Mongolia had plenty of rare earths that the USA had bulging green eyes to exploit, but due to its enclosed position without seaports, the idea had to be abandoned. China and Russia would not allow the use of their ports to be used by Mongolia, knowing they will be helping the USA instead.
Now, think about mining rare earth in space. The cost would be astronomical if even possible. Stupid idea from stupid people playing stupid games and getting stupid prizes is all I can think of.
The USA is looking for trouble trying to seize vessels operated by China and Iran, hoping to find something of technological value to steal. China can easily send its weapons sold to Iran by rail now. No sweat! The USA is now placing sanctions on 29 Iranian vessels. As I said earlier, those living in glass houses should not try to throw stones. Iran can retaliate very easily, targeting ships operated by the USA and Israel around the Middle East.
The USA tried to target China's shipbuilding industry by raising levies on Chinese built or operated ships and China did the same to them. Chinese ships now avoid calling at USA ports and instead went to European ports. After all, China is in no mood to continue to trade with the USA. Is that a problem? Despite all the news about port fees being imposed, China is still doing a roaring trade with the rest of the world and chalking up a trade surplus of more than US$1 trillion. That must be agonizing news to swallow for the USA.

Well, you never know as the clowns are fond of putting the cart before the horse. I understand the USA is now jumping to 7G and avoiding 6G in order to be ahead of China according to some sources. True or not is the mystery. 5G is already so troublesome and trying 7G is attempting to catch fish in deep water using hands.
Most of 5G and 6G patents are now in the hands of Chinese companies, so 6G setups need to pay patent rights to Chinese companies. That is the real issue, I think.
Hitler and Napolean never expected to lose against the Soviet Union. Having said that, Ukraine was supposed to be winning the war against Russia. If so, what is the hullaballoo all about now, trying to force countries not to support Russia nor buying Russian energy?
After North Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan, the lessons have not been learnt.
The only lessons being hyped up relates to WW2 exploits, the Normandy landing, the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the surrender of Japan. Everything is different today in terms of weapons, reach, newer and better weapons, drones and AI supported military intelligence.
And China is not China during WW2. This is a totally different China.
