Lee Kuan Yew on Malta

You are still ignoring context (which includes the comment thread and topic being discussed, not simply my own comment in isolation; that's what context means) and sperging out. Singapore developed during a time where US-China relations were friendly. The current animosity is recent (post 2015) and previous animosities are pre-Singapore independence, so who cares.

There was never a time when US-China relations were friendly. You sound like the morons that believed US-Russia relations were friendly because Bush said he looked into Putin's eyes and saw a good man.

More moronic nonsense. The 'current animosity' dates back to obama's administration ( pre-2015 and post singapore independence ) when the state decided to focus on containing china. I know you are a moron that knows nothing, but Trump just piggybacked on obama's policy.

2009 - Obama pivots to asia to confront china.

2001 - Downing of american spy plane over china

1999 - Bombing of chinese embassy by the US.

As I said, why do morons like you comment authoritatively when you know absolutely nothing?
