Manufacturing is a war now - by Noah Smith - Noahpinion

#geopolitics #imperialism #manufacturing #war

At that point, what will the U.S. do if neither we nor our allies can make munitions in large numbers? We will have to choose to either 1) escalate to nuclear war, or 2) lose the war to China. Those will be our only options. Either way, the U.S. and its allies will lose.

Notice that the previous sentence explains perfectly what's happening in Ukraine. Ukraine can't win and never could because of this and it was obvious from the very start of the "hot war" in 2022.

The EU is a complete US lapdog to the points that, to paraphrase the old Polish joke about their own leaders' subservience to Moscow, "when it rains in Washington EU leaders open their umbrella".

Angela Merkel: mother of German decline - UnHerd

#geopolitics #imperialism #war #NATO

in her book Merkel strongly defends her efforts to secure peace — or at the very least a ceasefire — in Ukraine. Her approach was grounded in the belief that “a military solution to the conflict, that is to say a Ukrainian military victory over the Russian troops, was an illusion”. She advised Ukraine’s new government that a resolution would not be possible without dialogue and diplomacy. This, she emphasised, did not mean “that Ukraine must not defend itself when its territory is invaded, but ultimately — and incidentally, this is not the only part of the world where this is true — diplomatic solutions must be found… I could even go so far as to say: there will be no military solution.”

They Lied About Gaza, And They're Lying About Syria

#geopolitics #imperialism #war

It’s hard to say exactly what’s happening in the moment, but I will say it’s mighty convenient how Russia being tied up in Ukraine and Hezbollah being decapitated by Israel leaves Syria once again exposed to the longstanding regime change agendas of the same western empire who’s been backing both of those proxy conflicts.
