Lying is a prerequisite to be enlisted by Trump

When Scott Bessent faced grilling by Democrat Senators, he avoided answering questions and goes about spinning grandmother's tales which riled many senators, knowing they can never get a straight answer from him. Either they listen to his lies, which has gone out of fashion or listen to his gibberish. Bessent is at the end of his wits, with no more rope to hold on.

This seems to be the standard practice of all of Trump's appointees. Pete Hegseth testifying before Democrat Senators was directly slammed by one Senator, who asked him whether he was being paid just sitting there to lie. When the White House spokesperson faces hostile questioning, she just walked off from the briefing.

Trump's administration is now no more than a circus made up of just clowns masquerading as sensible and capable politicians. The issue is that they are being forced to keep lying to cover a previous lie. What is happening in the Administration's response to problems is incapable now of being supported by truth. It would be safe to say that they cannot handle the truth and have to lie instead.

That brings me to the escalating war in the Middle East. Trump wants to force Iran to the negotiating table and is using Israel to attack Iran to give him the upper hand in any negotiation. Now, Iran is cancelling all nuclear deal negotiations going forward. Now, Trump the double headed snake, is saying that the conflict between Israel and Iran should end. I think this is another big foul up by Trump with Iran unleashing its fury on Israel. Each side is talking about raising hell on the other.

Those F35s that were used to attack Iran possibly did not take off from Israel, but from somewhere else in either a USA base in Iraq or some refueling base which the Iranians are now targeting. This is betting that Iran will not attack such a base knowing it is a USA base.

Pete Hegseth - War Is Peace. The stupid and naive deserved to be decimated

 War is Peace. This is America talking. And peace just landed in Iran. Not forgetting peace is still in full blown in Ukraine, in Africa and brewing in the South China Sea. And many silly Asian and Asean countries believe in this America War is Peace. They love this American version of peace in war. They trust the Americans. Many are still stupidly trusting the Americans and naively talking to the Americans, negotiating for peace with the Americans. The Iranians just found out what is the meaning of negotiation with the Americans, when the Americans were preparing to invade their countries pretending to be negotiating for peace. 

The naive and stupid were not born yesterday. They knew what happened to the Minsk Agreement and the several agreements for temporary ceasefire and knew why the Americans need ceasefire to buy time to restock their weapons for war. Only the stubbornly naive and stupid would not learn. This peace talk strategy has been perfected for centuries in North America in so called peace talks with the Red Indians. After every peace talk or better during a peace talk, the American cavalry would be massacring the Red Indians while their gullible leaders were engaged in peace talks with the white men, believing and trusting the white men.

This is very familiar to many countries like China and Russia. They always came out on the losing side, having dinner with Trump while Meng Wanzhou was being arrested. And they continued to trust the Americans and continue to have fine dining, and peace talks and negotiations with the Americans and still want to invite Trump the scoundrel to be feasted in Beijing. They really believe in Trump saying Xi is a good friend.

The naive and stupid would always end up being chopped to pieces and fed to the dogs. Unfortunately, the naive and stupid and would never learn, even been cheated and lied to over and over again. Can't blame them as they are really naive and stupid.

Is the world watching, listening to what has just happened in Iran? Never mind if the Iranians are naive and stupid. They will have to pay the price for it. But would the rest of the world learn from it and stop being naive and stupid? 

By the way, there are plenty of naive and stupid in Asean countries. And some are celebrating the successful attack by Israel and the USA and wish that they could be part of the invading force, on the winning side. Just wait and see which Asean country would be the first to send their boys and girls and equipment to fight on the side of the American and Israeli terrorists. And they will do it voluntarily, in their national interests, not being coerced by the Americans, not because you are with us or against us.

And they will continue to buy more 'superior and advanced' American weapons, with kill switches, so that they cannot use against the Americans and their allies. Naive and stupid? Nay. They look at the mirror and say how clever they are. Incidentally, after the French lost at least 3 Rafales, the Americans have lost 3 F18s and now their self-claimed world best F35s, three have just been shot down. But these would not change the mind of the naive and stupid. They would empty their banks to buy these expensive toys from the Americans and the West. Because they believe and trust the Americans and the West that they are the best money can buy.

The world should never underestimate the stupidity of the naive and stupid. The Americans are celebrating the naive and stupid as they are the biggest beneficiary, pretending to be talking and negotiating with the gullible and never able to learn naive and stupid.

America, the world's number one terrorist state under threat...from students, immigrants. tourists?

 The world's number one terrorist state, the USA, has been spreading threats and fears all over the world, imaginary threats, fabricated threats as an excuse to justify control and wars and dominance, when the real threat to world peace, security and stability is from the American terrorists.

This narrative is losing its shine, except to the die hard pro American Anglophiles that just want to believe in white gods and white gods are good and peace loving creatures, even when they are at wars all over the world, all the time, committing war crimes, crimes against humanity, massacres, genocides, you name it, they have done it.  Oops, war is peace, according to Pete Hegseth.

No, the world is not going to be lied to, to be led by the nose by the American terrorists. The people of the world are not stupid and can see and hear and know what is going on. So, what is next?

Now the Americans are bringing threats and fears home. This is not new. After they invaded and colonised the world, they continue to spread the lie that the poor Chinese that they invaded, colonised and impoverished, are going to swim across the Pacific Ocean to invade and run over American mainland.

And to make the threat real, the Americans are banning students, immigrants, foreigners, tourists etc from entering America. To the fascist rogues in Washington, the world is against America, the people of the world are terrorists wanting to come to America to attack America. Can you believe that?

And the whole world is America's enemy. So, America must build a golden dome to protect America from being attacked from the sky above. And it is going to cost the poor Americans living on paycheck by paycheck, living on the streets without a home at least a few hundred billion dollars to be safe. 

The truth, the only country that is threatening the world with wars, with terrorist acts, with missiles coming from the sky, is the evil American Empire. Gangster Hegseth just came to SE Asia and told the natives there that American forces are in Asia and SE Asia, to stay, without sugar coating. The American terrorists just invited themselves into Asia and SE Asia without invitation and did not need to ask the natives of the region whether they want them here. This is the way of the American terrorists, to want to rule the world, to dominate the world, using the lies that they are here to protect the natives of Asia and SE Asia. Hopefully, the natives of Asia and SE Asia would not end up like the American natives, the Red Indians, and lose their lands to the American terrorists.

No one is threatening the evil American Empire! It is the evil American Empire that is threatening the whole world. All the terrorists and terrorist organisations are created, funded, trained and armed by the evil American Empire to terrorise and destabilise the world, so that the evil American Empire can come in and say we are here, uninvited, to protect you, for your security and safety...to protect you from the evil American Empire.

PS. The Washington rogues are turning against the American citizens with their weapons of war and with their uniform terrorists called National Guards, Marines and Police. Yes, invade California, arrest the Governor, to protect the Californians. Wow, wow, the Washington gangsters and terrorists are going to save California...from who?

Netanyahu and Trump just invaded Iran and telling the Iranians they attacked to save the Iranians from their leaders. And Netanyahu is calling countries of the world to join him in attacking Iran so as to protect them from Iran. Now, how many Asean countries are eagerly preparing to join the Americans and the Israelis to attack Iran? Remember, these Asean countries trust the Americans more than China because China is aggressively fighting a war against poverty and economic backwardness all over the world. The Americans are fighting for peace by starting more wars.

Scott Bessent is truly delusional... talking rubbish

Scott Bessent is truly delusional talking rubbish with his warp way of thinking. Why can't China do what it is doing to become prosperous? China does not steal or sanctioned others from doing what they are doing to be prosperous, unlike the USA. The USA prevented Japan and Germany from becoming too prosperous to overtake it.

Is it wrong to become prosperous through hard and honest work and producing better and cheaper stuff for export? If USA and other Western countries cannot compete against China, that is not China's problem. What are big businesses doing if not to become prosperous through further expansion? Will the USA tell those companies not to sell too much of their production to become prosperous. Are only USA companies allowed to do that. Is that what the USA mean by Rules Based Order?

On the other hand, can China also tell the USA to stop printing toilet papers and thus printing itself into prosperity by exporting its inflation to other countries. Can China complain about the USA weaponizing the US$ to make other countries poor and hapless? What is sauce for the goose must also be sauce for the gander. There cannot be rules for one party and not using the same rules for the other to follow.

The USA now wants all manufacturing to reshore to the USA. So, the USA is trying to become the only country to have prosperity while denying others from becoming prosperous. That is hypocrisy stinking to high heaven.

India's Boeing crash - would the investigators tell the truth?

The investigation will be carried out to protect the image of Boeing, nothing more. The kill switch theory seems unlikely, not for a passenger jet and for Boeings image, not that it is not possible. The cargo manifests may shed some light. Was the plane overloaded is another theory, but most unlikely unless there is corruption involved.

The plane took off, rose to 625 feet, lost power to rise further and crashed into a hostel. There was one survivor who jumped out as he was sitting near an emergency exit. He could provide useful information.

These was no indication of a bird strike either, with no fire or smoke emitting from the engine that was evident with the Jeju crash. That the landing gears were still visible probably indicates a massive electrical power failure. We just have to wait for the result to be culled from the black boxes.

This is a very sad accident. Sympathies to the families of those who lost their lives.

By the way, Singapore Airlines has a 25% investment in Air India, with Tata Group holding a 75% stake. How this will play out for SIA is still not clear. Air India had been suffering losses over the decades, and this crash is undoubtedly going to add to its financial trouble.
