This is another reason why China won’t start a war. They don’t want to be cut off from Middle Eastern oil.

If your economy collapses, the last thing you need is a war and international embargo. China needs seabound imports. It is dependent on that. The US can easily shut down the seabound trade routes. China is in no position to fight a war against the US. That’s why the US keeps pushing this...

You are actually confirming my point. It is the US who wants China to attack now, when the US still has the upper hand. It is not in the interest of China to start a war now. China wins by playing the long game.

You cite something about Germany and free speech in the same post? C’mon, you can do better than that.

China won’t invade Taiwan. China’s strength is its economic game backed up by improved scientific education and a globalized economy. If there is a war and a break-up of the globalized economy, China loses. China is dependent on a functional global economy, because they import a lot of basic...

Of course he is ready, because it is not him who will pay that price. So easy to send other people to die for your grandstanding.

I condemn the hospital attack, along with all the indiscriminate bombing of civilians. Israel is acting in a similar way to Russia. The way they lie in order to deny their war crimes is also very Russian-like.

That’s great news! A four times increase in production will allow for new countries to buy CAESARS, while at the same time Ukraine will be able to receive additional units. Maybe 4 units will go to other countries, and 4 to Ukraine each month. This is they kind of production ramping that is...

The “bears” just got two airports blown off with 9 helicopters on them, with a shiny new toy from the US, which is the oldest and weakest version of ATACMS. That’s just with a 75 km range weapon. In a few weeks, the Ukrainians will have the new 150 km range ammunition for HIMARS that will allow...

The Chinese are not stupid to do anything now, as this would be perceived as an anti-Israel move, which would have long term negative consequences for China. If they act as an enemy of Israel, it will strengthen the defence cooperation between Israel and Taiwan, and it may even pressure the US...

I’m sure some people in Bali would be happy. When I was there in vacation a few years ago, I asked a taxi driver if the tsunami has reached Bali, and he started to rejoice while laughing that he loved the tsunami because it killed so many people in Aceh, where there are only muslims. He seemed...

If they tried to set it up in Germany, there would have been another holocaust by now. Europeans would have turned nazis rather than accepting something like that.

Yes, that is pure hypocrisy. The bombing and killing of civilians is wrong, and what Israel is doing now has no excuse. It is one thing to have an anti terror campaign and to target a terrorist organization, and another to carpet bomb a city filled with children. The hypocrisy of many in the...

I don’t think China taking Taiwan is actually a legitimate question, but it is an excuse used for bolstering support against China, while in China it is used as a way to bolster nationalism. China attacking Taiwan would be so stupid and counterproductive for China, so it is hard to believe that...

It’s very important to keep up and even boost the supply of artillery shells and systems. This is where Ukraine could win the long term war, as Russia is slowly burning through its artillery units and ammunition reserve. This is a war of attrition, and Ukraine has longer range and more precise...

Your ideology is sick. It resembles that of ISIS. You just want to see total war and annihilation. You are no better than those Westerners who call for the wiping out of Gaza. That’s why Salahadin is remembered as a great leader and is respected worldwide. If he did what you wanted him to do...

You see, you actually agree with me that they don’t need another pretext, as there are already plenty of atrocities done by Israel to build a strong propaganda machine on. Eradicating Gaza or not, it changes nothing in the scenario you present. It’s all about having enough power to overcome the...

Your theory about the need of a pretext to wipe out Israel when sometime in the future after the US is greatly diminished, a Islamic world power will be able to do it, is really silly. Do you actually think fanatic islamists don’t have a pretext already and need some more? We’ve seen what ISIS...

The PKK is designated as a terrorist organization by the United States and the European Union. They are not considered heroes, they are considered terrorists.

Could not have said it better myself. I would have liked your post more than once if it was possible. So true.
