Written before fall of Damascus, but prescient.

Maybe still unclear what happens to Allawite region.

Despite funding the coup, Israel/US influence over power may be limited other than funding an invasion of Lebanon, though still not a stable without longterm blowback operation.

Turkey/Islamist control may still be as willing to cooperate with Russia/Iran as the US. But author's supposition of separating middle east into Sunni Jihadist and Israel rule is most likely. US does not have kingmaker power as it did in Iraq.

Romania elections annulled, because court didn't like result. infinite US/EU influence allowed, but it failed. NATO sucks.

However, petrified that Trump may turn his back on the war, there is a school of thought in Europe that they could offer something interesting to incentivise him other than the carrot of Ukraine’s vast stores of critical minerals that Americans lack — eg., more trading incentives for America; greater spending on NATO; more pressure on Iran; “peacekeeping boots on the ground” inside Ukraine; help in Trump’s upcoming economic skirmishes with China and so on.

and US volunteering their sycophancy under similar lines: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atlanticist/how-europe-can-save-nato/

Ukraine was always a primarily a war on subjugating Europe. Energy focused as usual.

Trump will be a pivot point on this "US subjugation wet dream" ambition. EU spine at stake.

While using language meant to confirm audience bias that Russia provoked this war, still a strong case for West and Ukraine to end it.

Historian, fairly comprehensive review, despite western propaganda views on Russia's economy.

Not addressed is that DNC is an Israel First supremacist fundraising organization who plays opposition party in US politics. Just because they take up secondary causes of helping more Americans, doesn't mean they will get in the way of the Israel first rule over the US.

DNC elections/reforms will happen next, and odds are more of the same, but they can't have volunteers, turnout, or out demonize republicans to get the sweet zionist funding, and media domination, without turning against Israel, and media supporting the genocidal maximalists.

  1. Proves China credit worthiness as good as US.

  2. KSA is sending its excess US $ to China which can either buy oil from KSA (declining imports overall), or other resources from global south, which might buy KSA oil with $.

While the scheme permits more economic activity outside of US influence, all financial $ eventually are deposited to US financial system. The paper implies reduced debt/dependence by global south.

With this successful bond auction, bonds for China exports becomes easier and likely to much of the world.
