The USMC needs THIS!

Iran is sending Russia long range missiles and drones. Ukraine is about to get bombarded with 500kg warheads

Sutton says Russia will be mocked? I wonder if they aren't onto something. We can't ramp up fast enough in peacetime to backfill our inventory after donations to Ukraine. Europe is in the same pickle (with smaller stocks to be replenished). I wonder if it would make sense to tap into labor in India, Brazil etc...It would bolster their domestic defense industry and give us additional industrial capacity that we lack here at home.

China plans to seize Taiwan on ‘much faster timeline,’ Blinken says

 via Washington Post

“There has been a change in the approach from Beijing toward Taiwan in recent years,” Blinken told an event at Stanford University on Monday.

This includes “a fundamental decision that the status quo was no longer acceptable and that Beijing was determined to pursue reunification on a much faster timeline,” he said. Blinken did not provide details on the claim of a shorter timeline and said China may be willing to use coercive means, a prospect that is “creating tremendous tensions.”

Here 

We're not ready.

The Navy damn sure ain't ready.  The Army ain't ready. The Air Force ain't ready.

The Marine Corps?

For a naval battle, its getting ready.  To repel an assault by Chinese Marines, Soldiers, Special Ops?

They're gonna get rolled.

But once again, everyone is focused on Europe when the globe changing dynamic will occur in the Pacific.

The Pentagon was thinking they'd move after 2030. Is it moved up to before Biden leaves office?

I think it is.

Looking at this administration, their slow response to crisis and the lack of mental acuity by our President and I'm guessing they'll have Taiwan before the President can be awaken from his afternoon nap.

If Americans can understand how much money is made by keeping us hating each other, in debt, sick, obese, drug addicted etc...

 

If ALL AMERICANS opened their eyes and realized the games that are being played with their emotions, intelligence, health, wealth, religion etc...we could turn everything around...

We work like slaves to buy shit we don't need, to impress people we don't like and we're stuck on that wheel till the day we die.

It's past time for a change.

Bad foreign policy and draconian sanctions have countries uniting in ways that many will find disturbing...

“The Crown Prince (prime minister Mohammad bin Salman bin Abdulaziz al Saud) did express Saudi Arabia’s desire to be part of Brics and they are not the only country,” said Ramaphosa.

He confirmed this on Sunday during an engagement with the media.

Brics held its first summit in 2009, with SA joining the following year. The bloc has generally been seen as an alternative to the dominance of the western economies.

“We did say that Brics having a summit next year under the chairship of South Africa in SA and the matter is going to be under consideration.

“A number of countries are making approaches to Brics members, and we have given them the same answer that it will be discussed by the Brics partners and thereafter a decision will be made.”

Remember when I told you about those sanctions being over the top and how every leader with commonsense would seek to shield themselves from them?

Well look at Saudi Arabia now.

This is what happens when you have an infantile foreign policy.

Saudi Arabia said no to keeping the oil flowing till after the elections and the Democrats (as usual) threw a hissy fit.

Being rational, the Saudis are moving now to blunt the "consequences" that Biden has threatened.

Where did they run?

Right into the hands of our enemies.

America might be the land of lions but we're led by jackasses.
