The Plot Sickens

They say, “Be careful what you wish for.” — but the alternative was far far worse. (US election)

Anyway, in a conversation with a China manufacturer, China (PRC) is of course experiencing issues with US policy and scaling back certain exports to the former US. US sanctions and tariff threats do not help, and are in fact incredibly stupid. But the US government as owned by Wall Street and its banks, has been incredibly stupid for many decades now.

In other news, the Iraq Oil Report writes that the pending Vile Empire attack on Iran could cause difficulty for Iraq in the oil market, where Iraq is already struggling to maintain adherence to OPEC+ output level reductions. Recall that under US domination Iraq produces 4M bbls per day, and some of that oil is diverted to Israel. Israel imports oil from the KRG, too (Kurdistan Regional Government) where the KRG hosts a Kapo State spy base near Erbil.

Complicating the Iraq issue is China. China technically runs Iraq’s oil service industry, while China is (overall) the largest importer of Iraq’s oil, importing over 1M bbls per day. That’s an unintended consequence for the failed and former US, regarding its invasion and occupation of Iraq on behalf of “Israel” which persists to this day. The US largely turns a blind eye to China’s import of Iraqi oil, but the situation is increasingly a sore point for the toxic detritus who pollute DC’s coup class, namely US State, aka the Deep State.

So, with the Russia-Iran partnership pending and alleged to be signed on or by January 17th,  just before the new US president attains executive power, that will truly launch a burr up the Deep State’s tush, when Iraq is figured into the mix, based on Iraq’s cordial ties with Iran where Iran is Iraq’s main trading partner.

That’s quite a shift from the bad old days when Israel and the west played Iran and Iraq against each other. Iran has also developed and/or obtained hypersonic missiles capable of defeating the Kapo State’s so-called “Iron Dome”, which we witnessed on October 1st, 2024.

So far, the great unknown is how Trump and his team will assess the above developments and events in western Asia, and how he’ll react to them. Trump’s ability to “make peace” anywhere will be greatly circumscribed by the garbage who actually rule the west, beside Wall Street, especially those who rule in Europe and Israel. If past performance is any indication of the future, Biden’s dementia and incompetence — surrounded by politicized excrement at all levels and not just in his own diapers – proves how insane and dangerous the political class in the failed, former, corrupt, and totally disgraced United States has become, and is.

Bottom line, the EU will continue to push their cash cow in the corrupt+ Ukraine (or what passes for the Ukraine) and Israel will push Trump to continue US support for Kiev as well. That’s because Israel does not want a freed-up Russia to leverage more support in favour of Iran, and possibly for Russia to draw Turkiye back into its influence, if Russia is seen to be successful in the SMO.

The foregoing will impose a lot of pressure on the Trump. Personally my assessment is that he can’t handle it. But we shall see. The US has been abjectly evil and corrupt for a long, long, long time. And such a perverse tiger as the US cannot change its stripes without the much-needed reckoning that will force it to. Either financially or militarily, or both.
