Incoming Thai Government Vows Obedience to US Foreign Policy: Myanmar to be First Victim
กรุณาเปิดแคป ชั่นใน YouTube (CC) แล้วกดเลือกภาษาไทย (now with Thai subtitles)
- The incoming government in Thailand following general elections, funded and backed by the US for years, vows to adopt US foreign policy across the region, and specifically in regards to neighboring Myanmar;
- This includes Thailand adopting US Congress' "Burma Act" which funds "non-lethal aid" for anti-government militants in Myanmar;
- The US is waging a proxy terrorist campaign against China across Eurasia, including in Myanmar where US-backed militants have repeatedly attacked Belt and Road Initiative infrastructure including a pipeline earlier this month;
- Thailand’s new US-backed client regime is enlisting Thailand in this anti-China campaign despite China being Thailand’s largest trade partner, investor, source of tourism, infrastructure partner, and until recently, security partner;
- Just as Europe has destroyed its economy and future prospects by enlisting in Washington’s proxy war against Russia, Thailand, the Philippines, and perhaps soon other nations in Southeast Asia are doing likewise;

US Meddling in Thai Elections + NATO-Ukraine Actions Vindicate Russian Fears
I discuss with Garland Nixon the results of recent elections in Thailand heavily influenced by US meddling and the impact it will have on US-Chinese tensions.
We also discuss Ukraine's growing ties with NATO and how it justifies Russian fears of NATO encroachment all along its borders.

Bakhmut Folds: Russia Takes City + Ukraine's Struggle Against Toll of Attrition
Update on the conflict in Ukraine for May 22, 2023:
- Russian Ministry of Defense claims the Donbass city of Bakhmut/Artyomovsk has been fully taken by Russian forces;
- Western analysts claim the city’s capture will not “turn the tide” of the conflict, ignoring the war of attrition taking place superseding territorial advances;
- The US is sending another weapons package to Ukraine featuring an unspecified amount of ammunition for HIMARS, artillery systems, anti-tank weapons, and both bridging and logistics equipment;
- The US is also incrementally moving in favor of sending Ukraine F-16 fighter jets through third party nations in Europe. The F-16 represents no specific capability Ukraine’s own air force didn’t have before being removed from the battlefield;
- The Western media continues incrementally admitting the limits in military industrial output preventing the US and Europe from providing Ukraine with weapons and ammunition to match or exceed Russia’s military capabilities;

Russian Kinzhal Missile Strikes US Patriot System in Kiev + the Fundamental Disadvantage West Faces
Update on the conflict in Ukraine for May 17, 2023:
- Russia’s Ministry of Defense and US officials confirm Russian hypersonic Kinzhal missiles successfully targeted US-made Patriot air defense systems;
- Patriot systems launched approximately 30 missiles over 2 minutes, representing tens of millions of dollars of missiles that were already in short supply;
- Despite this, the Western media continues repeating obvious fabrications about Ukraine intercepting “all” incoming missiles and drones. The Patriot system falling victim to a Kinzhal missile despite firing upward to 30 missiles calls into question Ukraine’s previous claims of intercepting a Kinzhal days earlier;
- As Ukraine burns through Western weapons and ammunition, the West continues preparing to transfer other weapon systems including warplanes;
- European nations are preparing a “coalition” to purchase and provide F-16 fighters to Ukraine;
- F-16 warplanes have no specific capability beyond the aircraft that made up Ukraine’s original air force which is now mostly destroyed;

US Proxies Win Thai 2023 General Elections - Thai-Chinese Relations at Risk, Instability Looms…
US Proxies Win Thai 2023 General Elections - Thai-Chinese Relations at Risk, Instability Looms…
- US interference in Thailand’s media & information space, education system, and political system has reached critical mass, allowing US-sponsored opposition parties to sweep elections;
- so-called “pro-democracy” parties are led by corrupt billionaires including a convicted criminal and fugitive behind the worst human rights abuses in Thailand’s history;
- the US-backed opposition is openly anti-China, has called for canceling arms deals, infrastructure projects (including the high-speed railway), and rolling back ties with Beijing in favor of pivoting to the West;
- The West offers no alternatives to China’s tangible contributions to Thai and regional development as well as economic prosperity. Instead, the US offers increased involvement in regional affairs and “military cooperation” which equates to antagonizing China, the region’s most important economic player;
- the US is involved heavily in transforming Asia into a united front against China in the same self-destructive way it has transformed Europe into an anti-Russian block, serving US interests at the expense of the European people’s best interests;
- Thailand has suffered cycles of political instability similar to this before and prevailed, and could possibly prevail again. Efforts across multipolar institutions and blocs to aid nations like Thailand in uprooting US interference could help spare Thailand and the region from otherwise inevitable instability and violence;

US-funded Fronts Hijacking Upcoming Thai Elections
Thai elections will be an exercise in foreign-interference, not self-determination...
- Thailand’s general elections are slated for May 2023. However, rather than an exercise in self-determination, the elections are once again going to be an exercise in foreign interference;
- The US has invested heavily in not only opposition parties but also a massive network composed of legal, media, and political organizations funded by the US government through the National Endowment for Democracy (NED);
- US government-funded iLaw has been openly involved in supporting US-backed opposition groups and is now playing a growing role in the elections themselves;
- The goal is to not only install a client regime into power to reverse close and growing Thai-Chinese relations, but also to overwrite Thailand’s sovereign institutions with US-government funded proxies;

Russian Airpower Over Ukraine Increasing + More Shortcomings Appear Ahead Ukrainian Offensive
Update on conflict in Ukraine for April 23-24, 2023:
- Most of Bakhmut is now under Russian control;
- Ukraine & Western media report increasing use of precision-guided bombs by Russian military aviation;
- Russian bombing is increasingly effective owed to dwindling Ukrainian air defenses;
- Recent Ukraine Contact Group in Germany admit air defenses in Ukraine are a priority, fail to commit to any possible solution;
- US announces acceleration of its shipments of 31 M1-Abram tanks to Ukraine after a 10 week training course, less than half the training an entry-level US tank crew receives;
- Despite growing doubts of a Ukrainian offensive, it will likely unfold and may even have success in taking territory but will leave Ukraine at a further disadvantage in what is otherwise a war of attrition;
- Ukraine faces critical shortages in arms, ammunition, & trained manpower;
- US claims sanctions against Russia are “working,” yet data to substantiate that claim appears deliberately cherry-picked and taken out of context;

Ukraine's Offensive: Taking Territory vs. the War of Attrition
Update on the conflict in Ukraine for April 19, 2023
- Both Russia's and Ukraine's presidents visit front line troops in Kherson and the Donbass region respectively;
- Russian forces continue to gain ground in Bakhmut, pro-Ukrainian maps show the main rail station now under Russian control;
- Ukrainian general admits Russia carrying out airstrikes in Bakhmut further indicating an increasingly pivotal change in the nature of fighting in Russia's favor;
- Western analysis continues to paint a bleak picture regarding Ukraine's upcoming offensive, noting that even if it manages to succeed in taking territory, it does little to change the lopsided nature of what is actually a war of attrition Ukraine is losing;
- Former Western diplomats and military leaders have called for greater support for Ukraine, refusing to acknowledge the limits of Western military industrial output and Ukraine's ability to absorb weapon systems they are unfamiliar with;

Ukraine's Coming Offensive: Leaked NATO Plans + Lack of Arms
Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for April 9, 2023:
- US arms shipments have drastically dwindled, the majority of weapons pledged require contracts that will take weeks, months, even years to fulfill;
- The NYT admits arms shipments may not be adequate for the upcoming Ukrainian offensive expected to begin within 2-3 weeks;
- Leaked NATO plans regarding Ukraine may have been fabricated by NATO and leaked through authentic means to reinforce other ongoing deceptions;
- 2013 US government-funded polls regarding Crimea and Ukraine indicate that the nation was divided, many favored Russia or had affinity for Russia and the Russian language was at least as widely spoken nationwide as Ukrainian;

Thai Opposition Asks US to "Restore Democracy" in Thailand [do regime change]
กรุณาเปิดแคป ชั่นใน YouTube (CC) แล้วกดเลือกภาษาไทย
-Thai “human rights activist” Sirikan Chaloernsiri has called for the US to “seize this opportunity” and “restore democracy” in Thailand by ensuring the opposition takes power;
-Sirikan’s opposition group, Thai Lawyers for Human Rights has been funded since its creation in 2014 by the US government through the National Endowment for Democracy (NED);
-The NED funds the core opposition groups leading anti-government protests in Thailand since 2019 (the last Thai general elections) and seeks to install billionaire-led opposition parties into power to roll back Thai relations with China;
-Sirikan made her appeal on “Just Security,” a US-based website whose advisory board is chaired by US State Department employees including Avril Haines who oversaw torture and mass murder-by-drone during the Obama administration;
-The US doesn't seek to “restore democracy” in Southeast Asia, but instead to eliminate governments pursuing independent foreign policies, Sirikan and her “Thai Lawyers for Human Rights” consist of the “color revolution” template used to achieve this in Thailand;

US Forces Under Fire in Syria: Illegal Occupation Enters Dangerous Phase
- US engineered political unrest in Syria (and the rest of the Arab World) in 2011 after preparing opposition groups and militants years in advance;
- US intervened in Syria in 2014 to ensure armed proxies completed US-backed regime change;
- Russia's invitation by Syria in 2015 began irreversible defeat of US proxies;
- Today, US troops are increasingly isolated in eastern Syria as US weapons disappear in Ukraine or are stockpiled for coming war with China, and as Washington's regional allies work with Russia/China to resolve long-standing conflicts;
- The US cannot maintain proxy wars in Ukraine, Syria, and over the island province of Taiwan. It must choose and may not be able to sustain any at all;

Honduras Now Recognizes Beijing, Not US-backed Separatists on Taiwan
The Central American nation of Honduras has announced it no longer recognizes the Republic of China on the island province of Taiwan, and instead now recognizes the People's Republic of China in Beijing as the sole legitimate government of one China.
Honduras joins the vast majority of the world's nations including even the US, UK, EU, Japan, and Australia;
The UN also recognizes Taiwan as a province of China and the PRC as the sole legitimate government of China;
Even the ROC's own constitution recognizes Taiwan is an island province of China, and simply claims the ROC is the sole legitimate government over the entirety of China;
Only through US military and political support does the ROC on Taiwan maintain the illusion of "autonomy," and this US-sponsored separatism is at the root of US-Chinese tensions;
Were the ROC to declare the island province of Taiwan "independent," its economy would immediately collapse and would exist solely to host US troops menacing China ahead of major war;

Tactics, Arms & Ammo: What Will Shape Ukraine's Offensive & Impact its Aftermath
Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for March 27, 2023;
- Russian forces are not only encircling the fortified cities of Bakhmut and Avdeevka, it is increasingly utilizing its military aviation to bomb fortified positions;
- Increased use of Russian military aviation may indicate an irreversible deterioration of Ukrainian air defense networks and may continue to expand, accelerating the demilitarization of Ukraine;
- Ukraine's offensive may be directed toward the south or east, however, Russia has created extensive defense networks in both directions;
- Because of the West's dwindling stockpiles of weapons and ammunition, Ukraine's offensive, no matter how successful, will end with Ukraine unable to sustain military operations or maintain territorial gains;
- Russia bringing in older tanks and makeshift mobile gun platforms may be used to eliminate weaknesses in Russian defenses, saturating the battlefield with additional firepower to prevent Ukrainian forces from making it through zones of fire;
- Russian military industrial output is greater than Ukraine's Western sponsors, and therefore gives Russia the advantage in shaping the conflict after Ukraine's offensive ends;

West Surges Ammunition Ahead of Ukraine's All-Or-Nothing Offensive
Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for March 23, 2023:
- Russian forces continue encircling the fortified cities of Bakhmut and now Avdeevka, two major points along Ukraine's defense line in the Donbass;
- Ukraine is gearing up for its upcoming offensive, carrying out drone strikes on Crimea and reconnaissance by force along the line of contact in Zaporozhye;
- the stated goal of Ukraine according to Western reports is to cut the land-bridge between Crimea and the rest of Russia, though that would hardly isolate Crimea entirely;
- Ukraine would suffer immense losses, just as they did during the Kharkov /Kherson offensives last year, with the addition of many more Russian troops and extensive defensive works created months in advance;
- The US and EU are surging remaining stockpiles of artillery ammunition to Ukraine ahead of the offensive to sustain 2-4 months of intense fighting. Once depleted it will take years for the West to restore these stockpiles;
- Russian shell production appears to have exceeded Western output as early as 2014-2015 and has continuously increased since meaning Russia's ability to regenerate combat power exceeds the West's at this moment;
- Ukraine's upcoming offensive should not be underestimated nor the prospects of a breakthrough, Russian forces have repeatedly demonstrated a preference for withdrawing over being encircled or suffering heavy casualties as part of its attrition strategy;

The Hidden Proxy War Washington Wages against China
How a US delisted terror organization still threatens China...
As US-Chinese tensions rise ahead of a feared conflict, it should be noted that the US has been waging a violent proxy war against China both within its borders and along them for years.
This includes direct and indirect support for terrorist organizations including the East Turkistan Islamic Movement (ETIM). Despite admittedly being a terrorist organization, the US delisted it from its FTO list, allowing support to flow to the group.

Avdeevka Encirclement + US Prepares Ukraine for "Last Chance" Offensive, Surging Ammunition
Update on Russian military operations for March 20, 2023:
- Russian forces are not only encircling the fortified city of Bakhmut, but now also apparently Avdiivka;
- Both cities are heavily fortified positions along Ukraine’s main defense line in the Donbass region and their encirclement will compromise the entire defense line;
- Western media continues admitting critical shortages of Ukrainian manpower, weapons, and ammunition;
- As Ukraine is preparing for its spring offensive, the US and its allies are likely utilizing emergency stockpiles to surge the amount of artillery and rocket ammunition to Ukraine in amounts much higher than have recently been transferred;
- This surge is a one-time possibility after which Western stockpiles will be exhausted and future shipments will depend mainly on monthly ammunition production which and will be for several years unable to match or exceed Russian ammunition supplies;
- Ukraine is being forced to organize a massive offensive using poorly trained troops operating equipment they are unfamiliar with against Russian forces who have been preparing to meet this offensive months in advance;
- Ukrainian forces could once again compel Russian forces into withdrawals but will suffer immense losses before facing counteroffensives comprised of 350k Russian reservists;

Washington's Downed Drone + Growing Admissions of Ukraine's Military Deterioration
Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for March 16, 2023:
- Russian warplanes intercepted and apparently clipped the propeller of a US MQ-9 drone carrying out surveillance near Crimea;
- The US has no means of recovering the drone, though Russia may have an opportunity to recover it;
- While the drone operated in international airspace according to the US, it was collecting intelligence on behalf of Ukraine as part of ongoing hostilities, as a party of the conflict and thus threatening Russian national security;
- Bakhmut continues to face encirclement;
- The Western media has begun admitting to the grim deterioration of Ukraine’s forces under the weight of Russia’s strategy of attrition;
- Ukraine has lost the majority of troops trained by NATO over the last 8-9 years;
- Ongoing NATO training is rushed, incapable of meeting or exceeding Russia’s pool of trained manpower;
- Ammunition and weapons are also admittedly running out;
- Ukraine may or may not be diverting reserves for an upcoming spring offensive to instead fight in Bakhmut;
- Any possible counteroffensive around Bakhmut might indicate just how badly deteriorated Ukraine’s forces have become;

US Meddling in Thai Elections: Seek to Create a Hostile Anti-China Proxy
กรุณาเปิดแคป ชั่นใน YouTube (CC) แล้วกดเลือกภาษาไทย
Thailand plans elections for May 2023. Because Thailand's close & growing relations with China, the US seeks to interfere and install an anti-China client regime into power.
Just as the US destroyed peace & prosperity in Europe through similar interference, it has targeted all of Southeast Asia in a bid to press nations into service for its conflict with China.
