Time flies, and the world ushers in 2008 in peace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

With a large delegation from Syria visiting the four OECD countries, President Bashar al-Assad, who was caught between the left and right, finally let go of his mind.

Syria's attitude is clear: there are those who rejoice, and there are those who smash the cup. Facts have proven that the United States and France have failed in their attempts to break this alternative anti-American alliance from within the Third Economic Cooperation and Development Organization (OECD), and the possibility of a peaceful settlement of the confrontation and threats of the Third Economic Cooperation and Development Organization (OECD) has become less and less likely.

Ordinary people do not feel this kind of change, but those who are interested find that the recent frequent diplomatic conferences held by Europe, the United States and Western countries at a higher level seem to be plotting something.

Economically, the United States and other Western countries continue to impose economic sanctions and technological blockades on the Third Economic Cooperation and Development Organization (OECD), and in the foreign trade of several countries, they have put political and economic pressure on third countries and frequently made small moves that are not inconspicuous.

Militarily, the two aircraft carrier battle groups hovering in the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea have not withdrawn one, and the aircraft carriers 'Nimitz' and 'Enterprise' are still the most important force for the United States to deter 'careerists' in its neighborhood.

With regard to the Third OECD, the United States seems to maintain strong military pressure, mainly political and diplomatic offensives. However, the two main strategic core points of the United States, Iraq and Afghanistan, are not so 'merciful', especially in Iraq, with the growth of Saddam's Iraq Liberation Front, the US military not only mobilized 200,000 troops, but also through a series of behind-the-scenes transactions, so that Britain and Afghanistan both sent a second batch of soldiers into Iraq again, in the name of maintaining stability in Iraq.

The evolution of the situation in Iraq and the sharpness of the contradictions have gradually taken on the form of a quagmire of war, and it is impossible for the United States to give up the interests of spending hundreds of billions of dollars and thousands of soldiers to 'capture' it, and Britain is because it is the most deeply involved in its relations with the United States and in the Iraq incident, so it has to pinch its nose and devote more strength.

Everyone knows very well that the situation in Iraq is not because of the emergence of Saddam Hussein, not because the Iraqis are really too patriotic, but because there are countless forces dissatisfied with the United States or with other goals who are fanning the flames behind their backs, giving money and materials to fund proxies to attack and harass the Iraqi US military, and the West is giving the United States more blood and distracting more of its energy so that it can grow its strength and seek development.

On the one hand, the United States has actively launched secret consultations with some countries in an attempt to force the other side to give up its support for the anti-American guerrillas in Iraq through the interests of other parties, and on the other hand, it has banned the flow of arms and arms through a strict blockade of the Iraqi border.

After spending so much money and effort in Iraq, and it is closely related to the global strategy, the Americans will never give up here. Unless at some point the United States finds out, it gets more from Iraq than it gives.

Unlike Iraq, the situation in Afghanistan is one-sided, with the remnants of the Taliban retreating into a mountainous area of thousands of square kilometers near northern Pakistan as Afghan U.S. forces move step by step, similar to the 'three-light policy'.

Because Pakistan's new leader came to power, relations with the United States have changed from not supporting or opposing at the beginning to assisting the United States in combating the Taliban's transportation of weapons and personnel through the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, and trying to stop the Pakistani military's support for the Taliban and other Afghan militant groups.

In this context, the situation of the Taliban is becoming more and more dangerous. Recently, there has been news that the United States intends to use a new weapon: a small tactical nuclear bomb in the Taliban concentration area in the mountainous areas of southern Afghanistan, and the Afghan military has become impatient in the face of domestic pressure and is trying to end the war in Afghanistan as soon as possible in a more drastic way.

As the war progressed, the resistance of the Taliban and al-Qaeda became more and more frenzied, and it is said that Comrade bin Laden and Comrade Omar intend to unite and launch a new scale of 'jihad' retaliation against the United States, in an attempt to bring a little life to the sinister situation in Afghanistan.

Every day, someone reports the most important part to Li Mo, and Li Mo is also preparing for the upcoming New Year in his spare time.

"Xiao Mo, your sister said that she will come back at the end of the month, and there is a foreign devil, you can help me keep an eye on it when the time comes." At home, Mother Li, who was teasing her grandson and granddaughter, saw that her son was going to go out, and said casually.

Li Mo smiled bitterly, he knew that his sister Li Qian had agreed to Michael's pursuit, and the two were about to return to Somalia to meet their parents.

Fang Yuxiang was a little dissatisfied with Li Qian finding a foreign man, Li Haojun didn't care, he had been abroad for more than two years, he had seen everything more thoroughly, it didn't matter if his son-in-law was Chinese or Western, and compared with those blacks he often saw locally, Li's father felt that Westerners were still more pleasing to the eye.

"Mom, Michael is a very good friend of mine, and I know him well, so I won't treat my sister badly, since my sister agreed, you shouldn't object." Regarding her sister Li Qian's marriage and love, how can Li Mo have time to interfere, anyway, as long as her sister agrees, she doesn't feel wronged.

However, he also knows that his mother is still the same rural woman in her bones, and although she has seen a lot more, the traditional concepts of decades are not so easy to reverse.

Hearing the perfunctory words in her son's words, Li's mother couldn't continue, so she had to babble to tease her grandson and granddaughter, for her, the two grandsons were already more than half of her life, and she didn't bother to care about the rest.

Glaring at Li Yanran, who was snickering next to him, Li Mo shook his head helplessly and went out.

Today he is going to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of the 'Great Triangle Railway Circle', this railway project is a key project proposed by Li Mo and approved by the political axe in 08, as the first railway trunk line in Somalia, both the role and significance are extraordinary.

In the western part of Mogadishu City, a flat area that has been cleaned up, countless people and cars have been pouring here since this morning.

Curious citizens already know that a railway station will be built here to connect the towns of Baidoa and Badada. What a train looks like, as long as modern people have not lived in the deep mountains and old forests for decades, they basically know, but in Somalia, there are still not many ordinary citizens who have taken the train. Although today is just a groundbreaking ceremony, it will take a year or even two to see the train and take the train, but this cannot stop curious citizens.

After the speeches of President Yusuf and the relevant officials of the Mogadishu Municipal Axe and the Huaxia Railway Construction Company, hundreds of railway workers who were ready to go to work with dozens of construction machines and construction were put into work.

The 'Great Triangle Railway Project' is a 1,200-kilometre-long railway project with a total investment of one billion dollars. According to the requirements of the project contractor and the Somali political axe, the project will start construction in three districts of Baidoa, Badada and Mogadishu at the same time, with construction in each area in one direction, which will save a lot of time and complete the railway project as soon as possible.

Unlike ordinary citizens, other forces at home and abroad saw Li Mo's blazing ambition in this railway plan. Once the 'Great Triangle Railway Plan' is completed, the Badada Town Industrial Park, the Baidoa Aviation Industrial Park and the Somali capital Mogadishu will be connected, and the transportation capacity will increase at the same time, the speed will also increase several times, and the completion of the railway plan will completely change the cost and time of the Star Group in the transportation of materials, militarily, the 'Great Triangle Railway' will completely link the Southern Military Region and the Capital Military Region, and have a far-reaching impact on the defense of southern Kenya and central and western Ethiopia.

Economically and militarily, the role of the railway is incalculable, and politically, the railway plan is also a very important part, that is, the increase of internal control.

Although Somalia is a coastal country, influenced by Arab culture, local tribes were severely hit during the Barre political axe period and the civil war, and after Li Mo took power, he also adopted a strategy of loosening the tribe outside and tightening it inside, first prohibiting the tribe from having a large-scale armed surname.

But no matter how Li Mo weakened the influence and strength of the tribe, at the local level, the influence of the tribe was still very strong, and many low-level political institutions were still in the hands of the tribe, and the tribal chieftain and nobles were a local emperor.

With the railway, the advanced culture and ideas of the foreign will inevitably gradually affect the strict control of the tribe over the tribesmen, and in addition, because of the railway, Li Mo is more convenient and rapid to mobilize the army, and it is also a deterrent to those tribes with ambitions.

At the groundbreaking ceremony of the railway, Li Mo only showed his face and did not speak. Now he no longer needs to expand his influence in a way that often appears in public. With the victories of several foreign wars and his tough posture, Li Mo is now the idol of the younger generation in Somalia, young people are hot-blooded and impulsive, and Li Mo's tough and uncompromising surname is naturally easy to be sought after and supported by young people.

When leaving, President Yusuf sent someone to invite Li Mo to join him in the car, Li Mo was amused in his heart, he knew that Yusuf was looking for him, and he knew what was going on.

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has personally called or sent representatives on several occasions to suggest that the 40 Defender tanks should be delivered to Syria.

It was because of Bashar's vacillating attitude that Li Mo decided to ban the delivery of new tanks to Syria. Although the Syrian political axe protested several times, Li Mo never let go.

This time, Bashar decided to reject the temptation of the United States and France, and firmly sided with the Third OECD, and it was time for the new tanks seized in his hands to be 'returned' to others.
