as a dictator. Xi lifted more than 800 million Chinese out of poverty and is still called a dictator. They must have a new definition for dictators under their 'Rules Based Order' doctrine. They need Modi to remain in power to counter China.

Suffice to say, let the ordinary Indians continue to elect Modi with his cult status, empty slogan chanting and hope this alone can create all the jobs needed for the Indian population that is growing exponentially.

Biden coercing Americans to buy expensive stuff NOT Made in China

 To the Americans, or specifically to Biden and his Washington Circus, China making cheap and good products to sell to the Americans and the rest of the world is bad. China must be stopped from selling these good and affordable stuff to the Ameicans and the rest of the world. Get it?

A slew of sanctions on Chinese products have been rolled out by the Biden Administration against imports of Chinese steel, EVs, solar panels, mobile phones, 5Gs, port cranes, etc etc. In effect, Biden is saying to the Americans, they have no rights and access to buying cheap and good stuff from China. They must buy expensive and often poor quality goods and products Made In America. And the best part, many of these goods and products are not even made in America. It would take years to establish the production and supply lines for these products to reach the American consumers.

The sanctions is now. The poor or not so poor Americans, and even the rich Americans, have to make do with whatever they have, can buy, whatever that is available on the American shelves in Walmart. Caveat, soon Walmart's shelves would be empty of Chinese products.

Would this erection of an economic wall help the Americans and the USA? Would the Americans public be helpless and forced to buy expensive and undesirable goods Made In USA and Europe? A case in point is EVs. The Americans know that they cannot build better and cheaper EVs than China and are now closing their EV factories and singing a new song that ICE cars and hybrids are just as good if not better than EVs. Are the American public that stupid to believe in this lie?

For now, the Americans would have to make do with ICE cars or pay for more expensive Tesla, Made In China but at American prices due to higher tariffs, just like living with their made believe 4.5G and pretending that they are using 5G.

The Empire of Lies are lying to the Americans to live and make do with their own lies. Buy America, pay more for obsolete and poor products Made In America. On the other hand, the rest of the world would be enjoying good quality products Made In China at very cheap and affordable prices.

Good by America. Your cocoon is growing smaller and smaller.
