- Global Connectivity in Crisis: The Hidden Geo-Economic War in the Middle East

>> #Iran is not saying the #StraitOfHormuz is blocked. It’s blocked only to the hostile #Trump - #Epstein Syndicate – the #UnitedStates – and its minions trading in #petrodollars.
We have seen maritime lanes used in the #MiddleEast to filter ships under the Chinese flag before in the #RedSea near the #HornOfAfrica.
#China's interests in the maritime routes near #HornOfAfrica are tightly enmeshed with its #BeltAndRoadInitiative #BRI.
>> Talk about an in-depth systemic vision.
>> …the Chinese are treating economy, energy security, ecology, education, and health care as if they are organs of the same fit body.
And that body, metaphorically speaking, expands from #China to rest of #Asia, #Europe, #Africa, and #GlobalSouth — everywhere EXCEPT #NorthAmerica.
>> #StraitOfHormuz gambit with #Iran only allowing transit for oil tankers whose cargo has been settled in #petroyuan…only #yuan…
That is to establish #China as the new hegemon who has been laying physical infrastructure with its #BeltAndRoadInitiative all over the world EXCEPT North America. Yuan as the financial lifeblood of commerce is to complement the physical #BRI infrastructure.
Instead of the #US, the new hegemon for the region will be China

Ça me fait penser dans une bien moindre mesure à l'épisode cloudflare (dans le principe).
Et ça va surtout être un redoublement des efforts pour bypasser cette zone : #IMEC, #BRI, route du développement..

Attached: 4 images #geopolitique des #infrastructures 1/ #Israël : Canal Ben Gourion qui passe à gaza nord (ou très près), projet suivi de près par les américains et européens dans le cadre du projet IMEC, ça expliquerai peut-être en partie la position pro israélienne ? (voir description) #Turquie - #Irak : "nettoyage" des kurdes du PKK pour permettre la construction de la route du développement (voir description) #Chine : essaye de placer ses pions pour la nouvelle route de la soie Bref c'est vertigineux tous ces enjeux de pouvoir et guerres pour obtenir les profits gigantesques en contournant le #CanalDeSuez ..

>> #China's audacious #BeltAndRoadInitiative #BRI continues to fly under the radar in #US #CorporateMedia. In a conventional kinetic war, this will be China's decisive edge.
The above is a long thread of mine (just like the long quoted story below). We ignore China's long-term strategy only at our peril.
It is not just that #Trump is an arsonist.
This American #GOP self-sabotage has been going on since at least #GeorgeWBush, #Obama, AND #Biden.
