China will welcome anyone to its space station without fear of sabotage
Bleeding the bankrupt American Empire
The Washington clowns only think that they are the smartest people in town. They decided everything, planned and schemed everything for their own advantage. They thought so. All their schemes will work as planned. They planned for years to bring down Russia and Ukraine was the opening move to start a war and drain the resources of Russia. They imposed the mother of all sanctions to bleed Russia dry.
3 years have gone by, the war is turning the favour Russia. The total defeat of the Ukrainian Neo Nazi regime is around the corner. The Russian economy is intact and getting stronger, did not collapse. Which economy or economies are collapsing? The writing is on the wall. Europe is gasping for air, its last gasp. The American economy is also in the same shape except that it could print more toilet papers to keep up the pretence for a little while longer. It also benefitted from squeezing the Europeans to buy expensive American gas and oil and goods at exorbitant prices. The Americans have burnt billions and billions in Ukraine but has got not a cent back from Ukraine. The amount spent is in the account books, waiting to be squared.
The Americans also tried everything to bleed China, to stop its growth, through all kinds of wars and sanctions. The Chinese economy also did not collapse but growing bigger by the day. It is the American economy that is in the ICU. Bankruptcies are rampant in America, companies and factories, retail outlets closing every day. But the Americans are gloating that all is fine. Unemployment has gone down, inflation gone down, cost of living gone down...if these are true. But never mind. The American media are reporting all the good news, and the hillbillies and rednecks are not hurt yet except those that are living from paycheck to paycheck, the families with children to feed.
The Americans are still engaging in wars, enthusiastically trying to start more wars. They believe they have all the money to fight more wars. They can issue more bonds to borrow more money, to print more money. Money would not run out. American dollar will be in demand for many years to come despite dedollarisation.
The Military Industrial War Complex are also very happy. Fabricating all the excuses to produce and manufacture more and more expensive weapons to fight more expensive wars. Never mind if the aircraft carriers and warships are no longer relevant in modern warfare. Never mind if a few thousand dollar missile could sink a multi million or multi billion aircraft carrier, warship or warplane. There are still plenty of money to be made. Just keep printing more money, raise more taxes, it is only the taxpayers that are paying.
On the other side of the war equation, the enemies are not building expensive warplanes or warships to fight the Americans. They are fighting the Americans with cheap missiles, rockets, drones, like throwing stones at the expensive American war machine. And it still works. The slippers wearing Houthis are effectively blocking the American aircraft carriers and warships in the Red Sea. Russia has given them the deadly anti aircraft carrier hypersonic Yakhont missiles. The Russians must have also deployed these in the Caribbean, waiting to sink aircraft carrier and warships there. Russian weapons are now in many Central and Latin American states.
It is called asymmetrical warfare. Fighting cheap and lean against fat, sloppy and expensive American men and machine. A Houthis fighter needs only $2000 a year to fight. A GI needs $100,000 a year to upkeep. Putting an aircraft carrier at sea costs at least $5m a day, just floating around, without firing a shot. Who can last longer in this kind of warfare? Who is bleeding who to death? Don't tell the clowns in Washington. They would not know. They cannot see what is happening. Shhhhh, don't tell them.
The 800 American bases overseas, not counting those inside America homeland, the thousands of men in each aircraft carrier, the multi million dollar a shot defensive missiles, the F35s, F15s and F16s, all needs to be filled up or fed with money. The American money printing machine is printing overtime.
When would the American economy be bled dry? Or already bankrupt many times. No need to place any trade sanction against America. American is bleeding by self inflicted wounds.
The Americans and West want to cripple China's economy, China can do likewise to them
Just by crippling ASML, the lithography machine manufacturer, with its rare earth deprivation will also cripple all the other chipmakers in Arizona and Japan eventually. Sure, ASML and other downstream chipmakers may have stocks of rare earth elements to tide them over for the time being, but in this cut-throat world of cost-saving, keeping only 'just in time' stocks for about one or two weeks or even shorter is the norm. What happens when those stocks run out is a moot question.
Like automakers in USA, Europe and Japan, cutting off Nexperia chips by China saw Honda, Nissan and VW cutting production and suffering massive losses. They had exhausted their Nexperia supplied chips and cannot move forward with their production. They had everything necessary to make a car, except just the Nexperia chips alone, which stalled all the production. Some may resort to black market deals, but China will make sure that the loophole will close, just like the attempts to smuggle soya beans using fake country of origin being discovered and closed up. South Korea and India were also reselling rare earth sourced from China and are now suffering the consequences in their own industry.

Killing Whites is terrorism. Killing coloured people is not a crime
Whereas the Coloured Peoples killed by the millions by them are Pariahs.
Now actually they the White Savages are the Ones who caused all the Chaos in the Invasions and upheavals of these socalled non White Countries and they hypocritically accepted them as asylums.
Now they started killing the Whites as Karmas and they blamed those with the same religions of those peaceful countries also as Terrorists and banned them.
Whereas they are the Ones on their damn Whites equally Bullshits Crusades against other non believers who don't believe in their Murderous Religion.

Rogue America wants China to behave like them...be careful of what you are asking for
Why must China play the same game as what the USA and the West wanted it, when its survival is at stake. Trump is not happy and had always been complaining that China is not playing the same game in the economic, military and geopolitical arena.
The USA and the West and its hedge fund owners particularly, want China to allow them freely to tear China and Hong Kong's economy to bits with attacks on their stock market, property market and financial system. They want to show the world that socialism is a fragile system, unable to weigh up to the Western system and easily brought down by outside attacks. Instead, China has withstood all the attacks using religion, drugging, forming gangs to tear China apart, trade wars, technology wars and tariff wars. What else is next?
