Extending my coverage of the Pelosi-Taiwan episode just this one more time, hopefully, more or less what I said in my previous post is now being enacted. China has shut down (blockaded) all external access to Taiwan island now, having completely surrounded it on all sides with Chinese military forces engaged in live-fire exercises which...

Reunification Is The Name Of The Game
...and it will now become a matter of some urgency, as China-US relations sour beyond recuperation. Wiser heads prevailed, and despite the sneering and the self-aggrandised trumpeting of the likes of Andrei Martyanov - who becomes ever more obnoxious in my view as time goes by - the game is not yet over. In fact... Continue Reading →
Important News on the Liberation of Ukraine
I have, since the commencement of the Russian Special Operation in Ukraine and even further back to the 2014 US organised coup there which led to the declaration of independence by the two Donbass republics of DPR and LPR, maintained that the only peaceful resolution of the disgraceful US intrusion into Eastern Europe affairs and...

“Talk to Blinky? Maybe, When I Have the Time,” says Lavrov
There are very few nations now, who jump when the US calls. Russia is not one of them. I think it's called a 'loss of prestige'. Anyway, when the US Secretary of State's office called to request a phone call with Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, on Thursday July 28, 2022, 'the minister has a... Continue Reading →

China, having given warnings to the US over recent weeks on the (said to be) planned visit of Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan, is now in a state of 'yanzhen yidai' - 'fully prepared for any eventuality' - the latest warning now being... Action is the most powerful languageWu Qian, spokesperson for the Defense Ministry -... Continue Reading →
A Little of Everything That is Important Right Now (in my view)
I am going to try to do something which in all likelihood is beyond my capacity to adequately complete. And yet it may be the most critical issue facing mankind. An issue that separates thinkers into opposing camps and produces the kind of conflict, existential conflict, now ongoing in Ukraine and soon to spread more... Continue Reading →
Stop Getting Pregnant All You American Women. Please! It’s A Big Problem For Us.
US Vice President Kamala Harris has just worked out the answer to all the world's problems. And as a result of her brainwave, has called for American women to stop getting pregnant. She is a genius! Why didn't we think of this before? It is a certain sure way - a bit slow but, in... Continue Reading →
