India Pakistan War - India claimed victory

 India is claiming victory over Pakistan in this 4 day war. But it seems that only the Indians are celebrating. No other country is celebrating with the Indians. And the Indians are angry, especially with the French and the Americans, their closest allies. One sold them the world's best fighter aircraft. One goaded the Indians into this war with promises of help and support. India is also very angry with the western countries and media. Why?

The French have all the interest to want to announce that the Rafales shot down the Chinese aircraft. But they did not. They acknowledged that the J10 Cs knocked down the Rafales, a self admission, an embarrassment. There is no good reason for the French to admit such disappointing news if the Rafales were not shot down, or better, the Rafales shot down the J10 C or JF17. There is no reason for the French to want to lie to put down their customer, India. And very likely the French have their own monitoring system to track the Rafales' wellbeing.

And the Americans also had to claim that the Rafales were shot down. How could the Americans say this? Aren't they the ally of the Indians, and very good at fabricating fake news to show their good side or the good side of their ally, India. The least the Indians would accept was for the Americans not to tell the truth. Also, the Americans did not report of any Pakistani aircraft being shot down by the Indians. How could the Americans be so careless and callous? Why didn't the Americans say a few good words for the Indians or lie a bit to tell the world the Indians won?

Likewise, the western media were all anti China and pro India. Why are they also reporting, some blaring, that the Pakistanis shot down 6 of the Indian fighter jets? It used to be their job to rubbish and belittle China and China's allies, Pakistan. Why are they not lying but telling the truth to anger the Indians? Or why didn't they report the Indian version of the truth, that India won, that India shot down the Pakistani aircraft and all Indian aircraft were safe?

And the Paris Air Show...would it be the golden opportunity for the French to invite India to showcase the victorious battle against Pakistan using the Rafales? The Dassault company would be displaying huge banners of the kills by Rafales if indeed the Rafales did shoot down Pakistani aircraft. The French cannot be so biased and anti Indians not to tell the glorious truth in praise of India and the French aircraft company. The Paris Air Show would all be about the India Pakistan War and the great Rafale fighters. No? Why not?

US Embassy shame Singapore video

US embassy made shame video of Singapore’s cluttered HDB corridors and compared them with South China Sea row

A US embassy posted a video likening China’s maritime claims in the South China Sea to a resident in Singapore cluttering the corridor of a public housing block.

The 90-second clip, posted by US Chargé d’Affaires Casey Mace and reshared across the official embassy channels on Monday, opens with a scene familiar to many Singaporeans – the façade of a Housing and Development Board (HDB) flat – and a narrator intoning: “Our homes are our sanctuaries. And when we live together, it’s important to respect each other’s space and our common space.”

Viewers are then asked to “imagine coming home one day and to find this”, as the screen flashes images of shared areas blocked by household clutter, alongside headlines about disputes over corridor hoarding. “A neighbour has decided that the space in front of your door is theirs,” the narrator says, before asking: “Does this remind you of anything else?”

The video then pivots to the South China Sea conflict, showing news headlines about Philippine and Vietnamese officials accusing China of aggression, military build-ups and harassment of fishermen. “This happens right outside Singapore’s doorstep, too,” the narrator says.

The rest of the video draws out the HDB analogy, likening China’s territorial claims and assertive actions in the disputed waterway to HDB residents refusing to remove their things from public areas even after town councils have ruled against them. The video ends with the narrator saying: “It’s important to remember: we all have to use this corridor. We have to live together peacefully.”

Kevin Walmsley - How measuring GDP can distort reality

Kevin Walmsley, on his site 'Inside China Business' warns us 'Are we measuring China's GDP wrong?' It is a very insightful analysis of how measuring GDP had not taken into account the reality of important factors that is making it unreliable.
'Inside China Business' should be a must watch site for those wanting the real analysis of economic developments around the world. Kevin based his facts on real research culled from reliable sources, not just propaganda pieces trotted out as clickbait to lure the unwary.

GDP is a measure of all the goods and services that a country produces but does not differentiate between the relative value of those goods and services inside USA and China. For example, a visitor, staying at a 5-star hotel in USA pays about four times what he pays staying in a similar class hotel in China. A car in USA costs several times what a Chinese pays for a similar or even better car in China. Calling an ambulance in USA costs upwards of US$500 to US$3,500, while it is US$7.70 for the first 3 kilometers, with an additional US$1.00 (7.70 Yuan) for each additional kilometer distance in China, where hospitals are usually within easy reach. The cost of visiting a doctor is also dirt cheap, fast and convenient compared to the USA.

A USA citizen earning US$100,000 a year has difficulty making ends meet, while a Chinese earning a quarter or less of that lives a very comfortable life in China, with everything cheaper by the dozen - utilities, groceries, transport, healthcare and housing.

Therefore, looking at the inflated costs of all the goods and services adding up to arrive at the USA GDP, many things are contributing to the ballooning GDP reported by the USA. Figure that out using a little bit of imagination.

Would the Arabs and Muslims fight for their freedom from their white colonial masters?

Frankly, the self interests, especially the Monarchs, are praying and hoping that Russia, China or North Korea and also Iran in the near or coming future would take down the World's Mafia Chief and Gangsters.
They would NOT want their kingdoms to be destroyed like Urukiane as they are too weak to now resist the White Gangs.

Also, for the African Continent to also play their uprising against the White Colonists and Barbarians.

They are just hopefully bidding their time.

Once they are sure that the Americunts are DOWN then they shall also join in NOT to supply any of their oil to them and let them die.

If the Americunts were to go berserk with their insurmountable problems and default on their debts, they shall want to fight a war with China and that's the time the Arabs would be reaching out for the bottles as okay lah liberations are here.

Just one drink or bottle, yam seng.

J10 C will rule the sky for the next 20 years. No more angmoh tua kee

 

7 minute clip on the J10 battle with Rafale

The battle proven J10 C may not be the best aircraft in the Chinese arsenal. But given the aircraft available today around the world, no aircraft can think of surviving a fight with the J10 C. 

The Rafales are the best in Europe, ranked only behind the American F22. This ranking is fishy as the Americans have decided not to produce the F22 any more. Can you believe it, the Americans voluntarily surrender the top spot to the French? The F35 is a joke, good enough only because of American bragging, and actually ranked a few notches below the Rafales.

So, if the J10 C can beat the world's de facto best aircraft, the Rafales, there is no more better aircraft in the western world that would stand a chance in real combat against the J10 C. Unless users or military top brass still choose to believe the western biased reports and analyses and trust western fiction than facts.

None of the American or European companies has a new aircraft on the drawing board or being tested today. And by the look of things, such an aircraft would only be in production at least 10 years in the future. It can safely be concluded that the J10 C would rule the sky for now and in the immediate future if the enemy countries are American, European or countries buying and using American and European aircraft.

The J10 C is the best aircraft in terms of pricing and effectiveness and battle proven. There is no need to buy anything better, and there is nothing better from the Americans and the Europeans for now and the next 10 or 20 years. How many countries would still want to buy the French sales talks and pay more than $150m or like India, paying $240 million for the lies? India is hurting badly from this very expensive lie and looking like a sucker to the whole world. Any more suckers in the queue? Any air marshals dare to recommend the Rafales and to be sacked, like the two in India?

There is no need to buy a Ferrari when your opponents are driving Japanese, Korean, European or American cars, unless it is just for show, with too much money to spend.  The J10 C would be more than adequate to do the job for a fraction of the money spent, very kind on the budget and will last for 10 to 20 years at least.

By the time the Americans or Europeans start to roll out something new, 6th gen aircraft, it would be a couple of decades from now. There will be better and more expensive aircraft than the J10 C available.
