In this witch hunt McCarthyist environment of modern America, it would be likely for the USG to try to Indict Maverick.

david p Goldman of Asia times, aka the Spengler had a good interview recently, where what struck out to me is that the Western manufacturers like in Germany have no choice but to go to China, for its market or for its factories, and that the greens, basically a CIA front, have relegated themselves to a dead end.
but to be clear, Goldman is no sinophile, he wants the west to have what China has, But to his credit, Goldman is somewhat objective, as belies his training in asset managemen.

The 787 plant is in South Carolina because it is an at-will working state and to avoid the worker unions in Washington state.
The whole point is to pay workers crappy salaries. And the factory is known for its shoddy workmanship.

I remember reading about the S Carolina plant also had serious QA issues, it was so bad that some airlines even refuse taking delivery of 787s assembled there or specify in the contract for Everett assembled planes only.

Knowing the way the West works, the USG is probably relying on american businesspeople as backchannels to speak to the CPC.


Re the historic flight by COMAC, look at who was on board:

All those VIPs, really shows the level of trust in Chinese engineering and workmanship. Little by little, sector by sector, the white anglo monopoly of high technology will be turned over to the Chinese.

Kiev regime behind terrorist attack against Moscow – MOD​

Tuesday morning’s drone attack on Moscow, which hit several buildings, was orchestrated by Ukraine, the Russian Defense Ministry has said.

“The Kiev regime launched a terrorist attack with unmanned aerial vehicles on targets in the city of Moscow,” a statement from the ministry said. The raid involved eight aircraft-type UAVs, all of which were hit; three drones that were suppressed by electronic warfare measures went out of control and deviated from their intended targets, the statement added.

The remaining five drones were shot down by a Pantsir-S air defense system operating outside of Moscow, according to the MOD.

The attack was first reported by Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin, who said on Tuesday morning that the drone raid resulted in several buildings in the Russian capital sustaining minor damage, with residents in the area temporarily evacuated. He noted that no one was seriously hurt in the attack, with only two people seeking medical assistance at the scene.

I will give it few years to see the size and versatility of C919 project.
It is not shown in the the pics buts Japanese Toray and Teijin plays important role in supplying to B787 and these have plants in US.
Aerospace is very manpower intensive relative to revenue it generates. Aerospace is measurement of strength of demographics and wealth of society. B787 fully consolidate around South Carolina its impact is creating Jobs at rate of eight times over state avg with much more pay. This a state with one of the largest BMW plant in the world.

The largest market for Mercedes and BMW is in China. You just have to get used to it. They produce the largest number of cars in China.

Hilarious moment when a cutout of the CIA, the NED, insists it is not a part of the CIA and being quoted on by the founders of NED, that it is indeed, a cutout of the CIA.
