US Bombers Enter China’s Air Defense Zone in East China Sea
Two US B-1B Lancer bombers entered China's ADIZ after taking off from GuamOn Tuesday, the US sent two long-range bombers into China’s air defense identification zone (ADIZ), according to the flight monitor Aircraft Spots. The provocative flights took place while China was holding large naval exercises in the region.
According to Aircraft Spots, two US B-1B Lancer bombers took off from Anderson Air Force Base in Guam and entered China’s ADIZ over the East China Sea. The US regularly conducts surveillance flights in the region using military spy planes. Sending B-1B bombers close to China’s coast is likely a show of force meant to send a message to Beijing............

The American body politic is shuddering in the wake of this U.S. election. The discontents at our hyper-monetized, inequitable modernity are exploding. People feel crushed, with their humanity amputated:
I was born at the end of Gen X … and grew up in a middle class town. Life was good … Our home was modest, but we went on vacations, had 2 cars … I grew up thinking that being an American was the greatest gift … As an adult, I have witnessed the world I grew up in fall to ruin. I have watched as our currency and our economy have been shamelessly corrupted beyond redemption.
I have watched my blue collar husband get up at an ungodly hour every day and come home with an aching back that we pray will hold out long enough to get him to old age in one piece. Outside of shoes, socks and underwear, almost everything my family wears was bought used. We’ve been on one vacation in 12 years … We don’t have cell phones … We hardly ever eat out. What I just described is life on 60K a year without going into debt. We working stiffs are on our own. We will be working until we die, because the Social Security we’ve been forced to pay into, has also been robbed from under us.
I watched as my family’s health insurance was gutted and destroyed. I have watched as education, which was already sketchy when I was a kid, became an all-out joke of wholly unmathematical math, gold stars for all, and self-loathing anti-Americanism. My family has taken an enormous financial hit as I stay home to home school our child.
I’ve sat by and held my tongue as I was called deplorable and I’ve been called a racist and a xenophobe and a chump and even an “ugly folk.” I’ve been told that I have privilege, and that I have inherent bias because of my skin colour, and that my beloved husband and father are part of a horrible patriarchy. Not one goddamn bit of that is true, but if I dare say anything about it, it will be used as evidence of my racism and white fragility. And now I have watched as people who hate me and mine – and call for our destruction blatantly and openly stole the election and then gaslighted us – and told us that it was honest and fair.
I am done. Don’t ask me to pledge to the flag, or salute the troops, or shoot fireworks on the 4th. It’s a sick, twisted, heart-breaking joke, this bloated, unrecognizable corpse of a republic that once was ours.
I am not alone. Not sure how things continue to function when millions of citizens no longer feel any loyalty to, or from, the society they live in. I was raised to be a lady, and ladies don’t curse, but fu*k these mother**kers to hell and back, for what they’ve done to me, and mine, and my country. All we Joe Blow Americans ever wanted was a little patch of land to raise a family, a job to pay the bills, and at least some illusion of freedom, and even that was too much for these human parasites. They want it all, mind, body and soul. Damn them. Damn them all.
America shudders. This is not just ‘politics as usual’. This is not even about President Trump (albeit that most Blue supporters believe so). This is not even just about America. There are moments when – collectively, as well as individually – civilisations reach to a fork in the road. American and West European civilisation is at such a point. Two poles, the coastal élites and the American central heartland, are colliding and the sparks and twisted metal resulting from this head-on crash will be the heat that will forge Red American civilisation into a step-shift (whatever that may lead). The after-effects will shape America, and Europe too, where Euro-élites are often little more than simulacra of those U.S. ‘coastal élites’.......

The Huge New Trade Deal 'Western' Media Do Not Like To Talk About
Tomorrow a new trade agreement between 15 Asian states will be signed. It will soon be seen as a milestone in the global economic history. But only very few 'western' media have taken note of it or of the huge consequences the new agreement will have.
The agreement is also a huge victory for China over U.S. hegemony in Asia:
Fifteen Asia-Pacific nations including China and Japan plan to sign the world’s biggest free trade deal this weekend. The FTA will cut tariffs, strengthen supply chains with common rules of origin, and codify new e-commerce rules.The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is expected to be announced at the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit, which Vietnam is hosting virtually. It will involve the ten member states of the ASEAN bloc – Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam – as well as their trade partners Australia, China, Japan, New Zealand, and South Korea.
The new economic bloc will thus represent around a third of the world’s gross domestic product and population.
It will become the first-ever free trade agreement to include China, Japan, and South Korea – Asia’s first, second and fourth-largest economies.
The economies of the RCEP members are growing faster than the rest of the world. The agreement is likely to accelerate their growth......

What’s Not Being Said About the Pfizer Coronavirus Vaccine. “Human Guinea Pigs”?
The financial world went ballistic on November 9 when the pharma giant Pfizer and its German partner, BioNTech, announced in a company press release that it had developed a vaccine for Covid19 that was “90%” effective.
The controversial US head of NIAID, Tony Fauci (right) rushed to greet the news and the EU announced it had purchased 300 million doses of the costly new vaccine. If you believe financial markets, the pandemic is all but past history.
Suspicious events
However it seems Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, doesn’t share the confidence of his own claims. On the day his company issued its press release on the proposed vaccine trials, he sold 62% of his stock in Pfizer, making millions profit in the deal. He made the sell order in a special option in August so it would not appear as “insider selling”, however he also timed it just after the US elections and the mainstream media illegitimately declared Joe Biden President-elect. It seems from appearances that Bourla had a pretty clear conflict of interest in the timing of his press release on the same day.
Bourla lied and denied to the Press that his company had received any funds from the Trump Administration to develop the vaccine when it came out they contracted in summer to deliver 100 million doses to the US Government. Further adding to the suspect actions of Pfizer was the fact the company first informed the team of Joe biden rather than the relevant US government agencies.
But this is far from the only thing alarming about the much-hyped Pfizer announcement.....

The Global Capitalist Cage and the Corona Crisis: “Solutions” by Those Who Have Created “The Problems”
.........In the vastness of space and unimaginable span of geological time, our presence is small: smaller than a spec of dust on a whole planet. As conscious beings, we have created narratives and theories to explain what it means to be in this mysterious sea of matter and time. Such ideas are central to our social organization as well as how we relate ourselves to it. They very much affect how we perceive things as individuals and as collectives. Those ideas can take the shape of religion, history, ideology, tradition, myth and so on, constituting parts of the individual psyche as well as the collective psyche.
Those ideas are supposed to be promoted and perpetuated by the community members because they serve them by validating the given social order which serves their best interests. They are supposed to give us ways to reconcile with the unknown in collective manners, by which we find ways to accept the mystery of life with reverence and awe.
But do they?
As we are born into the social order, where those ideas are reinforced and physically manifest as social framework, we internalize those ideas, we become a part of the social mechanism and the ideas become “reality”.
But strictly speaking this “reality” is somewhat different from what is inherently real in a material sense. What we perceive as “reality” is our interpretation of matter which has been shaped by the imperatives of the social order.......

Scorched Earth: Ethnic Armenians Destroy Homes, Infrastructure Before Fleeing Azerbaijani Regions
Many ethnic Armenians who are fleeing the regions around Azerbaijan’s
breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh have opted to destroy their homes
after removing as much as they can carry. The destruction comes ahead of
a scheduled handover to Azerbaijan of territory seized by Armenians
during a war in the early 1990s...............

Israel, Armenia and the Death of Middle East Christianity
An ancient pre-Islamic nation suddenly overwhelmed on its ancestral
lands during Yom Kippur by an oil-rich Muslim regime deploying
state-of-the-art technology sounds like the stuff of Israeli nightmares.
Combine the kamikaze drones with swarms of jihadi fundamentalist
warriors scrawling swastikas on the abandoned vehicles of their defeated
enemies while graffitiing the names of past pogroms on the burnt out
ruins of the defeated people’s buildings as they liberate the “occupied
territories” and it looks like a Zionist Armageddon.
What sounds
like a prequel for a future apocalypse of the Jewish state is in fact
what has just happened to the three million Armenians of the Caucasus at
the hands of much bigger, richer and better armed Azerbaijan.
But Israelis ought to have qualms about what has just happened over the
last six weeks in the Caucasus mountains between Mount Ararat and Iran.
This is not so much because of the obvious analogies between Israel’s
occupation of Palestinian lands and the Syrian Golan Heights and the
Christian Armenians’ position in the mountainous Karabakh region of
Azerbaijan, nor because of the possibility that despite President
Trump’s much-trumpeted peace deals between Israel and certain oil-rich
Arab states could yet dissolve if the military balance between Jews and
Muslims was shifted as suddenly and decisively as between Christians and
Muslims in the Caucasus when oil wealth bought the Azeris’
attack-drones and skilled advisers to render obsolete overnight the
much-vaunted Armenian military advantage.
It was Israel’s
willingness to sell Halop drones, both kamikaze and loitering versions,
to Azerbaijan which put the Armenians on the ground at such a
disadvantage. Azerbaijan spent 60% by value of its defence procurement
budget on Israeli weaponry. In return the regime in Baku is the major
oil supplier to Israel which is still boycotted by most other Muslim
producers.....
