Emperor is the most prolific warmonger

 Trump professes to want peace in Ukraine but is already starting a new war in the Middle East against the Houthis, intending to drag Iran into the turmoil. I think many people have been fooled by Trump's conman tactics trying to show that he is different from Biden and pulling back USA military adventurism, just in Ukraine.

As I always say, any USA President, whether from Democrats or Republicans camps are just the right and left arm of the Deep State and can never have a mindset of trying to be a peaceful country.

In the recent past, fighting communism was the narrative which was what the Korean and Vietnam Wars were all about. With the rise of China, under a communist regime, the arguments about the failure of communism held no water.

When Russia and China discarded their communism expansion doctrine, the USA started a new narrative of fighting terrorism which resulted in the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars. Communism was then thrust into the back burner, never to be a justifiable reason for wars.

Now the Wars in Ukraine is about revisiting the threat from Russia, accusing the Russians of trying to claim back territories it lost when the Soviet Union broke up. The reality is the exact opposite, with NATO discreetly trying to expand towards the Russian border. What happened in Ukraine goes much further back than just February 2022, when Russia liberated the Donbass region, when Russian speaking citizens went under intense persecution by the Kyiv Regime of Zelenskyy.

The USA is stoking the fire in the South China Sea now, intending to ignite another conflict with China.

Any man of peace does not go around starting wars all over the world. Trump is no different from any former USA Presidents, just using the same old USA playbook and intent on having never ending wars to sustain the USA hegemonic agenda.

Yemen could be the Vietnam again for the Americans

 The USA had been involved in the Saudi Arabia/Yemen conflict for over seven years, supplying weapons to the Saudis, but still unable to win the fight. In fact, many people around the world had been saying that there was a catastrophic humanitarian crisis in Yemen involving refugees then, more serious than in Ukraine, but the whole world just closed its eyes feigning ignorance with the situation, just because that was being ignored by the MSM. Out of the news, out of mind seems to be the case.

After the peace deal on March 10, 2023, between Iran and Saudi Arabia brokered by the Chinese, things quietened down for a while after Iran's support for the Yemenis were no longer needed to fight the Saudis.

Hostilities between Israel and the Houthis erupted with the start of the war between Israel and Hamas in October 2023, during which the Houthis began to show its support for Hamas, and with the USA supporting Israel, the Houthis began to attack USA and Israeli shipping.

The USA may be thinking of having boots on the ground in Yemen, which will be another Afghanistan version 2. The lesson still not registering in the minds of the USA leaders is the believe that might is always right, which does not always equate to victory. Lesson have obviously not been learnt from the Vietnam and Afghanistan War. Then, the USA, with its aerial power, had been bombing the Vietcong day and night, with more than seven and a half million tons of bombs dropped on Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, the largest aerial bombardment in military history, and yet still without securing a victory.

The Houthis are just as tenacious as the Vietcong, and with weapons support from Iran, they are unlikely to back down, threats or not from Trump. The USA is not in a strong position in terms of weapon manufacturing, not with China sanctioning the export of essential metals for making bombs and other weapons like drones.

Empires fall when clowns, nitwits and gangsters enter politics

 Empires fall when clowns, nitwits and gangsters enter politics, an area they are least able to have any positive impact. Clowns belong to a circus; nitwits do not qualify to run a country, and gangsters are only capable of robbing the country that it was chosen to guard against in the first place. Adding to that are the 'eunuchs', or those 'advisers' in government, the 'journalists' in MSM and those running the propaganda machine that are contributing to the perceptive decline. Lest we forget, Dynasties in olden China falling into decay were also largely due to the 'eunuchs' interfering with the running of the country and influencing the decision of the emperor.

The USA is showing late symptoms of being run by clowns, nitwits and gangsters, though that has been in constant denial over the last two decades. But the harm had already been done, the swamp is too deep to be drained, the bottom of the barrel has fallen out due to over scraping. Real talents, with lack of monetary support or wealth, are not being given any opportunity to run for office. Perhaps it is the decision of the Deep State to exert better control over fake talents being chosen to run the country, not realizing that those chosen are running the country into the ground.

The USA chose to ignore the danger of outsourcing manufacturing, only looking at the ease of enjoying the fruits of labor of poorer countries and just be content to keep printing toilet papers in exchange. This privilege could not be enjoyed by others like China, and its manufacturing buildup is not a choice, but a necessity. The rest is history. Yet, the USA is now turning the narrative into one of China stealing USA jobs, jobs that the USA probably do not think necessary to retain in the face of its privilege of just being able to continue printing and enjoying. Moreover, it has now been exposed by Tim Cook that China's edge in manufacturing is not due to its cheap 'slave labor', a point constantly narrated, but its use of automation and robotics, its skilled workers and it's employment of 'economies of scale' to cut down cost, especially fixed cost attributed to land, factory and machinery. A huge domestic market is very important for China in this respect with its support for its 'economies of scale'.

Trump waving his magic wand frantically but achieving nothing

 Trump's phone call with Putin achieved absolutely nothing, even though Trump is making a song and dance about it. Putin brushed aside his 30-day truce ploy and only agree not to strike at Ukraine's energy grid for 30-days. That is hardly anything to gloat about.

Winter is almost over in Europe and a 30-day truce of not striking at Ukraine's energy grid is not a priority for Putin right now. He can always concentrate on military targets like tanks, artillery and ammunition factories, railway lines and airports, and let the Ukrainian rebuild those electrical grids that have already been destroyed for the next Russian strike after the 30-day truce is over. Who is really setting a trap for whom now?

Trump is indeed gloating about a first step towards peace in Ukraine in the face of just asking Putin not to strike at Ukraine's energy grid. Whatever happened to his boasting about settling the war within 24 hours of taking office? Everybody heard that and knew that it is an absolute impossibility, but nobody is talking about it. It is mind boggling that a person could just spout nonsense about his ability, could not be expected to carry it out which everyone knows, and yet gets elected as the President of the USA. How credible can that person honestly be, for all other countries to put their trust in him, is just, should I say incredible. I guess under 'Rules Based Order' anything is possible.

Ukraine War - Trust the American terrorists?

 Trust the Americans, believe in the Americans, the Americans are in control of the world, and the Americans have everything worked out. These are the things that President Blinken and his sleeping partner told Zelensky. They also promised him that Ukraine would join NATO, and America would support him for as long as it takes to bring down Russia. Clown Zelensky was awed and overjoyed that he has the full support of the Empire of the world. How could he resist such temptations, that he could rule Ukraine like a dictator for as long as he wants.

The Americans have great plans, for the Empire, not for the rest of the world. Oops, let me correct this statement. The Americans also have great plans for the rest of the world, to be used to serve the American interests as their pawns in a political chess board. When the President Blinken wanted to destroy Russia, he was prepared to promise anything to anyone and hoping that there will be clowns to foolishly go along with his great plans that would be sure to succeed. 

The whole American game of world hegemony is devised by the clowns in Washington to induce clowns to join the circus willingly and happily. It is a game based on the logic of stupidity, for clowns to prove how stupid they can be. The clowns in Washington have been booted out of office and Biden has happily retired as POTUS, without knowing what had happened when he was president. Probably he did not remember he was the President of the USA and now enjoying a blissful retirement in the comfort of his home, without a clue of the war in Ukraine.

Now another bunch of clowns have settled in the White House and Washington. This bunch wanted to start a new game in Ukraine. To them, all the presumptions and promises by President Blinken are history. They did not want to have anything to do with them. If Zelensky has any problem or grouses, he should go to Blinken or Biden.

Trump and his clowns are telling Zelensky again to trust the Americans, believe in the Americans, the Americans are there to save him and his country. Zelensky cannot accept the change. He wants to continue to play the game using the same rules that the Americans promised him. He cannot understand that the Americans did not want to play a losing game started by the previous administration. And they simply wipe their hands clean. The war has nothing to do with them. It's over. 

The Americans started the Ukraine War and now want to end the war. Whether Zelensky likes it or not is not an issue. It is Zelensky's problem for volunteering to be the pawn in Blinken's game. Trump is now cutting all support for Zelensky. No more blank cheques, no more fighting for as long as it takes. The Americans not honouring what they said and promised? Yes. Get real, stupid. You have been had, for your own stupidity. But don't feel bad, don't think that you are stupid, because you are. The consolation is that many more stupid clowns are waiting in the corridor wanting to be pawns of the Americans, and blindly trusting the Americans and believing in the Americans.

There will be more clowns wanting to be Zelensky over and over again. And there will be more silly people wanting to die like the Ukrainians, wanting to lose their countries, wanting to be pawns of the Americans. Stupidity is an incurable disease.
