Chinese aircraft carriers no match to British bathtubs, oops, aircraft carriers

 The Eurasia Times made a comical report from a UK Media that China's Liaoning and Shangdong aircraft carriers are no match for British antique aircraft carriers HMS Prince of Wales and Queen Elizabeth in a confrontation. The idea of aircraft carriers fighting aircraft carriers quickly exposed the amateurish background of the writer. There is no need to fight aircraft carriers with aircraft carriers. This is childish, naive, ignorance.

The usual hype is that the British bathtubs called carriers, after they have patched up the holes in the hulls, are being claimed to be very advanced, supported by cutting edge destroyers and frigates and really invincible against unsophisticated Chinese carriers. It even claimed that the last time such a formidable force led by HMS Prince of Wales to the South China Sea in a show of force to intimidate China was in 2021. The Chinese must be laughing themselves silly at the sight of the bathtubs with band aids on them. Perhaps the Brits were saying it for the Indians to hear and want to sell their bathtubs to the Indians.

And no one would forget that the last time the Prince of Wales was deployed in the South China Sea, again as invincible warship, was in WW2 when it was unceremoniously sunk by the lowly regarded Japanese Navy. And a repeat of this pathetic scenario is awaiting the HMS Prince of Wales again in the South China Sea. This time it would be sunk by the PLA, with all its escorting warships. A

To do this, it would be a piece of cake for the PLA, Chinese soldiers would sit in the comfort of their bunkers and just press some buttons. There is no need to send a single ship to face the Brit bathtubs. The DF21s would find their way to the South China Sea and sink every British bathtub without them knowing what hit them. China has many other means from the air or under the sea or the latest 055 destroyers to do the job neatly. This is the pathetic and sorry state of affair of ancient British military warfare and strategists. So ignorant of modern warfare and military tactics and military technology.  Sssshhh, this anti aircraft carrier technology has been transferred to Iran/Houthis and they are now taking down the American aircraft carriers in the Red Sea.

The Chinese aircraft carriers would be in the English Channel or the Atlantic Ocean overlooking the British Isles after the sinking of the Prince of Wales and Queen Elizabeth II, to take back all the loots in the British Museum that the British pirates stole from China in the 19th Century.

Britain and the Royal Navy are nothing more than outdated Mickey Mouse hyping up as modern naval forces, still thinking of fighting a naval war like in WW2 with antique bathtubs.

China supports Yemen - The gloves are off

 21 MQ9 Reaper drones, each costing $300m, have been shot down by the Houthis. The Americans are furious. Their highly hyped the best in the world, cannot be taken down Reaper drones are coming down like rainfall, shot down by Houthis, a rag tagged rebel forces operating in the mountains and deserts of Yemen. Another American superior weapon myth hits the dust. Oh, 2 F16s, the game changer in the Ukraine War, have been shot down as well.

The Americans are accusing China of supporting the Houthis with anti aircraft satellite technology to bring down the Reaper drones. So what? China does not just respond, but instead offers to buy everything the Yemen can sell to China, zero tariff. Bring everything over to China, China will take everything and pay for it. This is an indirect way of funding the Houthis, giving them all the money they need to fight the Americans. Why not?

The Americans thought they can bully the world, bully China. They will hike tariffs to the stratosphere, and no one must retaliate, or they will hike more. Again, so what? America can hike tariffs so can China. The Americans can continue to sell weapons to Taiwan, send military personnel to Taiwan, deployed medium range missiles to the Philippines to target China.  Build military bases around China. And they expect China not to do anything, not to protect itself? China is strong enough and ready to return tit for tat. No more bending its head and walk away when hit. The Americans may want to try bombing another Chinese embassy. Be sure this time an American embassy would be bombed. Top in the list would be the AIT building in Taiwan, a perfect and convenient target.

Xi has made it very clear. China is ready for an all out war with the Americans. China will fight the American tariffs to the end, totally decoupled from the American economy. China will retaliate in every way possible to what the American terrorists are doing. The Americans want to supply weapons and funds and incite their cronies to provoke and create trouble for China, to plan to attack China. China will do likewise.

China's support for the Middle Eastern countries will increase and will come out in the open. China is not hiding anymore, not holding back anymore. This is war. Iran, Yemen, Sudan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iraq etc etc will be getting more military weapons and aids from China.

In Europe, in the Ukraine War, China's support will also be up. China will support Russia 100%, China will whack the European Mickey Mouse one by one, will hit NATO where it hurts. China is standing up to the American terrorists and European savages that want wars, want to destroy China. Bring them on. China will take them squarely.

This is the new phase of Chinese defensive position against the evil American Empire and the savage NATO expansionism. NATO wants to expand to Asia? Just try. Imperial Japan should come out in the open to form an Asian NATO, to give China and Russia a good reason to whack the daylight out of Japan. Both China and Russia have been waiting for too long for an excuse to flatten Japan for good.

Dictator Trump and his idiotic tariff formula

 That is why Professor Scott Lucas, UCD Clinton Institute, Dublin, called Trump an 'economics moron' regarding his understanding of the tariffs he is raising. Trump only knows the beautiful word 'tariffs' without having an inkling of how it works. Of course, with six bankruptcies to his name, would anyone be surprised?

Scott Lucas revealed how Trump is manipulating the stock market to benefit his cronies and probably doing what they wanted him to do. But the one big hurdle he did not foresee was China not playing the game by having Xi called him to negotiate, which will have put the stock market on steroids. Moreover, there are two camps in Trumps administration with diametrically opposite opinions regarding the flip flops made by Trump. But those that opposed Trump are wary of the backlash if they go against him.

Bear in mind that Trump has already been going after all those who worked against him or tried to do him in during Biden's watch, especially the FBI that ransacked his Mar Largo residence regarding classified documents, and those who tried to prosecute him over the January 6th 'uprising'. It was nothing more than revenge by the convicted felon. Whatever freedom of anything that USA citizens are enjoying now is being trampled upon by Trump, basically throwing the USA Constitution regarding their rights, all into the dustbin.

Now, Trump is trying to get rid of Jerone Powell as well because he refused to lower interest rates to make Trump look good and able to boast about interest rates going down despite the effect of his tariffs. This moron will manufacture the narratives to fit his crime by hook or by crook. How this will play out is going to be fun to watch. If Trump can just ignore the judge's pronouncements over the deportation issue, he will ignore the independence of the Federal Reserve and find ways to get rid of Powell.

I think the time will come when the USA citizens will be in a position to call Trump a 'dictator'. Trump may call other leaders 'a dictator', but he is moving himself into position as one for sure.

Kill switches in Boeing aircraft will kill Boeing...will be cancelled from all Chinese airlines

 Remember China was the first country that grounded the Boeing 737 after two successive crashes end 2018 and early 2019 and other countries subsequently followed. China moving away from Boeing planes may also elicit a following from other countries.

China knows what goes on inside those Boeing planes that could be unsafe to say the least, in the face of rumors about 'kill switches' in its fighter jets and the mystery of Malaysia flight MH370. Of course, denials are expected, but as they say, there is no smoke without fire.

Jiang Zemin bought a Boeing plane for his presidential use years ago, only to discover that it was filled with bugs. That plane has never been used again. The USA lost the chance to listen in to top Chinese secrets for sure.

Xi will call Trump? Severe pain in 3 to 6 months, recession, inflation, bankruptcies, unemployment and riots in the streets of USA

 Trump is still touting that Xi will come to him to negotiate, with even his White House spokesperson keeping up repeating the mantra that Xi has to call Trump to negotiate soon.

Now, let us sit back a little and think about Trump claiming that China has made many indications that it is going to negotiate. If Chinese spokespeople on the media commenting on those tariffs and telling the USA to grow up and stop its bullying in order to get an adult response from Xi and trying to interpret that as an indication that China is sending out feelers and looking to negotiate, he is delusional.

Further, when asked by the media whether Xi in fact called him, he would not answer that and clamped up. What does that tell us? He was just bragging clear and simple. To a prolific braggart, that call from Xi would be broadcast to the moon if it did happen. And his cronies would be reaping in all the dough with the stock market shooting up. Trump already sent a discreet message to them that this is a good time to buy. To whom was the call being directed to?

The other indication that he is trying to pull a fast one was the move indicating that he is trying to use the Tik Tok fiasco as a bargaining chip, using it as another excuse to extend the deadline for banning Tik Tok. That must be his 'Art of the Deal'. China should stand firm and let Tik Tok be banned. After all, USA citizens have already been well informed by Tik Tok on many issues, and by Rednote in comparing living conditions in USA and China. Suffice to say, what Rednote did in a couple of weeks managed to destroy all the years of propaganda generation and demonization by the USA against China. And last but not least I should also mention DeepSeek putting USA tech giants to shame with its AI app.
