Ukraine War - Great news, North Korea joining the war

 North Korea is sending 12,000 soldiers to fight on the side of Russia against the American/European and Nazis. This move is unprecedented since the Korean War, a momentous event in international affairs. It directly pokes the American terrorists right in their eyes. In a way it is shocking to the lawless American terrorists. No country has ever confronted the Americans so directly without fear of retaliation since 1950.

The American terrorists have been terrorising the world with their lawless Rules Based Order, meaning what is right or wrong, acceptable or not acceptable, is dictated by the American terrorists. The American terrorists can start wars with any country, interfere and remove popularly elected govt, at their whims and fancy, and no one can stop them or even complain about it. The American terrorists can commit war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide, ethnic cleansing, and no one dares to even say so. The ICJ and ICC would not dare to prosecute any American murderers or be assassinated. Instead, for conducting wars of invasion, they are even rewarded with the infamous and now rotten and smelly Nobel Peace Prize.

Countries are lucky if the Americans just sanctioned them for standing up against the Americans or supporting the enemies of the Americans. In this move, Kim Jung Un has as good as showing the middle finger to the American terrorists. He is supporting the Russians and fighting the Americans in a war! What can the Americans do about it?

And when the American terrorists are forming international terrorist gangs which they called military alliances, it is for peace. But other countries cannot do the same and would be called a threat to peace and security if they do so. And while the American terrorists can gather all their international terrorist gangs to support them in their wars of aggression, other countries cannot support their enemies to fight the American terrorists.  For instance the Ukraine War and the Gaza Genocide, only the American terrorists and their doggies and cronies can join them in the fight against. Any country joining Russia would be condemned as terrorists and be attacked and sanctioned, be called enemies.

Kim Jung Un's move is a sign of a big shift in international perception and reaction to the evil American Empire. The North Koreans are standing up to the American terrorists and inviting the rest of the world to do so. More countries would be thinking of joining the Russian side as well. The Arab and Muslim countries may be encouraged to join the Iranian and the Arab/Muslim freedom fighters in Palestine, Yemen, Lebanon, Iraq and Syria to fight the American terrorists and Israelis Zionists.

The gate is wide open to confront the American terrorists directly as a united front. This is a major change. After the BRICS Summit in Kazan when a new alternative banking system and currency are announced and put in place, Global South countries would have no more fear or reservation to take sides against the American and European terrorists. Sanctions would no longer work. They would be free to act like the North Koreans, free to act on their national interests and on principles, to call out the American murderers and Israelis Zionist in the genocide of the Palestinians. Principled countries would then be really principled and not pretending to be principled, insulting the meaning of principles.

Great changes are coming, and North Korea has made the first move to show the way to a more just, equitable, fairer and freer world. Kim Jung Un has called out the real devil in name, by his action.

Only fools would not sell to the biggest market and would not buy from the cheapest seller

 Just wondering about the price of grapes that is now unthinkably cheap in Singapore. I understand grapes are even grown in South America, China, India, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar and I believe also in Malaysia. This is probably the reason for the competition forcing cheap grapes to be marketed here in Singapore.

So, how do grapes from USA and EU vineyards hope to compete? The answer is obvious. Even wine making is not enough to soak up the demand. Therefore, the future of vineyards in USA and EU are not that rosy. The USA can harp on the technology war against China, while taking their eyes away from other sectors. The same mistake they made of ignoring China over the last three decades and now fighting a losing battle. The USA was so embroiled in fighting terrorism then, it overlooked China rising.

Agriculture and livestock farming in the USA and EU are facing an uncertain future with China now targeting the two sectors. This is going to be a very important development, as without the China market, the agriculture and livestock farming sector in USA and EU are also going to shrink. A shrinking market will obviously shrink the sectors production capacity. That is basic knowledge.

China buying more grain and meat from the Global South countries like Brazil and Argentina and now Russia, will be a big loss for the USA and EU. That will give the Global South countries more incentives to grow more and raise more cattle and pigs for the Chinese market and decimate the Global North countries.

China is fighting a trade war against the West, using countermeasures that are going for the jugular and hurts the most. China is not fighting a trade war blindly like the USA and EU, that leaves gaping holes that are to be filled by alternative suppliers inside BRICS. China is going to decimate the West's agriculture and livestock production facilities and food security issues for them going forward.

USA and the West are producing politicians that are the laughing stock of the world

 Why is it that the USA and the West are producing politicians that are the laughingstock of the world. The most intelligent politicians that I come across on social media seems to come from some of the least or lesser- known countries of the world.

It really boggles the mind that some leaders in less developed countries are so smart and streetwise that they put the Western Leaders truly in the shade. Just watch how brilliant some leaders are, like Barbados PM Mia Amor Mottley. Her take on issues excellent, her countering of Western bias profound, her arguments solid, her conduct impeccable. Some African leaders today are equally outstanding.

The problem is that the MSM never gave them much coverage, only intent on giving valuable airtime to such ignoramus like Zelenskyy, Blinken, Ursula von der Leyen, stuttering Biden, gangster Trump and shrieking Kamala. Sometimes I really cannot understand what the latter three are talking about. They sounded gibberish, incoherent and senseless. Is English undergoing a renaissance that people like me now cannot understand without upgrading?

Karma works...Europe going from first world to third

 Karma works in mysterious ways. Now it is Europe going from first world to third, while Africa is rising from third world to second. No, not first world yet to be fair, but is possible. Never say never is what I always believe in.

Forty years ago, can anyone envisage Japan stagnating over the next three decades? Forty years ago, can anyone dare to bet against Germany getting gutted like this today? And forty years ago, does anyone ever expected China to rise so fast, making the USA nervous, paranoid, fearful and clueless, without a war to speak of.

Twenty years ago, Gordon Chang was harping about the collapse of China, when China was not even as developed as what it is today. Just harping on something does not always result in that happening. Did China collapse despite all the prophecy of gloom and doom? There was much harping over the collapse of Russia. Does Russia today even appear to collapse?

There is a God in heaven that makes all the decisions, above all human power and showboating. Man proposes and only God disposes. What God can do is shown in the recent Hurricane Milton and the tornadoes that followed in its trail. Does human power, all the nukes, submarines, aircraft carriers, F35s have an answer?

President Trump would ban EVs in the USA...and its colonies and crony states

 Trump is a fan of fossil fuel extraction. He even encouraged investments in fracking to extract more oil during his first term. To support his ideal of more fossil fuel extraction, Trump even claims that climate change issues are a farce. If Trump wins in November, ICE vehicle manufacturers in USA and Europe will be given a new short lease of life and EVs will not be allowed to proliferate in the USA and Europe.

But then, how are ICE vehicles manufactured in USA and Europe going to sell their vehicles outside of USA and Europe? Elsewhere around the world, climate change issues are encouraging countries to promote the use of EVs, instead of expensive polluting ICE vehicles. China is getting rid of ICE vehicles with registration for EVs encouraged and ICE vehicles not favored by Chinese citizens. EVs sold in South America, Africa, Middle East and ASEAN will be much cheaper than ICE vehicles without all the tariffs factored in. How are those vehicles from USA and Europe going to compete in markets outside the country? Either ICE vehicles manufacturers move with the tide or face imminent decline. The decline will be either fast or gradual. Keeping EVs out of the USA will just lead to a gradual decline and cannot be avoided. It will also stifle innovation in EV technology and be further behind China.

It is realistically a massive problem for the USA to encourage the migration from ICE vehicles to EVs. There are not enough recharging stations across the country to encourage US citizens to buy EVs. Unlike China, where charging stations are built across the whole country, the USA has not even started on its EV journey by building such charging facilities and it will take massive investments to catch up. It will take years even if it tries to do it now. By then, with EVs innovations, being introduced fast and furious, may make such massive investments in building charging stations end up as white elephants. Nio and Tesla are about to introduce the game changing idea of EVs without batteries to sell at even cheaper prices, using battery swapping technology. And the building of battery swap stations in China are picking up steam. If such endeavor succeeds, the novelty of charging stations may take a hit.
