As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.

You missed the start of the world war, in all the cover footage of nuclear warfare. Dictator Biden accomplished it with a simple act, and the entire war footing shifted from Ukraine to Taiwan.

China's new generation of military challenges to the United States on earth and space are now one shot wonders.

Over the weekend, we cited Rhodium Group China expert Jordan Schneider -- whose blog, China Talk, can be found here, outlined Biden's new chip export controls and other restrictions are a massive blow to "CCP's science and technology ambitions." He continued:
Long story short, every advanced node semiconductor company is currently facing comprehensive supply cut-off, resignations from all American staff, and immediate operations paralysis.
This is what annihilation looks like: China's semiconductor manufacturing industry was reduced to zero overnight. Complete collapse. No chance of survival.
The Biden administration's technological decoupling appears to be hitting China's bottom line. This escalation could hinder the country's rise as a great power. Why? Because it could have far more significant economic impacts than just the word "semiconductor."
These advanced chips are used in fifth-generation fighter jets, hypersonic missile development, stealth drones, nuclear weapons, and all other sorts of intelligent war machines and may undercut China's goal of dominating global artificial intelligence by the end of the decade.

Russia still has it's one shot wonders in the ICBM nuclear arsenal. That clock is now ticking though as there is only so much warfare the Bush family suckered Russia into in technological shock and awe with reduced highly mobile forces.

Dictator Biden is mirroring another American dictator, the vile Frank Roosevelt. In Roosevelt's time he unleashed sanctions on Imperial Japan, just as the cartel leadership of America has been targeting the Russians.

For Japan, it was oil that drove the Japanese to Pearl Harbor.

Congress passed the National Defense Act, authorizing Roosevelt to ban or restrict the export of resources necessary for national defense. Roosevelt promptly banned shipments to Japan of high-octane aviation gas, certain categories of steel and scrap iron, and other items. By July 1, 1941, the list of proscribed items had grown so much that the economic war was in full swing. Still, Roosevelt resisted a total ban of the one item he knew was the “noose around Japan’s neck” – crude oil.

It was that “southern strategy” that would prove to be the tipping point. On July 2, 1941, in an Imperial Council meeting led by Prime Minister Prince Fumimaro Konoye, cabinet ministers and senior military leaders discussed Japan’s next move. Konoye got straight to the point, saying, “I believe that it is most urgent for our Empire to decide quickly what policies it should adopt in view of the present world situation.”
The subject on the table was the proposed southern strategy: the occupation of military bases in the French colony of Indo-China, administered by Germany’s ally, Vichy France. This would give Japan a base of operations enabling it to strike at all points of the compass: south at the oil rich Dutch East Indies colony and the British base at Singapore, west to Thailand, Burma and India, north to China and the British base at Hong Kong, and east to the Philippines, then an American protectorate.

For Russia and China the board is not about oil. Russia has oil and therefore China has oil. The threat both Russia and China now face is their computer chip problem, which means their technological security is in jeopardy. They have spent billions on matching US technology which was given to them (they thought they stole it) and without computer chips it is all worthless junk.

Defect rate of Chinese chips shipped to Russia surged to 40 per cent after Western sanctions, local newspaper says

So enters Taiwan, the necessary element in the immediate survival of Russia and China. They both heed Taiwan as Russia will be dead by 2030 when their advanced chip plants come online. This then prioritizes a move by China with Russian backing to take Taiwan by force, without destroying the chip making industry.

Historically Japan lost the war when it was unable to drive Americans from the Pacific which jeopardized their supply as.the United States used submarines to starve Japan.
For Germany, their failure to starve England is what lost them the war.

Germany and Japan both were oil dependent just as Russia and China are computer chip dependent. The clock is ticking on both Russia and China, as it was for Germany and Japan.

Their entire BRICS order will come crashing down in finance, oil, satellites and munitions if they do not secure microchips of the advanced order in the next year. This is brilliant cartel strategy as they have moved the war to expendable Taiwan. Russia and China will both have to be careful to not destroy the chip industry. The United Cartel of States does not have to be careful. If the Russians and Chinese seize these chip industries. sabotage and long range missiles will turn the chips into ashes. There will not be a direct need to prosecute the war to the nuclear threshold, as attrition will defeat the Russians and Chinese without nukes going off.

Russia will have to invade Europe conventionally in this scenario. China must take Tawian, South Korea, blockade Japan, and seize US oil in Alaska to both cripple American markets and to deny Japan oil which will force Japan to come to terms.
