The only weapon left for the Empire of Lies is lie and more lies

 To put in perspective, China only exported about 16% of EVs manufactured in the country. 84% of EVs made in China are sold domestically at present. Where is the overcapacity that China is flooding the world with EVs that the USA and EU are talking about? Even dumping is a lie as EVs sold in China are much cheaper than those sold outside China.

The USA, EU and Japan are playing catch up in EV production, but knowing they could never compete on a level playing field. First and most importantly they do not have control over most of the raw materials like Lithium as well as the processing facilities, which are in Chinese hands. The Japanese knew that much earlier and moved away from EVs, and instead concentrated mainly on developing Hydrogen Fueled and hybrid vehicles.

EVs made in USA, EU or Japan are a couple of times more expensive, cost wise, and need to be sold more expensively than Chinese EVs in order to survive. How are they going to compete with China's intent on dominating the EV market globally? They are desperately trying to put hurdles on Chinese EV manufacturers, which will impact on their own citizens having to pay more for EVs with higher tariffs.

These three legacy ICE vehicle manufacturers in USA, EU and Japan knew that 16% of Chinese EV export now is going to shoot up and dominate the market globally going forward, and they had to nip it in the bud to prevent that happening. Thus, the accusation of over-capacity is one narrative they have to invent and keep repeating to rein China in. Just as repeating the fake genocide in Xinjiang, which is now quietly overtaken by the real genocide in Gaza.

With Huawei, it was about National Security Issues. With EVs it is now about overcapacity. With semiconductors it is about containing China's rise. They will invent fake narratives to fit their agenda. Where is the proof even in the context of Huawei after so many years?

What about inventing WMD to invade Iraq? What about fermenting the fear of the fall of the dominoes in Southeast Asia in order to go to war with North Vietnam? What about creating a false flag 911 to invade Afghanistan? See the drift?

Mickey Mouse dictionary of a ship

 Picture credit to Reuters

According to a Mickey Mouse dictionary, the above pic is a ship. According to a normal dictionary, this would be called a wreck or scrap iron.

A local reporter said that a picture of the above was put up by a kindergarten teacher and telling the children, this is a ship. The whole class roared into unstoppable laughter. No, no, no, this is not a ship. This is a piece of wreck.The local teacher was a bit annoyed and insisted that it was a ship. Can you imagine that the kindergarten children protested and would not call this a ship? And they staged a walk out.

How could stupid adults called this a ship?

Gaza Genocide - Genocide of 35,000 Palestinians is not heinous?

 This is the typical Anglo Saxon moral narrative to suit their savage aggression against the Arabs and Palestinians and coloured people of the world. Massacring tens of thousands of civilians, mothers, women and children is par for the course, nothing more, nothing less. No need to have sleepless night over their death. They are animals or at best subhumans. But the killing of 1,200 Israelis and holding a couple of hundreds as hostages are heinous. Not forgetting that according to several reports, many of the Israeli dead were killed by Israeli fire, not by the so called Palestinian terrorists. 

The Palestinians are freedom fighters. The Hamas are fighting for their independence from the Israeli occupation forces stealing their land. The Israeli and the Anglo Saxon media have turned the narrative around to call the Hamas as terrorists. The real terrorists are the invading forces of American and Israeli soldiers in Palestine. They have deceived the world and the western educated 'unthinking' elites that they are not terrorists but the Hamas are. 

Where on earth can an invading force, the terrorists, has the right of self defence. This claim is utterly false and unacceptable to rational and thinking people. The Americans/Anglo Saxons in connivance with the Israelis, have been lying and cheating the Palestinians and the Arabs and Muslims that they were negotiating for a two state solution for a Palestinian state. This lie has been exposed and confirmed recently in the UN when the treacherous Americans vetoed a motion for a state of Palestine. More than 70 years of lies and deceit by the Americans and Israelis have come to a head. No more lies. The truth is staring in the face of the whole world. Only very silly people would still believe in the American/Anglo Saxon and Israeli lies. They are out to terminate the Palestinians and steal their land. Period.

What is happening in Palestine is not a war, never a war. It is invasion and occupation by a foreign power supported by the devious and scheming Americans and Brits, to insert a state of Israel in the heart of the Arab and Muslim world, to control and rule the Arabs and Muslim states. And they have been very successful for almost 70 years, playing up the rivalry between the Sunni and Shite tribes, incite and manipulate them to fight and kill each other in a never ending war.

What is happening in Palestine is not terrorism by the Hamas. It is not a war on terrorism. If it is, the terrorists are the invading Israelis and American forces on the homeland of the Palestinians. There was no Israeli state until the evil Anglo Saxon hatched a plot to take control of the Arab and Muslim land by transferring European Jews, that did not die in the pogrom and German concentration camps, into Palestine, then colonised by the Brits.

What is happening in Gaza is not a war, is not a war on terrorism. It is Genocide against the Palestinian people. It is ethnic cleansing. The Palestinians are not terrorists but freedom fighters defending their land and freedom against the invading Israelis and American forces. Do not fall into the propaganda trap of the Americans and the Jews by calling this a war on terrorism. It is pure and simple Genocide of a hapless people condemned and branded as animals and subhumans by the Jews.

It is a shame that the world allows this to happen and cannot do anything about it, and foolishly calling this a war against terrorism when the real terrorists told them so. No one has the balls to tell the truth, to call a spade a spade and hiding against false narrative that the Hamas are terrorists. The Hamas and Palestinians are the victims of occupation and Genocide by the Americans and the Israelis.

The Genocide of more than 35,000 civilians, women, children, and many facing famine and starvation, deprived of food and medicine, IS NOT HEINOUS? It is Barbarism, it is Savagery! Where is the condemnation by so called principled and righteous states, organisations, groups and people? Not even the UN or ICC would dare to condemn the Americans and the Israelis in their massacre of the Palestinians as heinous.

USA and the West are destroying themselves while trying to destroy others

 Just watch how the USA and the West are destroying themselves trying to destroy others.

The USA wanted to destroy Russia and ended up destroying Europe. The USA wanted to destroy the Muslims in the Middle East and ended up destroying their own influence and will take Israel down with it. Now the whole Xinjiang demonization exercise is turning into dust, with all the foreign visitors reporting what they actually saw and featuring them on Youtube to counter all the MSM propaganda. Worst still is for those foreigners to discover that they had been lied to by their Government and MSM.

Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and the Philippines will be the next sacrificial lambs for the USA.

Even without resorting to war, decoupling from China is already creating enormous backdraft for the USA and the EU. They are caught between a rock and a hard place. The USA will never be able to lure industries back to the USA even if it tried to with subsidies galore. The conditions are not conducive for that. Domestic hurdles have to be addressed, cost of production will have to come down to make the products competitive and there is China looming, controlling most raw materials and processing facilities, and having the capacity to pose unsolvable problems for such investments.

Already, dealing with Russia is so difficult to overcome. Biden boasted that sanctions will turn the Russian Ruble into rubble and lead to the collapse of Russia. Really? Some of the EU countries are still buying Russian energy and all that talk about how successful the sanctions are is just bullshitting. Even setting oil price caps did not work. Who are they trying to kid when sanctions against Cuba, North Korea and Iran half a century ago were not working. And expecting the more than 16,000 sanctions against Russia to work? No kidding!

Xi's European tour welcome with pomp and galore befitting of a new world leader

 Xi Jinping's reception during his visit to Serbia and Hungary must have made the USA and EU vis a vis NATO extremely jealous, nervous and insecure. China is making inroads in Europe and that is not lost on them.

Xi was overwhelmed by supporters in Serbia, welcomed by cheering crowds by the thousands. He was even given a Military style welcome in Hungary, with mounted calvary and troop marchpast. It was a grand welcome for a foreign leader. Just like his visit to Saudi Arabia where he was even given a ceremonial fly-past salute by the Saudi Arabian air force. Compared to Biden's visit to Saudi Arabia earlier that year, which was a slap on the face that indicate 'You are not welcome'.

And what were achieved by Serbia and Hungary during Xi's visit? Plenty of economic goodies in trade and development. What was not in Xi's agenda however was about the countering of other countries in the region, though Xi was asked to use his influence to end the Ukraine War. With the USA and NATO fueling the conflict, why would China want to step in? Undoubtedly the USA has the final say in the conflict, and China stepping in is not to their liking for sure.

Serbia is not a member of the EU nor NATO. Serbia applied to join the EU but had been kept on hold, probably a hostage measure over some issues. It was a blessing in disguise. Hungary is a member of both and is the lone voice against the other EU and NATO members. Both countries are now still dependent on energy supplied by Russia. They will prosper with China's help.
