NO INVASION, NO BOMBING, NO SANCTIONS ON ANYONE, HASN'T OVERTHROWN ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT OR USED ITS MILITARY ON ANYTHING SINCE 1979
Adopted from steadyaku47. com
I am a patriotic Egyptian and Middle Easterner. Yet I freely admit that compared to the Chinese, we are simply monkeys. A race of dumb animals. It doesn't matter who we are. Egyptians, Syrians, Pakistanis, Indians, Africans, even Americans. Next to the Chinese, we are pathetic. We can't do what they do. We would have a mountain, an Everest of changes to make, and we would whine and bicker and fail at every one of them. China's story since the 1980s has been one of an almost divine metamorphosis. Next to China the entire Western world from Alaska to New Zealand has stagnated. Next to China the entire developing world from Brazil to Madagascar has progressed only at a crawl. China, my friends, is the mother of all gargantuan bullet trains. Every day it manages to create something new and astonishing. And unlike the United States, unlike the British Empire, unlike the French, Dutch, Germans, Spanish, Portuguese or any other Western nation that had its turn at being a superpower in the past four centuries, China doesn't need to run anybody over or take something from somebody else, to rise majestically.
China is also standing up to the Western world all by herself. The West hates and fears that China is shooting up to the top. They can't believe their four-hundred-year-old global supremacy is being challenged. They hoped that the more China developed, the more it would submit to their influence, interests, and leadership. That didn't happen. So now they will do anything possible, short of a nuclear war, to make China end. Their goal is to destroy this country. That's why, although the United States has killed several million people and turned several regions of the earth into hellscapes since I was born in 1988, your TV, newspapers, Google newsfeed, and social media are all cursing, condemning and pandering panic and hatred of China 24 / 7. China is the worst fear of our planet's Western masters. They want you to despise and dread a country that's done nothing to you, that hasn't invaded anyone, bombed or sanctioned anyone, that hasn't overthrown any foreign government, or used its military on anything since 1979. You'll hate China and pray for its collapse, so that the West can continue to do what it's done since the age of Hernán Cortés and Francisco Pizarro — rape and pillage the earth from Latin America to Southeast Asia, and disguise its blood-spattered imperialism in the soft power and propaganda of “Western civilization" and world leadership.
China is the only major country in the nonwhite developing world, to stand up to the West. To look it in the eye when challenged or threatened, and say, No, I'm not afraid of you. Do your worst. I'm just as big as you are. All other countries in the Global South are simply Western puppets who submitted long ago. Even the most powerful ones. Saudi Arabia, Brazil, India — their leaders are busy listening to the United States, pen and paper in hand, writing down all its demands and going, Yes sir, Mr. Yankee sir. Let me get on that right away for you.
The 1500s—1000s BC were Egypt's time. Antiquity belonged to the Greeks and Romans. The 1700s belonged to France, and the 1800s to Britain. From 1945 to the present, the world has been under American overlordship. And they call it the Pax Americana but believe me, there isn't much Pax in it. There's plenty of Pax if you're in Europe or Australia. But the Middle East? Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Iran and Yemen in the past 20 years. Latin America? They've destroyed that part of the world beyond any hope of recovery. Africa? It's only been spared because of disinterest. The US sees Africa as nothing. The whole West does.
But in the twenty-first century, we are witnessing the rise of China. We are decades away from China becoming the greatest power on earth. This will be China's time, and there's nothing anyone can do about it. Attack China all you want, curse her and monger rumours and hysteria — but the truth is that none of your accusations are backed up by evidence, because you are a stooge of the Western press which is under the thumb of Western governments that want to stay on top of the world for all eternity. And the truth is that China is not affected by the noise and maneuvers of her enemies. What's going on now, this stupid new Cold War, is nothing. For her first thirty years, from 1949 to 1979, China was basically blockaded and isolated economically and politically by the West. It didn't even have a seat in the UN General Assembly. And it was dirt-poor in those days, barely a speck of the global economy, a tiny fraction of Japan's or Germany's GDP — not even able to prevent famine. And it still didn't submit to pressure or take any orders. Why on earth would it do that now?
China will be the next global power. There's nothing that can be done about that. The first stage is that its economy only needs to grow at 4.7 percent per year to become the world's largest by 2035. That means the usual, historical bare-minimum of 6 percent is already overkill. The US can build as many bases as it wants, slap as many sanctions as it wants, recognize whatever bogus genocides it wants. That's what it's been doing all along. Has any of it made a difference? China can adapt to any situation. It took China a mere ten years to go from being barred by the US Congress from participating in the “International" Space Station, to building its own Space Station from the zero. See, the US has an $800-billion war budget, 800 military bases, 13,000 aircraft, 500 warships, 6,000 nukes — but it doesn't have what China has: invincible national resolve. It takes the US about 5 years to renovate a bridge, and it takes China 43 hours. There's simply no competing with that. China doesn't need to be a military superpower or empire. That was never part of the plan. US troops, God bless their souls, will continue sitting in their bases, scratching their balls, costing their government $800 billion a year to do nothing. Meanwhile, China will continue to actually develop. That's the part of the equation that America totally missed, because it has barely developed since Reagan's day. China is a better place to live today than at any time in its previous 5,000 years; Americans saw their highest standard of living in the 1960s and those days will never come back.
So yes, China will be the next global power, and the Chinese are vastly superior to us in every way. This is a fact that everyone can attack but that nobody can change, like the theory of evolution. The difference between me and other people is that I ask, Why is this a problem? Why is this something to be afraid of? Why doesn't it mean — that the world will finally get better?
Look at you silly buggers, talking about China like it's going to be the next Nazi Germany. Even many Middle Easterners I know fit in this foolish category. Did you notice when the US invaded or overthrew the governments of 20 countries in the past 32 years (my lifetime)? Did you even know? You think just because you're ready to forget all that because of Beyoncé and Game of Thrones and Snapchat and other US cultural exports, it didn't happen and isn't still happening? But but, I’m scared! China's big and bad! Because the US is feeding me terror-bytes about Hong Kong, Taiwan, Tibet, Tiananmen Square, Great Leap Forward! I don't see any dead bodies, I can't show you one invasion or one example of Chinese regime change, I can't even find Hong Kong on a map or tell you one factual detail about Tiananmen Square, but the US State Department and all its media are telling me CHINA BAD! Wa, wa!
Even my father, brother, brother's in-laws have no real knowledge of any kind about the Western terror-bytes that have given them such an apprehensive feeling about China. And they're Egyptian and Syrian, so imagine how blank the typical Westerner is. Blankness doesn't stop prejudice and gullibility. That’s what most China-haters are. As gullible as children getting told about the boogeyman to procure their obedience.
Aren't you at least curious to see what a world with a nonwhite, non-Western leader might look like, after 400 years? Because God knows that leader won't be us. It won't be Brazil or Africa, or the Middle East or India or Indonesia or Nigeria or Pakistan. We're a mess. China was a mess too. But we remain a mess many decades after we achieved independence, and the Chinese went their own way, disentangled their mess and created their destiny. We’re not made of what the Chinese are made of. We might be one day, if we stop taking orders and cozying up to Western puppet-masters. I'm not holding my breath for that to happen.
Where's your concept of innocent until proven guilty? You turn a blind eye to the country that gave you dozens of destroyed nations and millions of corpses to see as proof of its brutality, because it also gave you some amazing sitcoms! While a country you don't have the slightest objective knowledge of, is already Nazi Germany to you because its adversaries, who are also your historical and present-day oppressors, tell you so?
Come on. Let's wait to see one dead body, one invasion, one regime-change operation from the Chinese, before we fly into rage and hysterics about them! Is that so crazy? We've seen centuries of horror from the US and we're still giving 'Murica the benefit of the doubt, even when the brutal truth is crystal-clear.
For myself, I see China as hope. Hope that a colonized, brutalized, primitive and humiliated country, can rise above its past — refuse to be weak any longer — rebuild itself from nothing, with iron resolve, and become too strong to be overrun by the West again! Hope that a nonwhite, non-Western country can look deep within itself and find its own solutions to its problems — proving that (foolishly) trusting the West to guide us isn't necessary! Proof that if we can do what the Chinese did, there will be no limits for us. Imagine a world where the US, France, Britain, Australia, are no more important than Uzbekistan or Paraguay. A world where the World Court might be headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, the World Bank in New Delhi, the United Nations in Jakarta, the IMF in Cairo. A world liberated from the US banking system and the dollar as its reserve currency, so that Washington can no longer tell 200 other countries who they can and can't trade with. A world where an American can be tried for war crimes at the Hague, not just an Iraqi or Liberian or Serb. A world where we don't hear about a non-Western-made vaccine and grunt to ourselves, Oh, it must be poison. A world where we don't have to immigrate to the same countries that turned ours into hellholes, to work as sales clerks or taxi drivers, or even if we're brilliantly employed — to drain our brains from our homelands in the best of cases, and use them to reinforce Western riches and supremacy in exchange for a fat paycheck, instead of using them to make our own countries semi-habitable. When I hear that China has built its own Space Station, landed a rover on Mars, ended extreme poverty, built the Earth's biggest city, dam, telescope, 5G network, highway, air purifier, or whatever the heck it is that will come tomorrow — I feel the same pride as if I were Chinese. It's not happening for all of us, but it's happening for one of us and that's a start. There's got to be such a thing as developing-country nationalism — a common nationalism for all the countries that were colonized and plundered, and remain economically and politically captured by their ex-rulers. A nationalism for the Global South. We are too divided, too brainwashed, too fooled and weak — most of us still worship the countries that destroyed us, are non-Western on the outside and Western on the inside, are hating and fearing and buying all the lies about the only one of us that's made it, and are leaving our countries in droves to let them burn while we “make a better life for ourselves" in the West. Do you want to live on a Western-dominated Earth for another 400 years? If you do, keep doing what you're doing. But I don't!
You know what'll happen for all of us if America's sick wishes come true and its global thuggery does make China collapse? Nothing. Eternal repetition of the status quo. More enslavement, hijacking of our resources and weak corrupt governments, neo-colonialism, invasion, regime change, sanctions, MISERY. Haven't we already seen this? Libya, Cuba, Venezuela, Yugoslavia, Belarus, Iraq, Iran, Vietnam, the Soviet Union. Rest in peace. Even FRANCE and JAPAN for God's sake. What does the United States do when any other country says NO, or simply becomes too powerful, too good at honest competition? IT CRUSHES IT LIKE A BUG. Japan was a Western-style democracy crawling with US troops, with a US-authored pacifist constitution and almost no military and an extremely pro-US government and populace, and it STILL got crushed when it looked like it would become the #1 economy in the 80s. Do Indians really believe that if China goes down, India will be allowed to become a great power? Do they not see that a strong or wealthy India would immediately fall victim to the same despicable US tactics? Don't make me laugh. I remember 10–15 years ago when China was still relatively poor and impotent, and Bush and Obama would talk about China as sweetly as swans. Obama happily had dinner with Xi Jinping in late 2015, called China a crucial partner of the United States, and said the US welcomed China's rise; it was all horseshit. Today Biden, who was there with Obama in late 2015 as Vice-President, angrily rebukes a reporter who merely said that Biden and Xi were old friends. America has taken off its mask. China made it, it wasn't supposed to make it, so now it must die. What a difference 5 years can make. China went from “crucial partner" to “number one threat.”
We should be helping and supporting China to keep climbing to the top, and giving her some serious solidarity as she withstands the new Cold War of Western imperialism. It’s been a long 400 years. China is the first non-Western country to even come close to reaching a status of ultimate global importance. She is akin to the the first member of an impoverished family to go to university. That is our family of nations. And when China gets to the top, believe me, it won't be a repeat of the French, British, or American Empire. Not a single developing country on earth will be worse-off because of China becoming #1. There will be something good in this for all of us, so let's wake up and let's go!
Is China an aggressor and oppressor?

The West especially the US have been bashing China and accusing China of human right violation in Xinjiang for a long time. Why the US ignores its own human rights issues and accuses others instead. Is there a genocide in Xinjiang?
I have re-produced this article for all to read. It is worth your time to read it.

Associate Fellow, Department of Philosophy, Nanjing University (NJU)
Chinese academic Li Yuehua takes a look at reports on China’s human rights record, and analyses whether it really deserves its negative reputation. Hasn’t China tried to improve the lives of its people, and isn’t the right to survival and development a major part of human rights? He believes that painting China as an aggressor and oppressor only fulfils the interests of a few politicians to the detriment of people-to-people relations between China and the West.
These days, Western media reports mostly bash China’s human rights record and give it a bad reputation. The way they say it in Europe and the US, it seems that doing business with China means sacrificing human rights.
But is that the truth? Interestingly, going back in history, today’s human rights critics — the UK and the European powers — once invaded China and violated its interests. And China, which developed in this historical context, is the one criticised for its human rights.
US and European politicians are against China out of political interests, but their actions exacerbate the anti-China climate in their own countries.
A chain reaction of anti-China sentiments
The US feels that China wants to overtake it, and so it wants to contain China. This was obvious when Donald Trump was in office. When Joe Biden took over, he continued the containment policy, perhaps due to the domestic political climate, or perhaps because he holds the same views himself. From Hong Kong to Taiwan to Xinjiang issues, as long as it has a chance of interfering with China’s development, the US actively “speaks up”.
What the Chinese see is rural poverty alleviation and wealth creation... As for the so-called “genocide” in Xinjiang, it is a fact that the population of Xinjiang is growing and the people’s quality of life is improving.
Europe is getting increasingly fragmented, and with far-sighted German chancellor Angela Merkel soon to step down, European politicians are also joining the US in attacking China, whether it is because they are influenced by the US or furthering their own political interests. Their media reports paint China as trampling on human rights, and such a portrayal reinforces negative views of China among the people of Europe and the US. In turn, these sentiments strengthen the anti-China impetus of European and American politicians, leading to stronger anti-China voices in their societies.
The Chinese people see it differently
The problem is, their offensive is the opposite of how the people in China feel. What the Chinese see is rural poverty alleviation and wealth creation. United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres congratulated China for its great achievements in poverty alleviation. As for the so-called “genocide” in Xinjiang, it is a fact that the population of Xinjiang is growing and the people’s quality of life is improving.
In the classes that I teach, each year there are students from Xinjiang. Some come from poor families and write that they are thankful for national policies that allow them to study in eastern coastal areas. Support provided by these policies has been an important catalyst for these students on their road towards attending top Chinese universities.
From daily life to healthcare and education, the Chinese government is committed to providing better public services to the people. China’s healthcare and education costs are not high in comparison to the rest of the world
Those who have lived internationally would have a sense of this. The waiting time in China for a particular treatment is much shorter than in other countries, and while Chinese doctors may not have as much medical knowledge as European or American doctors, Chinese doctors are as experienced and effective as overseas doctors. During the pandemic last year, patients’ medical fees were all taken care of by the government; so far, few countries have done that.
There is residential segregation in Europe and the US. Taxes are low in slums, and so they receive poor public services, resulting in a vicious cycle. JD Vance, the writer of US bestseller Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis, made it out of the slums; when he went back to the slums where he grew up, he found to his despair that it was now more difficult for the children there to get an opportunity to make it out, as he saw the growing rich-poor gap in US society. And in Paris, the arrondissement or district that one lives in signals one’s situation and quality of life.
The Chinese government strives to achieve social fairness. The right to survival and development should have some bearing on human rights.
Social mobility intact
While there are indeed school district houses in China, it is not the case that poor children are unable to realise their dreams because of social obstacles. In fact, the opposite is true — to this day, there are many rural students in China who have made successful lives of themselves outside their village through doing well in the gaokao (the National College Entrance Examination). The Chinese government also attaches great importance to giving rural students equal opportunities for education.
I work at a college and am familiar with undergraduate admissions. Taking into account the fairness of gaokao, the Chinese Ministry of Education removed the independent admissions option in 2020, that is, where schools can use their own criteria in determining whether a student can enter the school. However, it retained this option for outstanding rural students.
While lucky ones such as the authors of Educated: A Memoir and Hillbilly Elegy exist in the US, such lucky people are few and far between in American slums. The Chinese government strives to achieve social fairness. The right to survival and development should have some bearing on human rights.
... the Western media must reflect on the objectivity and value orientation of their reports.
Tolerance a firm part of Chinese culture
As the birthplace of philosophical classics like the Analects (《论语》) and the Tao Te Ching (《道德经》) — Buddhism was even sinicised and incorporated as part of Chinese philosophy after it was brought to China — the core of Chinese culture is not about excluding others, but is all-encompassing and all-embracing. Chinese culture is extremely tolerant, as reflected in the belief that “tolerance breeds greatness” (有容乃大). Now, a country prescribed to such a cultural system is being accused of trampling on human rights and carrying out “genocide”. Should one laugh or cry?
Western media’s current biased reporting on China could be a case of reflecting the authorities' understanding or coming to one’s own conclusions after emotions are stoked. It could even be the result of egging on by commercial interests. However, can such reports stand the test of time? From a secular point of view, media and reporters who write truthful, objective reports will stand out from those who use cookie-cutter style media releases. Thus, whether looking at it objectively or from the perspective of news values, the Western media must reflect on the objectivity and value orientation of their reports.

China has always taken pride in its 5,000 years of civilisation. This culture is that of the Silk Road and not that of guns and swords. Modern Chinese history is marked by bullying and humiliation from Western powers. The Chinese have therefore developed a deep-seated victim complex.
Instead of saying that globalisation has strengthened the role of the state, it is more accurate to say that globalisation flows have highlighted the need for government services.
Notably, in the Chinese context and culture, “wealth and power” refers to building an affluent society for its people and gaining the power to protect itself from other bullies. But this does not mean that it will bully and invade other countries once it gains wealth and power. Western societies must keep this in mind when understanding China’s rise. Otherwise, cognitive dissonance will result in misunderstandings.
On the one hand, the Chinese are enjoying an increasing standard of living. On the other hand, China is the poster child of a poor human rights record in the eyes of Western public opinion. How can China accept this? And what can Western society gain? Apart from fulfilling the political interests of some politicians who are using the anti-China narrative as a shortcut to distract the people from the domestic situation, there is nothing to gain but everything to lose in the long term.
Instead of saying that globalisation has strengthened the role of the state, it is more accurate to say that globalisation flows have highlighted the need for government services. While reflecting on and strengthening government services, it is even more important for the government to return to logic and reason and not push society into the rhetoric of venting their emotions. The latter brings no advantage to the country and society at all.

As you know, the West especially US has been bashing China for no good reason and I have posted a few articles to defend China.
Professor Dennis Etler is an American political analyst who holds a doctorate in anthropology from the University of California, Berkeley.
Anthropology is the study of what makes us human. Anthropologists take a broad approach to understanding the many different aspects of the human experience, which we call holism. They consider the past, through archaeology, to see how human groups lived hundreds or thousands of years ago and what was important to them.
Why is it that the West is so preoccupied with demonizing China? The usual answer is that China's economic growth is challenging Western global hegemony which has held sway for at least 250 years if not longer. The Chinese military has also reached parity with that of the West, so it is no longer subject to Western intimidation and bullying. All that is true, and sufficient reason for the West to want to savage China and portray it as the root of all evil.
But there is one other consideration that must be taken into account. It's not only China's economic prowess and military might that frightens the West, it is also China's success as a nation versus the West's failure.
Moreover, China has forged a society in which there is harmony between its different ethnicities in contrast to the systemic racism that characterizes Western society.
Western ruling elites and their media mouthpieces do not want to acknowledge the fact that China has eliminated extreme poverty while more and more of their own people descend into poverty. They do not want to admit that China has constructed a 21st century infrastructure while they lag far behind. They do not want to confront the fact that the Chinese people overwhelmingly support their government while people in the West have lost confidence in their own, they do not want to accept that China beat COVID-19 while they haven't, and finally they are loathed to accept the fact that a non-white nation has outperformed them and will continue to do so into the foreseeable future.
In order to deflect attention away from these truths the West has concocted a series of lies and slanders that allow them to deny Chinese reality. Instead of poverty alleviation the West imagines "genocide." Instead of the advances in HSR, EVs, alt-energy and e-commerce they focus on "IP theft," instead of a socioeconomic system that serves the people, they accuse China of forced labour and forced sterilizations. Instead of seeing China as defending its national sovereignty in the South China Sea, Hong Kong and Taiwan, it's called an aggressor.
All the China-bashing serves multiple purposes but one of the main reasons is to make sure that people in the West do not get to hear about or see what the real China is all about because if they did they may get ideas that the Western elites don't want them to have, such as socialism works for the betterment of the 99% while capitalism works primarily to enrich the 1%.
Why China is excluded in G7 summit?
Author: Koon Yew Yin
Publish date:
China has warned the G7 leaders that the days when a "small" group of countries decided the fate of the world were long gone.
The G7 leaders must read this brief lesson in history. They should be ashamed of themselves.
And now the million-dollar question...????
9. Why are the G7 members see China as a threat even though China is the only major nation on earth that has never invaded or occupied another country?
Answer : Ego or fear of retribution?
The comments, by a spokesman for the Chinese embassy in London, come as the leaders, who are meeting in England, seek a unified position over China.
They adopted a spending plan in response to a massive Chinese scheme. US President Joe Biden is determined that Western powers need to act now to counter a resurgent China. Joe Biden is promising more financial support for developing countries hit by the climate crisis, and funds for infrastructure projects in the developing world, an alternative to a Chinese programme.
President Biden said he wanted the US-backed Build Back Better World (B3W) plan to be a higher-quality alternative to Beijing's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The scheme has helped finance trains, roads, and ports in many countries, but has been criticised for saddling some with debt.
Joe Biden is like telling a joke because US does not even have 1 high speed rail.
China High-Speed Rail
High-speed rail (HSR) in China is the world's longest high speed railway network and most extensively used -- with a total length of 37,900 km by the end of 2020. The HSR network encompasses newly built rail lines with a design speed of 200–350 km/h (120–220 mph). China's HSR accounts for two-thirds of the world's total high-speed railway networks. Almost all HSR trains, track and service are owned and operated by the China Railway Corporation under the brand China Railway High-speed (CRH).
High-speed rail developed rapidly in China over the past 15 years. CRH was introduced in April 2007 and the Beijing-Tianjin intercity rail, which opened in August 2008, was the first passenger dedicated HSR line. Currently, HSR extends to all provincial-level administrative divisions except Macau and Tibet. The HSR network reached just under 38,000 km (24,000 mi) in total length by the end of 2020. The HSR building boom continues with the HSR network set to reach 70,000 km (43,000 mi) in 2035.
The advent of high-speed rail in China has greatly reduced travel time and has transformed Chinese society and economy. A World Bank study found "a broad range of travellers of different income levels choose HSR for its comfort, convenience, safety and punctuality."
Notable HSR lines in China include the Beijing–Guangzhou high-speed railway which at 2,298 km (1,428 mi) is the world's longest HSR line in operation, and the Beijing–Shanghai high-speed railway with the world's fastest operating conventional train services. The Shanghai Maglev is the world's first high-speed commercial magnetic levitation ("maglev") line, whose trains run on non-conventional track and reach a top speed of 430 km/h (267 mph). In 2020, China started testing a maglev prototype train that runs at 600 km/h and aims to put a 500-km-long high-speed maglev line into commercial use by 2025.
US should follow China
Implementing high-speed rail (HSR) will provide the Americans with more transportation choices. It will also make sure that the people remain an economic engine, and meets the environmental and energy challenges of this century.
Investing in high-speed rail:
A NOTE FROM Nury Vittachi
tYSlesStintpherdddearsy aondedhgttso 11rse:4s6 doAoMd ·
WHEN EUROPEAN LEADERS refused to back the US’s anti-China campaign, internet connections were shut down to ensure no outside heard the discussion, a report from the site said.
It happened during the Saturday evening discussion at the G-7 meeting in Cornwall, UK.
TOUGH LINE
The problem: All parties agreed that China (like France, Indonesia and others) was taking a tough line on violent Islamist radicalism.
But America is using “Uyghur rights groups” financed by the CIA’s regime change unit to exaggerate the process into a horrific “worse than the Holocaust” narrative in a bid to get the world on its side in an economic war against the Chinese, who are working to rise above their “developing nation” status.
As part of the strategy, US leader Joseph Biden wanted the G7’s joint communique to mention a recent chapter of the US-penned narrative, which is to paint entrepreneurs who employ Uyghur staff as monsters who run slave camps. The UK’s Boris Johnson and Canada’s Justin Trudeau said they would back it, but European countries declined, knowledgeable sources said.
COINCIDENTAL TIMING
It is worth noting that Amnesty International and the New York Times both “coincidentally” released “unverified” reports of atrocities in Xinjiang, presented as fact, to bolster Biden’s claim.
The NYT report repeated Adrian Zenz’s IUD statistics, omitting to note that they had long been debunked, and contained an absurd reference to “the destruction of Hong Kong”, despite the fact that Hong Kong is now statistically the world’s healthiest and one of the world’s wealthiest cities.
SECRET CENSORS
After the meeting, a Biden spokesman tried to make the fight sound trivial. “There is a little differentiation, I think I would say, within—within, I think, the spectrum of how hard they would push on some of these issues,” reporters were told.
But insiders told reporters that the quarrel over the US narrative got so heated that censors snapped into action.
“The disagreements, aired during a session that at one point became so sensitive that all internet was shut off to the room, pitted European nations against the United States, Britain and Canada,” according to a CNN report.
It was unthinkable that the people of the world should hear the discussion and be enlightened.
VAGUE REFERENCES
And what happened in the end? The anti-China hawks lost, the Europeans won. The communique, when it was published, made only vague references to Hong Kong and Xinjiang, and no mention of slave labor.
Even with Amnesty International and the NYT backing them up, the US State Department lost this round.
NOT FOOLED
In related news, a classic idiom has been updated: “You can’t fool all the people all the time, even if you are richest country in the world spending hundreds of millions of dollars to try to make people hate a developing country.”
That’s good news for people everywhere, including Americans, many of whom are no fans of covert US activities overseas.
Peace.

RETALIATION FROM CHINA ?
Retaliatory actions by Chinese, cut subsidies, curb steel productions, pass 9% increase cost of production to overseas consumers, carbon neutral policy, start china own entities lists, sanctions against western politicians titles for tat for fake news, hostility and speed up core technology innovation and development.
Recently, global steel prices have soared three-fold, and Taiwan’s steel stock prices have almost doubled at least simultaneously. This is a phenomenon that has never occurred in the past two decades. What is the reason behind it?
The apparent reason is that Australia has substantially increased the price of iron ore, but the main reason is that China has drastically cut production capacity and cancelled subsidies to curb production capacity and no longer encourage exports.
Since China is the world’s largest steel producer, its production capacity accounts for 55% of the world’s total. Therefore, when China cuts production and curbs exports, and India, the second largest steel producer, falls into the epidemic situation, it is conceivable that the demand for steel is in short supply. How serious the situation is, so prices soared.
Why should China reduce production capacity and curb exports when demand in the global steel market is tight? Why not take the opportunity to expand production and make a good profit?
The answer is that China used to cut steel production capacity and curb exports to create inflation and hit the economic recovery plans of the United States and the Western world.
In the past, China provided ample global market demand and low-priced steel products, which played a decisive role in helping the world suppress prices and avoid triggering global inflation. Even if the United States has repeatedly implemented the so-called quantitative easing (QE) policy and printed a large number of banknotes, it can still enjoy low-interest funds without causing the depreciation of the dollar and inflation. In fact, these are all factories in the world, China, sacrificing environmental protection, bearing cheap labor, and contributing to global economic development.
But this time China is obviously no longer willing to take advantage of it anymore, curb steel supply and allow global inflation to let European and American countries experience the soaring prices without China's sacrifices!
When the price of steel, a pillar product in economic development, and all raw materials have skyrocketed, look at Biden's trillion-dollar infrastructure. Will it continue? See if the Fed can maintain the original low interest rate policy ?
When inflation causes interest rates to rise, the European and American stock markets and bond markets will inevitably collapse, and the international economic order will be in chaos. At this time, the new eight-nation coalition forces that the United States attempts to unite again will collapse like scattered sand and will no longer be able to attack and contain China!
China has begun to set rules for the United States! The "List of Unreliable Entities" promulgated by the Ministry of Commerce today is the Chinese version of Section 301. Use the market to block the counter-technology blockade. This original list of deaths shocked the global technology market and capital! This is the first country in the world to set rules for the United States after World War II. If you just look at this list as China's counterattack against the current bullying of the United States, you would underestimate the lethality of this list. The significance of the list is not only to address the current U.S. government's head-on response to China's unreasonable and unreasonable actions by U.S. companies, but also to formulate rules for the great shift between China and the United States five or ten years later. Set rules for American chip and software companies: cut off supply and network to Chinese companies at will, and please get out of the Chinese market. Set rules for arms sales companies to Taiwan: threaten China's national security, or may pose a threat, please get out of the Chinese market. Not only American companies, but Japanese and European companies, also set the rules for you! Set rules for US government officials, politicians, congressmen, media professionals, and various think tanks: China's security, dignity, and inviolability! This is the 38 degrees north latitude of the Korean War, and this is the 16 degrees north latitude of the Vietnam War. If you cross the line, you will be beaten! This is the sword of Damocles in the East! The whole world understands the voice of China. American, European and Japanese companies understand the voice of China. The capital of Wall Street understands the voice of China. The dollar plummeted. U.S. stocks fell in a row. U.S. debt fell overcast. In a capitalist society, dialogue is done in a language that capital understands. In a socialist society, we use the unity of the whole society to show our strength. This sword will hang there forever for five, ten, thirty years! This sword is called China's right to speak !!! All friends who have a patriotic heart, or overseas Chinese and foreign friends, please move your finger to forward it to your circle of friends or WeChat group. The more you forward, the better, to show that you have a Chinese heart.
AN OPEN LETTER FROM REPRESENTATIVES OF CHINESE PROFESSIONALS IN THE U.K. TO THE LEADERS OF THE G7 COUNTRIES
Author: Koon Yew Yin

The West especially the US have been bullying China for a long time and I have been writing articles to defend China. This is the best piece I have ever read. Although it is quite long, I am sure it is worth your while to read it.
10 June 2021
Dear Sirs and Madam (G7 Leaders)
We are a collective of professionals of Chinese ethnic origin residing in the United Kingdom. We wish to express the community’s hope that leaders at the 2021 G7 will take all necessary step to defuse the current hostility towards China and the Chinese people. Many of us had lived experience in China, and extensive relationships with the country and people. We implore the leaders of the G7 to regard China as a friend and not as an enemy.
We are glad that the Covid-19 pandemic is the main agenda for the 2021 G7 conference. However, we are anxious that this forum should not be abused as a platform to propagate anti-China covid-19 related myths. As the 7 April, 2020 Nature publication rightly warned, “continuing to associate a virus and the disease it causes with a specific place is irresponsible and needs to stop. As infectious disease epidemiologist Adam Kucharski reminds us in his timely book The Rules of Contagion: history tells us that pandemics lead to communities being stigmatised, which is why we all need to exercise more care.
The international rule-based system has designated the WHO as the competent body to deal with such a pandemic. Hence, all political accusations about the virus that is not science-based are unhelpful and a distraction to making the world safe from the pandemic.
A member of this collective, Dr Michael Ng, a community leader and a university professor in the U.K., is involved in combating pandemic related hate crimes against the Chinese community. He wishes to remind the G7 that any attempt to politicise the Covid-19 issue against China would fan the flame of hate crimes against the community. That would undo all the excellent efforts of the local councils, civic groups, police force and community leaders who had helped defuse the spread of hate crimes.
Dr Ping Hua, a research scientist, is concerned that the rise of hate crimes and daily demonising of China has created such a hostile environment for Chinese scientists that could stymie the scientific and intellectual exchanges between the West and the world’s fastest-growing economy.
We note with concern the United States anxiety over the economic rise of China. China’s per capita is only one-fifth of the United States, with only one military base abroad compared to 800 of the United States. She is not a threat to the West. China’s rise is complementary to Western interests. A more prosperous China could only benefit the working people in the West through higher demands for western goods and services. Treating China’s rise as a threat to the United States or the West is based on fiction.
China is not a utopia, but it is undoubtedly not a dystopia as Western critics and media visualise. The Chinese people are aware of the ideological differences between the West and China. Yet over 90% supports the government in Beijing. This is the finding from a 13-year long survey carried out by the Ash Center of Harvard University. They found that the majority of the population surveyed feels that today is better than yesterday. They expect tomorrow to be better than today. The millions of Chinese who voted with their feet to return home after their travel and studies in the West corroborates with the Ash Center findings.
China’s governance is different from the West. That does not necessarily mean that the Communist Party of China can defy the wishes of its citizen. This is the conclusion of the Survey. According to Edward Cunningham, who co-authored the research from 2003-2016, “CCP isn’t immune to shift public opinion, especially in areas like corruption, environmental degradation, health, and overall standards of living.”
When considering whether China is a friend and partner, or enemy, G7 should consider the independent findings of the Ash Center.
We are concerned that current hostilities towards China in the West are manufactured and ratcheted up in the United States to serve the interest of the military-industrial complex and the electoral needs of both the Democrats and the Republicans.
The alleged genocide in Xinjiang and the threat of invasion of Taiwan are the two most important examples.
On Genocide in Xinjiang
We believe that the claim of genocide in Xinjiang is untenable as the Uighur population has increased from 5 million to 13 million since the 1950s. If China does enslave a million Uighurs, the CIA enhanced aerial surveillance technology could easily prove the allegation with video images of prisoners in the yards. They have not done so.
Critics of China have studiously ignored a World Bank statement of the 11 November 2019 that dealt with the allegation that skills and learning institutions associated with the Bank were de facto prisons. “In line with standard practice, immediately after receiving a series of serious allegations in August 2019 in connection with the Xinjiang Technical and Vocational Education and Training Project, the Bank launched a fact-finding review, and World Bank senior managers travelled to Xinjiang to gather information directly… The review did not substantiate the allegations.”
Mr Bitu Bhalla, a member of the Honourable Society of Gray’s Inn and International Arbitrator, and Mr Wah-Piow Tan, a Balliol-educated Human Rights solicitor, were unimpressed by the various legal opinions supporting the claim of genocide against China. “China and the World Bank’s $100 million education and training program in Xinjiang,” they observed, “is cast-iron evidence that China has no specific intention to kill a part or whole of the Uighur population. Without specific intention, there cannot be any genocide.” What genocide regime would spend $100 million to educate and train the people you plan to kill?” They are also disappointed that the issues of proportionality were not adequately addressed, or addressed at all by those Barristers criticising China’s response to the threats of terrorism.
“Unlike Britain or the United States, China confronts an Al-Qaeda and ISIS-inspired insurgency seeking to establish an Islamic Caliphate in Xinjiang and Central Asia. Even the Indian government, an ally of the West, has argued for the suspension of human rights when fighting terrorism,” said Tan.
On China threat to Taiwan
According to the Economist, Taiwan has become the most dangerous place globally because of the risk of military conflict between the United States and China. There is enough nuclear arsenal between them to destroy the planet.
What the United States perceives as China’s threat to Taiwan is viewed differently by the Chinese people. At an International Affairs Fellowship forum, a U.S. think tank, a panellist reported that 100% of overseas Chinese students in the United States considered Taiwan a province of China. “The possible validity of Chinese claims” over Taiwan, remarked historian Max Hastings in a recent opinion piece in Bloomberg, was not even considered by the China experts advising the American administration. Max Hastings had raised a valid question. The overwhelming majority of countries worldwide recognise the People’s Republic of China as the legitimate government of China and pursue the one-China policy. This is de facto recognition of China’s sovereignty over Taiwan. To China, it is an unfinished reunification process.
The United States has its own hidden agenda to embolden the Taiwanese separatists, in the same vein as encouraging Uighur or Hong Kong separatists. We hope the G7 should advise the United States to refrain from redefining its one-China policy, thereby destroying any likelihood of an amicable arrangement for reunification.
The impending war
We are particularly concerned that Britain’s aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth II, the third-largest globally, is speeding towards Taiwan to flex its muscles at China. Instead of supporting the hawkish approach of the United States towards China, the G7 should review the futilities of wars launched since the 2001 9/11 attack. The wars in Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq and Libya had caused 800,000 deaths, displaced 21 million people, wasted $ 6.4 trillion. These wars created failed states, not democracies.
The current propaganda war complementing the military adventures against China are efforts to retain the United States hegemony. The flawed policy has more dire consequences than those of the last two decades. The G7 should review the previous 20 years of war launched by the U.S before contemplating to support Biden’s military-led Indo Pacific Tilt, which is the code word for China-bashing in the South China Seas area.
The stakes are so high that the advice of Bruce Kent, the veteran peace campaigner, ought to be taken seriously: “we can learn to live harmoniously as neighbours… we have to learn to live as partners.”
