This episode mainly discusses how, during the Xiangshan Forum, the Chinese Communist Party's Minister of National Defense Dong Jun and Vice Chairman Han Zheng deliberately played down the Taiwan question and instead launched a fierce public opinion attack against Japan. The program deeply analyzes the escalation of US-Japan military deployments in Okinawa and the first island chain, pointing out that Okinawa has become a key frontline for blockading the Chinese Communist Party. In addition, the program reports that South Korean police once again arrested a Chinese teenage agent suspected of conducting radio surveillance at Jeju Airport, and that the US House of Representatives passed a sanctions bill against Russia by a high margin, adding significant leverage for Trump in the upcoming US-China meeting.

Hello, viewers and friends, welcome to Dr. Yan's show on Lude Media for September 16, 2026. Let's take a look at what news we have for you today. There are so many things happening every day. First, our embassy in China, the one in Beijing, wasn't even invited. Instead, pro-communist former Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama was invited to participate in the dialogue. Then CCTV began reporting that during the Xiangshan Forum, when talking about Japan and the Taiwan question, Yukio Hatoyama said, "I have been to China nearly 100 times. Last year, Sanae Takaichi's remarks on Taiwan were regrettable, as they departed from Japan's past government positions. The Chinese side finds this unacceptable, and Sanae Takaichi should retract her remarks."

Did you notice? During this Xiangshan Forum, the Chinese Communist Party actually deliberately played down the coverage. Especially when Minister of National Defense Dong Jun spoke, he avoided talking about Taiwan. This is quite interesting; you can see his guilty conscience. Clearly, the Taiwan question is his biggest worry, and Xi Jinping is just waiting to embrace Taiwan. And then look, because Xi Jinping used the Taiwan question and US arms sales to Taiwan to negotiate with the United States, saying, "If you add new arms sales to Taiwan, I won't go to see you, Trump." Trump said, "That's fine, no problem. As soon as I squeeze him, he'll come running. There's nothing I can't negotiate with him about," and completely ignored him. As a result, the Chinese Communist Party could only swallow those words. And didn't they say that if there were arms sales to Taiwan you wouldn't go? Didn't they just obediently and shamelessly sign a massive 20-year natural gas contract yesterday?

You can see that even though those fake anti-communist influencers are still enthusiastically spreading rumors—saying Xi Jinping suffered a stroke because he didn't attend the banquet in India—I saw that even foreign media couldn't stand it anymore. They said, "Take a look at Xi Jinping's expression when boarding the plane; does he look like someone who had a stroke? Just like that, right? Does he look like the facial expression and demeanor of someone who had a stroke the day before and walked onto a plane the next day?" Besides, the next morning he even attended the closing ceremony, which was the ceremony for signing the communiqué. So you can see that our show has been following this closely: Xi Jinping actually didn't dare to come and meet Trump, he's a total coward. He originally brought up the Taiwan question thinking he could use it as a bargaining chip to make demands of the United States, and then maybe he wouldn't have to go to the United States. But the US completely ignored him. Therefore, the Chinese Communist Party is about to come to the United States. At the Xiangshan Forum, if he were to publicly talk about how the Taiwan question is this or that, and talk about it with great fanfare, if a reporter were to ask: "Didn't you say that if the US makes more arms sales to Taiwan you wouldn't come to see Trump? Are you still going to see Trump next week or not?" That would be very difficult to answer. So you see, the Chinese Communist Party is in a very awkward position, and Dong Jun deliberately played down the Taiwan question, making it seem as if Xi Jinping doesn't take it to heart.

But if we let Yukio Hatoyama speak, doesn't what Yukio Hatoyama say mirror what the Sanae Takaichi government and former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said—that "a contingency for Taiwan is a contingency for Japan"? Doesn't that ultimately boil down to the Pacific and island chain policies of the United States? Therefore, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is always playing these petty tricks here, which is extremely ridiculous. However, although the CCP didn't deliberately emphasize the Taiwan issue this time—at least Dong Jun didn't deliberately emphasize it on the first day—it brought Japanese Yukio Hatoyama over. As if that wasn't enough, look at how it is obviously giving Japan the cold shoulder. I only let pro-CCP people come; I don't let current officials who are standing with the US come. Let's just say, whose petty tricks can't be seen through by anyone? Just like Modi, Modi holds Putin with his right hand and leans on Putin, while holding Xi Jinping with his left hand, and that expression is the same, also this kind of petty trick. Therefore, those who can see through it have already seen through it. Modi holds Putin when it's time to eat, and holds Xi Jinping when it's time to wipe his ass. Isn't this obvious yet?

Of course, the CCP feels its maneuvering is very clever, so when Dong Jun delivered his speech, he shifted the focus to Japan. Japan became the target for the CCP to fire upon at the Xiangshan Forum. Of course, it was just verbal artillery. Dong Jun repeatedly started saying that we must keep historical lessons in mind, maintain a high degree of vigilance against latent hegemony, militarism, and historical revisionism mutations, and not condone or tolerate them. We must suppress the dregs left by history through broad, righteous forces to prevent them from succeeding. This was probably also written for him by AI. Then, including Vice President Han Zheng, during his banquet speech, he also directly fired at Japan, saying that China is always a force for justice, resolutely defending the victory fruits of World War II and the post-war international order, opposing all plots and actions to revive militarism, and pushing the global governance system to be more fair and reasonable. Let's just say, when you accuse others of historical revisionism, can you please not do it in front of more than a hundred countries and regions while shamelessly putting a gloss of the WWII victory on your own face? The parties involved in the WWII victory are still here; the participants are still alive. Your CCP had just finished planting opium in Yan'an, ran back to the city, and found out that Japan had already lost, and then started clapping its hands ready to go over and grab the spoils. Don't come back decades later and insist on claiming that you defended the victory fruits of World War II.

You say your CCP country's reputation is already thoroughly stinking. If your reputation weren't stinking, you wouldn't have brought Xi Jinping's persona to collapse. Didn't you previously have Xi Jinping set as the core, shaping an extremely righteous, fair, reasonable, and peace-loving image? Isn't it because this image has collapsed that he is now personally taking the field every day? Many viewers and friends in the comments quoted classics: personally taking the field in Chinese history doesn't usually lead to a very good end; it's basically always like this. So here you see Xi Jinping, at a time like this, everyone else tries to distance themselves from communism as much as possible, and everyone knows that the US is coming precisely to eliminate this communism of yours, yet Xi Jinping still insists on having his people constantly emphasize that the CCP country is a force for justice, that we are fair, peaceful, and fair-and-just. It's purely that Xi Jinping's grand diplomacy has extraordinary talent, which normal people cannot understand. You say you have both Dong Jun and Han Zheng firing at Japan over there, and then you think you are being so subtle by using "dregs of history," but actually, who doesn't understand? Everyone is now discussing it, understanding that the dregs of history refers to Japan. Moreover, the implication of the CCP country is that as long as you don't support the CCP country in taking Taiwan, and don't support the CCP country in undermining the US island chain Pacific strategy, then you, Japan, are the target the CCP wants to deal with, and directly that it cannot be tolerated, nor subject to external interference. Including what some reports quoted, like Dong Jun and others directly saying it implies you Japan might as well try and see if you can beat China, that's what it means. Such words in short have already been quoted by various media outlets and interpreted by various media outlets, and everyone sees it very clearly.

When we see this, we can rest easy, because we've always told everyone that the real fear was if Xi Jinping truly turned out to be a coward to the very end. If he really chickened out too much, and instead of faking illness, he actually gave himself some kind of senile dementia or cerebral hemorrhage, and was willing to risk ruining his own health, just like cutting off his tail to survive. His IQ wasn't high to begin with, so he simply sacrifices what little IQ he has left, and then makes the US truly think, never mind, this is a fool with a bad brain. He really is useless; next up, his brain is thoroughly no longer normal, turning into a pure 250 way of playing, then indeed from this perspective, we'd have to say the US really would need to change strategy. But Xi Jinping, on the other hand, is unwilling; he can't bear to part with those few brain cells of his, and he still confidently feels that he has backup moves, always feeling that his IQ can outplay the whole world. Just give me a lever, and I can move the whole Earth. The problem is you have to have that lever first, right? Ultimately, it's because he can't see the situation clearly, having been dizzyingly praised by himself. As our program has repeatedly told you, anyway, no matter what, we now see that although you didn't put the Taiwan issue as the focus of the meeting these past two days—at least not yet—you put Japan as the focus, which is also a good thing. Now just look across the entire First Island Chain, is there anything faster and more effective than Japan and the US uniting to upgrade their military power, intelligence power, and specific strategies step-by-step against the CCP?

The Philippines lacks a solid foundation, so although they cooperate with the United States, they can never be like Japan—which can be mobilized instantly and armed rapidly upon a moment's notice. Moreover, from top to bottom, despite the CCP constantly talking down the Sanae Takaichi administration, their internal cohesion remains very strong, especially given Japan's national character. Including Indonesia, although Indonesia has also been cooperating all along, Indonesia still has its own solid foundation. Cambodia's Hun Sen is cooperating now too, but at the end of the day, throughout this entire region—the Pacific, the entire Asian region—is Japan not the most useful one? That is roughly equivalent to the relationship between the US and Israel in the Middle East, or at least very close to it. So now the CCP directly opens fire on Japan, calling them the "scum of history," and they actually have the nerve to utter such words. Well, let's just say that since the US has already deployed its forces, we are currently within the golden combat window—the timetable for the outbreak of war. You tell me, just when you are afraid of retreating and you turn on Japan, you don't even look at how many cards you have left in your hand. This is a good thing; if you have the ability, go ahead and have an accidental skirmish with Japan. After all, the CCP is surrounded by powder kegs right now. It could be Russia, it could be North Korea, or it could be Vietnam. You must certainly not think that Vietnam is of one heart with the CCP right now just because they both came out of the communist circle; who doesn't know how the others play? Profiteering at the expense of others fits the essence of communists very well, especially since Russia has already made a move to win over Vietnam. Then look at Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and so on, not to mention Taiwan. The CCP has placed itself inside a powder keg while still thinking it can pick a soft persimmon—it's hilarious.

Look at how the CCP deals with the United States; it never dares to play for real. At least on the surface—regardless of whether it only dares to do things behind the scenes—on the surface, it kneels as much as it possibly can. Look at the oil contract signed yesterday; at the same time, during yesterday's Ministry of Foreign Affairs regular press conference, an AFP reporter specifically brought up the fact that the US Space Force exposed its operational in-orbit space weapons and asked the CCP for its views, and whether China also possesses such in-orbit space weapons. The Chinese Communist Party knows very well what actually happened to its own mysteriously disintegrated Yaogan-50 02 satellite, but people kneel as much as they are supposed to, and cowar as much as they are required to. The spokesperson just said that China consistently adheres to the peaceful use of outer space, safeguards outer space security, opposes the weaponization of outer space, and urges the US side to stop expanding its military and preparing for war in outer space, and to take practical actions to maintain global strategic stability. What does this mean? First, the CCP does not have in-orbit space weapons—of course, even if it did, it wouldn't dare admit it, but its main line is still that it doesn't have any. Second, seeing that the US has them, it now wants to hold the US back and urge the US to stop, just like it tries to hold the US back on the issue of AI. Third, regarding this matter—against the backdrop of its mysteriously disintegrated remote sensing satellite, which had just helped Iran strike US forces right before it mysteriously disintegrated, and now the US casually telling you that it does have in-orbit space weapons—so do you see that? The CCP is so guilty that it doesn't even dare to answer directly, simply resorting to "we are just peaceful, we oppose others being peaceful, and don't ask me anything else, I'm just pretending not to hear." It cowers to such an extent when facing the US, at least to leave a good impression for Xi Jinping before he meets Trump. But when facing Japan, it turns around with this arrogant, petty-minded smugness.

Regarding the matter of Japan, didn't we discuss it with everyone a couple of days ago? Is the flip of political power in Okinawa's local governance as simple as a regional leader—the equivalent of a provincial governor or mayor—flipping sides? Didn't the CCP itself say that this flip is the Japanese side taking advantage of geopolitical conflicts to consolidate its control over the Ryukyus and continue its ambitions for external expansion? And the articles published by the CCP here also show extreme worry that if the US and Japan continue to ignore the interests of this region, the Ryukyus will become front-line cannon fodder in the competition between major powers. The CCP knows very well that with Japan and the US's series of armed-to-the-teeth tactics, if you, the CCP, treat Japan as a soft persimmon, can you really defeat them? Therefore, I think Xi Jinping's grand diplomacy is purely a mess of porridge inside his brain—one mess after another—otherwise, you couldn't possibly arrive at such a conclusion. You already know that Okinawa is obviously a weather vane, and since even this place has flipped, not to mention Japan's central government and the entire mainland region of Japan. And what are the US military forces in Okinawa for? A couple of days ago, we intended to talk about the flip in Okinawa's local leadership, but we didn't have time. Right on cue, look—talking about Okinawa, if we just take the matter of Okinawa alone to show everyone, are you, the CCP, really capable of standing up to Japan? Are you really, as you boast in your mouth, so high-spirited and vigorous that you are going to suppress this "scum of history"?

Let's take a look at Okinawa. The main facility managed by the US military in Okinawa is the Kadena Air Base, which is regularly operated and led by the US 18th Wing. Then there is also the Futenma Marine Corps Air Station, managed by the 1st Marine Aircraft Wing of the US Marine Corps, referred to as Futenma Base. In addition, the pier dedicated to the navy is the US Military Port Facility in Okinawa, which is directly managed by the navy and army logistics. In other words, the navy, army, air force, and marine corps all have facilities they are responsible for there. Furthermore, a common part of interacting with the US military, extending outward from Okinawa, is Ishigaki Island located right here in the entire Miyako Strait. Although Ishigaki Island is not a permanent US military base, it is used by the Japan Self-Defense Forces. Therefore, in recent years, the US-Japan alliance's military preparations have been continuously upgrading. The US military on Ishigaki Island—such as the Brave Dragon exercise we previously talked to you about, and those other joint exercises—are all related to it. Therefore, we say that Okinawa is long past being simply a traditional base where an aircraft carrier docks. If we explain Okinawa's dominance using the strategy of America's modern military frontline hunting and blockade system, the main island of Okinawa is actually the hunter's camp, while the series of small islands from Miyako and Ishigaki all the way to Yonaguni Island, scattered between the main island and the Miyako Strait, are equivalent to the US military, along with Japan, transforming them along the first island chain into a gun barrel crosshair. Further back, places like Guam and Hawaii serve as strategic depth. As for the Philippines, the entire northern part of the Philippines, including the Basa Strait area, is equivalent to another gate. As we have repeatedly told you before, the Miyako Strait and the Basa Strait are important floodgates that, once a Taiwan Strait conflict breaks out, the US will definitely lead its allies to directly lock down for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), trapping you tightly inside your home.

So you see, one of the most important links in the first island chain is Okinawa. Therefore, official public documents from the US also directly state that Okinawa is a base for deterring China, defending Japan, and maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific. And look, it is far more than just defending the island chain; it is about the CCP wanting to drive the US military out of the Western Pacific. And if you want to drive the US out of the Western Pacific, you must first control Taiwan and break through the first island chain. This is the concept we have repeatedly talked to you about before, and I believe our veteran viewers are already very familiar with it. The problem is, as I said, you, the CCP, are like a mouse trying to bell the cat. To achieve your overall goal, can you achieve every single step? And now the US approach is: I know you, the mouse, are going to put a bell on my cat's neck, and I am watching you right here. The moment you, the mouse, move out with the bell, I will slap you to death with one paw first, or I will lunge forward and bite your neck in one go. What chance do you even have to put on the bell? Therefore, we actually say that while it seems like the overturning of the situation in Okinawa is just a regional issue, a Japanese regional issue, it is actually not. It directly points to the bankruptcy of the CCP's so-called Taiwan Strait strategy of constantly breaking through the US island chain. Your "east rises while the west declines," your dumpling-making-style navy, and your arrogant stance on the island chain trying to force the US back to Hawaii—Okinawa is now proudly in the hands of the US and Japan, newly cooperating with the central government and cooperating with the US military's policy of eliminating the communist regime. So you are still here shouting historical residue at Japan.

Let's talk to you in detail about Okinawa; this is definitely a major event. Therefore, I say that its grand diplomacy is a path of self-destruction that is unstoppable. Look, first of all, Okinawa itself is part of the Ryukyu Southwestern Islands, which naturally form a barrier-like structure extending from Kyushu in Japan to the northeastern part of Taiwan, between the East China Sea and the Philippine Sea. If you want to enter and cross the entire first island chain, you have to pass through here, which is the important Miyako Strait. The entire Okinawa system plus the Miyako Strait is itself used to monitor and threaten the navy and air force of the entire Eastern Theater Command. Places like Shanghai and Zhoushan are all under their monitoring. Then, for the East China Sea Fleet's entire routes entering and exiting the Western Pacific, you have to take this Miyako Strait. And when the CCP occasionally makes a show of force with coast guard and naval actions targeting the Diaoyu Islands, it also has to pass through this area. All of Okinawa can keep an eye on you. Then, in the direction of northern and northeastern Taiwan, including the People's Liberation Army (PLA) aircraft carrier formation—not daring to go anywhere far, but for nearby places, you just like to circle Taiwan. Those few ships of yours, like the Fujian, Shandong, and Liaoning, just love to circle Taiwan. Once you circle Taiwan and want to enter the Philippine Sea, you are also taking this route. Needless to say, when CCP submarines move from near-shore waters to deep-water areas, can you avoid the Miyako Strait either? We have previously told everyone that within this entire Okinawa defense system, places like Yonaguni Island are only 110 kilometers away from Taiwan. Here, Miyako Island, Ishigaki Island, and Yonaguni Island, coupled with the large airports, ports, and the entire command, maintenance, and logistics system of the main island of Okinawa—PLA, take a good look at this yourself. Open your eyes and wipe them clean, do you really think you have the ability to handle this? Before you shout slogans, shouldn't you first weigh how much you actually weigh?

Now let's talk about the past year. Although Denny Tamaki, the pro-CCP governor who went to trace his ancestral roots, is still in charge, he only acts as a source of background noise. Before leaving office, he was unable to reverse all the actions taken by the US-Japan alliance to upgrade Okinawa from a garrison base into a mobile anti-ship firepower network. As we discussed previously, aren't the 12th Marine Littoral Regiment in Okinawa increasingly developing full combat capabilities? Since the establishment of this 12th Marine Littoral Regiment in March of last year, it has expanded to be responsible for seizing islands, controlling islands, as well as ports and coasts, taking charge of these duties whenever a contingency arises. Furthermore, the Littoral Regiment includes an air defense battalion that operates drones and helicopters, as well as its own logistics battalion, which is responsible for decentralized inter-island logistics, communications, and so on. The overall upgrade of the 12th Marine Littoral Regiment, including the newly added combat units, is not designed to wait until the Chinese Communist Party breaks through this defense line and lands in Okinawa to fight a beachhead battle. They have already calculated in advance that if the Chinese Communist Party manages to push things to that point, they will anticipate the worst and layout their combat response strategy beforehand. Before you even arrive, they have already deployed the islands of the first island chain in advance. Some of these islands act as sensors, some can identify target nodes, some are anti-ship missile launch units, along with air defense and other capabilities, setting up various firepower barriers for you.

As we have discussed in so many episodes, isn't their goal to treat the entire Okinawa area as the core of the forward-deployed forces for the first island chain joint and allied operations? This is not just my claim; it is defined on the official website of the US Marine Corps, which everyone can check. I won't go into detail here, but it is written on their own Marine Corps website, and I have checked the sources. The core significance of Okinawa defined by them is to ensure routine access during peacetime, control key areas during crises, and serve as a forward naval base during wartime. Therefore, you should know that, just like what we and previous shows discussed regarding the NMESIS—which is short for the Navy-Marine Corps Expeditionary Ship Interdiction System—they have already deployed, utilized, and practiced it here as a whole. For example, during last year's Resolute Dragon exercise, the US deployed their unmanned anti-ship missile system to Ishigaki Island, alongside Japan's own Type 12 surface-to-ship missile systems, plus Patriots, Japan's medium-range surface-to-air missiles, and other US integrated air defense systems. When I did the show back then, I told everyone that this wasn't like the Chinese Communist Party putting on a military parade to show off weapons and brag; they were actually conducting practical drills. From Hokkaido all the way down to Ishigaki Island, how to rapidly transport this combined anti-ship and air defense firepower. After completing this exercise at the time, during the annual review, the U.S. military stated that our system completed joint operations and simulated firepower missions across these islands. Doesn't this point right at you, the Chinese Communist Party? What kind of defensive or retaliatory role can yours possibly play?

The United States, including their exercise of launching Naval Strike Missiles, also coordinated with the maneuverability of various unmanned ground vehicles. Do you remember when I told you back then that they really shoot and scoot? After the missile is fired, by the time you look back to find where it was launched from, you can't find it anymore, because those are mobile vehicles that relocate rapidly. Do you remember I even showed everyone in my show those public U.S. military systems, tiny ones that look just like small pickup trucks and can tow missile launch systems? Aren't they deployed on those islands, forming various cross-fires, and even integrating sea, land, air, and space? In other words, wasn't your previous assumption as the Chinese Communist Party that once a war breaks out, you would fire a few Dongfeng missiles to destroy a few large airfields, suppress a few U.S. warships until U.S. ship numbers couldn't keep up, and then you would break through the first island chain? It was all about taking it step by step, like a mouse putting a bell on a cat's neck, thinking through steps one, two, and three very nicely. Isn't the United States targeting this exact plan now to counter your anti-access strategy? Because they know this is what you expect, they are making the first move, preparing these mobile, concealable, and networked anti-access nodes. And do you remember I told you before, like the Kadena Air Base, there was a specific news drill last year about how, if the base's runway is damaged, they can rapidly rebuild and temporarily repair the aircraft runway without affecting the subsequent takeoff and landing of fighter jets. We went through and interpreted this step-by-step alongside the news reports back then.

Why do I always say, I feel like these armchair strategists, after watching our show, go back and only report the good news and hide the bad. If you just summarized the knowledge points we talk about in our show, you wouldn't let Xi Jinping be kept so clueless and out of touch. In other words, if you weren't completely out of touch, you wouldn't be embarking on a personal conquest. But now that Xi Jinping is eager to be the vanguard of the era, it shows that even the armchair strategists know they have a guilty conscience, and they dare not speak the truth in front of Xi Jinping, only reporting the good news while hiding the bad. At the same time, they know they have to egg Xi Jinping on to quickly become the vanguard of the era, because otherwise, if things go on like this, everyone will go down together and no one can protect anyone. So Xi Jinping's main feature right now is that when he commands personally, he is completely out of touch, and then he is surrounded by a group of sycophants, double agents, and people with ulterior motives who fan the flames and keep fooling him. So what kind of correct decisions can he make? Even though Japan has already deployed its forces to this extent, he still thinks Japan is an easy target to be bullied.

Moreover, we have talked about so much previously, including the U.S. using new F-15EXs entering Kadena to replace those older models, and including how U.S. anti-submarine aircraft and refuelers are deployed there, continuously showing you their strength. And we specifically pointed out that all of these U.S. drills—from last year's Keen Edge, this year's Keen Edge, to various other live-fire exercises and maneuver trainings this year, all the way to what we call Talisman Sabre, and now the Freedom Edge 2026 just conducted by the U.S., Japan, and South Korea—are all continuously practicing how to blockade the entire island chain. It's not just about defending Okinawa, or merely targeting the Miyako Strait; it is practicing a full-chain blockade. Not to mention that Russia is now cooperating as well: you can forget about casually passing through the Northern Territories, and the Tumen River will add another lock for you. Tell me, what ability does the CCP have to challenge them?

Take how the CCP previously boasted that the U.S. had already withdrawn some logistics and Marine Corps personnel, relocating them from Okinawa to Guam, saying, "Look, in the long run, 9,000 Marines are expected to leave Okinawa." I remember I previously told everyone that this relocation is not actually a reduction in military strength; rather, because of the U.S.'s overall AI combat command combined with air-space-to-space integration, it doesn't need that many people stationed in Okinawa. Instead, through high-tech advancements, it can replace a portion of the personnel formerly stationed in Okinawa, and those personnel can go to Guam or other locations to undertake depth, logistics, reinforcement, and other command tasks. So this is not a case of the U.S. just waiting for you to come over and then scattering once you arrive; it's not like that at all. On the contrary, it is being reinforced layer by layer. Furthermore, as early as March last year, the U.S. already upgraded the U.S. Forces Japan Headquarters to the first phase of a Joint Force Headquarters, and established the Joint Operations Command with Japan at the same time. At the time, it was made very clear that a joint presence in the southwestern region is a priority, that the ability to enter key terrain within the first island chain must be expanded, and that real-time coordination during crises must be improved through more realistic joint training. In other words, they are preparing for war by the minute; the moment they detect any abnormality on the CCP's side, they will strike first to ensure a 100% victory. So it is very obvious that the U.S. and Japan are constantly upgrading, and as these two forces twist together tighter and tighter, the governor of Okinawa changed hands, effectively cooperating rather than letting this regional level hold them back, directly weakening the CCP's infiltration power locally. You are still using Japan as a target—seriously, the U.S. is saying, "I've been waiting for you to come." Tell me, Taiwan, Japan, Philippines—which one are you planning to attack first? Whichever one you attack, the US would be more than happy; as long as you dare to fire, as long as you dare to move your claws, the U.S. will have a just cause, and the U.S. is just begging for you to come over right away. So what is the point of showing off your military might over here? It really is courting death, continuously courting death.

And by the way, speaking of this, a new piece of news broke out today: the little CCP spies sent to South Korea are coming wave after wave. A few days ago, we told you about a retired person who went outside a U.S. military base in South Korea, saying they just loved listening to the communication information between aircraft or between aircraft and ground control towers, and was arrested with a full set of complete equipment for conducting wiretaps. Wasn't there also a person running a military surplus store outside the U.S. base who got arrested? And wasn't there previously talk of middle schoolers who, as soon as they had free time, would travel in groups to South Korea to fly drones, with parents not caring or even accompanying them, and some getting arrested? Having caught so many, the CCP still feels that as long as you don't arrest all my people, I will always have spies going over—this mindset is truly admirable. So look, on September 15, the Jeju Provincial Police Agency in South Korea announced that another Chinese teenager was suspected of using a radio to eavesdrop on control tower communications at Jeju Airport, and there were multiple photos of military facilities inside their camera; they are currently under investigation. It is said that this teenager in their teens flew from China to Jeju Island on August 27, and used a handheld radio on the fourth-floor observation deck of Jeju Airport to listen to communications between the control tower and airplanes for about 90 minutes. It feels like they hadn't even left the airport before they started committing the crime right there. Then the police stated that this teenager had also entered South Korea multiple times in the past without being accompanied by a guardian or companion, and the multiple photos of military facilities in the camera involved at least two military facilities. Currently, this teenager is restricted from leaving the country, and authorities are focusing on what exactly they are up to now.

Do you really think he is just a pure teenager? First of all, let's talk about how many people get caught. You look at those so-called refugees who ran from the Middle East to Europe or the United States for asylum; when they get caught for committing crimes and are investigated, it turns out they have been disguising themselves as 16-year-old middle school students for years, saying, 'I just look a bit old; we grew up in Iraq, Iran, and places like that, weathered by the hardships of war, not as vibrant as you young people in America.' But in reality, once investigated, they are all in their 30s or even 40s, lying about being teenagers. So, you say, for us Chinese, especially the younger ones, if you really alter the age downwards, isn't it more convincing than a guy with a big beard pretending to be 16? So first of all, I say, for these teenagers, and those previous Chinese high school students, you really have to check their teeth, just like checking a horse; you have to pry their mouths open to see how old they really are. Is he really a 'Little Red Soldier' like Wang Erxiao who developed this way, or is he at least college-aged, one of those little spies trained in military academies? Why are so many Chinese parents so caught up in the rat race that they don't even accompany their children when they have free time, instead letting them go out and spending money to equip them with radio communication receivers, drones, and high-end cameras, and then sending them to South Korea? They go straight to the target—wherever there is an important facility or a classified military facility, that's where they go to take photos and eavesdrop. What are you doing? If you play this game too much, people won't believe you even if you shout it three times. To be honest, if they do believe it, it's because they are turning a blind eye and cooperating with you internally. But no matter how deeply South Korea has been infiltrated by the CCP, it is clear that the United States is watching here. I bet that if the United States weren't watching these things here, the South Korean police wouldn't have caught so many CCP spies in the last year or two.

Alright, after talking about this new case in South Korea, let's talk about the CCP. You only have these few tricks, repeating them over and over again, treating this one as a soft persimmon today and that one as a soft persimmon tomorrow; you really have the nerve. Look, let's take a look at these persimmons you think are soft; in fact, they are no longer what they used to be. After three days of separation, a scholar should be viewed with new eyes; that persimmon is already a hard dried persimmon. Look at Kim Jong Un. At this exact moment, right after the CCP kicked Russia to the curb and humiliated it, and after signing that oil and natural gas contract with the United States, at the same time, Russia's wounded little heart is being comforted by Kim Jong Un. Look, Kim Jong Un has reiterated his support for Russia's holy war in Ukraine. Let's look at the new news that has come out: the bill for sanctions against Russia has been passed, 262 to 159. This is a big deal. The bill for sanctions against Russia was previously passed in the Senate with a high vote, almost unanimous, an overwhelming majority. Although the secondary sanctions were reduced from 500 percent to 100 percent, who doesn't know that a 100 percent tariff is a death sentence for whoever it's imposed on? As a result, look, for the past two days, the House of Representatives has been discussing whether to pass this bill; originally, it was said that the Democrats in the House were blocking it. How is it such a coincidence that just as the CCP knelt down to the U.S. and offered a big gift package of natural gas contracts, begging for a good look when they meet Trump, the rift between Russia and the CCP has grown so large that the 'Power of Siberia' has been renamed 'Power of Lake Baikal,' and the Tumen River is locked down? Now, this bill for sanctions against Russia has passed 262 to 159 and is being sent directly to Trump's desk. So, you tell me, will Trump sign it tomorrow, or will he wait until he meets Xi Jinping on September 24th to sign it in front of him, or will he wait until Xi Jinping has left, just as Xi's plane takes off, and then Trump signs it in front of the reporters? There is going to be a good show to watch next.

I told everyone yesterday that the renaming of the 'Power of Lake Baikal' was definitely not done lightly. Just look at the way Putin was being held by his right hand by Modi at the BRICS summit, and that fake smile he gave to Xi Jinping. Look again, as I said, this strategy of 'uniting with Russia to destroy the CCP' has been set in stone by Xi Jinping himself. Look at 'Little Fatty' Kim; he knows how to time things. He actually doesn't need to continue to firmly promise to support Russia's war in Ukraine right now. Russia itself is willing to negotiate; what need is there for Kim Jong Un to hold onto this matter now? It's obvious that he knows Russia cannot swallow up Ukrainian territory or take Ukraine in a blitzkrieg in this matter. Logically, it wouldn't be impossible for him to keep a low profile, but look, Kim Jong Un is at this juncture, just after the Tumen River Bridge was opened to traffic in coordination with Putin. A couple of days ago, I was telling everyone that the CCP was bragging, meaning that although the Tumen River is open, we also have the newly built Yalu River Bridge between us and North Korea, which will also be open to traffic as soon as North Korea finishes the supporting facilities. Look, I'm just saying that 'Little Fatty' knows how to conduct himself. His cunning, if nothing else, at least he has been educated abroad; he is still better than you, Xi Jinping, and he is still more clear-headed, at least when it comes to personal interests and dictatorial interests, he sees things clearly. So look here, Xi Jinping and Putin wrote letters, handwritten letters, at the same time to congratulate North Korea on its 78th anniversary. Kim Jong Un's reply to Xi Jinping was lukewarm, but in his letter to Putin, he continued to make promises and said that what is happening in Russia against Ukraine is a holy war. Kim Jong Un knows how to speak; I firmly believe that the Russian Federation will achieve victory in this sacred war to defend its national security interests and international justice.

When North Korea keeps saying in South Korea that "we are an internal affair of the peninsula, we are willing to extend an olive branch of peace, we are willing to cooperate, and if you don't want to talk to us, then cooperate with the United States to terminate the war with you directly," and when the CCP tries to intervene to help the United States negotiate with North Korea, North Korea makes another statement. Early one morning, around the 12th, it suddenly launched some unidentified flying objects toward the Sea of Japan. South Korea said it had detected the launch, but provided no details. The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command issued a statement immediately around the 11th, saying it was aware of the recent missile launches by North Korea and was consulting closely with allies and partners. Based on current assessments, this event does not pose an immediate threat to U.S. personnel, territory, or allies, and the U.S. remains firmly committed to defending this security. This is quite interesting, a statement specifically issued by the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command. North Korea launched missiles in a process where it seemed uncooperative; logically, being so uncooperative—especially after Trump had already called and news was released about arranging a meeting with Kim Jong Un—throwing missiles around like this seems a bit ungrateful. However, the outside world does not know what it launched. Logically, firing toward the Sea of Japan, if it were slightly off-target and hit Japan, wouldn't that infringe upon the interests of U.S. allies? But it didn't. It launched missiles in that direction. It is understandable that South Korea wants to downplay it, but the Indo-Pacific Command immediately came out to tell you not to worry, that we have this under control. So what exactly is this missile that North Korea launched? If it wanted to show off its new weapons, it wouldn't just launch an unidentified missile; it would immediately release propaganda to promote it. And if it wanted to cooperate with Russia here to deter Japan, it should also have a narrative. But it didn't; it just launched it, and the U.S. military said not to worry. It feels like North Korea just wanted to show, "I have autonomy, and I only communicate directly with you, the United States. You others, whether it's the CCP or South Korea, don't try to interfere and create all kinds of distance between the U.S. and North Korea while you reap the benefits; I can play this game myself." As long as I want to communicate with the U.S., if I can't make a phone call, I'll throw out two missiles, and immediately someone from the Indo-Pacific Command might come to communicate with us. This missile sounds a bit like a signal flare; in short, it's not for destruction, but perhaps just to tell the U.S., "Come over, come over, I want to talk to you, I have important things to communicate with you, perhaps even private secret diplomacy, a pledge of allegiance, etc." There are many of Xi's eyes and ears around the "Little Fatty" (Kim Jong Un), so launching a more sophisticated signal flare—with this signal flare being defined as launching unidentified missiles toward the Sea of Japan—is entirely possible. Otherwise, this behavior is hard to explain; why would he go out of his way to cause trouble for himself for no reason right now?

Furthermore, North Korea has been up to some things. While Lee Jae-myung in South Korea wants to say, "We can have a pretty good relationship with North Korea, we can handle this ourselves," North Korea has crossed the 38th parallel back and forth at least 20 times in the past month. North Korea is testing the waters here, and South Korea has had to admit that there were only 17 such incidents in total last year, while this year has already exceeded the entire previous year in just one month. This is very interesting; it tells you that the South Korean military is also considering strengthening its alert status and requesting the United Nations Command to investigate whether the Armistice Agreement has been violated. This looks exactly like North Korea is cooperating with the United States. You, South Korea, want to finalize the armistice and get the wartime operational control currently held by the United Nations Command into your own hands. Look at how I am frequently creating incidents—not too big, not too small—just enough to provoke the attention of the United Nations Command, and completely shattering the narrative you worked so hard to build: "We can now control the big picture, the situation on the peninsula is stable, we are all about to unify, so hurry up and hand over this power to us, America." Kim Jong-un has the timing down perfectly: unidentified missiles, 20 border probes, answering the phone when he should, and having his sister come out to express how much she misses that historic moment when he met with Trump—the performance is very well-staged. If Xi were to truly break his persona as a vampire lying in a coffin, fixed as the sole authority, he really wouldn't even compare to someone like Kim, the leader of a unique authoritarian state. After all, Kim is a post-80s generation leader; he went to Japan when he was a child, and intelligence revealed that his father took him to Disneyland in Japan using a fake name. You can see that no matter what, in this era, he understands how to present his persona to the West in the age of social media. So he appears frequently, including the persona of a loving father to his daughter, various personas of smiling while inspecting, and various personas of acting like an innocent child in front of Putin. Since I've acknowledged you as my father, you are truly my father; I can even call you my real father without being at a disadvantage in age. He is different from Xi; when Xi calls Putin "father," he is at a disadvantage in age, but not Kim—he has a very good mindset. Anyway, I didn't have a father to begin with, so having a free father come along now isn't impossible; holding hands, riding in cars together, doing whatever—he can pull off that enthusiastic energy. How can Xi compare to him? On this point alone, you, Xi, cannot compare. And look at how well he knows how to play these things, how to play in the public opinion arena. Regardless of how many years the CCP has played cognitive warfare and public opinion warfare, when it comes to the real way to play the public opinion arena, Kim still knows how to do it. With these few missiles launched, a phone call answered, his sister playing the "good cop" while he plays the "bad cop," and sending a few soldiers to drift in and out of the 38th parallel in a lukewarm manner, he starts to push this matter onto the right track. While embracing Russia, Kim is also keeping chips for himself; he has things he needs to talk about directly with the United States, things that you, the U.S., cannot bypass Kim on and must communicate with him directly. This is what Kim ultimately really wants.

Recently, there is another piece of news: South Korean intelligence agencies suddenly discovered that the third fatty's daughter should have biological siblings. On September 10, the National Intelligence Service of South Korea stated that, based on their analysis, Kim Jong Un's daughter, Kim Ju-ae, is believed to have another sibling of unknown gender. Previously, they thought there might be an older brother, but they weren't sure, so they said even if there were a brother, he might not be able to succeed. As we mentioned, Kim Ju-ae has someone about the same age—equivalent to a twin, though not from the same birth, maybe an older sister born slightly earlier through IVF—who is being held hostage by the Chinese Communist Party. We already talked about this back in 2024. When discussing the Sansheng Project (Project Three Lives), Kim Jong Un referred to his descendants as the Descendants of the Sun project, while the CCP said you produce a lot of highland ginseng, so yours is called the Sansheng Project. They secretly harvested eggs in Shenyang at that time, created fertilized embryos, and held onto Li Xuezu's surrogate IVF embryos as well as the daughter Li Xuezu gave birth to back then. In addition, they also detained six fertilized embryos belonging to Kim Jong Un, though it's unclear if they are Li Xuezu's. They claimed to North Korea that your daughter has a congenital heart disease and we will cure her for you, but she couldn't be cured and kept back in China. Earlier in the show, we repeatedly talked about those photos; when shown to US intelligence personnel, they immediately saw that she looked just like a carbon copy of Kim Jong Un. If all else fails and you manage to get rid of Kim Jong Un, the CCP could still take that hostage back and swap the prince with a pauper. Isn't this why Kim Jong Un, ever since we exposed this, has been bringing Kim Ju-ae out to make public appearances every day? Moreover, he is embracing Russia tighter and tighter. So, it is very obvious that by now, we don't know whether South Korea's statement was because the US gave them intelligence forcing them to speak out, but anyway, South Korea suddenly started bringing up the question of how many children Kim Jong Un actually has again. And whereas they previously maintained that South Korea thought Kim Ju-ae had an older brother, now they are starting to backtrack, saying it is unconfirmed. Back in 2023, South Korean intelligence inferred that Kim Jong Un had a boy older than Kim Ju-ae. So think about whether it's possible that this was just fake news intentionally leaked by the CCP through South Korea to create this narrative and lead the US into further misjudgment regarding North Korea. If you can't even figure out how many children Kim Jong Un has, it further proves that you don't have any deep, core relationship with North Korea. Just like letting Guo Wengui out to test the Trump administration, using some information about Wang Qishan to see how deeply the US actually understands the CCP under the Xi regime, it's the exact same play. But now, suddenly at this juncture, saying that Kim Ju-ae is in the stage of being the predetermined successor, yet analyzing that she should have another sibling—doesn't this basically verify what we said? So indeed, as we said, Kim Jong Un brought Kim Ju-ae out back then precisely because he was afraid the CCP would just bump them off, so he needed to make her high-profile so everyone could recognize her. Because Kim Ju-ae and that other child are not identical twins and don't look completely alike, if you make daily appearances, when the CCP tries to swap the prince for a pauper later on, everyone will recognize that it's a fake, not the same person. So look, why is it that at this very moment, as the CCP high-profilely inserts itself into the upcoming negotiations between the US and North Korea, this piece of intelligence emerges, pointing right to the little Sansheng child? With this little Sansheng making a fuss over here, the CCP still wants to manipulate Kim Jong Un at will like before, but times have long since changed. From the moment we exposed this Sansheng Project, the situation changed.

Moreover, over the past week or so, there have been a lot of developments in North Korea. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has been keeping an eye on India and Iran, repeatedly stating that there are unidentified signs of activity in Iran, raising deep concerns, and adding that the Iranian nuclear issue must be resolved as soon as possible. Every time the IAEA speaks out about Iran, it usually means that Iran's nuclear program is once again on the brink of being dismantled. At the same time, the IAEA is now emphasizing the situation in North Korea. On September 9 and 10, the IAEA stated that North Korea has already built a new uranium enrichment facility at its main Yongbyon nuclear complex, capable of housing up to 28 sets of centrifuges, and that the expansion of the uranium enrichment facility near Pyongyang has also been initiated, indicating the continuous expansion of North Korea's nuclear weapons program. This is definitely a time to trigger a red alert. If the United States tells Iran that if it pursues uranium enrichment it will be crushed, there is no reason why the U.S. would ignore North Korea, a member of the axis of evil, doing the exact same thing. Naturally, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is foolishly dragging itself into a conflict with Japan at the Xiangshan Forum today. The powder keg in Northeast Asia is already far more unstable than any other direction around you, and looking at the Korean Peninsula, you are still adding fuel to the fire over the Japan issue—it is truly baffling. Right under your nose, North Korea is a place where you cannot avoid the U.S. military coming in for deep cooperation or stirring up trouble, yet you are still messing around with Japan and Taiwan, and boasting about how awesome your military might is. The IAEA actually released a report at the end of August stating that North Korea is no longer allowing inspectors to enter the country, and that current activities are verified through satellite imagery and open-source data. It added that Kim Jong-un also inspected some construction sites in June, which allowed them to confirm that it is a new uranium enrichment plant—even spanning two levels, very large—and that these expansion works also violate relevant UN Security Council resolutions. Therefore, the UN atomic agency has now submitted a statement saying that this matter is extremely alarming. Although North Korea can claim it is not a member of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and that this is interference in its internal affairs, the IAEA's statement is out there, and the report provides the U.S. with the leverage it needs. Under these circumstances, logically speaking, if North Korea did not have various backchannel communications with the U.S., this would simply be pure suicide. Everyone also knows that Fatty the Third's playstyle is just like Russia's—his survival instinct is off the charts. So this once again echoes what we discussed earlier: brothers climbing a mountain strive individually, only to look back and find that the CCP is the biggest target of all.

Right, so here the CCP is still talking about the Iranian Foreign Minister, who is already a lost cause. It is clear that the Iranian President and Foreign Minister attended the BRICS summit and the SCO summit at the same time as Xi, yet Xi simply did not publicly engage with them, nor did he arrange any in-depth talks. However, after Xi personally went out on such a major diplomatic tour, running from south to north and east to west, suddenly, upon his return, Wang Yi announced that he would hold talks with Araghchi. This was announced a day in advance, and after the talks, the CCP began issuing official press releases. What did they say? They claimed that China is willing to play a constructive role in resolving international disputes and supports Iran in conducting dialogue with Gulf countries. More importantly, they insisted on returning as soon as possible to the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding—that same memorandum signed in June, which was meant to trick the U.S. into signing it to then destroy the U.S., but because Iran kept violating it, the U.S. has already said it no longer recognizes it. The CCP is looking everywhere in the world for shit to eat, and even then, it can't find it while it's still fresh. When that Islamabad Memorandum was originally signed, the U.S. was just seeing what tricks you were going to play, and while doing so, the U.S. took the opportunity to steer other directions—for example, Saudi Arabia has now been completely brought into the fold, and the UAE has fully cooperated. The U.S. didn't delay anything; it even recalibrated and improved its experience in areas like AI, keeping everything in perfect order. Now, looking back, since you didn't comply with me, I don't recognize you anymore, and the fighting has resumed directly. As a result, the CCP went on this huge tour only to circle back to that Islamabad Memorandum. What does this amount to? It is as if we are treating a patient about to enter the ICU; there are treatments for the acute phase, treatments for the chronic phase, and finally, treatments for the rehabilitation phase after they are discharged. If you look at the CCP's approach, it is like being stuck from beginning to end in the acute phase—trying to stop the bleeding, trying to secure the airway, trying to get some nutrition into the body. This is clearly causing a huge mess, but it cannot sustain anything long-term. As long as you don't move toward the chronic recovery and long-term recovery stages, your approach is simply unsustainable. The CCP is unable to move forward; it remains forever stuck in this acute phase of trying to barely resolve problems. So, it circles around and around, as if you were treating an illness, and by the time the patient is already discharged and in rehabilitation, the CCP is still there saying, 'Oh, I need to stop the bleeding, oh, I need to see if I can maintain his breathing, can I keep him from suddenly being over?' What does this show? It shows that your relationship has never left the danger zone, and it shows that you are the one who is about to be 'over' and kick the bucket at any moment. Remember when the Islamabad Memorandum was signed, the U.S. added a few preconditions that locked everything down immediately? Everything had to be supervised by the U.S., approved by the U.S., and controlled by the U.S. It was clear that this was a ceasefire memorandum where Iran either had to kneel completely and kick the CCP to the side, or it couldn't play the game anymore. Facts have proven that at the time, Wang Yi immediately kicked the matter to Pakistan to meet Araghchi, saying that although this was signed, it was only the first stage, and that we, the CCP, are willing to do our utmost to cooperate with the UN to ensure this ceasefire memorandum is implemented. At the time, I said the CCP realized it had been locked into a trap and started trying to make excuses, saying that what follows is even more difficult than signing the ceasefire memorandum. Now, months later, hasn't it been verified that it is indeed difficult? It hasn't even pushed to the second stage yet, and it's still there saying we must return to it, even though the U.S. has already turned the page, and you are still rushing to talk about returning to it. And then, talking on and on, it's the same old stuff in new packaging, just like when talking about the origins of COVID-19, they keep repeating that it must be the Wuhan seafood market, they keep talking about the cranes, they keep saying it came from bats, they keep saying climate change caused the bats to go to Wuhan, they keep saying we must open the U.S. Fort Detrick, they keep saying Yan Limeng is a little hamster conspiracy theorist. How long has it been, and they still can't change their tune? This is why, once Xi's persona collapsed, the entire system was bound to fall apart. Even after his 'natural origin' theory collapsed, he still hasn't been able to walk back those words after six years. Can the collapse of Xi's persona be mitigated so easily? It's just shattering again and again, crumbling into dust, like a mudslide or an avalanche, completely beyond saving.

"Bedside listeners" (tingchuangshi) are those who speculate about "Xi stepping down and Li taking over," claiming "Xi had a stroke today, a coup tomorrow, or was placed under house arrest the day after." Yet, after all that talk, Xi remains the one personally directing everything, forever sitting as the vanguard of the era. We are different; we don't rely on bedside gossip. Our information comes from people actually around you, right inside your office. So, it was useless for Xi to get rid of that 'Old Bai' inside Zhongnanhai, and then he directly got rid of Xu Qiliang, only to realize he made a mistake. In short, having no other choice, he ended up dissolving the Central Military Commission to personally command. Since he is personally commanding, even the spies from Xi's office are caught the moment they land in the U.S.—so doesn't Xi have to go personally? Otherwise, no amount of people would be enough. So, after all this back and forth, he is again urging all parties to open the Strait of Hormuz soon, even though the U.S. has already opened it for you. Then you backtrack, saying you don't want the tension in the Yemen-Red Sea region to spill over. Speaking of this Yemen-Red Sea situation, the CCP has been stirring up trouble with the Houthi rebels in Yemen over the past few days, blowing up Saudi Arabia's major east-west pipeline. Then, various reports emerged, including mainstream media acting as if it were a serious matter, claiming that global oil supplies were suddenly tight again and that oil prices would skyrocket. But if you look at the closing price of oil today, it has already started to fall back because the U.S. came out and stated clearly that global oil supply is not as tight as the propaganda suggests. First, Saudi Arabia has already stated that they are rushing repairs and it won't be a case of the supply being shut down for six months, a year, or two years. Furthermore, the U.S. Energy Secretary stated today that just yesterday, over 18 million barrels of crude and refined oil safely passed through the Strait of Hormuz. It is not at all the total supply disruption that the market was hyped up to expect. So, the anxiety in the oil market has been calmed. Moreover, the latest data released by the U.S. shows that U.S. crude oil inventories increased significantly by 7.1 million barrels, while the supply of gasoline and distillates increased far beyond market expectations. It won't be the case that the oil issue goes the way the CCP wants. When they tried to attack Iran, they failed to drive up oil prices, so now they are using the Houthis to try to drive them up. With the Middle East supply disruption easing, international oil prices have already begun to fall. What was the CCP rushing for? Just a couple of days ago—actually yesterday, domestic time—they were still desperately citing New York Times articles, claiming the report said Saudi Arabia's closure of this key oil pipeline could lead to a 4% global oil supply shortage and drive up energy prices. Then they started saying oil prices would rise, predicting global oil prices would hit $120, manufacturing anxiety. Two weeks ago, I told everyone that the CCP failed to push oil prices to their expected levels. Then, outlets like the New York Times and The Economist were busy kissing Xi's feet, claiming that because Xi foresaw a reduction in oil imports and replaced oil with new energy, he successfully avoided a global oil price hike. They claimed Xi was indispensable and that the stability of the global energy market was all thanks to him. They shamelessly bragged about it. Then, they immediately thought that because Xi went to Egypt, he personally encouraged the Houthis. Didn't you go to Egypt for the Red Sea issue? Wasn't it to see if Egypt would cooperate? If they did, you would have a stranglehold on the entire transport artery, with the Suez Canal on one end and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait in the Red Sea on the other. It's just that Egypt didn't cooperate with you. Egypt suffered a loss; the UAE branch of an Egyptian bank was suddenly locked down, and not just locked down—it is now facing imminent closure. Egypt is the one having to cut off its tail to survive. So, Xi's trip to Egypt didn't work, but he felt that personally commanding the Houthis in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait to mess with Yemen and Saudi Arabia would work. Why mess with Saudi Arabia? It's just because he felt that Saudi Arabia's alternative oil supply during the past six months of attacking Iran—in Xi's mind—was the reason he failed to push up oil prices, not because the U.S. was powerful, but because Saudi Arabia could still supply oil. If I mess with Saudi Arabia, destroy your pipelines, and destroy your exports, won't oil prices go up? So, if you look at the past ten days or so, starting from August when Xi began pushing propaganda for the Houthis, especially after he went to Egypt, and coupled with the recent so-called 'unstoppable' Houthi movement, it's as if the U.S., Saudi Arabia, and Israel are all useless, and the Houthis have suddenly become the world's most powerful military force, unstoppable. And the global energy market was supposed to be turned upside down, with energy prices soaring. The CCP's main strategy is: 'I don't care if I have oil or not; as long as I make sure you don't have any, I win. As long as I tighten my belt and gnaw on tree bark and roots for a few days longer than you, I'll outlive you.' Is that really how it works? Today, when oil prices dropped, did you notice that whether you go to Iran or have Wang Yi talk to Araghchi, it's actually useless? You thought that by stirring up the Houthis, and even though Iran is already half-dead, you could still demonstrate the CCP's leading power—one hand on the Strait of Hormuz, the other on the Yemen-Red Sea—but you don't dare to touch them. Even Wang Yi, when he went to talk to Iran's Araghchi about Xi Jinping's four-point initiative for his visit to Egypt, wasn't it ultimately just to say that our Chairman Xi has personally sat as the vanguard of the era, rushing to Egypt, rushing to the front lines of the war, to help you, Iran, strengthen communication and coordination?"

We are gathering all the forces we can for you; as long as there is anyone alive and usable, we are rounding them up for you. As long as you, Iran, hold your ground and act as your 'Ice Sculpture Company' or 'Huang Jiguang,' we have plenty of support behind you. We want to push for new progress in China-Iran relations. The CCP aims to lead the entire Middle East, ensuring that the discourse power in this region returns to the hands of the CCP. Then look at Araghchi and Wang Yi; the CCP calls this 'informing about the next steps.' Plainly speaking, this means you, Iran, are one level lower than the CCP; the CCP is the boss, and Iran is here to report. And this Araghchi, he is a high-level 'black' (troll/saboteur); if you don't believe it, just wait and see. Even if he really went over to give Xi this reassurance, saying they agree, believe the memorandum is still effective, have reached a Hormuz Strait plan with Oman, hope President Xi will continue to lead this direction, push for deeper development of relations, and then push the U.S. to fulfill its commitments—don't you think this is Araghchi roasting Xi over a fire? In this current state, the CCP feels that Iran sounds very cooperative, acting subservient, and that President Xi is indeed powerful. Although President Xi went to India and was 'handled' by them, coming back to see Iran, this wounded little heart has been comforted again. But think about it from another angle: this Hormuz Strait, did Oman go to the meeting? Didn't Oman already 'run away to the bathroom'? Saying, 'You, Iran, want to hold this Hormuz Strait meeting, but I can't participate right now; I have all sorts of things to do, I can't hold it in anymore and need to go to the restroom, wait for me a few more days.' Oman didn't go, so where was the plan reached? Let alone implemented. And this memorandum of understanding, Araghchi says they consider it effective—who are 'they'? Are they cardboard cutouts? Even the cardboard cutout Mojtaba might not be able to figure out where his legs are right now. Whether Araghchi wants it or not is even less important; Araghchi just wants to know if he can hurry up and find a stable life for his later years, just like Rodriguez. He welcomes you, Xi, to personally take the lead; not only personally taking your CCP out to charge, but you must also personally take us, Iran, and those remaining terrorists in Iran out to charge. That is what you call being the vanguard of the era forever. So as long as you, Xi, are charging in front, I will be there clapping and welcoming you. You, Xi, must rush in front of Trump. On September 24th, when you arrive in the U.S., you go and propose to Trump yourself that he compromise with Iran, give Iran the leading power, and have Trump withdraw from the Middle East, turning it into a grand strategy led by your CCP. This big game of chess is being played by Xi himself; if this isn't roasting Xi over a fire, what is? And yet the CCP is still bragging about it here; it really is a bunch of brainless people following a brainless leader in circles.

What is the U.S. saying? Trump first said that it is up to me, Trump, to decide when to engage with Iran, and this was something Trump issued back on September 14. Trump said at the time that oil prices would plummet after the conflict ends. At that time, two days before September 14, if you had said oil prices would fall, most people wouldn't have believed it, because from September 14 to 15 and up until this morning, oil prices were still climbing. But look at it now; it fell just as he said it would. So, once the conflict ends, oil prices falling is just a matter of time; there's no suspense there. Furthermore, Trump said that those countries that are of no help must compensate the U.S. Isn't that exactly what Trump said back then: if you don't sign the Abraham Accords, you have ulterior motives, and you have to pay me the protection fee for your guardian angel? Now, Saudi Arabia, caught in that vortex, is truly laughable. Saudi Arabia thought it could spin back and forth between China, the U.S., and Iran, but look at the U.S. now: I emotionally understand the pain Saudi Arabia is suffering, but I can only provide intelligence support; I absolutely cannot provide U.S. military support. My U.S. military—even you, Saudi Arabia, said you don't support attacking Iran, begging me to do you a favor and not move the U.S. military there. Now, the Mandeb Strait and Yemen are even more of a national interest to my U.S. military—that's a world of difference. The U.S. didn't have any national interests there to begin with, so how could I deploy the U.S. military to help you? Saudi Arabia is making a fool of itself. Why did Saudi Arabia fight so miserably these past few days? Although it's because the U.S. isn't helping, you should at least have some self-respect. You are a sovereign state, aren't you? Aren't you the one signing housing deals with the CCP one day and running off to buy military equipment elsewhere the next, jumping back and forth? Did you notice why Saudi Arabia suffered such a miserable defeat recently? Haven't reports come out saying that when Yemen fought Saudi Arabia, they ended up capturing those Dongfeng-15 missiles that the CCP used to brag about so wildly—the so-called "great power weapon"? That's how the CCP boasted at the time. The CCP said we now have the Dongfeng-16, 17, etc., so the Dongfeng-15A has been relegated to the second line. Therefore, these retired Dongfeng-15A missiles were taken by Middle Eastern big spenders like Saudi Arabia as family heirlooms. Back when they were bragging about this Dongfeng-15A in the 90s, they called it a "one-shot throat-slitter," the primary deterrent weapon against the Taiwan Strait, comparing it to the Soviet Scud missiles. In the 90s, it was promoted as the world's most advanced and powerful short-range missile, and various new types of missiles were later derived from it. We don't know what you thought of the Scud back then, nor do we know if it was as powerful as you boasted when attacking other countries, but we have seen it. Recently, when Yemen fought Saudi Arabia, we saw the long-lost Dongfeng-15A appear in the desert, falling directly into the hands of the Houthis. The Houthis looked at the wreckage of the Dongfeng-15A missile booster that had fallen and said this was the first time the Royal Saudi Strategic Missile Force had deployed this heirloom bought from China for live-fire strikes. Because back in 2013, after Xi came to power, Saudi Arabia high-profilely announced that the CCP had given them a model of this Dongfeng-15A missile, promoting it widely. This was the first time they high-profilely let the outside world know that we gave this retired Dongfeng-15A to Saudi Arabia as a family heirloom. Now everyone has finally caught a glimpse of the majestic sight of Saudi Arabia launching a Dongfeng-15A, and you can see that this thing didn't work, causing Saudi Arabia to retreat steadily these days. Look at those Houthis in the middle of the night, looking at the wreckage of the 15A—how did the CCP's heirloom sent to a good friend immediately end up in the hands of that friend's enemy? How do you explain this? Clearly, this is extremely unsatisfactory; the first battle was not a success, and the Houthis collected the booster, fairing, and everything else for themselves. Look at what you buy from the CCP—let's just say, whoever buys CCP military equipment knows what it's like. As for why there are only good reviews and no bad ones, it's because you haven't had a chance to use it yet when you receive it, so you give a good review. "Please give a five-star review upon receipt, and we will refund you five yuan." This Taobao-style tactic of the CCP is used in Venezuela, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Bangladesh. "Please give a five-star review after receipt, and we will refund you directly to your personal account." But the moment you actually use it, look at how Maduro was plucked from his bedroom into a helicopter under the protection of CCP radar, or how Khamenei was "sublimated" by 30 bombs while inside a reinforced underground bunker built by the CCP. In Bangladesh, the Type 59 upgrades—whether it's the Type 69 or Type 59 upgrade, they are all CCP foreign trade military products, all touted as "great power weapons." Why do they keep exploding in the chamber, one after another? We've said that now the Dongfeng missiles have finally been brought out for inspection, and Saudi Arabia took them as heirlooms, only for them to immediately reveal their true colors. No wonder there are no bad reviews; those who would leave bad reviews never get the chance to leave them in time. There are only five-star reviews with cash-back. I really admire this CCP tactic; just ask yourself, who would dare to buy from them? In reality, Saudi Arabia isn't that brainless either. The Houthis came out and said that in the past 24 hours, Saudi Arabia used this CCP-made Dongfeng-15A, and the Chinese-made drones used by Saudi Arabia were also continuously shot down by the Houthis. The Houthis displayed at least three or four Chinese-made drones. Now the question arises: between your spear and your shield, which one is actually more powerful?

What you gave to Saudi Arabia were your drones, and what you gave to the Houthis, wasn't that also your anti-drone capability? So, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is on one hand bragging that its drones are invincible, while on the other hand selling these invincible anti-drone weapons; it's quite interesting to see them go head-to-head. At the very least, at this juncture, we saw that when Saudi Arabia's drones faced the Houthis' anti-drone forces, they fell from the sky one by one. Of course, the Houthis are not like Iran, which only knows how to brag desperately; the Houthis are quite interesting. After experiencing the phase where Saudi Arabia deployed Chinese drones and Chinese Dongfeng missiles, only to suffer a crushing defeat that caused oil prices to rise, the Houthis now seem to have new developments in the past 24 hours.

Saudi Arabia seems to be turning the tables. A Houthi spokesman stated that not only have Saudi Arabia's current oil prices started to drop, but within the past 24 hours, Saudi Arabia replaced its fighter jets with American-made F-15s. The Houthi spokesman claimed that Saudi Arabia used F-15s taking off from air force bases to launch 40 airstrikes in the past 24 hours, targeting Houthi locations in at least three provinces in Yemen. This happened just as the Houthis were making significant advances, and the Houthi spokesman gave a relatively objective statement of facts. From this point, it is clear that when using goods from the Chinese Communist Party, whoever uses them knows their quality; but after switching to American goods, within less than 24 hours, the situation began to reverse.

It is no wonder that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is stepping back. The Chinese Communist Party went to negotiate with the United States, saying we know you are the most powerful. Trump then stated that Iran is eagerly trying to reach an agreement, and whether the United States will talk with them is up to the United States, which maintains an open attitude. Trump could say that since Xi Jinping has now had Wang Yi send a message wanting to dominate this situation and push for a return to the ceasefire memorandum track, Xi Jinping should come over and talk first. Trump said not to pretend to be sick over there; whether to engage with Iran is up to Trump, not the Chinese Communist Party. However, the Chinese Communist Party has already met with Iran, and Iran has also expressed its hope that the Chinese Communist Party will help reach an agreement with the United States to return to a ceasefire. During this process, Trump explicitly stated that oil continues to flow through the Strait of Hormuz, while those countries provide no help to the United States, and after the conflict completely ends, the relevant parties will be made to pay compensation. Americans cannot keep giving to others more than to themselves.

Trump also stated that the rise in prices was caused by the Biden administration, and the currently rising oil prices still do not reach the peak levels of the Biden era. Trump said they also prevented Iran from possessing nuclear weapons; for now, oil prices have not yet rebounded, but all other prices are falling back. U.S. rental prices are indeed dropping, especially after a large number of illegal immigrants were arrested and the Chinese Communist Party's secret agents were cleaned out. Trump believes that when the military conflict eventually ends, oil prices will plummet straight down, and that day will not be too far off.

During this process, Wang Yi came out to send a message to Araghchi. Although the two parties in the United States argue with each other all day long, once today's sanctions against Russia came out, it was clear what they meant. The two parties are united in defending national interests. Ted Cruz came out to speak, pointing out that we are witnessing a brand new and dangerous alliance—the red-green alliance, meaning that communists and Islamists are joining forces and taking over the Democratic Party. The reason they have united is that they share common enemies: they hate Christians, Jews, capitalism, the U.S. Constitution, and they also hate America.

Cruz stated that communism is not a theoretical concept for his family; his family members have shed blood and were imprisoned and tortured by Cuban communists. This is what communists do, from the Soviet gulags to the persecution of Christians during the Mao Zedong era, and from the killing fields of Cambodia to the hunger and misery in North Korea, Venezuela, Nicaragua, and Cuba. Similarly, Islamism also breeds murder and oppression, from mandatory veiling and the execution of rape victims to the systematic killing of homosexuals, honor killings, and the savage atrocities demonstrated in the October 7 attacks and the September 11 attacks.

When the U.S. two parties voted to sanction Russia, they were actually striking at the Chinese Communist Party. Cruz's words actually point out that the far-left forces within the Democratic Party run counter to the national interests of the United States. Striking Iran is actually striking the extremist regimes allied with communism and the Chinese Communist Party, and striking their related terrorist proxies. When Iran is battered to a certain extent, the issues of communism will then be brought to the table. In the red-and-green alliance, communism symbolizes red, and Islamists symbolize green. Back when Guo Wengui was running massive live streams, he often played with two Statues of Liberty—one red and one green. It was later confirmed that he actually dyed the Statue of Liberty red. After he was arrested, it was uncovered that the large desk he used to show off during live streams was specially built in the shape of a B-2 stealth bomber, actually implying that inside his fake anti-communist group there were Chinese Communist Party agents buying land next to the Whiteman Air Force Board under the banner of the New Federal State of China. By putting the red and green Statues of Liberty together, he was also actually implying that the Chinese Communist Party is a combination of communism and extremist Islamic fundamentalist terrorists, destroying American freedom inside the United States, and subverting America's freedom, democracy, and universal values system from the inside out like cancer cells.

Now facing diplomatic dilemmas, Xi Jinping has no choice but to get close to Iran even if he doesn't want to, and despite holding onto Russia, he is forced to turn against Russia under pressure. Such diplomatic maneuvering has tied himself into a dilemma, facing a passive situation.
