Rachel Reeves Secures Billions for Ukraine and UK Defence Amid Transatlantic Tensions
Who is this? Someone who will never be on the Russia Front with a rifle, dying for their country. But? Happy to send the kids of all of the "little people" and common folk to die for the grand plans of the UK and the EU elites! -

Starmer Urges Zelensky to Reconcile with Trump, but Tensions Remain High
CNN and other major media are today carrying video clips on their youtube channels giving us a glimpse of the 19 or so European and transatlantic leaders who gathered in London to discuss with Volodymyr Zelensky how to continue their cooperation in defense of Ukraine following the debacle in the White House in Washington yesterday, when Zelensky was humiliated before the television cameras and was shown to the door. Among the 19 whom I counted when they posed for the obligatory group photo were Emmanuel Macron, Donald Tusk, Georgia Meloni, Justin Trudeau, Mark Rutte, Ursula von der Leyen. In the few introductory words delivered by Keir Starmer, we heard that their common mission is to provide for European security, in which defending Ukraine plays a vital role. They seemingly wish to arrive at a common position on defending Ukraine that they will later present to Washington. The problem with this is that they are knowingly running directly against the now crystal clear position of Donald Trump to wash his hands of Zelensky and to allow the Russians to finish up this war as they see best. The U.S. is about to cut off shipments of arms prepared by Biden in his last days and will surely not send any further weapons to Kiev out of its current budget. It is utterly bizarre that these stubborn Europeans think that they have some leverage with Trump. Their blindness is not merely to the obvious fact that absent the participation of the USA in the war effort consisting of materiel, money and critically important satellite intelligence to guide battlefield operations, the Ukrainian forces have no chance whatsoever of standing up to Russia. Europe’s possible aid will solve nothing. More to the point, when they speak of European security, they overlook the fact that without vibrant U.S. participation in NATO, NATO can fold its tents since it will be nonfunctional. It lacks the air lift, the armaments manufacturing capacity, most everything to sustain a war that will last more than a few days. By their present gathering, these leaders are setting the stage for a U.S. pull-out from NATO. They forget how the United States under any president, not just Donald J. Trump, reacts to defiance from allies. Just think back to 2003 when Germany, France and Belgium had the temerity to veto the U.S. drafted resolution before the UN Security Council approving the planned invasion of Iraq over alleged weapons of mass destruction. Within days, French wines were being poured out into the gutters, French fries were renamed ‘freedom fries’ and there was outrage and indignation across the land. No less will result from the stupid, pig-headed action of these European heads of government in London today. As for Keir Starmer, he must be the stupidest of the lot. When in Washington meeting with Donald Trump, he was offered a tariff free trade deal with the USA that his country has sought ever since Brexit. He failed to see that this was the deal: you get tariff free trade if you just shut up about Ukraine. But shut up this oaf could not do. As they say in Washington, there now will be consequences. On related news of the day, it appears that King Charles today gave an audience to his good friend Volodymyr Zelensky. And does he still expect Donald Trump to come calling for the state visit and private dinner with the King that Starmer delivered during his visit? -

China’s Imminent Invasion of Taiwan: A Global Catastrophe in the Making
I'm not so sure South American and African countries would cease trading with China. And I'm sure that Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, and Singapore would continue as though nothing had happened. The question is: does the US intervene and blockade/sink every cargo and tanker going to and from China? How much has Russia to China pipelines foreseen and prepared for this scenario? -

Thailand Intensifies Crackdown on Illegal Foreign Businesses
Police came to arrest some short term renters last night... interesting, indeed. That's just a couple of days after posters popped up all over the property that rentals below 30 days are illegal and carry a 1 year jail sentence or 20,000 THB penalty, or both.
