Chapter 1148 Complex Situation
Fighters took off, dispatched F15 fighters and F16 fighters, to destroy Iraq's Scud launch sites.
As soon as Israel's 5 F15 fighters and 10 F16 fighters took off, they were discovered by the radar systems of Palestine, Syria, and Jordan.
Israel's territory is narrow and long without depth, and every move is difficult to hide from the radar system.
Fighters from Palestine, Syria, Jordan, and Lebanon took off one after another.
10 J-7 series fighters, 8 J-8 series fighters, 4 J-10E fighters and 1 J-11E fighter.
Even the Arab Coalition Air Force urgently took off 5 J-10E fighters and 2 J-11E fighters!
Israeli fighters took off and went to Iraq, which would inevitably violate the airspace of other countries.
And violating the airspace of other countries is violating the sovereignty of other countries, and other countries have the right to shoot them down.
If Israel wants to trigger another Middle East war, then they will accompany it to the end.
This is the dilemma in the Middle East!
If you are not careful, Israel's actions will trigger a Middle East war!
Even the United States has to handle it carefully.
After all, although the United States stands firmly behind Israel, it does not mean that the United States is willing to confront the entire Middle East Arab countries and become the enemy of the entire Middle East Arab countries.
Because the Middle East is related to world energy!
Similarly, it is also directly related to the American foundation of "petrodollars".
The United States bypassed the United Nations and unilaterally announced a war against Iraq. In the final analysis, it was for the "petrodollar" system and to stabilize the "petrodollar" system.
As for Iraq's possession of weapons of mass destruction and Iraq's support for al-Qaeda, this is just an excuse for the United States.
The complex situation in the Middle East has become more complicated as Iraq launched missile attacks on Israel.
Under strong pressure from the United States, Israel did not launch the seventh Middle East war in the end.
It is really that the United States is unwilling to be involved in the seventh Middle East war in the current situation and become the enemy of the entire Middle East Arab countries because of Israel.
In the two local wars of Afghanistan War and Iraq War at the same time, the United States has already felt that it is not enough and is really unable to be involved in a new war.
Once the seventh Middle East war breaks out, I am afraid that the United States will face the danger of failure in the Iraq War.
Because now, the Arab countries in the Middle East have the ability to blockade the Suez Canal, the Red Sea, the Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf.
Although the United States is strong, it is not that strong.
Otherwise, it would not have failed to take down Iraq until now.
Since the outbreak of the Iraq War, although there has been a truce for more than half a year due to some changes in the middle, the United States has used all advanced weapons and equipment except nuclear weapons during the war.
Six aircraft carriers were mobilized. Even if one aircraft carrier was severely damaged, the United States mobilized an aircraft carrier and other warships from other places to the Persian Gulf to replenish the losses.
And this time, the US military launched a large number of various air defense missiles, air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground missiles, ground-to-ground missiles, ship-to-ground missiles, and submarine-launched missiles. In terms of the Air Force, all the aircraft in service in the United States were mobilized, and even the B2 "Ghost" strategic bomber, which is known as the most advanced, was put into use.
This time also includes electronic warfare and information warfare. The US information warfare forces launched an attack on Iraq's Internet, but were defended.
So far, Iraq's navy and air defense forces have not been destroyed, which makes the United States realize that something is not good.
You know, according to the battle plan formulated at the beginning, the war was launched on March 20, and the war would end on June 20 at most. In three months at most, the joint forces could occupy the whole of Iraq and support a puppet government.
But it is September now, and the war is still going on.
At this time, no one in Hong Kong wears a mask anymore.
Since January, strict border and customs control measures have been implemented to ensure health safety.
In September, Hong Kong is still like summer, and the arrival of autumn cannot be felt.
Hong Kong is becoming more and more prosperous, and the start of school for hundreds of thousands of college students has added a youthful vitality to Hong Kong.
Starting this year, Hong Kong universities have participated in the national college entrance examination for the first time, and have conducted national enrollment through three channels: special enrollment, independent enrollment, and college entrance examination enrollment.
Like other universities in the mainland, these universities in Hong Kong have certain policy preferences for Hong Kong, allowing Hong Kong residents to better enter universities and study in colleges.
The admission scores of various universities in Hong Kong in Hong Kong are similar to the admission scores of various universities in Beijing in Beijing!
This is also the norm for various colleges and universities to recruit students in their local areas.
Although this is not fair to candidates from other provinces, where is there real absolute fairness in the world?
No!
There is no absolute fairness in the world, only relative fairness!
Liu Tao was listening to his secretary's report on the relevant situation. At this time, he was not only concerned about the arms trade, but also about other aspects of trade.
To be honest, the progress of the Iraq War and the Afghanistan War was quite unexpected to him, but he was very satisfied with the result.
The longer the US military's wars in Afghanistan and Iraq drag on, the less time it has to worry about the Asia-Pacific region.
Whether it is the ASEAN 10+1 strategy, the South Asia 14+1 strategy, or the Northeast Asia economic integration strategy, these all take time.
Politics, economy, culture, technology, military and other fields are both independent and intertwined.
In most places in the ASEAN region, post-war reconstruction is in full swing, rebuilding homes in the ruins. The entire mainland has set off another wave of going to Southeast Asia, and more people are going to Southeast Asia to make a living.
Some even bring their families to Southeast Asia to farm. In Southeast Asia, any person can get 100 acres of land, and three families can get 300 acres of land. In many places in the mainland, one person can only get three acres of land. Going to Southeast Asia, even if it is just farming, can make life more comfortable than in the mainland.
In South Asia, although it is also guarding against India's re-starting of the South Asian war, countries are preparing for war, but they are also developing the economy. And because the foundation is relatively weak, the development speed is still very fast.
Northeast Asia economic integration also requires a lot of effort. After all, Japan and South Korea both have US troops stationed there. It is estimated that regional economic integration will be later than "ASEAN 10+1" and "South Asia 14+1". Even "Central Asia 5+1" is estimated to be faster than Northeast Asia economic integration.
In South Asia, only India and Sri Lanka are missing. Others, including Maldives, have benefited greatly from this system and have now become a tourist destination.
The biggest obstacle for the five Central Asian countries is actually Russia. Russia has a very large influence in the five Central Asian countries and has always regarded the five Central Asian countries as its sphere of influence. At present, the economic and trade between the two sides is mainly in the fields of energy and minerals. More economic and trade are still being developed step by step. It is not so easy to open up the market. It needs to be done carefully step by step, and the interests involved must be handled well with Russia. (End of this chapter)
