Let us start with the most recent development: financial sanctions have inadvertently given rise to a new system that effectively bypasses both US and European sanctions.

Here is a look at US failures over the past decade:

· The war in Ukraine against Russia – failed.
· The war in Afghanistan – failed.
· The war against Iran – touted to end in 4 days, now approaching 6 months – failed.
· Sanctions on Chinese chips and technology – failed.
· Sanctions on Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) – failed.
· Containment of China at the First Island Chain – failed.
· Containment of China at the Second Island Chain – failing.
· Sanctions on Chinese drones – failed.
· Upgrades to US military jets – failed, existing only on PowerPoint slides.
· The plan to replenish diminished advanced missiles within 12 months – failed, existing only on paper.
· Ensuring adequate food supply for aircraft carrier personnel – failed (evidenced by crews eating moldy rations).
· Carrier strike groups getting within 1,000 miles of China’s coast – failed.
· Domestic production of rare earth elements – failed.
· Containment of China’s AI development – failed.
· Tariffs on Chinese goods – failed.

Meanwhile, what does the US consider its greatest successes?

a) A ballooning fiscal deficit.
b) A ballooning trade deficit.
c) Recording the longest days aircraft carrier crews have ever been stranded at sea.
d) White House insiders profiting handsomely from Wall Street through advanced information – huge success.
e) ICE’s use of deadly force against American citizens.
f) Playing the race card against non-whites in the name of homeland security – huge success.

讓我們從最近的一項發展說起：金融制裁反而意外催生了一套新體系，有效地繞過了美國與歐洲的制裁。

以下盤點美國過去十年來的失敗：

· 烏克蘭戰爭（對抗俄羅斯）——失敗。
· 阿富汗戰爭——失敗。
· 對伊朗的戰爭——號稱四天內結束，如今已將近六個月——失敗。
· 對中國晶片與科技的制裁——失敗。
· 對中國電動車的制裁——失敗。
· 第一島鏈對中國的圍堵——失敗。
· 第二島鏈對中國的圍堵——正在失敗。
· 對中國無人機的制裁——失敗。
· 美軍戰機升級——失敗，只存在於PowerPoint簡報上。
· 在12個月內補充短缺的先進飛彈計劃——失敗，只存在於紙上。
· 確保航空母艦人員充足食物供應——失敗（證據顯示官兵吃發霉口糧）。
· 航母打擊群接近中國海岸1,000英里以內——失敗。
· 稀土元素的國內生產——失敗。
· 對中國人工智慧發展的圍堵——失敗。
· 對中國商品的關稅——失敗。

與此同時，美國認為自己最大的成就是什麼？

a) 急劇膨脹的財政赤字。
b) 急劇膨脹的貿易逆差。
c) 創下航空母艦官兵滯留海上天數最長的紀錄。
d) 白宮內部人士憑藉內線消息從華爾街大賺一筆——巨大成功。
e) 美國移民及海關執法局（ICE）對美國公民使用致命武力。
f) 打著國土安全的旗號，對非白人操弄種族牌——巨大成功。
