Meanwhile Australia continues to deepen engagement with india.
Biden should now think over how to prevent breaking up of United States.Well done China, you have scarred the US and got them to talk to you. Biden, if he had understood the Chinese threats well could have cancelled the talks and told them to reduce to zero their threats to Taiwan. No, he did not do it, my inference is that mighty US got scarred.
As good as that sounds and would be, it's never gonna happen.There is already talks of Texit, Texas breaking away from United States.
Good for Conservatives and Religious Right crowd, I would say. Handful of Liberal Leftists are grabbing the Conservatives by collar.As good as that sounds and would be, it's never gonna happen.
Civil War, probably. Secession, unlikely.Good for Conservatives and Religious Right crowd, I would say. Handful of Liberal Leftists are grabbing the Conservatives by collar.
In coming years there will be Civil War in the country.

It can't happen, not even close. States are run by a few big cities. In both Texas and Colorado the only places where it has even been discussed are small rural counties. They don't have the authority to do it but can hold local referendums (referenda.) These votes mean nothing. For a state to split it has to be approved by a statewide referendum, then by the state legislature, and then the governor. It will never even be taken up seriously. I know less about California, but nope, not there either.
Colorado is run by Denver, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, and Pueblo and that's it...mostly Denver. Texas is run by Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, and San Antonio, and that's it. California...you get the idea.
A few rural farmers that don't make up 10% of the state population simply don't count.
Will never happen. Never even close.
It would be interesting to see that in the event Civil War 2.0 breaks out in the USA in the coming couple of years, how well are our IFS & defense policymakers prepared to address the geopolitical scenario.Good for Conservatives and Religious Right crowd, I would say.

Bhai, you really think that these polls are trustworthy? Political polls are one of the worst ones, look how inaccurate the 2016 elections ones were, they continuously kept lying about the 2020 ones, had to steal the election to elect Buddhan.
Whether we like it or not, Communal Riots will only amplify in the country in coming years. The BLM movement has just shown how deeply dis-united the United States is.It would be interesting to see that in the event Civil War 2.0 breaks out in the USA in the coming couple of years, how well are our IFS & defense policymakers prepared to address the geopolitical scenario.
If the global cop is busy dousing the flames engulfing his police station, that puts every country for itself.
Do we have a contingency plan with Japan and Vietnam to take down the CCP? There is literally no one who is capable of or willing to fight the paper dragon.
I get your point.Bhai, you really think that these polls are trustworthy? Political polls are one of the worst ones, look how inaccurate the 2016 elections ones were, they continuously kept lying about the 2020 ones, had to steal the election to elect Buddhan.
Polls are almost never accurate. I won't even be surprised if this is a ploy by the Lying Press so that the FBI can use this as an excuse to target people by labeling them "domestic terrorists".
Plus, even if assuming it's 100% correct, what does "one in 4 support secession" mean? That means 75% of people, or 3 in every 4 people DON'T SUPPORT secession!
Again, there are some rural cowboys who fantasize about this, I am not saying the feeling isn't there. I am saying it is not possible.
And that's exactly what I am worried about. You see, this whole myth of associating CCP's aggression with the "middle kingdom" propaganda is just Western ignorance of the East as usual. In ancient China, the Middle Kingdom logic was only philosophical; much like how our land was called Bharatvarsha or the "Cherished land". In Japanese, we were called Tenjiku (Land of heavenly abode), and so on. Ancient China never had the need or capability to militarily outward since the Tibetan plateau & Himalayas made it impossible.Whether we like it or not, Communal Riots will only amplify in the country in coming years.

Sadly the belligerence of China will only grow with each passing year.
With Democrat as POTUS nothing can be expected, atleast Trump showed some balls.Only problem is, we need to find a different solution to what the US could do with Fat Boy.
Democrats are thirsty for Putin blood after the 2016 election googly. Obsessed with their cold war mentality, removing Russia will collapse support for many unwanted govt such as Iran, Venezuela etc.With Democrat as POTUS nothing can be expected, atleast Trump showed some balls.
US deepstate is now busy poking the bear for nothing at Ukraine border, in reality it should have make ammends with Russia to take on China.
Economically poor Russia is still US's number one nemesis.
I read somewhere that vast amount of Russia's wealth is under the control of Russian Oligarchs, and some of these Oligarchs control Putin and his party. (Cannot confirm)Of note, so called 'poor' Russia sits of resources worth circa USD 75Trillion, controls large chunk in EURASIA, has largest nuclear stockpile, strong army and low debt.
Not entirely true, though there are definitely some similarities to Imperial Japanese philosophy.And that's exactly what I am worried about.

The CCP's aggression comes from the Imperial Japanese philosophy of the 30s. Their doctrines are also similar to what Japanese commanders used during early capture of the Korean kingdoms and Manchuria.

Russia's economy is basically dead if they can't sell their oil. They need the West, not the other way around.Democrats are thirsty for Putin blood after the 2016 election googly. Obsessed with their cold war mentality, removing Russia will collapse support for many unwanted govt such as Iran, Venezuela etc.
China while it may have a huge economy its forces are surrounded on all fronts South Korea, Japan, India.
So for them Russia is low hanging fruit which should be bulldozed. Main thing is whether they can really make Russian submit, many tried in the past and it did not end well for them.
Of note, so called 'poor' Russia sits of resources worth circa USD 75Trillion, controls large chunk in EURASIA, has largest nuclear stockpile, strong army and low debt.
Oil and GasRussia's economy is basically dead if they can't sell their oil. They need the West, not the other way around.
Despite wishful thinking Russian Oil and Gas is going to the west. Just see the rage when Gas price was hiked in winter in Europe. Reducing purchasing power is something no leader wish to face, and getting cheap gas from UAE or Qatar is not a viable solution. So EU will still need Russian GasRussia's economy is basically dead if they can't sell their oil. They need the West, not the other way around.
More or less. Ruskies are not bad people, it's just that they are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Their basic situation is like this:I read somewhere that vast amount of Russia's wealth is under the control of Russian Oligarchs, and some of these Oligarchs control Putin and his party. (Cannot confirm)
Also I read about Boris Yelstin been an alleged CIA agent who took Russia to abyss. Putin came and put a brave face in front of the oligarchs, he succeeded to some extent.
