🇹🇭🇺🇸FLASHBACK: My Warning Last Year about US-Backed Thai Opposition Helping to Light Asia on Fire through US-Backed Conflict
VIDEO: https://youtu.be/myoFh1sL9rw?si=kk14uxFv8FAqqFEa
▪️The current Thai government was opposition until recently - and was openly working with the US government to destabilize the region through regime change operations including armed conflict in neighboring Myanmar;
▪️This video discusses irrefutable evidence of a US government-organized "seminar" held by the US-backed Thai opposition in Thai Parliament, inviting US-funded/backed Myanmar opposition groups including those involved in armed conflict with Myanmar's military/government;
▪️The seminar was opposed by the Thai military which exists as an independent institution, separate from the government, and has repeatedly removed US-backed client regimes put into power in 2006 and 2014 through coups;
▪️I warned that the US would continue cultivating conflict within each Asian nation, and between them through US-backed opposition in each regional nation - and now the US-backed opposition in Thailand (one of two factions) is in office and accelerating instability;
▪️The ultimate goal is to create a US-backed united front against China, and short of that, simply destabilize and destroy the region, denying China partners to build constructive ties with, and prevent both China's and Asia's rise (and surpassing of the West);
▪️Today, the ongoing conflict between Thailand-Cambodia represents another manifestation of this - at a time the Myanmar conflict continues, the US continues building up military forces in the Philippines, Japan, and South Korea (as well as the island province of Taiwan);
▪️BRICS/ASEAN need organizational/regional/national security laws and agreements to take back regional/national information space, combat US-European interference, and continue minimizing the West's economic and military leverage used to impose all of the above;

🇹🇭🇰🇭Footage shows Cambodian forces firing grad rockets from residential areas surrounded by civilian spectators.
Not only does this place civilians in danger when Thai forces find/strike these systems, these rockets being fired are unguided area-effect weapons incapable of precision strikes and are responsible for the majority of the civilian injuries and deaths on the Thai side (which includes many ethnic Cambodians living in Thailand).
Other videos show Cambodian troops dressed like civilians firing war weapons.

always remember - conflict and division suits the nation pursuing empire (US) - and disrupts multipolarism - so if you're looking for a motive - that is likely at the very absolute center - having a smaller nation attack a larger nation (think Georgia-Russia 2008) creates needless conflicts, animosity, suiting the interests of neither party of the conflict - and division in a world that would otherwise be moving forward together into multipolarism...

"While there appears to be relative calm following the 12-day armed conflict between U.S.-Israeli forces and Iran in June, the conflict itself and the implications it has both for the region and the world represent a continuous threat to global peace, stability and prosperity.
Understanding fully how and why the U.S. and Israeli forces launched this war of aggression against Iran should provide ample warning and lessons to learn regarding other nations the U.S. has designated "adversaries.""

🇹🇭🇰🇭 Update: Thai-Cambodian Conflict for July 28, 2025
▪️Fighting continues, both sides ignoring US President Trump's demands the fighting end, both sides have representatives in Malaysia (who holds the ASEAN chair) for talks;
▪️Fighting continues to be positional along the border, while Cambodia continues the use of unguided multiple-launch rockets with Thailand responding with airstrikes, artillery, and drones;
▪️Civilian casualties are higher on the Thai side because of Cambodia's use of unguided rockets to strike at populated areas, while military casualties are higher on the Cambodian side, including the recent death of a Cambodian general.
(Source: https://eacnews.asia/home/details/33252 )
▪️I had heard from a source in Cambodia that Cambodian troops were poorly equipped and poorly supplied despite preparing weeks ahead of time for this conflict, and now Cambodian media is trying tamp down growing concern inside the country regarding similar claims.
(source: https://www.khmertimeskh.com/501727105/first-lady-affirms-frontline-troops-have-sufficient-supplies/ );
▪️REMINDER: The misconception that "China backs Cambodia, the US backs Thailand" is incorrect and based on outdated/inaccurate metrics.
Thailand has a larger, more constructive relationship with China than it does with the US, and larger than Cambodia has with China.
The problem is following elections in 2023 - the current Thai government is headed by a US-backed billionaire at odds with Thailand's independent institutions which includes the Thai military itself.
This current government/its allies have taken steps to help the US destabilize Thailand and the region following nearly 10 years of a Thai military-backed administration pivoting to China;
▪️Both Thailand and Cambodia have Chinese military equipment - but Thailand by far has larger numbers and varieties of Chinese equipment ranging from tanks/APCs/IFVs to air defense systems, MLRS, and naval vessels despite having previously purchased (and still possessing) US/European equipment;
I will continue keeping an eye on this conflict and providing updates as they come.
🇹🇭🇰🇭Thai-Cambodia Conflict: Warning Signs
Back in June, Cambodia's Hun Sen at the UN compared Thailand's "aggression" to Russia vs. Ukraine.
For those who think Cambodia is a proxy of China or working in China or the multipolar world's interest, try fitting this pattern of adopting US narratives and appealing to Western-controlled institutions to resolve a conflict it itself, together with long time ally, US-backed billionaire Thaksin Shinawatra created in the first place.
The end result is violence threatening to destabilize the entire region, and provide the US an opportunity it is already using to insert itself into the conflict.

🇹🇭🇰🇭NEW VIDEO: Thai-Cambodian Conflict: Who Benefits from Regional Chaos?
On YouTube: https://youtu.be/3vpN5q2Zkmg?si=unsFNutIOCzX7cbv
▪️Thailand and Cambodia exchange heavy fire along border region over disputed territory - the latest of a long-term dispute stretching back to French colonization of Cambodia;
▪️Despite the long-term nature of the dispute, actual clashes are rare and used opportunistically rather than as a genuine source of conflict;
▪️Despite Cold War myths, Thailand in recent years has developed a larger and deeper relationship with China than the US and far more significant than Cambodia’s relationship with China;
▪️Cambodia depends on the US as its primary export market and uses US dollars as local currency, a regional outlier where most nations primarily do business with China and the rest of Asia;
▪️The current government of Thailand is headed by US-backed billionaire Thaksin Shinawatra (via his daughter), who is a close friend and collaborator with Cambodia’s Hun Sen;
▪️The conflict serves neither Thai nor Cambodian interests, and instead meshes into the US policy of “extending” targeted nations by creating a multitude of conflicts along its periphery - a strategy the US has used against Thailand, and has used against China by disrupting peace and prosperity in Southeast Asia in general;

🇹🇭🇰🇭 My comments with RT regarding the Thai-Cambodian conflict...
Читать полностью…🇹🇭🇰🇭 Question: What does Cambodia gain by attacking a larger, more powerful Thailand over a border dispute rooted in French-US colonialism?
Answer: Cambodia will gain nothing, that is one of the downsides of being under the influence of a malicious global power like the US .
Cambodia serves US interests entirely at its own expense - like Georgia in 2008 and Ukraine from 2014 onward.
As in the past, Thailand will use restraint and attempt to end this as quickly as possible.
China will urge peace/stability so the region can continue uniting/rising out from under and beyond Western primacy, interference, and the division used to impose and maintain both.
Bottom line: ASEAN + China are uniting and rising, the US seeks to stop this.
The US is investing in political division & even terrorism within ASEAN states as well as creating conflict between them and China, to serve its primary geopolitical objective: US primacy over Asia.
🇹🇭🇰🇭 Operational Security in Thai-Cambodian Conflict & other Considerations...
▪️There are already reports that sloppy opsec by Cambodia has allowed Thai forces monitoring social media to target and destroy Cambodian MLRS positions;
▪️As learned at high cost during the conflict in Ukraine, strict security must be maintained regarding social media as well as mobile phone use;
▪️Thailand especially must prevent Western "journalists" and their US-NED funded counterparts from access to the conflict zone - they act essentially as both propagandists and spies for the enemy and have in the past transmitted information used to target military and civilians in war zones around the globe;
▪️If inviting "international" (Western) media in is believed to be necessary to get Thailand's side of the story out to the world - you've already lost the information war.
This is why Thailand (and all other nations) need their own independent local/international media platforms serving THAI interests because often the West will be working deliberately against your interests at times like this - also, local media lined with Western-"educated" (indoctrinated) "journalists" (propagandists) is simply locally-funded Western propaganda;
▪️It appears that Thailand's military has been studying the conflict in Ukraine and has already adopted many tactics successfully used there including drone-drops and the use of drones for ISR along the front lines - Cambodia is also said to have drones and anti-drone systems;
▪️The best scenario of all is preventing these type of conflicts from starting in the first place - which requires much better information/political/educational security within Thailand and across ASEAN as a whole - strategies developed to eliminate US interference and the prospect of proxy conflicts within ASEAN member state borders and ASEAN's collective borders entirely;
🇹🇭🇰🇭 External Factors Regarding Thai-Cambodian Conflict ...
▪️While ASEAN is growing closer to China, Thailand has done so to a greater extent than Cambodia;
▪️Look at this 2023 summary of Thai and Cambodian exports per partner - Thai exports are around 18% (14% China, 4% Hong Kong which is still China) while exports to the US are 16%. The majority of Thai exports are to other destinations in Asia;
▪️Cambodian exports are overwhelmingly dependent on the US and the West in general with a minority of exports going to other nations within Asia itself - the US dollar itself is used for transactions INSIDE Cambodia itself;
▪️While not an absolute metric, this economic dependence on the US manifests itself in Washington's ability to pressure, coerce, and otherwise shape policies of a target nation;
▪️Cambodia has worked to reverse this - but as can be seen, US influence over Cambodia is still significant - this is in addition to US political interference which is extensive in both Thailand & Cambodia;
🇹🇭🇰🇭On the Recent Thailand-Cambodia Conflict - Details the Western Media Won't Report
▪️Following Thai soldiers injured by Cambodian-placed mines along a disputed border and downgraded diplomatic ties, Cambodia has launched Grad MLRS strikes on populated areas causing indiscriminate death and destruction;
▪️Thai forces are responding with greater but still measured force against Cambodian military targets near disputed areas - Thailand's military is several times larger in size than Cambodia's and possesses vastly greater capabilities than Cambodia calling into further suspicion Cambodia's provocative actions;
▪️Western media is pretending not to know who started the shooting and is deliberately trying to link China to Cambodia and its actions - however - Thailand has a by far larger relationship with China than Cambodia and by far greater amounts of modern weapons from China than Cambodia including a Chinese main battle tank fleet, long-range precision guided rocket launchers, drones, APCs/IFVs, and Chinese air defense systems;
▪️This border dispute has erupted into violence over the past years (2008 and 2011) - at both previous junctures US-backed client regimes were either struggling to stay in power or were attempting to get into power - and now fighting has begun again as a US-backed client regime is likewise hanging in the balance;
▪️Cambodian PM Hun Sen, while having a growing relationship with China and having been targeted by US-backed regime change himself, has systematically aided US-backed sedition in neighboring Thailand for 20 years - Cambodia also maintains the US as its largest and most important export market - an outlier in Southeast Asia which mostly exports to China and others in the region;
▪️Like every other conflict around the globe, people need to be cautious about accepting Western news reports at face value - this will NOT be the "first" conflict they report on honestly and without ulterior motives;
🎙Same topic but with Jamarl Thomas: https://youtu.be/unv8K76Q4Nw?si=O7CZ3j2LE6t8iDD_
Читать полностью…🇺🇸 US Tariffs & Economic Coercion Amid Global Drive Toward War
Looks like Indonesia is in large part surrending economic sovereignty to the US.
It will drop all tariffs and other barriers on US products while the US keeps in place tariffs on Indonesian exports.
Tariffs will increase on any product containing inputs from nations like China.
It also forces Indonesia to allow products into the country that don't meet their own standards as long as they meet US standards - incredibly dangerous considering US regulatory bodies like the FDA work for corporate profits, not public safety.
The US will likely force this same deal on everyone else in the region and it's just one step toward forcing the region into surrendering to US sanctions vs. Russia and eventually China.
People keep missing US political coercion and capture as its primary and most dangerous weapon - capable of stripping away a nation's sovereignty without firing a shot.
Without the means to protect a nation's information space, political and education systems, and without significant economic independence from coercive nations like the US, a nation will become a victim, the damage will increase overtime, as the final goal is draining and destroying these nations and their economies completely...
This is how empires of a few have always ruled over other nations of many.
