  • So the CIA funds the Mujahideen, the Taliban and Al Qaeda. That leads to ISIS and Al Nusra.

    At times we arm any of these groups to fight whoever we want. Now ISIS has outlived their usefulness and we’re trying to get rid of them by using our chosen winner, who we’ve legitimized by declaring them as the true government of Syria.

    Remember that Syria doesn’t have a government. It’s currently run by multiple factions who are being played off each other and fighting each other. There has been no election to decide leadership and if the current declared leadership fails to protect US/Israeli interests they’ll be killed, and then replaced with the next guy.


  • This will slow the offshoring from China to other countries, but will also disincentivize new production and foreign investment in China. Longterm China will have to deal with a more competitive economic environment, but for now it’s protecting its advantage.

    Moving production abroad is difficult considering the supply chains China has meticulously built over the past 3 decades. There are some metal ores for which the Chinese are the sole processors. They have a monopoly on them and no industry can go around that without building their own processing infrastructure (a costly business that is already perfected in China).
