I have just been on the phone to an old friend and he informed me of the Trump air strike. It is early to try and work out what that is all about. I personally think that it was primarily aimed at China and Trump's deteriorating domestic situation. I always feared that Trump would get a 9/11 to bail him out of trouble. That has nto happened yet, but he may have invented his own crisis. I suspect the Chinese are frightened by Trump - frightened by his irrationality. His corruption of course would be welcome to the Chinese oligarchy and they would be very comfortable with it. But they are dealing with a creature whose grip on sanity never mind power is very unstable. Trump could miscalculate. He could make a mistake & then we would all be in trouble. comradely Gary _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
