State collapse is inevitable when a society’s leaders are insulated from the negative consequences of their bad decisions.

The shakeup continues. I am waiting for Britain and/or Germany to close their territory to operations against Iran. It won’t take much more of Trump’s big mouth to make that happen. Either one of those counties taking that action will completely break the air bridge to Europe and points east for the US military. You cannot even bomb Iran from B-2 bases in Missouri (as stupid a concept if ever there was one), without tankers and bases enroute to refuel the bombers.
On a related note, The USS George HW Bush CBG is moving to the Arabian Sea by the long way around the Cape of Good Hope and not by the much faster Med/Suez/Red Sea route. You will recall that she was deployed early to relieve the failed USS G.R. Ford which had potty problems and a little 30 hour laundry fire in the Red Sea. USNI more or less spells out that “doing laundry” in the Red Sea is not safe for the USN as the reason for taking this route, which is obvious to everyone else without explanation anyway. The illusion of US military dominance is melting away faster than April snowfall.
Fourth Turnings are puncuated with giant shifts in the status quo. I believe we are seeing one start in earnest (the pressure has been building).
Watch China. Watch Russia. Ascendant powers are the ones that make the big moves, declining powers make mistakes the others take advantage of.
Taiwan is gone, you can bet on it.
Joe: Taiwan is not gone in the sense of an invasion. There will be a very profitable deal cut between the Taiwanese and TPTB on the mainland. I cannot see Chinamen killing other Chinamen so the American Mall Zombies can have cheap iPhones and other electronic pacifiers.
During the Korean War, when the Communist take-over of Mainland China had just happened, the bitterness among the Nationalists on Taiwan was fresh. Yet, when that arrogant fool MacArthur pressed clear to the Yalu and had his ass handed to him by massed Communist Chinese Armies, a certain Captain Weh, of the Nationalist Army made this statement: “The Americans are being beaten by Chinese!” -H/T to T.R. Fahrenbach.
So, the long game is in China’s favor. They know how stupid the American voters are and how American politicians are easily corrupted. All they have to do is wait for our economy to go full Weimar and Trump to be impeached. Then they will be in the driver’s seat. Bleib ubrig.
As an Italian citizen Meloni is a fraud and a whore of the WEF and the globalist European cabal. She is in deep trouble when she comes up for election because she has allowed Muslim terrorists into Italy unabated . The Italian people are fed up with her Eurocentric bull shit out of Brussels and the Muslim rape gangs continuing raping and murdering of Italian young girls as well as older women. The only good Muslim is a dead Muslim.
