EU cannot afford an economic war with China...but got thrown under the bus by the Americans

 What will happen is already happening, with industries and businesses moving out to cheaper sources of energy like USA, China and India. The stupid Europeans are just taking aim at China alone, keeping the USA and India out of their fabricated narratives.

India is buying more energy from Russia than China, and yet the whole issue of who is supporting the Russian war machine falls solely on China. All the reasoning put up by the morons in Brussels are just as believable as everyone's grandmother stories or fairy tales by Hans Christian Anderson. By the way Hans Christian Anderson was a Danish writer. Inventing fairy tales runs in European blood.

China's subsidies for its industries falls far short and pale in comparison to what the USA had trotted out to its own domestic and other foreign chip makers to lure them to the USA. But the Europeans chose to ignore all that and keeps hyping up the subsidies by the Chinese Government for its Chinese manufacturing.

In any case, since the EU wants an economic war, China has no way to avoid but to retaliate likewise. The EU cannot go on without the Chinese market, while China can do without the EU market. Sure, there will be impact on both sides, but China has the Global South to push forward, and China knows it can compete hands down with the EU on all products, from EVs, solar panels, wind turbines and other consumer requirements. And China has the BRICS countries to bet on, which is not open to the EU countries. Who is going to win needs no thinking.

USA - Make more wars for prosperity!

 That is why USA Military contractors want more wars. More wars mean bigger defense budget spending, which in turn means more opportunities for them to rip off the USA Government, that in turn will resort to punishing taxpayers who are actually footing the defense bill. More tariffs on imported goods are just one example. Who pays for those tariffs? But the USA voters seem undeterred, and everyone thinks it is a win-win situation for all - the USA Government's inflated ego, the defense contractor's ever bulging pockets and the ignorant public thinking that war means winning everything to make the days of wine and roses continue forever. The decades of free loading have gone to their heads.

They have not learnt or refused to learn the lessons from Vietnam, Afghanistan and now in Ukraine, funding black holes and getting nothing in return but more debts for them and their children to shoulder. The Vietnam War costs the USA US$843 billion, the Afghanistan War costs the USA US$910 billion, and the Iraq War costs the USA US$1.01 trillion, all in 2019 money values. How much is the Ukraine War going to cost?

The irony is that the USA public seems ignorant of the problems escalating within the country besides corruption - the homelessness issue, the drug infestation problem, the fake job statistics and the continued hyping up of the economy on ICU with banks in deep trouble.

The voters have been brainwashed to fix their attention on foreign issues and demonizing Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. The fabrication is going to last until November, and if Trump wins, he will inherit a mess. But Trump and Biden will continue to blame each other for the state of affairs.

After all, it is just four more years for another change-over. Trump, even if he wins in November, cannot be credible to lead after his 2024 term, even if allowed to. He will be more than 82 years old. Right now, he is already not as clear headed as four years ago and prone to gaffes as well, but only better compared to Joe Biden.

Deep States' Playbook - Blame Game. Iran is going to be another Iraq or Afghanistan

 Now they are trying to blame the assassination attempt on Iran and trying hard to make the narrative stick. Russia would have been first on the blame list actually, but that cannot work since Trump is rather friendly with Putin and why would Putin not want Trump to lead for another term, rather than Biden who really started the war in Ukraine.

In fact, many are saying that the blaming of Iran is coming. It is all in the playbook. Iran is seriously considering going nuclear, and the USA cannot do anything, having nothing to leverage now since the end of the nuclear deal. After the issue with Israel, the Iranians are serious about taking the nuclear route, that had been forbidden by their religious constraints. They are going to change all that and not be tied down any further.

China on the other hand would never resort to assassination. China cares little about who sits in the White House, as China knows it is nothing more than the two cheeks of the same arse. Trump or Biden are still following the same anti-China agenda in the Deep State's playbook.

Trump - America was invaded from the South,...raped and massacred?

 In his acceptance speech in Wisconsin, Trump talked about the invasion from the South, about illegal immigrants and promised that if elected, he would start the greatest deportation of illegal immigrants in America. 

Before Trump get carried away, before the hillbillies forgot their history, America was invaded in 1492 and followed by centuries of rape and massacre of the native Americans by the illegal immigrants from Europe. Do these ring a bell? Can the hillbillies remember what happened in the past, what their forefathers, the illegal immigrants, did to the natives of America?

The white illegal immigrants from Europe, including Trump's forefathers, invaded America, raped the natives and massacred them to near extinction? Not true? America only became great 2 decades ago filled with white men?

Donal Trump, ...who invaded America, who raped America, who massacred America?

Trump said many things about making America great again. He promised to end all the evil wars the Americans are committing all over the world, no more wars, and bring home the boys and girls. Let's hope he really do this. It would do a lot of good for the people of the rest of the world without the American terrorists invading their countries, raping them and killing them.

One thing for sure, the evil neo con terrorists in Washington must be worried and planning to end Trump's march to the White House. Trump better be real careful. This time is for real. And this time he would not be so lucky.

Trump's assassination - Blame game to start war with Iran, China and who else

 WASHINGTON: The United States received intelligence in recent weeks about an Iranian plot to assassinate former President Donald Trump, CNN said on Tuesday (Jul 16), and a US official said the Secret Service shared details of an increased threat with the Trump campaign.

The White House declined to comment but said there were no indications that the suspected shooter in Saturday's attempted assassination of Trump had any foreign or domestic accomplices.

Iran said the accusations against it were "unsubstantiated and malicious"....

 “As we have said many times, we have been tracking Iranian threats against former Trump administration officials for years, dating back to the last administration," said Adrienne Watson, spokesperson for the White House National Security Council.

"These threats arise from Iran’s desire to seek revenge for the killing of Qassem Soleimani. We consider this a national and homeland security matter of the highest priority," she said.  CNA

 

This silly America evil blame game has started. First they blame China, and now Iran. The blame game is not so simple or innocent. Remember the blame game on Iraq's WMD, then on Afghanistan on 911?

By blaming a country, it is good enough reason to start planning and then conduct an attack on that country when it suits the American terrorists in Washington. They do not need to have a real or genuine reason. Just an allegation would do. No need facts or proof. Russia is accused of wanting to conquer the rest of Europe and needs to be invaded and taken over. China is accused of being an aggressive power, a threat to the Americans and the rest of the world, wanting to invade America. Therefore, China must be attacked and taken down.

All the silly pro American terrorists all over the world would not want to know the truth or how fake these allegations are. Whatever the evil Americans said, just accept it and do the necessary. Russia is now the primary target, with China next and Iran on the waiting list. Who is starting WW3? The American terrorists are plotting wars and starting wars everywhere and everyday.
