Ep 38: Poking the Dragon
Manage episode 337333735 series 2784828
Tensions have reached an unprecedented level as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made a visit to Taiwan despite warnings from mainland China. The visit has prompted live-fire military exercises that act as a rehearsal for a blockade and potential invasion of the island. The US continues to escalate further tensions with plans to sail a carrier strike group through the strait of Taiwan, an unprecedented provocation. The Gaza-Israel conflict reaches another flashpoint after the arrest and assassination of Palestinian resistance leaders. The West continues to send billions of dollars in weapons with little oversight, some estimates suggest that about a third of the intended weapons reach the frontlines.
