The former commander of the Chinese Navy, in a new book about China's future naval strategy, states that in the 1980s, China initially sought to build very large combat vessels with high defense capabilities based on a Soviet model. However, it quickly realized that it couldn’t defend its ships in the deep ocean without support from fighter jets. Therefore, it turned to aircraft carriers. He says that all their simulations have shown that no matter how powerful a carrier strike group is, it cannot defend itself in the deep ocean if attacked by enemy aircraft carriers. That’s why fighter jets are essential for providing cover for the strike group from hundreds of kilometers away. In parts of his memoir, he mentions that since the 1990s, the thinking in China has been that defeating the United States is impossible without control over parts of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Well, at least they clearly state their objectives.

The terms of the Israel-Hamas agreement, published by Al-Mayadeen, show no indication of any group other than Hamas taking control of Gaza. This means it is only a matter of time before Hamas regains its power! 🔹️ Israeli forces must fully withdraw to the borders from all areas of the Gaza Strip. 🔹️ The Rafah crossing will be opened, and Israel will fully withdraw from it. 🔹️ The wounded will be transferred for treatment abroad, and 600 trucks carrying humanitarian aid will enter Gaza daily based on the humanitarian protocol monitored by Egypt. 🔹️ According to the ceasefire agreement, 200,000 tents and 60,000 prefabricated units will be brought into Gaza for emergency housing. 🔹️ Israeli prisons will release all women and children under the age of 19. 🔹️ Israel will gradually withdraw from the Nitsarim crossing and the Philadelphia corridor.

The idea of reducing government spending is a great one, but why should this reduction in government expenses target social services? Defense budgets are spent on producing outdated and unnecessary equipment that doesn't even enhance national security. Government contracts often involve projects that either never get completed or face costs that are several times over the original budget. Subsidies are allocated to industries like oil and gas, despite these companies being highly profitable. Subsidy programs, which should benefit low-income industries, often end up going to companies and individuals who don't even need them. And countless other examples. If all this isn't in the interest of internal mafias, then what is it? Many of these excessive expenditures continued even under Trump’s administration. Yet, where do they ultimately find the strength to cut costs? Social services—precisely the area that should see an increase in funding!
