@ShitpostRock You just proved the point why racism exist…The Greek and Roman sculptors ideologies like the ones you stated are what facilitates racism and stereotypes
@FernandoLeanme@McFaul Saying they had no oil to sell is absurd. By the end of Maduro regime they were producing 820,000 Bpd. what department did you work in?
@FernandoLeanme@McFaul I think you’re missing the fact that Venezuela was severely sanctioned during Maduro regime and couldn’t export it’s own oil globally. It major buyer was china purchasing up to 70% of it output
@LamLaw1969@donaldsixeight@McFaul The IRGC produces it’s own ballistic missiles, they supply Yemen and even Russia with tons of them. Dude, Iran can take on more you even expect. Even with years of sanctions they still possess one of the largest stockpiles of long range ballistic missiles
@LamLaw1969@donaldsixeight@McFaul Not really. Iran literally has the world economy in choke hold. They control two vital choke points, even without foreign arms they will still have enough leverage to make the war really costly for the whole world. You can’t say you’re not feeling it already 😏
@LM18893267501@McFaul China had three major oil suppliers, Russia, Iran and Venezuela. Venezuela is practically being run by the United States, Russia is at war and Ukraine is hitting it oil refineries steadily, which leaves us with Iran, which is practically under siege
@LM18893267501@McFaul Regardless of China revolutionary shift to renewable energy, they still need a huge amount of oil supply to charge their economy because China has over 1 billion people and the second largest economy, you will require more than just renewable energy to sustain that economy
@LM18893267501@McFaul China was smart to do this because it learnt from Japan mistakes in WW2. In WW2 Japan was cut off of its oil supplies through a US embargo thus leading to the surprise attack on pearl harbor. If China stayed Idle it would lose the majority of it’s steady oil supplies
@donaldsixeight@McFaul China doesn’t want an escalation, they merely want the war to be too costly for the United states thus making them back off Iran
