  1. Listen to this video dated December 2025: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=horPUEr_BgM As China gains more influence, especially with its bordering countries, the USA wants to counter this influence with a "proxy" war between these countries to divert Chinese attention, and resources. The description below the videos reads: " Contrary to what other news outlets may suggest, the escalating Cambodia–Thailand border conflict is not a mere regional dispute that sparked up out of nowhere, but rather the result of U.S. involvement, with just one piece of evidence being the docking of U.S. warships in Cambodia for the first time in years. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger argue that Cambodia’s recent pivot toward closer military ties with the United States—highlighted by its U.S.-educated leadership—is being framed as part of a broader strategy to create pressure points around China’s periphery. Jimmy compares the situation to Ukraine, asserting both conflicts function as U.S.-backed proxy confrontations driven by economic and geopolitical interests rather than local self-defense. Overall, the segment portrays the fighting as an example of U.S. “color revolution” tactics that destabilize regions while insulating American elites from the consequences".
  2. Probably (almost certainly?) has a mental problem? That would be (the only?) legitimate excuse. He's not mentally aware of time and place. Other than that I agree with you.
  3. I see ASEAN and many of its followers are following the US propaganda line with this "Russian invasion" story of Ukraine. After a US facilitated coup in Ukraine installing a "NAZI" government that went to war within its own country killing it's own Russian speaking people, who didn't want anything to do with the unelected government that seized power. Then this government wanted to join NATO, and its on the border with Russia. Putin didn't want this, and put up with the "ethnic cleansing" going on in its neighbouring country so put forward a peace proposal thas was rejected. Anyone remember the Cuban Missile Crisis? Similar analogy. Thank goodness for Putin!
