So this was confirmed by Hong Kao, the acting Navy Secretary, before the Senate committee on Thursday.
It has now been confirmed officially by the Pentagon of this, quote, pause fueling concern among lawmakers and Taiwanese officials for President Trump's support of the island nation as he juggles the Middle East war and the desire for detente with Beijing.
And the reason why that we are sitting with this, it is the single most important part
of this entire strategic defeat that we have now suffered with iran no matter which way the ceasefire goes this was the inevitable consequence and i think it was inevitable from day one but especially some two to three weeks into the conflict when we started to see the munitions began to dwindle it just became mathematically impossible
to seek a different solution.
And then second, Trump, by getting into this disastrous situation, by removing almost unilaterally himself some sort of military option on the table, reducing deterrence, you now have a situation where you have no choice but to seek detente with Beijing.
You genuinely don't.
You need Beijing to bail you out of this global crisis.
One of the reasons, and this is fascinating to me, one of the reasons why oil is only $100 a barrel, China is importing less oil today than it ever has in modern history.
and it is doing so as a favor to the global economy, saying, hey, we have a huge strategic petroleum reserve.
What we're going to do is we're going to import less, so we're going to keep the oil price down.
If they were importing at normal levels, it'd be $150 a barrel, something like that, based upon the analysis that I've seen, which means it would be $6 a gallon here in the United States.
You think that there's not some back and forth give and take between the United States?
It's obviously not just a gift to Trump.
It's a gift, really, to all of the other nations in Asia.
who are very reliant here on the U.S.
And what we're seeing here is that Taiwan is the tip of the spear because Taiwan, if you were to compare Taiwan and Israel, let's say one country now, as of this morning, just surpassed the entire GDP of India, Taiwan, India, all of Taiwan, just tiny little island nation based on semiconductors for all the electronics.
You know, it's been a reasonable ally over the years with the United States.
Israel,
causing problem after problem after problem after problem with the GDP of like, or bilateral trade between the US of like 50 something billion, which ranks along like Chile, right?
