Chairman Xi of the People’s Republic of China is moving to prepare his forces to expand into land areas all around her.  A new land boundary law, coupled with new types of military training focus are leaving many of China’s neighbors wondering if they’re next in China’s efforts to expand her territory and take resources from her direct neighbors, as opposed to the colonization method of harvesting resources from her distant neighbors (Africa, looking hard at you, my friend).

As the Beijing Olympics are being prepared, China appears to be preparing for something quite opposite to world peace, even as she brutalizes her own people from within she hopes to extend that same authority over the lives of hundreds of millions of humans living just outside their hungry borders.

China’s new land boundary law fits in with its expansionism

…..Another factor, a Training Mobilisation Order (TMO) issued by Xi Jinping in January 2020 called for “confrontational training” for its troops and officers to assess their preparedness, especially in light of the new reforms undertaken by the PLA. Both these factors seem to be the tactical beginnings of China’s grand strategy which also saw China flexing in the South China Sea and Taiwan, almost simultaneously. The latest in the series of aggressive Chinese actions is the use of lawfare through the passing of the “Land Boundary Law” on October 21 which became effective this week.

The law formalises and legalises China’s geographic creep towards Tawang, Arunachal Pradesh and parts of eastern Ladakh and creates conditions for using newly-constructed border villages close to the LAC for claiming sovereignty over disputed areas. The import of the law is most critical for India but will affect China’s disputes with other countries too. What China has done, therefore, is convert a territory dispute over borders into a sovereignty dispute which precludes any give or take of territory.

A Farmer from Turkey is using VR Headsets to help his cows feel better about their lives as they stand in their stalls ready to give milk to the squeezer or the pumper.  The cows wear VR headsets that makes them think they’re in a wonderful pasture.  The plan is to get the cows to relax to be more milk-giving for the squeezer or the pumper, and, so far, it seems to be working.

Farmer Puts VR Headsets on Cows to Simulate Green Pastures : Futurology

From futurism.com

Excerpt:

 

A farmer in Turkey says he’s purchased VR headsets for his cows so they’ll produce more milk and be less anxious.

On its face, a giant barn full of cows with headsets strapped to their furry faces to increase profitability seems pretty dystopian — but as Turkish news outlet Anadolu Ajansi reported this week, it does seem to be working.

“We get an average of 22 liters of milk per day from the cows in our farm,” Izzet Kocak said in the video, translated into English. “The milk average of the two cows [that] wore virtual reality glasses was up to 27 liters.”

China Will Allow Religious Freedom that Affir

Chairman Xi used his nation-state’s New Years Eve address to attempt to placate the world that China is a tolerant state and not grossly violating the rights of its own citizens and anyone else, especially the Uighurs, that live inside its borders.
In the address, Chairman Xi expressed tolerance for different religions and beliefs so long as all of them echoed the most important truth to the people of China, the critical necessity of the party and the state in fulfilling their lives, no matter what ‘path’ that might be.
It’s called Cultural Nationalism, and it demands that every belief system essentially echo the beliefs of the Chinese Communist Party. Jesus becomes a Socialist parable about how to sacrifice yourself to the people, represented by the state, crystalized in the leadership and semi-divinity of Chairman Xi.

Jinping’s fallback on cultural nationalism

Excerpt:

 

In his New Year message to the nation, Chinese President Xi Jinping carried forward the process of what has aptly been called ‘Sinicization of Marxism.’ He referred to the ‘great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation’ in progress and particularly appreciated the youth who have pledged to the Party ‘to make their country strong’ and ‘save their pure true love for the motherland.’

He talked of the historical convergence of the two centenary goals in the year gone by – realisation of a ‘moderately progressive society in all respects after eliminating extreme poverty’ on one hand, and launch of the mission of ‘building a modern Socialist country for great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation’ on the other – crediting the Chinese Communist Party (CPC) for both.

Stating that this progress is not going to be easy, Xi struck a note on cultural moorings of Chinese nationalism by referring to Yellow River and the Yangtze River as the two ‘mother rivers of the Chinese nation’ and reaching out to ‘our compatriots overseas’ to compliment them for working so hard.

At the same time, religious affairs in China have been put under stricter watch since 2015 when Sinicization was introduced. Over the years, religious beliefs have attracted party control – they have been pushed towards ‘alignment with Chinese culture’ and rejection of foreign influence.

Importantly, it is against the backdrop of accusations of repression in China on Muslims, Christians and Tibetan Buddhists that Xi Jinping addressed a national conference on ‘work related to religious affairs’ held at Beijing in early December and highlighted the need for religions ‘to adapt to Socialist society in the Chinese context.’

He made a significant observation that ‘while freedom of belief was to be fully implemented,’ religion should act as the bridge connecting ‘Party and the Government’ with the people and enjoined upon religious personages and believers to enhance the recognition of ‘motherland, Chinese nation, Chinese…

In a world’s first, a drone in Sweden was able to deliver life-saving equipment, a portable defibulator, in lighting-fast time, saving the life of a 71-year old man who had just suffered a heart attack.

Excerpt:

The world unique achievement took place in Trollhättan, Sweden in December 2021, when an Everdrone autonomous drone delivered a defibrillator that helped save the life of a 71-year-old man.

The Emergency Medical Aerial Delivery service (EMADE), developed by Gothenburg-based company Everdrone, was put to the toughest of tests on the morning of 9th December 2021. In the Swedish city of Trollhättan, a 71-year-old man was shovelling snow in his driveway when he suffered an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Thanks to the combination of an immediate emergency call, the quick actions of Dr. Mustafa Ali and the swift delivery of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), lifesaving measures through defibrillation could be initiated before the arrival of the ambulance. The time from the alarm until the AED was safely delivered at the doorstep of the incident address was just over three minutes. After the initial treatment on site, the patient was rushed to the hospital and is today fully recovered.

Worldwide, the offices of the International Olympic Committee and Corporate Sponsors of the Beijing Olympics are being met with angry protestors who don’t believe a country that so egregiously violates the basic rights of its citizens should not be hosting a celebration of world peace through sport that the Olympics represents.

With the Beijing Winter Olympics less than one month away, activists have seized the moment to spotlight China’s human rights violations and corporate complicity in said violations. On Tuesday, Tibetan and Uyghur activists from several human rights organizations held protests in dozens of cities around the world as part of a Global Day of Action to demand an Olympic boycott. In the run-up to the Olympic opening ceremony, scheduled for February 4, the Chinese government and its critics seem likely to continue competing for control of the narrative, as global condemnation persists

Rising anger with Turkey drives calls for reunification in crisis-hit northern Cyprus | Cyprus

From www.theguardian.com
2022-01-09 10:00:00

Excerpt:

In his sun-filled office in north Nicosia, Şener Elcil is plotting his next protest. Anger, he says, is in the air in Turkish-occupied northern Cyprus.

The economy is in freefall, thanks to the self-declared republic’s financial and political dependence on Turkey. Thousands have taken to the streets, spurred by inflation rates that have left many struggling to make ends meet; ahead of parliamentary polls later this month, calls for a boycott are mounting, while a blacklist of Turkish Cypriot dissidents, reportedly drawn up at the behest of Ankara, has spawned consternation and fear.

“Turkey is our biggest problem,” says Elcil, who heads the Turkish Cypriot teachers’ union and is a vocal proponent of reunification of the war-divided island under a federal umbrella with the Greek-run south. “It should keep its hands off Cyprus and take its lira and go away.”

US Warns Russia Of Risk Of “Confrontation” Ahead Of Ukraine Talks

Excerpt:

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Sunday said Russia had to choose between dialogue and confrontation, ahead of talks in Geneva on soaring tensions over Ukraine.

“There’s a path of dialogue and diplomacy to try to resolve some of these differences and avoid a confrontation,” Blinken told CNN’s “State of the Union” show.

“The other path is confrontation and massive consequences for Russia if it renews its aggression on Ukraine. We are about to test the proposition about which path President Putin is prepared to take.”

Vladimir Putin’s government has reportedly massed tens of thousands of military troops along Russia’s border with Ukraine, drawing Washington into a Cold War-style stand-off.

Iran Navy Port Emerges as Key to Alleged Weapons Smuggling to Yemen, U.N. Report Says

From www.wsj.com
2022-01-09 11:51:00

Excerpt:

 

Thousands of rocket launchers, machine guns, sniper rifles and other weapons seized in the Arabian Sea by the U.S. Navy in recent months likely originated from a single port in Iran, according to a confidential United Nations report that provides some of the most detailed evidence that Tehran is exporting arms to Yemen and elsewhere.

The draft report prepared by a U.N. Security Council panel of experts on Yemen said small wooden boats and overland transport were used in attempts to smuggle weapons made in Russia, China and Iran along routes to Yemen that the U.S. has tried for years to shut down. The boats left from the Iranian port of Jask on the Sea of Oman, the U.N. report said, citing interviews with the boat’s Yemeni crews and data from navigational instruments found on board.

Iran has diplomatically supported the Houthis in their conflict in Yemen and abroad against targets in Saudi Arabia and the Red Sea, but has long denied providing the group with arms….
