The Top Stories Taiwan & Berlin

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Anthony Blinken cannot sleep at night when there is world peace. He is like a drunk in a bar who punches you because you looked in his direction, and he ASSUMED you were going to punch him first – so he does what he wrongly thought you would do. This guy is so dangerous to National Security that it’s not funny.  China has now accused the US of sending “a gravely wrong signal” to those pushing for Taiwan’s independence after Saturday’s election result.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken sent Taiwanese president-elect William Lai a message of congratulations following the election. Blinken’s prayers and those of his fellow Neocons were answered. His message of congratulations for Lai’s victory, who is a staunch independence supporter, emphasized the partnership between Taipei and Washington, which he said was rooted in democratic values.

Blinken said: “We look forward to working with Dr. Lai and Taiwan’s leaders of all parties to advance our shared interests and values,” adding that the US is “committed to maintaining cross-strait peace and stability” and that he looked forward to collaborating which he hoped would “further our longstanding unofficial relationship” and be “consistent with the US One China policy.”

China viewed the message as a violation of Washington’s commitment to maintain only unofficial ties with Taiwan. The conflict is clearly the result of the US Neocons and even Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan, which gave the people the impression that the United States was supporting war with China. Our sources say that this “impression” is what supported the victory of Mr. Lai, who has vowed to protect Taiwan from an increasingly aggressive China. Of course, China has become more aggressive when slapped in the face by the Neocons. As long as everyone agreed to the one-China policy, then there was no pressing urgency to invade Taiwan. With this rising tension, China will be compelled to act, or in their culture, it will be a loss of face. For the life of me, I cannot understand how someone like Pelosi and Blinken have no real understanding of the world they wanted to rule.

We had a Directional Change in Taiwan for January, and the election went according to Socrates’ forecast. But note that we also have a Panic Cycle in February, which also shows up in Shanghai.

In Europe, we have the complete incompetence of European leaders who have set up a crisis that I seriously doubt they understood. Even in the DAX, January was a key target, as is March. If there is going to be war in Europe, the first target will be June.

Never forget, the chozenites have the highest IQs… we’re lucky they work for U,….reeeeee

“….the US is stuck. So, it is good that John Mearsheimer understands parts of it, but he doesn’t understand the heart of the matter. After the US strategically and operationally “planned” VSU’s “counteroffensive”, the question of the competence of the US military establishment arose and was answered–it is incompetent! It will take a generation or two to even teach those who are currently in the plebe years in US service academies to think properly and within the framework of America’s REAL military and industrial capability. This REAL capability has nothing in common with the US halcyon years of WW II and after and it is not coming back. Russia will not allow the US to unleash the war in Europe while thinking that the US can sit this one out again behind the ocean. Doesn’t work like this anymore, especially with the construction tempo of Russia Navy’s subs such as 3M22 Zircon carriers Yasen-class subs and frigates which already have Zircons deployed. These are technologies the US simply doesn’t have and are nowhere near of getting them. China can rely on them, and much more from Russia in case of the US deciding to commit suicide, the US cannot.”

Seems reasonable to me given their history. Now they know the rules. Whether or not they abide by those rules after getting what they want? Prognosis: doubtful.

You can’t legislate thought. You can try and you can fail.

Or at least sort the honest ones from the liars…and being a liar is actually PART of their religion.

Well, incompetence is highly prized by the communist, pardon me, no insult to good communists intended, I meant democrat party. Homosexuality, pedophilia, heavy gender dysmorphia, all manner of sexual perversion are highly prized by the party of Satan as well.

When the eruption occurs I hope sincerely it be focused on large cities and contained there.

Taiwan is the gate between China, Hawaii and the West coast. If we don’t support it, China will snatch it up in a New York minute. Remember all you patriots (and I mean that sincerely) that Hawaii and the West coast are deep blue. If things start to go sideways for those lefties, it is not inconceivable they might take comfort in a little Chinese muscle to help insure DEI, ESG and CRT. Why take away the lid on the cobra’s basket?
