Manufacturing consent, because this was made into a big deal China now has carte Blanche to carry out any military activities in the region. China’s “special military exercise” is carried out over Taiwanese air space (not AIDZ, actual air space) and within 12 nm of its coast. You could not...
You make the choices most logical to you. Shooting down her jet was not a option on the table, China wants Taiwan, not a war with America. Shooting her down would unite both republicans and democrats, it would be a strategic blunder to end the constant rivalry between the parties. What is on the...
I think the visit gave the Chinese government the green light from its citizens to invade Taiwan. Before the visit a lot of Chinese were on the fence about a military reunification, but now those voices have seem to be drowned out by the ones calling for blood. If war does happen, it will enjoy...
This is the next chapter, times have changed but it seems like you’re still stuck in the past. Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine it’s a new era. We are approaching the climax to the post WW2 era. China and Russia are trying to oust the USD as reserve currency, America is on a very short time...
What America failed to calculate was the Chinese civilian reaction to this incident. Peaceful reunification was still very popular amongst the people before this incident, but now the CPC has a blank check. The mainlanders are basically in-lined with their government now while the blue and green...
Those exercises are a response to the visit. Basically a new step on the ladder of escalation. If they do become a blockade the new step on the ladder of escalation would be the US to challenge the blockade.
I think you’re having a premature ejacu lation yourself. It’s been way too common an occurrence that American actions come back to bite them, I wouldn’t except this tradition to change. It’s a long game, if you’re celebrating during opening act you’re more of a cheerleader than a “professional”.
I would expect a blockade of Taiwan, nothing gets on the island without permission from the PLA now. Those positions announced for the “exercise” perfectly surrounds the island, what if they just chose to extend those exercises as “special military operations”
During the blockade fan the...
Why does Endia even need a carrier against Pakistan when it has airfields across the shared boarder. It’s nothing more than a waste of money to flex some superficial pride.
They are running face first into a porcupine, not sure what outcome they are expecting. Do they really want to push for a WW3, does no one working for the Americans know how to fix their broken kleptocratic economic system without trying to use conflict to reset it?
It set up the colonial system that we have today where western nations still exploit non western nations through their fraudulent economic system and military domination. This system has to be toppled to restored balance to the world once again.
Ultimately it’s the government that sanctioned these atrocities, these schools would not have existed if the government didn’t permit them. Having a religious figure across the ocean that has no political power over Canada does very little to make up for the genocide that was committed. It’s the...
