Americans and the Jews plannining to annihilate Iran. American warships are all ready to fire

 You see how the USA is using propaganda and twisting the position in the Middle East to make Israel the victim now, with the coming retaliation by Iran.

The USA is asking the UN to put pressure on Iran not to escalate the Middle East conflict. The UN cannot be seen to be blind as to why Iran needs to retaliate when the Israelis are the ones wanting to expand the war in the Middle East to include Iran and Lebanon.

Iran is the main target of the USA and Israeli attempt to drag it into the conflict so that the USA and Israel can target Iran from going nuclear. If that assassination of the Hamas leader, Ismail Haniyeh on Iranian soil is not provocation, what else is? The reason for his assassination is clear and doing it on Iranian soil is just plain desperation to drag Iran into the conflict and gives the USA a reason to target Iran's plan to possess nukes. Now Iran must take that route of having nukes at all costs, just like North Korea to be safe.

The biggest irony is that Ismail Haniyeh was the material negotiator of the ceasefire deal between Hamas and the Israelis, and his assassination had been called 'madness' by some leaders. This clearly goes to show that the USA and Israel do not want peace in the Middle East by taking him out and instead wants to widen the war against the Islamic States.

Iran and other Islamic state should not be un-nerved by the Israelis talking about more intense retaliation should they attack Israel. This is just more of a rhetoric than substance. Ten months into the war in Gaza, and in spite of its military superiority and USA support, Israel has been unable to put Hamas out of business. Hamas is still alive and providing resistance. How many Hamas leaders have been reported killed, and yet others are rising to take over.

Iran has already proven well enough its ability to overcome the 'Iron Dome' myth, having put it to shame earlier. Israel should be worried this time around, with Hezbollah and the Houthis adding to the equation.

In my wild opinion, it is time for Iran and its allies to sink one USA carrier to put its invincibility to rest, just like putting the Israeli 'Iron Dome' boast into tatters. This is the time to do it, since the USA is posturing around the Gulf region once again with its aircraft carrier on standby. Leaving the job to the Houthis would be ideal.

Russia and China should expand their military co-operation in more countries around the world.

 A few Russian warships and submarines around Venezuela will deter the USA from acting hostile like 'gangsters without morals' trying to steal the Venezuelan oil by force. What Russia did in Syria prevented the USA from taking over the oil. Forget about Western fact checking and claiming otherwise. The USA wanted to control the oil in Syria, which is as good as trying to steal the oil, nothing more, nothing less.

Let me quote Robert de Niro about Trump again - 'Even gangsters have morals'. I think that quote should apply to all USA politicians, Republicans and Democrats alike such as Clinton, Obama and Biden inclusive.

Venezuela is as good a foothold for Russia as Cuba and with today's missile range, that is going to be a good geopolitical move for Russia. What the USA can do in Europe, Russia should do likewise in Central and South America. In fact, Russia and China should expand their military co-operation in more countries around the world.

Do people realize that the USA and the West is discreetly trying to create friction between Russia and China by claiming that Russia and China are vying for influence over North Korea. Such propaganda serves the motive of trying to create in people's mind that Russia and China are not as co-operative as they pretend to be. And that is how the USA propaganda machine generates its propaganda to create friction.

India should move away from its pre-occupation with countering China

 India should move away from its pre-occupation with countering China or wanting to be the next superpower and pandering to the USA's dictate. It is an unproductive mindset, tinged with jealousy and bruised ego.

India should just concentrate internally with developments and eradicating poverty among its people. Forget about what the USA is telling it to do and that is using it to counter China in everything, even in BRICS. Progress will naturally follow when conditions are favorable for investments to flow in. There is no short cut to grow the economy. Trying to stifle and decimate foreign investments by punishing them with retractive laws or forcing them to come under the control of domestic Indian conglomerates is a self-defeating move.

The biggest hindrance and roadblock to progress is India's archaic laws inherited from the British. The British system is a failed system, which is why Rishi Sunak can become PM, and which is why the British Empire has shrunk to what it is today, becoming a minnow trying to swim among the big fish.

Anglo-Saxon Whites still believe in their doctrine of 'divide and rule'

Nothing is clearer than what they did to China during the last century, trying to break up China among their cronies and hoping to rule China the same way as they did in Africa. It worked very well in Africa for centuries. But it failed in China. And their countering today is to have a second bite of the cherry to put China down for them to control. That is a wet dream, and more a nightmare if they were to try.

Karma is now working to divide the USA - internally with political infighting and polarization, and externally with its unfriendly and gangster like behavior that puts others off. But before any conclusion, Karma is already dividing the USA from the Global South countries, with the USA losing more friends and making more enemies. Russia was supposed to be isolated. But today, who are Russia's friends? The whole Global South countries are. And how many are there, and is Russia really isolated as claimed?

The USA is losing influence in ASEAN too, a region it used to be seen favorably when compared to China decades ago. Now ASEAN is more in favor of having China as the power to live with rather than the USA. And why not? China is not playing one ASEAN country against another. China has never dabbled in ASEAN affairs or try to promote communism in Southeast Asia after the fall of South Vietnam and during the era of Deng Xiaoping. It was always a pragmatic co-operation in trade and relations, between China and ASEAN, not instigation for war and sabotage. And today, China does not have to be seen as trying to protect communist ideology against democratic ideals, leaving the verdict to the world at large to judge.

Internally, the USA is one big mess - debts, homelessness, drug infestation, political polarization and battling de-dollarization. Denial about all these issues is not going to make them go away. Kicking the can further down the road just make the problem more difficult and impossible to be resolved. Will the USA eventually break up like the Soviet Union?

Singapore's population is exploding!

Fake Singaporean:
It’s too late. Real Sinkies have been outnumbered.

Yup, agreed. How can a population of 3 million in 1990 increased to >6 million in 2020 when the TFR drop from 1.8 to 1.2 during the period? Easily, 1 in 2 citizens are imported.  TRE

The above is a comment in TRE on the exploding population in Singapore despite the dire TFR of 1.2. Do not believe that this 1.2 TFR is shrinking the population. Population explosion is the problem Singapore is facing today, or welcoming today. And because of this rapid population growth, Singapore is frantically trying to build more flats to cater to the demand for more housing.

This is not the only problem facing Singapore's population explosion. Singapore will face greater pressure for the supply of water and electrical power and also food for the large population beyond its limited space and more jobs and jobs. Every little piece of greenery would be cut down to build homes for its bigger population.

Is this a good thing or a self inflicted wound Singapore intentionally and purposely created for itself? The population growth is self engineered, intended and by designed, without the approval of the Singaporeans. Population growth is a double edged sword. It cuts both ways and can be deadly if not well managed or if there is an economic crisis. The bigger the population, the bigger the problem.

There will be more desperate measures to provide for more water, food and energy in a resource deplete island. Singapore would likely be forced to go nuclear, the most clever solution to cater for the bigger population's need. All measures would be taken to make sure it will be safe. Why not, when Singaporeans are getting more talented and also so many foreign talents working here or becoming Singaporeans, nuclear energy would definitely not be a problem. Sure very safe. No nuclear accident for sure and no need for evacuation from the island.

Trust them. They are hoping that science and technology would be here, in time to meet Singapore's big population needs. Is this putting the horse before the cart or the cart before the horse? Just increase the population and by then a safe nuclear solution would be here waiting for Singapore. If not, just live with the over population problem, with the excessive foreigners in the island, with the need to create employment for them. Oops, new Singapore citizens or residents.

If China and India can have 1.4b population, why can't Singapore have 10, 15 or 20m?
