The INSANE Plan to Bait China: Push Japan, Philippines Into WAR | Profs. S. Weigelin-S. & W. Powell

Originally published on 8 September 2024.
While NATO has been demilitarised in the Ukraine Proxy-War and the US is already bogged down in yet another theatre of war in West Asia, the neocons won't give up on their biggest obsession; the great Showdown-War with China. Of course, this will be yet another proxy-war. After all, the Empire has learned to devastate not only its enemies but also its allies—binding them economically to the US mother-land for yet another couple of decades through debt traps and US corporate ownership.

But what exactly is Beijing's approach in all of this? China isn't sitting back and relaxing while the US preps its Asia War. In this episode I'm talking to two great Sinologists: Professor Dr.Susanne Weigelin-Schwiedrzik, from the University of Vienna and Professor Warwick Powell of Queensland University. Together we explore how Beijing is approaching the new multipolarity and the relentless provocations from across the Pacific.

Unfortunately, neocon insanity and lust for blood knows no limits and the peoples captured the neocon narrative are willing to go along. Just as Ukraine was. Hence the European playbook is being tweaked to fit the Asian case. While the US is trying everything to prepare its China Proxy-War, the question is where will it happen? On the islands of Taiwan, Japan, or the Philippines? Who will be the first to get caught in an escalatory spiral ending in bombs and devastation? While Taiwan looks the most likely, it might just as well be the Philippines where some "damned foolish thing" will push East Asia over the brink and into the chaos the Neocons love so much.
