Trump is offering Xi semiconductor chips so Xi will allow more rare earth exports which the US will use to build weapons to kill Russians, Iranians, then Chinese.
While threatening to impose 100% tariffs on China for buying Russian oil which it needs to process the rare earth exports that the US is begging for.

It's infuriating when you think about it.

LordAdam16:
This.

75% of the Axis so-called limitations is tied to the Hegemon economic system.
You always have to consider the vast majority of the Global South who are still tightly wound with the default system.

Truth be told, the pace of setting up this system has been slow.
If you want the rest of the Global South to slowly loosen ties with the West, you have to create, validate, and fully back an alternative.
And the core of the Axis, Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela should be the ambassadors that sell the alternate system by showing it works.

For instance, thanks to Russia's ability to weather Western sanctions in spite of them stealing $300B and the continued surge in BRICS economies, you can see how long the line was when BRICS started selling application forms.
They have to build on that.

The West has all but declared economic war on the Axis.
The path forward could not be more apparent.

End of August will be eventful.

Europe will activate snapback UN sanctions on Iran. This action is veto-proof.
China and Russia cannot stop it.

The US plans to impose secondary sanctions on Russia's allies.

Both are economic actions.
The Axis response is the bigger deal.

I think he was going off the fact that Iranian drones didn't start causing significant damage until later in the 12D war when Israel started rationing interceptors.

He isn't considering the idiosyncrasies of both wars.
If Russia fires Gerans towards France, the rate of interception will be high.

We all witnessed how Hezbollah used drones to good effect. Striking Satanyahu's home. Striking the military base canteen that caused perhaps the top mass casualty event of the war for Hezbollah. Can't forget the memes of Hezbollah drones asking for directions from Israeli helicopters. Israel accepted that it had no answer for cross-border drone attacks.

Iranian drones are second only to Chinese drones.
And at the moment, it feels like you have to split drone tech to categories to get a better picture.
Like in the heavy category, the US was the de facto top ranking, but China is on track to surpass them when they start inducting more of the stealth UAV fleet. China is already ahead in stealth drone tech, but mass production is still in progress.
In the light category, China ranks highest. Courtesy of DJI dominance.
In the intermediate category, Iran is joint top with Russia. Russian modifications have turbocharged the Gerans.

The US developed UAVs to be reusable systems primarily for recon and strikes to complement their manned systems.
That's what they focused on. Light and intermediate were always more expensive and less performant than Axis competition.
We can all remember how the Switchblades turned out to be duds.
China and Iran excelled in a category that the US dropped the ball on.

Russia took a different drone development path.
They adopted Iranian intermediate and Chinese light because they're perfect for cross border operations.
Prior to the war, the Russian MoD prioritized heavy drone development to match the US and China.
Their S-70 Okhotnik-B heavy drone is just as advanced as China's next gen stealth drones.

I think we should start explaining things to him like a two year old child. Because his behavior is seriously alarming.

I just hope he argues because he loves arguing and not because he doesn't understand. Because that will be a serious issue.

We are discussing weapons coming into Syria you are taking about weapons moving from Syria into labenon🤣🤣🤣

I ask you again do the Syrian government controls the entire borderline in Syria, how then can they control the flow of weapons into Syria

Your article says Lebanon not Syria

Syrian authorities seized a shipment of weapons heading to the Hezbollah terror group in Lebanon, the official SANA news agency reported on Sunday

According to SANA, the shipment was heading to Hezbollah via smuggling routes on the Lebanon-Syria border, in the area of the border city of Sarghaya.

Images showed several assault rifles, RPG launchers, and ammunition.

Earlier this month, Syrian authorities said they captured a shipment of rifles, Iranian-made drones, and other weapons they said were headed to Lebanon, but at the time did not explicitly mention Hezbollah.

Active Syrian efforts to prevent weapon transfers to Hezbollah would represent a significant turnaround after years of enabling such shipments under the former Bashar al-Assad regime, though it was unclear whether the latest captures represented a broad shift in policy.

Iran long supplied Hezbollah with weapons through Syria with Assad’s blessing, but there has been some hope that this would stop under the country’s new rulers, who are not aligned with Iran’s regional aspirations.

Israel has also been concerned that weapons from the fallen regime could be sent to the terror group in Lebanon. The IDF has struck several border crossings between Syria and Lebanon to prevent arms from reaching Hezbollah.

Sharaa has also asserted that Israel had a right to target Iranian-backed forces, who supported Assad and backed Hezbollah, prior to the former Syrian leader’s fall, but he said that Israel has no legitimate basis to keep operating in Syria since the regime change.

Immediately after Assad’s fall, Israeli forces moved into a buffer zone along the border, but said this was a temporary measure until the intentions of the new regime could be verified.

He has repeatedly assured Israel and Western powers that Syria was exhausted by years of civil war and that at this stage it would not be dragged into conflicts that may lead to further destruction, but would rather focus on reconstruction and stability.


In late December, Sharaa also announced the dissolution of armed factions and said that Syria’s new leadership would not allow any weapons in the country that are not under state control.

Israel has also signaled its desire to have “correct ties” with the new regime, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in early December, but “if this regime allows Iran to reestablish itself in Syria, or allows the transfer of Iranian weapons or any other weapons to Hezbollah, or attacks us, we will respond forcefully and we will exact a heavy price from it.”

Israel and Syria do not have diplomatic relations and have formally been in a state of war since Israel declared independence in 1948.

So one article is proof they can successfully police a country like Syria, when they don't even control the entire borderline of the country, do you even think at all?? so because the nigerian customs makes some few arrests and some seizures means Nigerian borders is safe??.


I don't entertain certain mentions mate! Am making an exception because it is you

U.S. develops its own version of Iranian kamikaze drone

Looks exactly like Iranian Shahed kamikaze drone. This is the drone Trump told America's MIC to build and he complained they came back to him with $41 million project and he told them he needed something like Iranian Kamikaze drone that costs $25,000.

We will sure be having a lot of fun. And so will Hezbollah and Iran. Nothing will be sweeter than seeing the three useless lots: Jolani, Israel, and Turkey fighting themselves 😂

shoodboi2:
This is not humanitarian and has nothing to do with Iran. Why is Iran even in this conversation? Are you now trying to blame Iran for what Israel is doing in Syria?

1. Israel has been attacking Syria ever since Assad left. In fact, Israel even occupied parts of Syria once Assad jetted out. So this is clearly not humanitarian.

2. Iran is not involved in this. Hezbollah and Jolani are not even on the same side. So, Jolani hates them as much as he hates Israel, if not more. Take Iran out of it.

3. We warned you all back then, didn't we? Back when you guys were jubilating about Assad fleeing Syria. We warned you guys.

Strikes by the Israeli Air Force have now destroyed the Ministry of Defence and General Staff Headquarters in the Syrian capital of Damascus.

Israel, which less than a week ago was bombing Iran, is now bombing the military and government in Damascus that kicked Iranian-backed forces out of Syria.
Israel once again proves that it will do anything to prevent a unified and stable Syria.

LordAdam16:
Israel Broadcasting said the reports of the US asking them to stop bombing was fake news.

I just dey munch popcorn since the confrontation start.
