Speaker Pelosi shows how the South Pacific should deal with an aggressive and bullying China : Comments

By Jeffrey Wall, published 5/8/2022

I'm not a fan of Pelosi but one has to admire how she is responding to the usual threats and bullying from China as a result of her visiting Taiwan with a congressional delegation.

It is being said that Pelosi has made Biden look weak, and Xi Jinping even weaker. The CCP actions right up to the Taiwanese exclusion zone just because of an old woman's visit are pathetically childish.

In the real world, as the Opinion Columnist in the New York Times castigated the 83 year old sinophobic megalomaniac, “against President Biden’s wishes, she will be doing something that is utterly reckless, , dangerous and irresponsible.”

Yes, agree with some reservation. It's all very well for Pelosi to show resolve when see is backed by the biggest most powerful military in the world, one that is nuclear capable and nuclear armed as we should be if we are to stand up to nuclear armed and nuclear capable, bullies!

China has no problem buying influence and subsequent control from cargo cult communities who have the for sale sign out and for virtual pennies. And that being so, only a question of time before China is on our doorstep with military bases and nuclear missiles!

As we prattle on about anything but the real issues like the ever increasing cost of energy, housing and food to name some. And as this occurs create an underclass that will see no valid reason to stand up to anyone, let alone fight for what they have here?

I wouldn't! Nor elect another (anti-nuclear) elbow led, China friendly, labor govt.

There's a solution to the "real" issues I've raised and that is that ultra rapid transition to, cheaper than coal and all the renewables, (1 cent PKWH) MSR thorium energy.

[See LFTR in five minutes on U tube.]

That can also be tasked with burning up nuclear waste other nations will pay us annual millions to take off their hands. And all but free, clean, safe as, carbon free energy for possibly thousands of years!

Will the elbow led, yackidy, yack, blah, blah, blah, (look good on on the international stage) labor party accept such a proposal? No, they will die in a ditch first?

Bugger my poor country!

Leslie,
At 83 she is nothing but a selfish old hag with nothing to lose hence her not giving a damn what harm she does for future generations. Hopefully, the Chinese can see that & just waive her aside like the old hag she is. The Chinese have too much cultural heritage & pride not to let the cow ruin it all just because she can no longer be around to stir crap !
With her & Biden gone soon thanks to natural attrition, things will improve !
Perhaps they should milk her venom so, at least a tiny bit of good could come from her.
