gloom & doom (part 2)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_CeYOQ86Us After the visit of US foreign secretary Rex Tillerson to China Israeli News Live bring the news that there is troop-movement in Bejing. 

China must be getting tired of North Korea's testing of weapons. But China may be preparing to make its points clear towards the US in a "less friendly way". So far China did not choose military answers, tried to get more economic markets (via financial infrastructures, trade deals with a lot of countries). 

The US-Trump-administration seems to want more confrontation with both China and Iran. Both countries are working on answers-wich means escalation of war.

Russia is seeing the Israeli air force serving IS.)

The war for Syria seems to escalete with more US troops getting involved. Growing chances that Russia (or Syria, Iran) may shoot down western or Israeli airplanes above Syria. The Yemen war is also escalating-https://southfront.org/footage-houthi-forces-launching-ballistic-missile-against-military-airbase-near-saudi-capital/. 

"Moderate al-quada linked rebels" can not start their offensive in Damascus without foreign aid. Houthi-rebels can not fire missiles on Riyaad without foreign aid. 

North Korea is most likely preparing for a nuclear test far bigger than previous tests. Those tests did cause earthquakes in the region (the tests themselves with magnitudes M5+). http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/fail-or-succeed-the-next-north-korea-nuclear-test-could-be-a-disaster/article/2617762#!

Climate Change:

Pandemics: 

With more cases of humans both with H5N1 and H7N9 maybe worth noting that even if these virusses do not go Human-to-Human (H2H) stay bird-to-human they still can cause a lot of cases.
