China’s leader Xi Jinping will meet President Biden Nov. 15 in San Francisco with four high cards in his hand. Policy advisers close to Xi express an unprecedented kind of confidence in China’s strategic position.
First, the collapse of Ukraine’s offensive against Russian forces and its commander’s admission that the war is a “stalemate” is a setback for America’s strategic position and a gain for China, which has doubled its exports to Russia since the February 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
Second, the US tech war on China has flopped, as Chinese AI firms buy fast Huawei processers in place of chips from Nvidia and other US producers.
Third, the Gaza war provoked by Hamas on October 7 gives China a free option to act as the de facto leader of the Global South in opposition to Israel, an American ally. China now exports more to the Muslim world than it does to the United States.
And fourth, the US military wants to avoid confrontation with China in the Northwest Pacific region as well as its home waters in the South China Sea, where the PLA’s thousands of surface-to-ship missiles and nearly 1,000 fourth- and fifth-generation warplanes give China an overwhelming home-theater advantage in firepower.

Biden to Xi Jinping: “Go Fish”
Xii has the flight list for visitors to Epstein Island.
Xi peering down at the cowering Biden bowing before him:
你最好在日落之前出城，伙伴
You better be out of town before sundown, partner.🤠
Xi is coming to our country to give orders to his bitch.
Just imagine all of the back-channel communications going on between the Chicoms and all of Hussein’s minions. The entire world knows that Hussein and Hussein’s Puppet Masters are in charge. Remember, when Hussein’s teleprompter failed, he babbled and babbled.
The Oct 7 Hamas attack on Israel, gives China free rein to advance
itself as de facto leader of the Global South in opposition to Israel.
FACTS ON FILE
<><>As of 2022, China was Israel’s 2nd largest trading partner,
<><>total trade value reached a whopping $24.45 billion.
<><>China sided w/ Hamas’ brutality against Israel.
<><>China said Israel’s ground incursion into Gaza went beyond self-defense
BACKSTORY-—the Trump administration had restricted sensitive US technological exports to China. As a result, China turned to cooperative Israel. China’s direct investment in Israel’s IT industry, especially in chips and semiconductors, now has increased.
In 2017, Israeli PM Netanyahu said China accounts for one-third of the investment in Israeli high technology, which includes US military technology the US shares w/ Israel, since Israel believes it is the US’ strongest ally.
In the ’90s, Israel sold military equipment and technologies to China, including the Harpy missile system. This incident chilled relations between the United States and Israel, with Israel being suspended from its status as a US Security Cooperative Participant in the Joint Strike Fighter program. However, on 6 Nov 2005, Israel stated that it had been re-admitted into the program.
The US had to pressure its strongest ally, Israel, to stop sharing US military technology w/ China.
Yet Israel still doesn’t restrict China from acquiring dual-usage technologies that could have military implications that undermines the safety and security of American families.
A succession of US administrations warned Israel about its growing tie with China, sharing concern about China using Israel as a backdoor to access sensitive technologies from the US.
The most vocal objection to Sino-Israeli ties came from the Trump administration. When former Secy of State Mike Pompeo visited Israel in 2019, he warned Israelis that the CCP “engages in spying through its commercial state-owned enterprises and presents risk through its technology systems. Pompeo said China’s actions posed a risk.
Unfortunately, Israel largely brushed aside the warnings. Like many other countries, China’s massive market has enticed Israel. Plus, the Israeli government hoped China’s good relationships with Arab nations might help Israel.
This year, Netanyahu was working on a Sino-Israeli free trade agreement and planned to visit China. But China’s siding w/ Hamas should wake up Israel’s leaders to the reality that Communist China’s relationship with Israel is a cause for concern.
We are a global power and the PRC is a threat to us.
Israel is a regional power and sees no threat in the PRC.
Forgot to mention the wild card, Biden is a blooming idiot.
I brought my own cards, Jack!
"I am the President of the People's Republic of China, not the owner of your cleaners."
Slo Jo has 2 jokers, a two and a Uno card.
Crap and nonsense.
Biden is Xi’s because Biden is corrupt.
Brandon has been briefed with a pair of "deuces".
Xii and Obama have already made the deal.
Xii is just coming here to get a first hand look at his new colony.
Parts of San Francisco was cleaned up of the drug addicts / holeless jsu so Xi would not see them.
The democrats can clean up a city if a communist mass murderer shows up but will not clean up to help America.
