[@Phearsum]

@@thomasdriggers759 There's actually more math and science suggesting intelligent design than there is against it. Actually there isn't any scientific evidence that indicates a lack of God. You think people haven't tried for hundreds of years now? The most advanced mathematics we have (Quantum Physics) all suggest intelligent design. Some extremely high level intellectuals consider this entire reality to be a simulation. Because the same patterns and ratios exist in all observable matter. And that is not an accident. It cannot be. It is mathematically impossible. Basically a 1/100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 chance this wasn't designed down to the last atom. I pose the simple question. Designed by what? _The answer becomes simple._ God is very real. Realer than the reality you experience. Don't be decieved by your senses. When you die that veil will be ripped away, whether you are ready or not. The gentlemen above me told you to "prove it", but I'm telling you as a fact that you cannot. Because all the evidence points to a creator. It doesn't confirm any religion as correct. But it definitely confirms our reality was designed, and whatever did it, we exist at it's mercy when we die. We know the conscience procedes death, but we don't know where it goes. Basically what I'm saying is, aside from what happens when we die, and who is in control of that, there's solid evidence for everything else. Ignorance is bliss, but blasphemy is unacceptable. The universe is a beautiful thing when you take our impact on it away. How dare you deny it's creator exists. 🖕

Kim is like your little brother: he knows that jumping out from behind the door will only startle you a few times before you just roll your eyes and say “oh, it’s you.” So he has to change tactics to scare you… he hides in the shower, or in your back seat. Eventually, jump scares just don’t work so he pretends to grab the wheel while you are driving. And then you end up driving off the road and killing both of you. When you get to the afterlife, he explains he wasn’t serious.

Why does everyone assume a 2nd Korean War would happen in a bubble? The likelihood of this going down in conjunction with Beijing trying to take Taiwan are very high.

[@Hyperlingualism]

This channel released a video last week about how new intelligence reveals that an invasion of Taiwan might be impossible now. Even despite that, it's also much more predictable. Take Russia's war with Ukraine: two weeks before we could see exactly what equipment is being moved out of which bases and setting up outside of borders just from GPS, you can spot every ship movement. Big nations going to large scale war isn't something you can hide nowadays. The build up needed to invade Taiwan would be much slower and much more noticeable than that. If they were preparing to invade, you'd know.

On what logic? If China strikes first then I'd agree the likelihood of Kim moving in is high, but if it's Kim who fires the first shot, I suspect Beijing would rather have the US ensure there's a buffer zone remaining between them and SK afterwards but otherwise leave him to himself; the cost of a potential US blockade just because their pet decided to bit rather than bark is too high, and it's not as if the theaters would be too far apart.

@@ravenlordgoat2157 If you watched the video, the essay that's being referenced stated that North Korea has a 'use it or lose it' policy for its nuclear weapons, pretty much it states that North Korea is likely to use nuclear weapons on cities, military bases and American military bases in South Korea, Japan and Guam within the first hours of a conflict. Its all well and good saying that the US has an mutual defence agreement with South Korea, but the point is that this has never been tested. If North Korea were to hit this hard initially, then it might be likely the US will simply decide to abandon South Korea. Its just like NATO, the treaty exists, but it isn't a video game where its guaranteed countries will go to war in support of the attacked because of it. There is also a reason why all of this is happening now, in 2024, Israel, Ukraine, talks of Russian attacks on the Suwalki Gap, Iran and now North Korea and likely China too. 2024 is a global election year, and from current analysis of the political scenario it seems likely Donald Trump will win in the US. Donald Trump is ultimately a populist politician and the populist opinion is of America First and a new isolationism. Trump has already stated that he is looking to pull the US out of NATO if he is victorious. With this sort of rhetoric, it seems that 2024 and 2025 will be the opportune time for the Western World Order to be undermined, or as Trump has talked about with abandoning NATO, completely destroyed.

On the issue of North Korea, Kim will wait for China to make it's move on Taiwan before he does anything rash. As for the Houthi's you can almost guarantee the U.S already has special forces on the ground in Yemen. The U.S is likely reticent to crush them in one operation in order to avoid a wider conflict with Iran since they are currently dealing with the proxy war in Ukraine while also trying to counter China in the Pacific. One thing anti-western nations would do well to remember is that they aren't just dealing with the U.S. If a major war breaks out, they are also dealing with NATO and potentially other nations like India (specifically in the case of a conflict with China).

Thank you for this informative if somewhat disturbing review of global flash points. The list of "bad" actors with dangerous weapons continues to grow.

Can you add timestamp to those video for each different part ? That would be useful Thanks

[@jojo3033]

surprised the conflicted between Iran and Pakistan wasn’t included

[@Nautilus1986]

Because this wasn‘t a real Iran/Pakistan thing, more a thing against the region Belucistan. A seperstist region in Iran, at the border to Pakistan, and both Iran and Pakistan „don‘t like“ the seperatist there.

[@josephshreeves8192]

Both countries also immediately returned to diplomatic efforts after the Pakistani response. Pakistan isn't in a good spot right now, but it has nukes and a population over 200 million. No country in the middle east proper can compete with that

[@BouncingZeus]

@@josephshreeves8192 I would argue Israel could as they have nukes and a lot of modern NATO tech to level the population size issue.

[@josephshreeves8192]

@@BouncingZeus fair enough. I keep forgetting that since they have never tested their nukes. But their odds are low. If it became any sort of long war, they are outnumbered about 25 to 1

Regarding NK. I got the opportunity to physically see the border from the Chinese side in Dan Dong. A very surreal experience. On the Chinese side there were thousands of tourists busy walking around the harbor and going on to the bridge that connected the two countries which had since been closed during the Covid pandemic. Then there was the stark congrats between the level of development on both sides. the NK side looks like is dotted with some fake buildings which look impressive. but only slightly beyond the other larger buildings were these two story buildings which barely resembled concrete shells. there was little or no human traffic on the NK side and all we could visibly see was some construction machinery moving around. The Chinese side however? several multi story apartment blocks. Lots of small shops and businesses. A massive contrast otherwise to what looks like an almost abandoned village.

I'm glad you covered the pre-emptive strike. A few friends always tell me that north korea is full of under feed soldiers and old armement. And I keep repearing to them: Even a pack of wolf are carefull when surrounding a rat. Because they know that a trap rat can cause a lot of damage before dying.

[@ashleyobrien4937]

ahh, that's hardly a good analogy. NK is more like a starving, desperate blind old man with a rusty revolver walking into a combine harvester. He's completely f*cked.

You’ve really got your hands full at Warographics with the amount you have to report on lately, good work as always. Wonder if people sticking gear up their nose on a weekend are conscious of what that is enabling between waring cartels and the chaos and destruction it brings to civilians..

[@user-iz7ky7vx1u]

Is "gear" a code name for coke?

[@anonemoose8564]

I’d blame the politicians for keeping it illegal/criminalized when the war on drugs has obviously and totally failed. They’re the ones keeping the cartel coffers full, almost intentionally at this point

[@EvgeniPetrov]

It all can go away by simply legalizing it. But no... lets waste billions of dollars and thousands of human lifes for our high morals.

[@user-iz7ky7vx1u]

@@EvgeniPetrov I'm not sure that would be a good idea. 🤔

@@user-iz7ky7vx1u How can it be worse than this? You have thousands of casualties in the drug wars. You have billions of dollars wasted on policing. For what?

As someone who is Not a military analyst, even I can see the a Korean war is just around the corner, as unfortunate as it may be

[@paulsauntry4782]

The N Korea Army is no match for the south which is the 4 largest in the world, not that that really matters in size when you are equipped with every modern piece of equipment they have their K1 panther along with their Abrams while the N has old T62 if that the s flies F22 and f35 and f15 not old decrepit migs the south is the mighty one here. Yes akin has nukes but to use even one would be the last button he ever uses. The south is also wonderfully equipped with Apache and warthogs for ground support a infantry man’s best friend.

Does no one realize Russia may have somehow convinced all of their belligerent friends to start all of these issues? To help them win in Ukraine. That's what I believe is leading to the current world issues where war is breaking out everywhere? China is watching closely and helping them as well
