T4 Airbase in Syria Revealed After Israeli Strikes

Anadolu News Agency filmed the T4 Airbase in central Syria — a key site targeted by Israeli airstrikes.

• Located west of Palmyra in Homs, T4 is one of Syria’s largest and most strategic airbases. Built during the Cold War with Soviet help, it was a major hub for Assad’s air force.

• The base has also been used by Russian and Iranian forces.

• Israel has repeatedly struck the base, aiming to push out Iranian presence.

• Footage shows damaged radar systems, hit hangars, and decommissioned fighter jets.

Mao Zedong used his prestige as an insurrectionary leader to wage war on China’s bureaucratic and cultural elites. Trump is also using his power as the elected leader of an insurrectionary movement to overthrow the bureaucratic and cultural elites of the US.

Chinese think that this is a really good thing. America will be weaker. America has become a very unreliable trading partner and nobody really trusts it any more.

America's position is getting weaker and this can only help China.

Trump's actions are wonderful from the point of view of the Chinese.
