Chinese President Xi Jinping addressed the Politburo Standing Committee of the Chinese Communist Party on Wednesday, stressing China's military readiness after the Army ''fully implemented the strategy of reforming and strengthening the military','' as reported by CCTV.
The media wrote that Xi said the country should ''grasp the new situation and [...] focus on preparing for war,'' without providing further details on what conflict he referred to.

A window is here now. Watch them move before November.
Si vis pacem, para bellum
If you want peace, prepare for war. ............................
Shades of the mid 1930s.
While Russia and China go hot, the west diddles themselves in the corner over climate change and social justice.
^^^^THIS^^^^^
A war with China would be a boon for US manufacturing and US labor!!!! Short term pain in xchange for long term economic security.
It's a fast moving storm, financed by the US taxpayers and both political sides of the Free Trade issue. GATT/WTO enabled China to become a economic and military super power. We tried to warn the Establishment, but our voices were drowned out.
Out of necessity it would return manufacturing to America.
Biden has put the USA in a very difficult situation with Putin and Xi. It all started with Biden shutting down energy production in the USA. Biden’s energy move gave Putin and Xi a billion dollars a day income to wage war or do whatever they wanted. It was a Christmas Present to them, totally unexpected so they took the money and ran and now the USA is in a historical deep hole that Biden and the Dems are not smart enough to get us out. What a bunch of clowns? Wait till the shelves become empty in the grocery stores and fuel prices skyrocket.
Also, the Axis never had anything like the kind of penetration into our government like the Chinese have achieved.
~~~
And we were super paranoid of the German’s and Japanese infiltration back in the second world war, but you are right, they weren’t anywhere remotely close to the penetration and saturation that China has.
What is more, American’s back then were very patriotic. Loose lips, enlist, women in factories, everyone sacrificing materials, etc. These days you’ll be lucky if anyone lifts a finger, let alone not turning on the home team.
Xi wants to go into history as the guy who unified China, in the face of opposition from powerful and grasping foreign barbarians.
A silver lining is that a war with China will kill all the neo-marxist green nonsense here in the west for generation.
A conventional war, maybe. If nuclear, no boon for anyone.
China will have a very difficult time trying to take Taiwan.
China will buy out Taiwan without firing a shot.
Sounds like the USA has what it wanted and the warmongers here have been in glee over — WWIII:
US pursues own interest at expense of others - Raisi
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi accused the United States on Wednesday of pursuing its own objectives “at the expense of the interest of other countries,” underlining that Washington cannot accept countries standing on “their own two feet.”
“America is equivocating militarism with security the friends,” stressed Raisi at the 77th United Nations General Assembly, noting that the current developments in Europe are a “mirror image of what has happened in Western Asia decades ago.”
The Iranian president also noted that new world order is emerging, one in which financial power dominates morality where “criminal and oppressive sanctions” are used in conjunction with international organizations to repress people and put pressure on “defenseless nations.”

EU warns it will react to Russia’s actions
A spokesperson for the European Union said on Wednesday that Russia’s actions in Ukraine will result in “consequences on our part” and that member states are discussing further steps. He reiterated the EU’s support for Ukraine and its right to protect its territorial integrity, even after the referendums in the four separatist regions. He insisted that the EU will not recognize the results of the referendums and Russia’s claim to these territories.
The spokesperson condemned Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “nuclear gamble” and added that the partial military mobilization is “yet another sign of Putin’s desperation.” He noted that Russia is sending a “clear signal to the entire international community” that it is “only interested in continuing and advancing his war” instead of contributing to solutions.

Lithuania puts rapid reaction force on high alert
Lithuanian Defense Minister Arvydas Anusauskas (pictured) stated on Wednesday that his country’s rapid reaction force has been put on high alert “to prevent any provocation from Russia.” He added that the decision was taken as Russia’s military mobilization “will also take place near our borders,” in the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad.
Meanwhile, Latvia said it will consult with allies and partners on the new developments in the war in Ukraine “and discuss possible additional security measures in the region.” Latvian Foreign Minister Edgars Rinkevics also announced that, due to security reasons, Latvia will not issue humanitarian or other visas to Russian citizens who avoid mobilization and it will keep its visa restrictions.

US takes Putin’s remarks on nuclear arms seriously
United States National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby told ABC News on Wednesday, in an interview, that Washington is taking Russian President Vladimir Putin’s latest remarks regarding the possible use of nuclear weapons “seriously.”
“It’s irresponsible rhetoric for nuclear power to talk that way. But it’s not atypical for how he’s been talking the last seven months,” Kirby underlined.
Kirby stressed that the US is closely monitoring Moscow’s “strategic posture so that, if we have to, we can alter ours [but] we have seen no indications that that is required now.” The US official underlined that there will be “severe consequences” if Russia opts to use nuclear arms.

Thanks for this excellent post.
"Putin and Xi ultimately share the same goal as Klaus Schwab and the globalists -- the destruction of the Western nation-state, which has been the basic organizing unit of the functioning world since the Peace of Westphalia four centuries back." | ![]() |
I think you're right unless Biden employs the Ukraine Method and urges Taiwan to fight to the last man in an effort to bleed China.
