2 Soodies are the principal financers of the Islamic "peaceful" invasion.

p.s. I understand why Russians supply Iran & Houties - the less oil from ME, the better their oil/gas business. But why China - who is the biggest importer of ME oil?

3 RE #2: Grom, for China anything that hinders the West in any way is good, and they will support it. Trouble in the Muddled East forces up the price of oil. China can print all the Yuan they need, and the West's appetite for Chinese cheap products provides the financial backing for their money. China wants to destabilize the entire world, and anything that promotes that end is welcome and supported. China doesn't want to just be the biggest dog, it wants to be the ONLY dog. Until our politicians grasp that, we're in trouble.
