All;
Don’t see the issue here. Most of us (in this corner of the political triangle) don’t exactly favor US hegemony that spreads the leftist virus.
This move is a Simple pragmatism by all parties to insure the stability of oil to china who is far more dependent on it than the west ever was. CN can’t afford a gulf war conflict.
Is it meaningful? have the BRICS been meaningful? Nope.
Threat to security? Don’t see it. We have no strategic interests there any longer, and it’s been a sink for us.
Threat to the dollar? A long time if so. Would it matter? Very unlikely. US is very likely to absorb all world capital if any of the predicted changes in geoeconomic shift occur.
Can they form a block for authoritarian countries vs rule of law countries? Sure. Does it matter? I doubt it. It would weaken western debt capacity. It would keep the world financial system a bit more honest. Instead of one hegemon as now, or ten empires as in history, can we effectively have two or three? Sure. Fine. Is there such reason for war between us? Possibly. All three are territorially aggressor empires.
What does this mean for Israel? Assuming anyone cares in this feed (which I sort of doubt) I don’t think so. Stability serves Israel’s interests.
The world is going to look more like the 18th century but with fewer ’empires’. That is, until the current generations age out. The internet is accomplishing more than our propaganda ever did. And I assume that the progress toward self-determination will play out as the world-island center civilizes, Russian and Chinese populations collapse, and the middle east spends another century trying to recover from ww1 border fiascos.
Any wisdom, pls share it. 😉
