Asia China's growing influence

Batteries,diesel and jet fuel.
They'll be fine.

The Drones wars… wasn’t that a Star Wars episode?

No, it's a geopolitical move so that USA can assert more direct power over Russia, as well as gain access to rare earth minerals.

Currently, China produces 90% of rare earth minerals and Greenland has a very large supply that's mostly untapped.

Rare earths are used for electrics - Cars, smartphones, TVs and, of course, defense systems.

USA is clearly making a play here to get direct access to rare earth themselves without pandering to China, whilst denying them access to Venezuelan oil.

USA, being China's #1 importer, will be able to produce many of the advanced electronics they currently buy from China, so it's essentially a bit of a triple whammy.

1. Prevent China's access from the world's largest oil reserve = Have to go via USA
2. Reduce USA's dependence on China for electrical goods and products = USA more self-sufficient
3. With the USA, China's #1 customer, no longer reliant on them for their goods(they will just tariff Chinese goods until they're more expensive than locally-produced ones), the Chinese economy will weaken whilst USA's grows.

Now, for all this to happen it'll need to happen within the next 3 years. Is it plausible? I don't know. What Trump's doing however aligns incredibly closely with what he stated in an interview on the Oprah show in 1988. He's clearly had this on his mind for a very long time.

It’s also straight land theft no matter how hard you try to justify it just because it’s daddy USA doing the thieving

Just post the link to back up your claim IF there is one a stop being a equivocator

For what?

Batteries,diesel and jet fuel.

While drones are scary AF and China holds dominance here. It still doesn't change the protracted nature of war, energy density will prevail.

Jet fuel/diesel wins eventually. Long range strikes are still rocket fuel/internal combustion

This is looking to be true. US war hawks refocusing to the western hemisphere so their locally based lickspittles have become very quiet recently:

Zero deflection, lets just be real for a second. This is not a difficult request

Dear oh dear oh dear.
You made a comment and I asked you to back that comment up with a link, but obviously there isn't a link to back up you comment. No surprise there.

These events demonstrate a clear difference between the two superpowers

One’s foreign policy encourages investment, infrastructure, and development.

The other’s contains airstrikes, coups, and theft.

It is clear China is a more responsible adult on the world stage.

who knows if these churches are part of a CIA strategy. I notice that one of the church names refers to Zion.

This will affect our beef farmersm but I thought china didn't believe in tariffs

Australian meat body warns new China beef tariff impact will be 'severe'

Meat Industry Council says it is "extremely disappointed" as China imposes a tariff on Australian beef imports that could cost $1 billion.

www.abc.net.au

Perhaps sell decent beef in Australia at respectable prices. $70-$100kg for decent steak is highway robbery here.

Ok you won't specify so I'll presume it was the most spicy bit about Stalin trying to unify Germany in the 50's

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalin_Note
The Stalin Note, also known as the March Note, was a document delivered to the representatives of the Western Allies (the United Kingdom, France, and the United States) from the Soviet Union in separated Germany including the two countries in West and East on 10 March 1952. Soviet general secretary and premier Joseph Stalin put forth a proposal for a German reunification and neutralisation with no conditions on economic policies and with guarantees for "the rights of man and basic freedoms, including freedom of speech, press, religious persuasion, political conviction, and assembly"[1] and free activity of democratic parties and organizations.

Was that the link you wanted? I mean we've done a huge back and forth here


That would be the same Georgian politician, yes.
You should be more careful about comparing the Soviets to the Nazis, can lead to a somewhat soft approach to fascism which I think you could be dog walked into

You do offer comedy value.
Do you moonlight on the moscow stages as a comedian?

It would be nice to actually get a question out of you rather than;

'Deflection, deflection"
'You won't provide a link'
etc
