The state of economic affairs prompted Chinese Premier Li Keqiang
to call an urgent meeting of party officials across the country
last month to accelerate action towards returning the economy to
higher growth. “We must seize the time window and strive to bring
the economy back to the normal track,” Keqiang was reported to
have said."
So, are the Chinese going to stabilize their economy first and then invade, or are they going to invade with their economy collapsing?
I believe they will stabilize their economy via war. Nothing drives an economy like a war.

The national gas price average is about 40 cents away from breaking the all time record when adjusted for inflation.

And when exactly were gas prices that high? The summer of 2008. Right before the big crash.

I've got a very bad feeling about this. If this shit continues we're probably going to see a total meltdown occurring before the end of the year, perhaps even before the midterms.

It looks like they are going to try a controlled demolition, but the markets have responded in part positively after the 75 bps announcement. Weird.

Israel and Iran: Five minutes to Armageddon?
BY MARK TOTH, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR - 06/16/22 7:00 AM ET
https://thehill.com/opinion/national-se ... rmageddon/
Prepared or not, Israel and Washington both appear to be out of time — Iran’s threat is substantial, and it is only intensifying. Until now, Jerusalem’s “war between wars” covert approach against Iran was sufficient to tactically frustrate Tehran’s nuclear ambitions, largely via sabotage and assassinations of key Iranian nuclear physicists. It no longer is — not when HEU is 60 percent enriched. Measured in Doomsday Clock terms, it is five minutes to midnight in Jerusalem and Tehran — and in Megiddo, the historical biblical site of Armageddon in Israel.
Xi Jinping clears non-war use of army, raising fear of ‘special military operation’ in Taiwan

Chinese President Xi Jinping has signed a directive allowing for “non-war” uses of the military – raising concerns it could pave the way for an invasion of Taiwan that would be labelled a “special military operation” instead of a war, just as Russia has done in Ukraine.
