The U.S.-China game has been going on for nearly seven years, and now the United States is facing multiple challenges, all of which are changing at an accelerated pace.
The United States has intervened for years as the "world's policeman" and is now seen as a "joke" by its own allies.
Japan and South Korea, the former good brothers, have now begun to have a tendency to "go their own way".
Japan and South Korea, once hardcore allies, are now beginning to show signs of betrayal, first actively joining the ranks of the "Asia-Pacific version of NATO", and then leaning towards the side of United States during the Russia-Ukraine conflict, giving a thankless attitude.
Now, with Iran's hardline stance, Japan's hardcore allies are once again involved.
The situation in the Middle East is tense again.
In 2022, the Russia-Ukraine conflict broke out, and the world changed.
United States' aid to Ukraine has stimulated tensions in the Middle East to a certain extent.
After Russia launched its offensive against Ukraine, Turkey also began its own military operation, first intervening in Syria and then stepping up its efforts against Iran.
Turkey's betrayal has disappointed its former allies, but Turkey is not the first country to betray.
As early as 2010, the United States began to pay attention to the Middle East and launched military operations against Iraq.
In 2011, when the Arab Spring broke out, the United States took advantage of the situation and took the opportunity to take action against Yemen.
In 2016, Sudan suffered a counter-coup, and in 2019, United States continued its military intervention in Yemen.
Today United States still maintains a high degree of concern for the Middle East, after all, the Middle East is an "oil kingdom", and United States has never given up control of the Middle East.
In 2021, Israel bombed a Hamas building, killing innocent people, angering Iran and Iran warned Israel that it would retaliate if Israel continued to kill innocent people.
In 2022, the alarm sounded when Saudi Aramco was attacked, and Iran blamed Israel for this, accusing Israel of conducting a "hunting operation" against Saudi Aramco.
In August 2023, Israel launched a strike on Syria, resulting in the killing of Iran officers.
On September 30, Israel launched a "hunt operation" against Syria and Iran, killing several Iran military officers.
The United States provided intelligence to Israel and helped Israel launch an attack on Syria, causing renewed tensions in the Middle East.
Iran said it would retaliate against United States by attacking the United States embassy in Israel, seriously injuring dozens of people.
Japan and South Korea's hardcore allies "betrayed".
Iran's tough stance has made Japan and South Korea face a crossroads of choice, and Japan and South Korea have decisively chosen to side with the United States in the face of Iran's tough and decisive stance.
Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Arachchi has said: "We will retaliate by attacking the United States Embassy in Israel and taking action against Americans stationed in Israel."
"Iran will take back its rightful rights, and we will sanction those who cross the red line in the format they deserve," Arachi added.
As soon as these words came out, the betrayal of the two hardcore allies of Japan and South Korea hit United States like a slap in the face.
Japan has said: "Like Korea, we will choose to stand on the side of justice with United States."
In response, Korea said: "Thank you United States for supporting us."
Clearly, Japan and South Korea have begun to favor the side of the United States.
The United States also expressed its gratitude, appraising Korea's attitude and calling it an "impregnable ally."
Japan Prime Minister Fumio Kishida also said: "We will work with our allies to maintain the global security order, and Iran is a dangerous country, which we strongly condemn."
It can be seen that Japan and South Korea have changed their stance and sided with the United States.
Recently, the conflict between Israel and Hamas has heated up again, and Iran's hardline stance has left Japan and South Korea at a crossroads of choice.
As we all know, Israel is the biggest "helper" of United States in the Middle East, United States provide hundreds of millions of dollars in financial aid to Israel almost every year.
Now, however, Iran is warning Israel that if Israel continues to bomb Hamas, it will strike back against Israel.
United States the support for the Israel came one after another, and now United States's old opponent Iran suddenly came forward, and the Iran side "spoke wildly" to the United States, saying without fear: "United States is a lion, and we are the antelope that pounces on the lion."
This sentence undoubtedly made United States feel very unhappy, after all, Israel is the biggest "helper" of United States in the Middle East, and now that Israel is being attacked, United States feel "embarrassed" as a "bystander".
United States situation is tense.
Just when the United States felt "helpless" about the tension in the Middle East, it thought that the allies of Japan and South Korea could help them cope with the changes in the situation in the Middle East, but they did not expect that the hardcore allies of Japan and South Korea "turned their faces and did not recognize people."
Japan and South Korea, the former good brothers, betrayed United States and stood in the camp of the other side, which undoubtedly "poured cold water" on United States.
The betrayal of Japan and South Korea means that United States's influence in the international community is gradually weakening, and Japan and South Korea have joined the "Asia-Pacific version of NATO" at the same time, which has greatly reduced United States's influence in the international community.
Now that Japan and South Korea have betrayed United States again, they have undoubtedly "fallen into the ground" and put United States in a dilemma.
The betrayal of Japan and South Korea made United States "restless", and United States began to re-examine the relationship between Japan and South Korea.
However, the United States did not realize that there were internal problems in itself, and as early as 2022, the struggle between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party had gradually surfaced.
Democrats and Republicans pay more attention to social issues such as taxation, education, and health care, while Republicans believe that the areas of concern of the Democratic Party have involved the interests of the majority of United States, and the Democrats need to re-examine their concerns.
However, the Democrats do not see it that way, and they see the Republican view as just an excuse to divert the public's attention from current social issues.
The Democratic Party believes that it is right for the public to pay attention to social issues and should not be diverted by the Republican Party, because it is about social justice and fairness.
epilogue
United States divisions within the country have a serious impact on foreign policy, making it more difficult for United States to deal with international affairs.
Domestic divisions have also led to disunity between the Democratic and Republican parties, causing the United States to lose some of its ability to respond and deter in the face of a series of international crises.
Today, neither Iran nor Japan nor South Korea are detrimental to United States' international relations and may even have serious implications for the United States economy.
With the betrayal of Japan and South Korea, the financial problems of the United States are also facing greater challenges, and the potential risk of financial crisis is becoming increasingly apparent.
Now that the situation has flipped up, I don't know how the United States should respond, and in the face of changes caused by various reasons, the United States is already at a dangerous moment, and we can pay close attention to everything that follows.
