Kazi Mahmood of Worldfuturetv.com’s article posted in theindependence,
‘China’s hidden hand in its manipulation of North Korea and Trump’ if
real, must be the proof that China is now the most powerful country in
the world. China can manipulate North Korea and Trump which means the
USA, to do its bidding must be quite something.
This is what Kazi Mahmood said,
‘The simple fact that China has allowed Trump to go that far in its
threats against North Korea and has also allowed the North Koreans to go
beyond the imaginable with its long range missile programme, are points
to consider.
These are the very start of the bi-polar world that China is wishing
will be forked out from a US irritation of China’s basic latent stance
on North Korea.
We all know the UN sanctions voted by China at the Security Council
recently is an attempt by Beijing to tell the North Koreans “we are
here, we will interfere when needed hence you should continue with your
long range missile plans.”’
From the above statement, China has allowed Trump to go that far,
meaning China could stop Trump from what he is doing but China just
folded its arms and do nothing is that China is the puppet master and
Trump was just a puppet on a string. China powerful or not? How many of
you think China could tell Trump to shut up and the Americans to stop
what they were doing to North Korea, hands up. What grass is this Kazi
smoking?
Also, China ‘has allowed the North Koreans to go beyond the imaginable
with its long range missile programme’ meaning that China can control
what the North Koreans are doing, like the Americans dictating to its
allies and semi colonies like South Korea and Japan what they could and
could not do. Is North Korea an independent sovereign state or a colony
of China? Is Kim Jung Un someone that China can control and manipulate
and dictate to?
And China could interfere and meddle with the UN Security Council and
with the over powering and menacing presence of the Americans on behalf
of the North Koreans? Didn’t China just been forced to accept the
American proposed new sanctions against North Korea and China could not
say no? If China is so powerful, how could the Americans force China to
accept more sanctions against its ally North Korea?
What this Kazi Mahmood wrote is pure baloney. If he is to be believed,
China must be the most powerful country in the world and making a fool
of the Americans and Donald Trump.
How many of you think this Mahmood is talking sense or nonsense? The
Americans and Trump and North Korea are so easy to be manipulated by
China? Are Trump, Kim and the Americans stupid or what?

Fear not, Singapore is an infinity
I read Chee Soon Juan’s rebut to Lawrence Wong’s optimism about the
unending building programme of Singapore. Lawrence Wong’s position is
that Singapore is still building and a lot more could be built. Sure,
just pull down old inefficient buildings and build higher in an unending
cycle of build, pull down and build. Chee was worried that Singapore’s
land is finite and there was just so much that could be built, just so
much concrete to be poured onto this piece of rock.
I think Chee should not be too worried. Singapore is an infinity. Though Singapore is only 800 sq km, it has unlimited capacity to build and to populate. Chee must have heard of the sky is the limit and the Tower of Babel. Singapore not only can build towards the sky with today’s technology, it can build downwards to the core of mother earth.
Singapore’s land or space is unlimited. That is why some of the very clever people are saying Singapore can house 10m, 15m or 25m people, or may be the whole world. Nothing is impossible if we can buy all the foreign talents to show their talents and make this an infinite island.
In Singapore, everything is infinite. You think the salary of ministers is high? There are plenty of rooms for more pay hikes. And this applies to the CEOs down to the workers. We can pay all our workers higher and higher salaries than the beans of the rest of the world. Our productivity can go up and up and up to justify the high salaries of our workers and still be very competitive. They deserved every cent they are paid and are very productive.
And our properties, see how people are grabbing HDB flats and willing to pay a million dollar for them? This is the other infinity in Singapore. Property prices can only go up and up to high heavens. 99 years? Not to worry, something will happen and the property prices would still go up and up. Soon HDB flats would all be fetching millions of dollars if the trend continues. And private properties would be in hundreds of millions of dollars with workers being paid in the millions to pay for them.
What about the cost of living, the cost of everything? Sure they will go up as well. But not to worry, fear not. Singaporeans would be able to afford all the good things in life no matter how expensive they are. The salaries will just go up and up to match the up and up prices. There is no limit to infinity. Singapore is infinity.
Chee Soon Juan should not be too worried about the limitations of this little piece of rock. Everything is possible when you pay millions to the talented to come out with their miracle solutions. The impossible will become possible. Miracles would be a normal occurrence. Singapore will be a miracle city with towering blocks swinging in the clouds or winding deeply into the caverns of earth. Have faith in this miracle City of Infinity. Everything is infinite. In Singapore, everything has no limits.

The hubris of an Indian chatter in the Indian media
The Indians are now gloating about their success in standing up ‘to
defend’ a small weak state like Bhutan by sending Indian soldiers to
stop Chinese road building along the China Bhutan border. And they are
grinning from ear to ear that all China could do was to bluff that it
would teach India a second lesson while Modi ‘kept his cool, refusing to
respond to any Chinese threat, much less withdraw its forces according
to Bhrahma Chellaney in his article ‘Calling China’s bluff: Why scare
tactics won’t work’ in the Today paper on 14 August.
His reasoning, supposedly someone credible from Project Syndicate, is that China is a warmonger and trying to bluff India by using psywar. India is not afraid of China as it has many advantages and cards to play over China. China would not dare attack the Indian soldiers inside Chinese border for doing so would push India into the American embrace. India is a big market and China would not want to jeopardize it US$60b trade surplus with India. And Xi Jinping would not dare to start a war with India as it would affect his position should he lose the war. China is in a dilemma. So Xi would need India’s help to extricate himself from this stand off to protect his image as a tough leader. Basically what he said is that China is a loser in all counts in this incident.
Chellaney even said the standoff and India’s standing up to China is an important lesson to other regional states to stand up to China, to call China’s bluff as a big bully. India is setting the example for others to follow.
China is now hapless against a tough India and would eventually back off and stop its road building work in the China Bhutan border. India is well fortified, well prepared and in a militarily superior position, just like in the 1962 war.
Who is the big bully and who is going to be evicted from the border is waiting to be seen. Let’s see how long this hilarious gloating would continue, just like the early days of the 1962 Sino Indian border war when they arrogantly thought China would be a pushover and splashed across all the Indian media with their initial successes against unprepared Chinese border guards taken by surprise. By now China would have done all its preparation and waiting for an order to evict the Indian soldiers in Chinese territory.
History is going to repeat itself. The China of today is even prepared to take on the Americans together with all its allies. China hapless against India?

Would the Americans sacrifice South Korea and Japan
In its single minded pursuit of the American Empire would the Americans
sacrifice the South Koreans and Japanese and provoke a war with the
North Koreans under contorted lies that the North Koreans with their two
ICBMs and unproven nuclear bombs are a real and present danger to the
Americans that possessed thousands of nuclear bombs waiting to vaporize
the North Koreans? They have been fabricating this lie for a long time
and wanting to use this lie to stamp their unchallenged position as the
top dog of the world and now is the moment to show the world that they
can do it, to decimate the North Koreans. And in the course of this
madness and delusion for power, South Korea and Japan would be the first
two sacrificial lambs offered to the altar of the hegemon god.
For decades the Americans have dragged the South Koreans by the nose to provoke the North Koreans on a daily basis and could start a war with the slightest fake excuse. Japan too played along thinking that this is just an American mind game to demonise the North Koreans and justify their military occupation of South Korea. Never would they think the Americans would be mad enough to start a nuclear war with North Korea. Now this madness is becoming a threatening nightmare and could become a reality at any moment.
The South Koreans are the first to panic. President Moon Jae in has been quoted to have said, ‘resolving North Korea’s nuclear ambitions must be done peacefully…There must be no more war on the Korean peninsula. Whatever ups and downs we face, the North Korean nuclear situation must be resolved peacefully. I am certain the United States will respond to the current situation calmly and responsibly in a stance that is equal to ours.’ Moon also said that only the South Koreans could decide to go to war. He is rather naïve to think so as the massive American military presence is beyond his control and the Americans could precipitate a war at their call. The Americans are in charge and calling the shot.
The fear and concern of Moon may be too late when a lunatic is in the White House surrounded by military hawks. The Americans have been pressing for war for a long time, not for fun, not just military exercises to threaten the North Koreans. All options are on the table, guns are loaded.
The top American general Joseph Dunford has taken note of the South Koreans’ fear and is in Seoul to reassure that war is not on the card. However, war is still an option if diplomatic and economic pressure failed ‘to achieve the complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization of the Korean peninsula and a dismantling of the regime’s ballistic missile programmes.’ This last part confirmed by both Matthis and Tillerson is the key to American’s position and this last part is not negotiable as far as the North Koreans are concerned.
The Americans are adamant to go to war as the North Koreans are not going to give up their nuclear arsenal. The assurance by Gen Dunford is as good as no assurance. It is looking very real that the South Koreans and Japanese are going to be sacrificed to serve the American hegemonic ambition. The start of a war would see South Korea and Japan as the main targets for destruction. The Americans in their homeland are safe. Would they care about what would happen to the South Koreans and the Japanese?
This is the heavy price that South Korea and Japan would have to pay for dancing and sleeping with the devil. The Americans can afford to start a war now as they probably think the North Koreans would not be able to hit homeland America and if they could, only a handful of prototype ICBMs that could be taken down quite easily. This is the time to destroy the North Korean nuclear ambition before it is too late.
Good bye South Koreans and Japanese. You have been good friends to the Americans.
Both the South Koreans and the Japanese are shitting in their pants now. This is what they get when playing with fire and conspiring with the Americans. Their lives are not important to the Americans. The memorials in Nagasaki and Hiroshima are reminders of what would happen again should the US attack N Korea. N Korea would lob as many nuclear bombs they have into American bases in Japan.
The only piece of good news yesterday was that Kim Jung Un has proven to be a reasonable and rational man, not mad like Trump as the Americans would want the world to believe it, for calling off the threat to send missiles around Guam. This move has helped to lower tension provided the mad Trump did not see this as a sign of weakness and press ahead with more provocations.
Would Trump and his mad men and women in Washington take this as a face saving move to deescalate tension in the Korean peninsula? Or would they still think of sacrificing South Korea and Japan in their hegemonic ambition to start another war in Asia, away from the American homeland?

What is a Rogue Empire?
This phrase is quite familiar and similar to what is a rogue govt. A
Rogue Empire will never tell you that it is rogue. In fact it would tell
you they are angels of God, out to do good, to protect you, to save
you, you needed them for your own good while they eat your lunch.
After being fed a life time by western media, believing in the Americans and the West as the saviours of human kind, the white gods, is understandable. The glory of the Americans has its roots in the victory over evil Germany and Japan and the rebuilding of Europe with the Marshall Plan for Europeans, and a new world order that allowed the rest of the world to have peace and stability to rebuild themselves. The peace was not that the Americans willed it but there were no evil Japan and Germany to want to conquer the world. The Americans were in fact conducting another war with the Communist bloc, the Cold War. When this war ended, the Americans continue with more wars in Korea, Vietnam and the Middle East.
The Americans today are living on these past glories and nothing more. Since then, they have been engrossed in building and preserving their Empire by building military bases all over the world and oppressing and destroying any country that did not bow to the will of the Empire like Korea, Vietnam and the Arab countries.
They waved the flags of freedom, international responsibility and rule of law but violated every one of these ideals in the interests of the Empire. They conducted tens of regime change, destabilized countries, invasion, conducting wars, and creating instability all over the world using these as justifications.
In the name of freedom and international responsibility, they have invaded countries and destroyed the lives of many people since the end of WW2. In the name of rule of law, they have violated all the international laws to dominate the world. They ignored these laws and would not be bound by these laws but used these laws to threaten and bully other nation states. They talked about saving the world but would not rectify the Paris Climate Change agreements. They talked about respecting international laws but would not rectify UNCLOS. They talked about being responsible international citizens but created all kinds of fake excuses to invade countries, support and breeding terrorist organizations.
They talked about free trade but killed the TPP, a supposedly trade pact for free trade at least within the pact countries and turned towards an isolationist trade policy. In the name of peace they started wars in all corners of the world.
The Americans break all international laws, they are above the laws, they are lawless, they are the outlaws. They expect all countries to observe international norms and laws except themselves, and elevated themselves as the Number One International Outlaw.
This is what a Rogue Empire is all about. They used all kinds of laws to bully other nation states, twisted the interpretation of laws to their own interest. Used the rule of law and international organizations to threaten and attack other nation states.
Think about it. Remove your blinkers and call a spade a spade. A Rogue Empire is a Rogue Empire. Their only reason to exist is to protect the Empire, to rule the world by destabilizing the world to support their only industry, the war industry and their war machine. They have nothing else useful to contribute to the world. They needed a chaotic world to divide the world for world supremacy, to justify the US$600 billion budget and more than 1000 military bases around the world.
This is as stark and as real as you can get, The USA is a Rogue Empire.
