Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

When it comes to Russia and China being allies, it's important to remember that in the early days of the Second World War, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union collaborated with one another. Until June 22, 1941, the USSR butchered just as many people and according to some estimates, more.

The Soviets ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

Adding to Navigator's point, Iran's nuclear program has been set back. Precisely how much, we don't know, but I suspect Iran knows their position is fragile. All the stories about their formidable defenses has proven to be a load of crap. Assad has fallen, Hezbollah has been defanged, Hamas is ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

The dominoes are falling, but they're falling in reverse order than what I imagined would happen a few years ago. Israel no longer cares about world opinion, as I mentioned before. Even if we forbade this strike, I think they'd have done it anyway, terrified of Iran with a nuclear bomb.

Iran's ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

One thing I've been convinced of for some time is that the Soviet Union suffered a "First Turning Reset" after the Great Patriotic War, thanks to the massive devastation. Bad as the Western Front was, the Eastern Front was a whole different level of brutality. At least 25 million and possibly as ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

It is a shame John's no longer with us. When he first predicted we'd be at war with China, all the way back in 2002, public opinion toward China was positive or at least neutral. Plenty believed that as they developed economically, they'd become freer, but if anything, the opposite has happened ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

From the beginning, Trump's wanted to focus on China. He thought he'd be able to get a peace deal and be worshipped as a great leader, but it hasn't worked out that way. He offered Putin 90% of what he wanted, only for him to change the terms and demand even more.

We've been slow to wake up to ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

Yes, China is indeed playing the long game. However, the short term has a way of making the long term obsolete. How many of our lives went as we planned them?

Let's not forget they've done one unbelievably idiotic thing after another. Their one-child policy has been a complete disaster, and they're ...

Foreign Policy:
I think that Russia is far past the point of no return in regards to aligning with China.

Economics:
We could very well see the downturn that is expected shortly. God only knows what has kept the wheels from falling off for so long, since the problems that caused 2008 were never ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

There's been endless speculation about when and how China will attack, but the former will depend on one thing: whenever the CCP decides it's their "now or never moment." Twenty years ago, it was common knowledge that China was going to replace us as a superpower and we'd better just get used to ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

To add to what Navigator and Jack have said, I watched the full video of the dispute between Trump and Zelenskyy. Neither of them came out looking very good. They couldn't even keep the dispute in private, instead ranting at each other in full view of the cameras.

Ukraine's always had a huge issue ...
