    US arms producers eye their ultimate bid for trillions in development fees. But Russia is not fazed at all.

    “Let’s wait until our partners mature sufficiently to hold a level, meaningful conversation on this topic..”

    I love that Putin quote; “Let’s wait until our partners mature sufficiently;”; as if…
    I guess that’s the difference between a country with 2,000 years behind it and one with not quite 300…
    I’m doubtful the U.S. will make 300 under its present behavior.

    ——
    Its not correct to criticize the USA. Therefore, ….
    Surprise!!! Change one word –
    China to USA – and the predictions become even worst.

    So in order to keep the gravy train running, more debt had to be issued to build more stuff.
    The main problem of the Chinese economy is debt and overcapacity. Debt has blown up to 300 percent of GDP through the state-controlled banking system.
    Now, does this mean the other extreme is going to play out and people in Beijing will go back to riding only bicycles again? Probably not.
    Of course, there will be ups and downs and the QE as well as other government stimulus may boost activity for a little while, but not for long, writes Choyleva and advises investors to buckle up:
    “These tectonic shifts will make it a lot harder – if not impossible – for Beijing to count on the tried-and-tested tools of policy stimulus to restore sustainable growth. Unsettled as they are, global financial markets have yet to grasp that this time it really is different in China.”

    The following report seems to be the most accurate.

    How to wisely spend the wealth of a nation.

    Hummm!

    Maybe its only propaganda from Iran because it is afraid of being bombed by the USA

    It is not clear what the exact number of US troops in the Middle East is, but according to Pentagon data, America has about 54,000 troops in more than a dozen of Middle Eastern countries and is maintaining military bases in seven of them.

    Trump’s Brilliant Strategy to Dismember U.S. Dollar Hegemony
    The end of America’s unchallenged global economic dominance has arrived sooner than expected, thanks to the very same Neocons who gave the world the Iraq, Syria and the dirty wars in Latin America. Just as the Vietnam War drove the United States off gold by 1971, its sponsorship and funding of violent regime change wars against Venezuela and Syria – and threatening other countries with sanctions if they do not join this crusade – is now driving European and other nations to create their alternative financial institutions.
    This break has been building for quite some time, and was bound to occur. But who would have thought that Donald Trump would become the catalytic agent? No left-wing party, no socialist, anarchist or foreign nationalist leader anywhere in the world could have achieved what he is doing to break up the American Empire. The Deep State is reacting with shock at how this right-wing real estate grifter has been able to drive other countries to defend themselves by dismantling the U.S.-centered world order. To rub it in, he is using Bush and Reagan-era Neocon arsonists, John Bolton and now Elliott Abrams, to fan the flames in Venezuela. It is almost like a black political comedy. The world of international diplomacy is being turned inside-out. A world where there is no longer even a pretense that we might adhere to international norms, let alone laws or treaties…

    THE WEB is
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_eye

    It may consist of thousands of ommatidia,[1] which are tiny independent photoreception units that consist of a cornea, lens, and photoreceptor cells which distinguish brightness and color. The image perceived by the arthropod is a combination of inputs from the numerous ommatidia, which are oriented to point in slightly different directions.

    Each ommatidia feeding into a processor outputting a partial interpretation.
