What’s next between Russia and the United States; a video illustration [1]

Ok, it is the weekend before CNY January 30, 2022. There is a ton load of things happening right now. A real enormous pile of shit.

On top of the USA rout in Afghanistan, the failed color revolution in Belarus, and Kazakhstan, the death of the CIA assets in Tibet, and the multiple submarine events in the South Pacific Sea (One “crash into a mountain”, and another missing sub and recovery effort with the cover of “recovery of an F-35C in the ocean”) things are not going well for the USA.

The ramp up for a war in the Ukraine did not happen, and now the USA is trying to sabotage the Olympic Games in China. Geeze! Can’t these assholes give it a rest?

There’s so much that one can say about an uncertain future, but one thing is for sure, that the harder the United States try to drag the world into a global war, the greater it’s losses mount.

Everyone by now should realize that both China and Russia told the United States to stop putting nuclear weapons in their borders, trying to instigate “color revolutions” and hybrid-wars, and all the rest. But the “red lines”, the requests for “white tent” peace, and cooperation are going nowhere.

The United States, like a snotty assed brat, said no. NO! And you can’t make me! Nah. Nah, Nah, nah.

There are no “positive things” in the American response. 

The response is a flagrant and contemptible rejection of Moscow’s core demands on NATO expansion and the deployment of nuclear missiles to locations on Russia’s border.

Obviously, they believe that they can goad Asia into a fight where the United States would emerge the Victor.

Both Putin and Xi have plans for how to deal with what comes next.

China Sitrep: Cookies, Lil’Blinky and The Pain Dial

By Amarynth and intended as a quick update and a companion piece to The Saker’s Chaos piece here: http://thesaker.is/panic-and-chaos-is-clearly-stetting-in-as-the-west-fears-peace-above-all-else/

Victoria Nuland (affectionately known as Cookies), jumped the shark.

She called her counterpart in China and demanded, (asked, petulantly begged?): China Do Something!. Influence the Russians!. We need a concession from them. Just Do Something! There were the requisite attempts to deliver soft threats: “if there is a conflict in Ukraine it is not going to be good for China either,” as “there will be a significant impact on the global economy”

The Chinese Foreign Ministry responded:

Stop interfering in the Olympics
Pay attention to Russia’s Security Guarantees which are valid
Give up your zero-sum game and the Cold War mentality and use the correct method to put out the fires you started.

On the very same day, this past Thursday, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken (affectionately known as Lil’Blinky) had a telephone conversation with China’s State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi. Lil’Blinky talked about the risks posed by “further Russian aggression against Ukraine” and conveyed that “de-escalation and diplomacy are the responsible way forward.”

Wang Yi responded:

Stop interfering in the Olympics
Pay attention to Russia’s Security Guarantees as this is valid and important
Give up your zero-sum game and the Cold War mentality and use the correct method to put out the fires you started.
And what about those Minsk accords? You understand they have to be implemented, don’t you?

Global Times wrote an op-ed about all of this, explaining: “The root cause of the Ukraine issue is that the US has promoted NATO’s eastward expansion unrestrainedly, thus pushing Russia into a corner where there is no way to retreat.

Washington is the culprit of the crisis.

The US now hopes China will “persuade” Russia. In essence, it wants China to urge Moscow to make a concession. The perfect plan Washington desires is that Moscow will cooperate unconditionally with the US’ geopolitical ambitions. How absurd and ridiculous its logic is!”

So both Cookies and Lil’Blinky struck out on the highest levels of the diplomatic circles in Beijing.

What?

More interference in the Beijing Winter Olympics?

Yes.

That would be the new plot to encourage athletes to create chaos and to cause trouble everywhere.

Sources said the plan includes encouraging athletes to express dissatisfaction with China for various reasons, not to compete or even not to participate in the games.

The US has also pledged to offer generous rewards to athletes who join the program and to mobilize global resources to “protect the personal reputations” of athletes who choose to play negatively. (Is this what the 47 state department officials for security only wanted visas for)?

The US is also blowing smoke of withdrawing their diplomats from China during the course of the Olympics. Can you connect the dots in terms of what is being planned here?

And then they want China to help with concessions?

How perfectly arrogant.

And oh BTW, China is also not interested in the US’ F-35C stealth fighter that recently crashed in the South China Sea, says the Foreign Ministry.

It was left to the new Chinese Ambassador to the US to ratchet up the final pain dial one more click. In an interview with NPR, to a US Audience, his first public interview since taking the post as Chinese Ambassador, he states:

“If the Taiwanese authorities, emboldened by the United States, keep going down the road for independence, it most likely will involve China and the United States, the two big countries, in a military conflict.”

This has caused shockwaves in the United States.

Duh? I mean, how stupid can people be? But then again, I am talking about the United States, after all -MM

China simply says that the US must take its warning with all seriousness and Washington’s strategic arrogance will only drag the US into more tense strategic unpreparedness.

In addition, this exacting expression is used:

If Washington provokes either China or Russia, the other one will not be indifferent.

Seems to me Lil’Blinky and Cookies have just been wack-a-moled. Apparently, Blinken was so curtly dealt with, that he could not get to the litany of human rights abuses and the Uyghurs and whatever else. He was cut off smartly before he could rattle off that old litany of nonsense.

Ambassador to the US Qin Gang has succeeded in raising the stakes and turning the tables.

Indeed, like a little kid.

The pot of water is boiling on the stove, and the moronic United States, like little children, are trying to reach up and grab the handle.

So what is next…?

In this example, I will use a scene from the American television series “Breaking Bad”. In this scene, there is a fight / conflict between two gangs over some drug territory.

The guy in white represents the local (well established) drug boss in the town. The others are hungry, mean and aggressive Mexican cartel members who are moving in and taking over his territory.

We get the idea, in watching this scene, that the guy (and his gang) in white clothes believes that he is “untouchable” and that his local, well established reputation will be enough to protect him. And that is anything happens, it will be something like what you see in the movies or in television.

But reality is not like that.

The cartel uses strategy.

When you watch this scene, keep that in mind. Consider the United States to be fat guy guzzling a super-sized coke and acting haughty on “his turf”. And the Mexican cartel guys to be Asia (China, Russia and Iran).

Watch and learn. Strategy.

That’s what is coming next. MARK MY WORDS. Please watch this little video. Click on the link if your internet isn’t that functional.

Interesting times

Obviously, whoever, or whatever is running the United States and the Western Block today, are seriously disconnected from reality.

I am not saying that Russia or China will engage in a hot kinetic war, but you can bet your sweet bippy that they are going to take action in a well-planned, well-coordinated, and thorough effort.

…

Again, don’t get too hot and bothered about anything. Again, follow my age-old grandfatherly advice…

Don’t get so caught up in all the fearmongering talk.

Follow the basic MM precepts. You will be fine.

Affirmation prayers.
Stable world-line templates and controlled slides.
Fate forecasting.
Be the Rufus.
Participate in your local community.
Be prudent, traditional and have a larder.

You all will be fine.

…

Now go forth and call up a friend. Invite him over. What the Hell are you waiting for?

Then, place a tray of chicken wings in the oven and have a case of beer on hand. Then just hang out with friends and family, eat the chicken legs, wings or whatever, and drink beer together. Maybe play some cards.

Just share your time.

Maybe even play an old board game. Risk. Monopoly. Chess, or checkers. Possibly Trivial Pursuit.

Oh, expert tip…

After taking the chicken out of the over, pour honey over all of them, and then have some blue cheese salad dressing nearby and place it in a bowl for dipping purposes.

It will look something like this…

Now…

Picture the scene.

Friends. Beer. Delicious food. It’s called “Heaven”.

The American demands of China during the 2016-2019 trade negotiations (war). The arrogance is astounding.

The world is well aware of the 2016 through 2019 trade negotiations between America (the United States) and China. It lasted three years, and was marked by a seemingly endless set of stops and false starts. Finally culminating with a “phase one” agreement immediately prior to the the COVID-19 (coronavirus outbreak). What many people are not aware of is the list of demands placed upon China by the (neocon) negotiation team. Here, we look at the impossible demands, and record them for prosperity.

Remember this well kids; this is NOT how you negotiate.

Negotiation is a matter of give and take, where both sides have the belief that they “won” the negotiation. You do not enter into negotiations with the idea that “you will do as I say, or I will destroy you!“.

The American Advantage.

What many people, especially Americans (locked up within their propagandized bubble) do not understand is that America doesn’t have much clout to negotiate with.

America has little to offer China.

While it might seem like “China needs America, more than America needs China”, the truth is that is actually the other way around.

The exports to America, from China, are a very small percentage of the Chinese export market.

The imports from America to China are also tiny. With aircraft and cotton being the leading exports.

Thus, the “Trump trade war” has very little impact on China.

This is not the world of the 1980’s. The rest of the globe has grown, and they have vibrant middle classes, malls and cities. China services the world. Not only America. In fact, over the years, it appears that the bulk of products exported to America from China are increasingly the cheapest and easiest to make.

Meanwhile the rest of the world opts for better to best quality, and higher priced consumer products. All provided by China.

I’ve covered this in another post here…

The actual trade imports that China obtains from the United States.
One of the often cited misconceptions that many Americans have is that China would collapse if the United States were to stop trading with her. The idea is that "China needs us more than we need them". It's not true, and it's not even remotely true. Here, is the actual import data that China imports from the United States. Take a good long hard look at it.

You see, there really isn’t much of an advantage that America has. It can only negotiate from a point of military strength.

The John Bolton strategy… “do as we say or we will erase you from the surface of the earth”.

American Negotiation Team

The Negotiation team set up by President Trump was filled and staffed by hard-line neocons. These war-mongering dinosaurs are the reason why the entire world economy was riding a “roller coaster” for the last three years.

They entered the negotiations with “strong demands“, and “hard lists“. Then when things would apparently be going well, the American team backed out and left the table.

This continued for three long years, and threw the world economy into a tail spin.

List of American Demands

The negotiation strategy was one of strength. From the American side it was “do this, or face the consequences”.

American strategy: Do as I say, or face the consequences.

This is well known throughout the American news media, though they didn’t say it as brutally or bluntly as I did.

It’s all described as “reasonable”, “fair” and “common sense”. You know, “…for the children”.

All lies.

Just like “common sense gun control”. Just like “reasonable sentencing guidelines”, and “zero tolerance rules for the school children.”

It’s all just propaganda.

That’s all it is.

For most Americans, reading the news, they are mistakenly under the impression that the “trade wars” was all about trade. It wasn’t. It was about global power, and how America can retard the growth of China long enough to recover it’s former standing.

Here’s the list of demands that the American (neocon) trade negotiation team placed upon China…

Now to be clear and certain, this is not ALL of the demands, nor the thousands of bullet lists that the trade negotiations encompass. I am not the mainstream press.

The American media would report on a Thanksgiving dinner in the following manner...

"There was a Thanksgiving dinner. People were upset about the tooth pick selection. The toothpicks were too wooden, too few, and not the proper size. Anonymous sources within the dinner party has referred to the dinner as "catastrophic" and desiring strong toothpick discipline..."

Selective reporting is NOT reporting. It is propaganda.

Thus here, I am going to concentrate on the general omissions in American coverage of the trade war events. Here we look at some of the American demands that only warranted a mere sentence or two in a multi-page report.

[1] Independence for Tibet

If you read the American media you might be inclined to say that this is not unreasonable. The Western media is saturated with news about unhappy Tibetans and the need for “freedom” and “democracy”. That’s the story. That’s the propaganda.

Here’s a selection of some readings to give you all an idea of what is going on in Tibet and what America is up to…

What you don’t read is any thing positive about China and Tibet.

That’s right. All Western media is all about the unhappiness and “unrest” in Tibet. Americans read this while never setting a foot there, knowing people there, or getting news from other areas.

The fact is that Tibet is not riddled with unrest, strife and unhappiness. It’s quite the contrary.

Modern Tibet. It just doesn't fit the American propagandized narratives. — Modern Tibet. It just doesn’t fit the American propagandized narratives.

Just go and see for yourself. Do not take my word for it.

In the meantime, realize that by removing the Tibet region from China, it takes a sizable geographic bite out of China. It’s roughly equivalent to removing California, New Mexico, Arizona and Texas from America.

NOT . GOING . TO . HAPPEN .

[2] Independence for Xinjiang Muslims

This is a “much to do about nothing” narrative. The entire Uyghur Muslim independence movement is a CIA fabrication.

Oh, how I hate to use the letters "CIA" in anything. It makes me sound like some kind of conspiracy kook. 

Yet.

The CIA does exist. They do launch revolutions, and they ARE involved in trying to destabilize China.

Likewise the narrative continues for the independence for Xinjiang. Oh, you don’t know what I’m talking about? I am talking about the Uyghur Muslims. Oh, I’m sure you read about the millions and millions of poor harmless Muslims in re-education camps.

What’s the latest figure? Eleven million people in concentration camps. OK. I’ll bite. Point the camps out to me using Google Maps. After all New York City is six million people, so any camps that are double that size should be easy to see…

Anyways.

‘East Turkistan‘ terrorist forces – True Xinjiang

The reason to cause unrest and strife in Xinjiang is to stop the Road and Belt initiative from taking place there. For those “poor Muslims” are going to become filthy Dubai-rich within the next ten years. Oh, no! That will not help the United States one bit, and must be stopped.

Don’t you know.

“For the children”.

As I have stated before, the idea that China would discard the Road and Belt initiative, and isolate themselves to an over reliance on sea shipment of goods is a “pipe dream”.

NOT . GOING . TO . HAPPEN .

[3] Independence for Taiwan

Taiwan is populated with Han Chinese. But maintains it’s own government structure. It’s the one nation, two systems philosophy that China maintains. Well, that does not sit well with the negotiation team. They want Taiwan to sever ALL TIES with China, and instead make Taiwan a client nation with the United States.

Here’s a mixture of links to help you all flush out the situation…

Taiwan is like a nice big juicy aircraft carrier right off the Chinese mainland.

Anyone who even thinks that China would even consider this is smoking too much of that wacky weed. China is a nation of merit. Their leadership ranks are filled with the best and the brightest. They will not even contemplate such an abomination.

NOT . GOING . TO . HAPPEN .

China without Tibet and Xinjiang and Taiwan.

[4] Freedom for Hong Kong

Hong Kong is a tiny nation. It too is part of the one nation, two systems set of governance.

The US involvement in the HK "Democracy Now" movement.

However, it is important. This is because it is the second portal to the Road and Belt initiative.

This is who is funding the Hong Kong protests, and no, they are not organic. Here we look at the protests in Hong Kong and who is funding and training them. For they are using sophisticated urban combat techniques, as well as creating very sophisticated bombs, and handmade weapons. Obviously, some agent wants this group to cause damage and trouble in Hong Kong.

By freezing egress from that portal, American can retard trade routes and isolate China effectively.

By controlling Hong Kong and Taiwan, and arranging for military bases in both those areas, America can easily place military forces in close proximity to the Chinese mainland.

NOT . GOING . TO . HAPPEN .

[5] Adopt a two party democracy

There is nothing so rude, so arrogant as to tell someone that you don’t like their hair style, their clothing, and the way they sign their name. Well, that’s American industry today. All of which happened to me.

Well, these jackasses in Washington, don’t even give a seconds thought to applying this level of rudeness to other nations.

That’s like China telling Washington DC to disband all political parties and adopt Communism.

ITS. NOT. GOING. TO. HAPPEN.

China today is a single party, traditional conservative nation. Much like the United States was initially setup up as. Then after the 12th amendment the formation of two parties came into being with "democracy". This is what Trump is demanding of China. To allow a second opposition group to embrace "democracy". — China today is a single party, traditional conservative nation. Much like the United States was initially setup up as. Then after the 12th amendment the formation of two parties came into being with “democracy”. This is what Trump is demanding of China. To allow a second opposition group to embrace “democracy”.

Perspective

If the roles were reversed. And China demanded these similar kinds of demands on the United States, the nation would look something like this…

What America would look like if the Chinese made the same kinds of demands that the American neocon negotiation team are making.

Conclusions

The five major structural demands that the American negotiation team placed on China did not occur. They will not occur. They never will occur.

Independence for Tibet. (US client state.)
Independence for Xinjiang. (US client state.)
Independence for Taiwan. (US client state.)
Independence for Hong Kong. (US client state.)
Change the Chinese government into a two-party “democracy”.

China has spent the last two decades trying to be come functionally independent from the rest of the world, but tied to the global economic reality. You will [1] not be able to successfully instigate famine in China via trade restrictions, even if you use biological warfare on both the chicken and pork industries. You will [2] not get them to sever their ties with their neighbors, and [3] you will not get them to embrace the failed American “democracy” model.

NOT . GOING . TO . HAPPEN .
