When routes are blocked, China looks for alternatives, ...USA and Japanese look for war

China has already found alternative routes for oil from Iran, delivered by rail across Central Asia, bypassing the Straits of Malacca and even faster. I just wonder why the Straits of Malacca is being used by the USA to blockade navigation when it is a passage between Indonesia and Malaysia and for them to control.

Oil from the Middle East could also be delivered by rail at the China/Pakistan jointly developed Gwadar Port in time to come. This route will enable oil deliveries to Western China, also a much faster journey.

China has already found an alternative to avoid the Panama Canal, using the Port of Chancay in Peru for Chinese ships docking and conducting trade with South American countries like Brazil. Moreover, there are indications that China is also looking at building an alternative canal through Nicaragua. How that is progressing I am not too sure.

China and Russia are now experimenting with the Arctic route that is becoming more navigable due to climate change for trade with Europe, bypassing the Suez Canal. In any case, the Suez Canal can only function if the Houthis allow the Bab Al-Mandab Strait to be navigable. Same with the Straits of Hormuz that Iran can control for oil exiting the Persian Gulf. So, who holds the cards in the oil trade in the Middle East is subjective.

In time to come, all the blockades intended to be set up via the Straits of Malacca, Suez Canal and Panama Canal could just become White Elephants controlled by the Whites. Slowly, the horses have bolted, while the USA still thinks closing the stable doors is going to be effective. Keep dreaming.

Japan is as fake as the USA

 Japan is as fake as what is America. America's claim of freedom, democracy and protectors of human rights are fictional. Only fools and the braindead would believe in freedom, democracy and human rights under the rogue American Empire. Just ask the Central American and Latin American countries about freedom and democracy and human rights. Ask the same questions to the Arabs and Muslim countries and also to the African states. All of them are under the oppression and coercion of the rogue American Empire. All of them has a noose around their necks. The America can trip open the floor below time any time.

The American allies and crony states are also suffering from American coercion and oppression in a matter of degrees. Just watch what the Americans are doing to their allies like Canada, EU and Japan. The Americans are squeezing for money, in the billions. Oops, should also include the rich Arab states. They just have to cough out. And there is no freedom for them to trade with any country they like, to buy or sell anything they like. Cannot use Huawei's 5G. Stick to half baked outdated fake European 5G. The Americans themselves cannot even buy excellent and affordable EVs from China. The America controls everything. Cannot trade with this country or that country, must sanction this country or that country, cannot buy oil, natural gas, tools, parts or whatever from this or that country. One day the Americans would ban all their allies and crony states from buying toilet papers from China citing national security risk.

What freedom, democracy, human rights? My foot! They all suffered in silence under the American terrorists and afraid to complain or oppose. Who blew up the Nord Stream pipeline? Who bombed Qatar? Who committed genocide on the Palestinians in Gaza?

America is as fake as anything you can name it, just like Hollywood, moon landing, protecting the human rights of native Americans, the Red Indians and the Niggers.

What about Japan? The Self Defence Force is anything but about self defence. They have aircraft carriers, attack launching ships, attack submarines all ready for war. But they are governed by a Pacifist Constitution. Really? That Constitution is as good as a piece of toilet paper. Abe had flushed it down the toilet bowl. The Japanese Pacifist Constitution is dead.

Japan is hoarding enough enriched Uranium to build 6,000 nuclear bombs. Why are the IAEA charging into Iran to check on its nuclear programme but not inspecting what the Japanese are hiding openly? Japan's nuclear weapon programme is in full blown, can become a nuclear power tomorrow. Very likely they are in possession of nuclear bombs for years. But the UN and IAEA turn a blind eye, see nothing, hear nothing, say nothing, do nothing, but so gung ho to want to inspect Iran every day.

During Abe's regime, he had amended it with a new provision, that Japan can go to war should its national security be threatened, calling it an existential threat. Just by quoting the words, existential threat, Japan can override the Pacifist Constitution and go to war with anyone. The Japanese woman just used this excuse by calling the reunification of Taiwan an existential threat and wanting to go to war with China. They can so the same by calling Chinese islands as existential threat and go to war as well. Or they can call Chinese aircraft carriers as existential threat for the same thing. They can conduct wars in Asean by calling the Malacca Strait an existential threat. Anything under the sky can be called an existential threat, just like the American terrorists calling any country or anything a threat to their national security. Alibaba, BYD, Baidu are national security threats. Next will be condoms Made In China, or solar panels, chips, car batteries etc.

America and Japan are the two most brutal and cruel nations on earth, the most sneaky and untrustworthy rogue regimes. They are faking everything, everyday and everywhere. They even invented and created fake news to lie and con their Americans and Japanese. The two conspired against the Japan Surrender documents and allowed Japan to retake all the islands outside the 4 main islands, in violation of the Surrender documents. Japan usurped the sovereign rights of the Ryukuans by colonising them, and claiming islands outside the 4 main islands as Japanese islands.

The two fake nations duping the world with their propaganda media and passing themselves off as the two most peaceful and peace loving nations. Only the blind and braindead would keep on believing in their lies and their fakes.

Anglo-Saxon White clique's preoccupation to bring down China dates back to centuries

The Anglo-Saxon White clique's preoccupation to bring down China dates back to centuries. The Opium Wars, the attempts to break up China by the 8 nations pooling resources to do it, knowing that China is too big for any one country to govern, have all failed. Religion, drugging, dividing China up into concessions have all fallen short against Chinese resistance. Short of such resistance, Chinese on the mainland would now be just like the Native American Indians, living in concentration camps in the Gobi Desert
Later they also used ideology, pitting democracy vs communism in an attempt to demonize China to no avail as well. And the Whites are still trying with trade wars, tariffs and sanctions against China. All these attempts have realistically made China even greater by striving for self-reliance but at the same time overwhelming the industrial base of the West and Japan. Such is China's strength and resilience. How many more attempts will the West be making down the road to bring down China is anyone's guess. But such attempts will be more and more difficult as years go by.

Chinese on the mainland are now more patriotic today than ever before, when division of its people between Nationalists and Communists prevailed that weakens the country. Democracy now holds no sway over them, having seen the decadence of the West, especially the USA, under democratic rule. The USA system is an Oligarchy, through and through, no difference from China's system, except one system cares for the masses while the other cares only for the super-rich.

And Japan is perhaps the only non-White Asian country conspiring with the Anglo-Saxon Whites to do China in, for centuries on end, and even resorting to genocide during the Nanjing Massacre, a method used by the Anglo-Saxon Whites all over the world. Now the Philippines, the other non-White country, is trying to do the same to China. China will in time settle that score as well. As they always say, people in glass houses should not throw stones. But the lesson never seems to have been learnt.

AngloSaxon terrorists and their endless wars versus China's factories to improve lives

Just to add 🇨🇳 China also saving the Human Race and Humanity with their low costs manufactured products and technologies that benefited the Whole World.

They are the ONE really trying to save the Earth by their efforts in Green Energy!

Their Solar Panels, their EV Vehicles and their Other Climate Challenges Efforts like the Windmills and Forestations on a large scale.

Even their discoveries of any benefits to Mankind they opened up for Free and also assisted lots of Third World Countries to have their expertise in uplifting their lives having enough good and other sanitation to their peoples.

What's the White Barabians and Savgaes do?

Creating Chaos and Wars and Invasions and robbing the resources and lives of the weaker Countries.

Those vassals and skunks and doggies of their socalled Free DemoCRAZY countries are a lot of DAMNED Hypocrites.

They colluded and ganged up with them to fleece the innocents of the World.

China's any discovery of medical sciences in curing any diseases are been shared to the World and the White Savages Pharmaceutical Companies who fleeced trillions and billions from the World are unhappy as they needed to still have their wealth of their medications to swell to the World.

Any damn discovery of curing any diseases are been bribed and put away into oblivion.

Where in.the World the Damn corrupted leaders in cahoots with these Pharmaceutical and Arms and deadly Military Manufacturing Industries to fleece the World and Humanity instead of saving All.

In South Korea, once a restaurant Owner proudly boasted that their toothpicks can even dissolved by themselves as loved by our ex Minister Toothpicks King and are trying to save the Earth!

Told him yes but your daily bombings rituals everyday by your Military defeated this purpose.

In your Military Exercises with the Americunts to provoke the North!

These are the Scumbags of the Earth that caused chaos and havoc round the world.

Anyway, Karmas at their doorstep by their endless wars and Invasions that lot of immigrants are now in their countries to kill more of them.

M.O.T Sinkeland too!

No eyes see.

Why would Trump call Xi?

 My earlier post started with the position that it was Xi that called Trump. This was corrected by Mao Ning that the call was initiated by Trump. The crisis caused by the Japanese woman has reached a point when Xi had decided enough is enough. This woman and her militarist Japanese gang must be stopped NOW. Xi has decided what he has to do to stop this woman from starting a war. The consequences were grave, and it was appropriate to inform the master of the doggies to prevent any misunderstanding. China does not want a war with the US, but it is necessary to deal with the aggressive Japanese, and very likely it would lead to the settling all the historical blood debt for once. 35 million Chinese cannot die for nothing.

The Americans may have more than 50,000 soldiers in Japan, and another 20,000 in South Korea. To China, this is small change. It used to be enough to threaten China. Today, China could take them all out in the first 30 minutes of an all out war. China has more sophisticated, deadly, powerful and accurate missile forces than anything the Americans have seen. An all out attack on Japan and American forces would not be the same as Iran hitting Israel with a few missiles and then stood down, game over. The effect to be achieved would be to neutralise all offensive forces in Japan and South Korea. This is WAR! It is not a game where one party throws a stone and the other party throws a stone back. It could lead to a nuclear holocaust if not restrained. If the Japanese dare to land a missile in China, then there is nothing to hold back China to send everything it has into Japan! The Japanese islands might even sink.

Xi would want to give notice to Trump to stay out of this war and all American bases and forces in Japan and South Korea would be safe. The Americans cannot afford to lose them all when war started. Why would Trump call Xi first instead? Very likely the unofficial sources like the intelligence services would be in contact and the Chinese side would have told their American counterpart what was coming. Such a serious matter must have gone straight to Trump immediately. 

Trump may be colluding with the Japanese to provoke China, to harass China. But he knows very well not to push the envelope to an open war with China. The American forces in the whole of western Pacific Ocean are inadequate, too little to defend against the full might of 2 million PLA. The Russians and the North Koreans are also part of the equation. The American bases are equipped with mainly offensive weapons from a time when America was the dominant unchallenged power, can hit anyone they like, and no one can hit back. Thus, the bases have very little or limited defensive systems to protect themselves. They are naked and could easily be taken out by the sophisticated Chinese missiles and drones in the first wave of a war with China. China cannot afford to be generous and kind as the counterstrike if not neutered would be equally damaging to China. The PLA's mission would be to kill all in one go.

When Trump got the message, he panicked, he knew things are going out of hand. And the Japanese woman is waving the America Japan Treaty as a badge of safety and protection. They are going to drag the Americans into what they had started, a war with China. The Americans would be put to test whether they would die defending Japan against a nuclear superpower. No matter how stupid or silly Trump and his warhawks are, they know that this is a war they cannot win, and once any missile landed on Chinese soil, Chinese missiles would land on American soil. China can hit back just as hard on American homeland. This is something not to trifle with.

Trump had to defuse the tension and nip the flame before it was too late. So he hurriedly called Xi to stabilise the situation. Trump did not have to if the Americans really want a war with China now. He could let the Japanese woman fan the flame of war and WW3 would be with us in no time. Some good sense visited the White House to calm the tension for now. 

But this is not the end. The warmongering Americans would still want to bring down China, to stop China's growth. They would be huddling in the East Wing for a pow wow session to decide the next move. To fight or to take flight. The world would have a short reprieve and wait to see what the warmongering terrorists in Washington are up to. Would the hawks win the day and say it is now or never to take down China? 

Caveat, it is the Americans that is calling the shot, calling for war, NOT China! Stop demonising China, that China also pushing for war with the Americans. China is growing stronger and richer by the day without the need for war. In fact, China would want peace to continue its growth and become the strongest and richest economic power given peace and time. The loser, the Americans are hoping to change their fortune by going to war.
