USA - the fading away Empire

How time has changed. The voice of the Americans is growing weaker, their circle of friends getting smaller and their power to pressure their allies and enemies slipping away. Since the time of Trump to the present, the only obsession of the Americans is China, China and China. Wherever and whenever the Americans made their presence, in regional forum, international gatherings, in bilateral meetings, the agenda is the same, smearing China, attacking China, coercing everyone to go against China. This antics of the bickering and warmongering Americans has become a drag and very painful in the ears of allies or countries that did not want to be part of this hostile and unproductive discussion with the Americans

Do the Americans have nothing else better to do, no better ideas than to badmouth China, stirring shits and fabricating lies and fake news everyday against China and accusing China of hostility and aggression? Do the Americans really believe the leaders and people of the world are blind and stupid and could not see who is the real troublemaker, the aggressor, the abuser, the provocateur for war and instability, the murderers of Arabs and Muslims and people from the developing world?

The world know who is the real villian, the warmonger and murderers of the innocents. The hands of the Americans, AngloSaxons and European powers are dripping with blood.

China is assertive, China is aggressive, for doing what? The Americans are friendly, nice, cooperative? Not aggressive, not coercive, not oppressive and manipulative in what they are doing everyday? This madness to want to run down China is getting so out of hand that no one would want to be talking to the Americans anymore, as their agenda would only consist of how to make an enemy of China and also Russia.

Countries of the world have many priorities and important matters in looking after their people and economic interests, to provide for their people to live well. No one has the energy or in the mood to want to go to war with China, to make an enemy of China, their number one trading partner and carries a bag of goodies to share with the rest of the world. Why would any country want to start a war, and in this case against China and cut off the largesse that China could provide, the economic and technological aid that they needed most, anything but war and wasting limited funds to spend on buying weapons to start a war.

The Americans still did not get it and could not see how irritating and unproductive they are in their agenda for war against China and Russia. They could not hear or see the messages from every country, including their allies and cronies, that no one is interested in making an enemy of China, let alone going to war with China that is contributing the growth of their economies. 

Why would any country want to go to war, go to fight a war for the Americans, an American war with China? The Americans may have nothing better to do or thinking that war is a great party to keep themselves as the top dog of the world, but that has nothing to do with countries of the world, and if any, would keep them subservient to an aggressive and bullying American Empire.

Many countries are in fact privately celebrating and wishing that China could stop this evil American Empire, to prevent the Americans from bullying, harassing and oppressing them, threatening regime change and meddling with their domestic politics. 

The Americans are so dull not to see how evil and wicked and unwelcome they are to the countries of the world. Every country wants to stay neutral in America's fight with China. It is none of their business. Every country secretly hope that it is time the Americans be held and kept away from interfering in their domestic affairs, be kept busy by another big power so that the Americans would have no time to mess around with countries all over the world.

Quietly and purposefully, every country is staying away from the Americans, not want to be seen with the Americans, except for a few lackeys and cronies, the number diminishing by the day. Every country now would be able to exercise their votes in the UN and regional or international organisations freely and in the interest of their respective countries. It is a new found independence and freedom from the evil American Empire. The Americans can continue to shout, no one is listening. The Americans may continue to charge, but no one will be running behind them. The American voice is getting dimmer, their evil cause, aggressiveness and warmongering have no followers...other than the 5 AngloSaxon has been powers and their semi colonies of Japan and South Korea. 

Who cares and wants to be the barking dogs of the Americans when the Americans could not carry its stick to whack anyone at will anymore?  For there are China and Russia watching and can turn to for support and protection.

The Americans must be feeling more lonely by the day with friends and foes not wishing to be seen with them and to be roped in or coerced to be American pawns. You can't lie and cheat all the people all the time. You can't bully, threaten and oppress people all the time. It is game over soon for the Americans. 

Today we are seeing the American begging to want to meet President Xi or Foreign Minister Wang Yi, just to show the world they could call the shot. Unfortunately the Chinese refused to see them. Nothing worth talking, and kept them waiting at the door. Who do the Americans think they are, that when they want to talk, want to visit Beijing, the Chinese must open the door to welcome them?

China would only talk to the Americans if the Americans behave like decent beans and on equal terms. No more wasting time talking about American agenda and on American terms.

The Neutrality Of Singapore Is Vital For Her Long-term Survival

If Singapore had truly wanted to be neutral, not choosing any side between China and USA, as repeatedly spoken by many Singapore diplomats, past and present foreign ministers and the three prime ministers, then Singapore leaders shouldn't have journeyed all the way to the USA and Japan to publicly and purposely thrash China and the Chinese People in front of the leaders of USA and the leaders of Japan, in order to carry favour and score points. Unfortunately such events did take place, not once but a few times.

Such behaviour was totally uncalled for, unnecessarily antagonistic, lack of statesmanship, diplomatically unacceptable and plain stupid,

Singapore leaders would do well to remember that 75% of Singapore citizens are of Chinese origin. Most of them take their Chinese heritage with pride and dignity. Most of them still have ties and relatives in China. Most of them are doing business in and with China and the Chinese People. Almost all of them, except the few Bananas, still respect China as their fathers' and/or mothers' original Homeland.

Singapore leaders should always be grateful to the Chinese Majority who have voted them into power to enjoy the status, wealth, position and prestige they now have. Without the Chinese votes, Singapore leaders past and present would not be where they are today.

Singapore leaders shouldn't take for granted that the Chinese voters will always continue to support and vote for the present ruling political party to enable them to continue to do what they are doing and enjoying. The wind of change is blowing very strongly. If they were to continue with their Anti-China and Anti-Chinese stance, they may be in for a rude shock in time to come, both internally and externally.

The neutrality of Singapore is vital for Singapore's long-term survival. There is no two ways about it. Siding with the USA on the one hand, while belittling, condemning, demonizing or thrashing China on the other, is not neutrality. It is obviously outright taking sides. Vice versa is also outright taking sides. Even primary school pupils know this.

Therefore, if Singapore leaders have already taken side with Western Powers, especially USA, and especially also with Japan (the perennial Arch-enemy of China), then it is time to mend their ways - attitude, behaviour and actions. This can take a very long time but it has to start now.

Remember, the long-term survival of Singapore depends on her ability to maintain her neutrality.

ASEAN was formed on the basis of Neutrality. As an active member of ASEAN, Singapore must remember and actively uphold the principle of neutrality at all times. Just paying lip service is hypocritical and deceptive, to say the least.

Fashion houses profited from forced labour?

French magistrates have opened an inquiry into allegations that four fashion groups including Uniqlo and the owner of Zara profited from forced labour of the Uyghur minority in China, a judicial source said Thursday. AFP

What a joke. The French court inquiry about a few fashion houses profiting from alleged forced labour. How hypocritical can these evil white men be? France profited not only from forced labour but from massacring the natives of Africa when it invaded the continent.  France was also involved in the slave trades.  Who else were involved in the slave trades, many times more evil and cruel than forced labour? Heard of slavery, hunting and capturing African slaves in Africa? Britain was the biggest slave traders, and America the biggest beneficiary and the worst exploiters of African slaves. France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Holland, Belgium,etc etc, practically all the European powers were engaged in the slave trades.

Oh, my apologies. Slave trading and using slaves to work in the farms and factories and what else were not profiting from forced labours. It was profiting from slave labour. My humble apologies for not being able to tell the difference. USA, UK, France, Germany, Spain, Holland, Portugal, Belgium etc etc did not profit from forced labour.  But they got free labour, and became very rich and powerful, free labour from the slaves.

Yes, yes, such nice and friendly and kind and compassionate and generous countries and people. Ok, go and investigate these companies on the alleged and fabricated charges of profiting from forced labour. There is no need to investigate countries profiting from slavery.

Ya?

There is another justification why slave labour should not be a crime. The slaves were subhumans and did not have any rights like human beans unlike the forced labour. Since the slaves were subhuman beans, so no need to bother, no need to investigate. Right?

COVID-19 Vaccines: "Benefits Outweigh The Known Risks" Sounds Like A Magical Concoction Of A Snake Oil Seller?

"The authority’s assessment is that the benefits of the vaccines continue to outweigh the known risks in a pandemic."

1. Assessment is not conviction and belief. Assessment is just an analysis based on available information and it is purely a mathematical calculation. Nothing else. It is not based on considerations of human sufferings, damages to human health and potential deaths, irrespective of statistical percentage of damages occurred in a given population.

2. To the vaccines producers, of course, it goes without saying, the benefits outweigh the risks. The benefits to the vaccines producers are huge monetary gains on a regular basis, without any risk.

3. The risks are borne by the victims of the effects from the vaccines. The vaccines producers do not and will not suffer any risk because they have protected themselves against any liability and claims for compensation by inclusion of a clause to absolve themselves of any responsibility and liability for mishaps caused by the vaccines that they have produced and sold.

4. To the government, of course, the benefits outweigh the risks because the government does not suffer the risks. Anyone taking the vaccination is made to sign a no-claims indemnity form to absolve the government of any responsibility and liability from any mishap, neglect or mistake.

5. The assessment is that the "benefits outweigh the known risks". Pay special attention to the word "KNOWN". It means the assessment has not considered the UNKNOWN but potential, probable and possible risks. Therefore, the benefits may not outweigh the potential, probable and possible risks. These are long-term risks that only time will tell. At present, nobody is the wiser. Not even the scientists who invented or created those vaccines, because they have not tested the vaccines for long-term effects yet. So, basically, the assessment by the government is an ostrich mentality assessment of convenience, at best.

6. So, basically the phrase "benefits outweigh the known risks in a pandemic" sounds more like a magical concoction of a snake oil seller.

Think again.


SSO - 5 July 2021.

 

PS.  I am putting this up first as this is a current hot topic. Still have several pieces in the queue.

China has assume the role to defend the victims of white oppression and bullying

 A BBC reporter asked China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi why China is supporting Argentina in claiming the return of the Falklands Islands. He said China is so far away and Falklands have nothing to do with China. China should mind its own business.

Wang Yi told him Xinjiang, Hong Kong and Taiwan are so far away from England and the US and have nothing to do with them. They should also mind their own business.

China has not only stood up but has declared that it would support the causes of oppressed and victimised countries and people against white supremacy and hegemony, bullying and oppression.  China has identified 17 islands still under the control of the white colonialist and would support the cause for their return to the original natives of the islands.  And this includes the return of the Ryukyu Islands.

In his speech on the centenary of the CCP, Xi Jinping said China would not be bullied by any country.  Anyone trying to do so would be bashed. This is a warning to all the little dogs and cats, the cronies and lackeys of the evil American Empire, especially those in Asean, that they would be caned very harshly if they try. 

China is now taking its rightful place as a super power and also the defender of the weak nations against white supremacists and hegemony. China would not only speak up, but would support and act on this commitment as the leader of the developing nations. China is willing and ready to commit military forces to the defend the oppressed countries of the world.

China's wolf warrior diplomacy is now not only defending China against the attacks by the West but also defending the rest of the world by the West. The West have been accusing China of aggressiveness when they were whacking China daily with all kinds of wild allegations and fake news. They did not know what is an aggressive China yet. Now they are going to see China standing up into their faces and poking into their eyes to protect the victims of the West.

The West think it is their right to oppress and suppress and bully the rest to the world. This is the past, no more. China, as a responsible leader of the world, would stand up for what is right and would defend the weak against the bulllies and gangsters. Now the West would know what is an aggressive and responsible China. They want China to play a bigger and more responsible role in world affairs. China is stepping into the plate.

From now on, China would not be the defensive party, taking the blows.  China would be the initiator and would redress the injustice committed by the West against the countries and people of the world.

Welcome to a New World Order that not only the West can do the shouting and bullying, China would not allow that and would also be shouting back. There is now a level playing field and injustice and inequality of the past would have to cease. There would be a rule of law for all countries. No more lawlessness of the American and western hegemony.
