From this talk from people who have had such influence on US foreign policies, there can be no arguement that the US is looking for confrontation with China. With hawks like these, why would China not be prepared to response to such bellicosities from the US. The fact remain that the US own hubris is the problem that the world has to confront. This american self righteousness, its belief that the world should do as the US lectures them to, but not do as the US do is the cause of so much angsts against the US in many parts of the world. As the constant complaints reinterated here about foreign hacking activities, it is presented as if the US does not do the same to others. American hypocrisies knows no limit.

RIP Vice News. From edgy journalism to establishment mouthpiece. Ignominious end, but lots of money made along the way. So it want all bad news🤣
