sleeping giant? Some century ago?

DystopianMuse:
15 years but your akant na 2010

DystopianMuse:
Prof. Appleyard | HOD Dept. Of Geopolitics of Nairaland

DystopianMuse:
I thinks this your claims are not entirely true. For passenger rail and metro , China n Japan no1. The US lags behind due to the fact that 1.its a car loving nation 2.lacl of political will to get it done 3. Ficking environmentalists n so on n so forth. And private startup like Brightline is fixing that already.But what they lack in passenger they compensate 2ith freight.
For roads and bridges I don't thinks so
U need to cast your mind to The US highway system one 9f the best in the world. For skyscraper that one na another matter 1st skyscrapers in China is just some of d ways they compete with the west and some of them are ghost cities while some are not even needed . Designs. You need to check out skyscrapers being designed by Sport car making companies like Bugatti 8n the Us and u will be marvelled. Imagine being able to take ur car aling with u to ur condo. I mean any level 3vem if u stay on the topmost floor. What about the billionaires row ultra thin skyscrapers. I can go on nd on..

FoolishBoy419:
You sir, are very ignorant. That ethnic Asians are excelling more than every other race in American univerisites doesn't automatically mean the best Chinese are in the US. This is as ridiculous as saying the best Nigerian students are those in Europe just because Nigerian students, according to many sources, perform better on average than White students. There are still millions of Chinese and Nigerian students that might have seen no reason to study in America.

Also, I find it shocking that someone would say China produces fake/substandard goods in 2024. You get substandard goods because that is what you are willing to pay for. When you pay the right price, you get the appropriate quality.

I'm not buying no Russian over hyping crap this new year.

They are overated... Period!... I doubt it will take the US 2days to bring her to her knees if a war ensued

Masterviolence:
I applaud the fact that you still take some time out to lecture this kids on geopolitics.

Masterviolence:
Game over doesn't mean the u.s dollar won't be used but the fact that an equal alternative is in existence the printing of paper to buy physical materials will be gone because If I sell an item I won't be accepting a paper that isn't backed by gold for what I'm selling.

You previously said you're a slave to the west (u.s) so this slavery doesn't only make you myopic but it also makes you dumb.

Tiopii:
so in what areas is the Chinese creativity obvious? mention areas China has overtaken the US

emmaodet:
How true is it that they were able to intercept all the hypersonic missiles while missiles with less speed hit targets?

Segun2222:
i know russia wont agree to yuan as a reserve currency neither will china accept the rouble. Brics be like labour party in nigeria, saudi and iran hates each other, china and indua hates each other, how about egypt thats a usa puppet

TrumpBiden:
"A top Hamas official, Saleh Arouri, has been killed in an Israeli drone strike in the south of Beirut, according to Hezbollah media."

I've not gone through all the pages but I bet this wasn't posted here

No worries, I'll do the honour 😁😁😁😁😁

He's in the paradise right now with Allah, both of them enjoying fucking 77 virgins.

DystopianMuse:
So you think the US dollar evolves around Petro dollar alone or economi3e revolvearoun GDP alone.

The US has some other features while it's king
1. The faith in US system or Govt not to default
2. Wide acceptability (some countries that accept ruppe for example have had hard time spending them)
3. Stability/// some safe heaven currency that investor flock to during crisis
4. Can you trust let's say Yuan for example. A devalued currency can be reserve currency
5. Fed reserve transparency
6.The stability of the political system of the issuing country
The size and prospects of the economy
Global integration of its markets and economy
A transparent and open economic system
A credible legal system
The quality of its sovereign debt
The ability to bear costs associated with a reserve currency


The size, depth and liquidity of financial markets
Many factors .. Petro dollars
Even if dollar is to be dethroned it's not now and won't be easy.

Segun2222:
how is it game over for the us, will china carry brics currency to trade from the usa or saudi will buy weapons with brics currency from usa

🏴‍☠⚔🇱🇧 Netanyahu's advisor: We did not claim responsibility for the assassination of Al-Arouri, and we did not target the Lebanese government or Hezbollah.

@stayfreeworld your oga don dey fear hezbollah 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Masterviolence:
The second write-up say it all.

'We're saying this shit because we need more money and weapons'

Ukraine as a country is run by drug lords.

WriterNiiig:
⚡Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valerii Zaluzhnyi:

Today, the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine downed 10 out of 10 Russian "Kinzhal" Kh-47M2 aeroballistic missiles with the help of the Patriot AD system. This is a record.

If the missiles hit their targets, the consequences would be catastrophic.

WriterNiiig:
⚡Ukraine has installed more than 500 thousand anti-tank mines on the border with Belarus, said the commander of the joint forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Naev.

“The density of minefields in the Northern operational zone has been increased 16 times,” he added.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Congratulations to MBS.


Iran and Saudi Arabia coming to together is a strategic & massive blow to US.

Vl3ly:
⚡️Saudi Arabia has officially joined BRICS, the state-owned Al Ekhbariya television reported.

@ukraine_watch

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Wahala for Zelensky.

I guess he should try Russian vodka

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
What about crystal meth?

nedu666:
I tell you. Zelensky thinks average Americans give a damn about Ukraine

Stefan00:
Concerning the Hungarian president, that is pure sarcasm and it is clear. The issue pertaining to the missile then I think he is wrong

DystopianMuse:
Seems Appleyard can't understand sarcasm. People like him should be avoided, so you no go explain tired because no evidence.
The other guy didn't make any bold claim.
And didn't the first person that started it make a bold claim as well. Any official resources to prove west "installed" Melei
Every leader name he mentioned was in a sarcastic way , not just Orban
And the other I think had moved on.
Why is Appleyard still flogging this issues.
Its the new year.

WrriterNig:
⚡Zelensky to the West:

Giving us money or giving us weapons, you support yourself. You save your children, not ours.

If Russia is allowed to take Ukrainian children, they will take other children.

If Russia violates the rights of Ukrainians, it will violate the rights in the world.

If Ukraine loses, Mr Putin will bring his wars closer to the West.

Putin feels weakness like an animal, because he is an animal. He senses blood, he senses his strength. And he will eat you for dinner with all your EU, NATO, Freedom, and democracy.

WrriterNig:
⚡Putin:

The situation on the battlefield is changing, the enemy is blown away.

Russia wants to end the conflict in Ukraine, but on its own terms.

Ukraine is not our enemy, but those who want to achieve Russia's strategic defeat are enemies.

From time immemorial, the West has set the task of dealing with Russia, but we, it seems, will deal with them faster.

Belgorod was a terrorist attack. Of course, we can hit squares in Kyiv and in any other city, I understand, everything is boiling with me, but what, do we need to hit civilians? No, we are hitting military targets, that’s what we will do.

shoodboi2:
Ukraine has anti-ship missiles. Lots of them. It's called the Neptune. That's what they often use to attack Russian ships. It was what it used against the Moskva ship. Ukraine also uses these missiles in land attack roles to attack Russian targets inside Russian territory.

The "original" news channels that you watch have tweaked the news to make it appear as if Ukraine is a weakling that's only in the fight because it's being armed by the west. That is a big fat lie. Ukraine is armed by Ukraine. Western weapons are only used to replace damaged/destroyed/captured Ukrainian weapons.

Ukraine is unable to produce/repair weapons for most part because Russia destroyed the factories at the beginning of the war. This was why Russia fired a lot of missiles at the beginning of the war. It was destroying Ukraine's missiles, warehouses, jets, and ships.

Today, despite all the so-called western aid, the majority of artillery, tanks, armored vehicles, and even air defense systems used by Ukraine are Ukrainian and not western. That should tell you a lot.

Fash20:
If these guys are Palestinians they would resist too. They are just being bias for some reason I don't know

Procashtips:
How can you fight a war against a country you're occupying?

A country with no standing military?
