American terrorists - what is fake is real, what is real is fake

 Compare what the Uyghurs have in Xinjiang to what the Native American Indians have in those reservations. Those are real concentration camps than reservations in the USA, isolated and under-developed. What the Uyghurs have in Xinjiang is now exposed on social media for all to see. What the Native American Indians have in those reservations, well, they will never put on show on social media. Hiding it is taking care of the problem. I am sure even those thinking of visiting are not encouraged citing security reasons. On the pretext of protecting the Native American Indians, the real reason was to protect the Whites themselves.

Of course, the pro-USA shrills are shouting that everything in Xinjiang are fakes. Even the high-speed rails in China are being described as fakes. Those bridges, dams, airports and highways are all fakes. What about those high-speed rails, ports and airports in other countries that China constructed? Are they also fakes? Ask the Indonesians, the Cambodians or the Thais. Why do they choose China to construct those fakes and not the USA for the real stuff? Are they not silly, you would ask. They should equally claim that the countries engaging China to build those high-speed rails must have been paid by the CCP to keep it a secret that those high-speed rails are fakes. Laughable isn't it!?

Vloggers on social media were also accused of being paid by the CCP to post fake videos of China. Paying thousands of dollars and using valuable time to visit China just to get paid by the CCP to post pro-China videos on social media is a tad too unbelievable. We know the USA is doing that, but do not cast others in the same mold. Not every country is as evil as the USA, spending hundreds of millions for propaganda.

In praise of Colonialism? Colonialism is so sweet, or so evil!

 Reading history written by the white men that were the colonial masters of the world would make one feel great to be a colonialist, to feel proud of being the subjects of the colonialists, with the privilege of singing God Save the King or the Queen. In reality, the colonialists were the butchers, the murderers, looters, plunders of the colonial people. But this part of their history was whitewashed and only briefly mentioned. They only wrote about how great they were, how they civilised the colonised people, how gracious and generous they were to the poor and uncivilised subjects, the victims of their colonial conquests. And they left behind infrastructure, buildings of govt and an administrative system for the benefit of their subjects.

How many millions were massacred by the colonialists in North America, South America, the Caribbean, Africa, the Middle East, India, China and SE Asia? Where got massacres, where got genocides? The native Americans were sent to the reservations to protect them, to set them free. The African slaves were hunted down to be sent to America to be gainfully employed in the cotton fields with no pay, or as jesters and servants of their colonial masters. Where got massacres in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, the Philippines, Malaya, Indonesia, the southern Pacific Islands? If there were massacres, how come the murderers were invited with open arms back to these countries and pray like great white gods by the descendants of their victims?

In Singapore and Hong Kong, the love affairs of the locals, the subjects of the British Empire, still live on today with many speaking dearly of their beloved queen in England, now their beloved King Charles, everyday praying that they be invited to have tea in Buckingham Palace. Many statues of the colonial masters are re erected in parks to remember them as the kind souls that brought peace and progress to these swamp land of illiterate natives, coolies and fishermen. Without these great white men, they would have no chance to read Shakespears or European poetry and history.

Many streets are still proudly adorned with the names of the colonials masters, bridges with their names carved on them. And scholarships, wow, free money to educate the children of the subjects in top British and European universities to become scholars and WOGs. And the subjects did not know where the money came from? Where the colonialists made their money? Plunders, looting, slavering, banditry, piracy? Without knowing history, or not wanting to know history, they are happy and grateful with the few dollars thrown at them without knowing that the money were robbed from their forefathers by force, by treachery, by stealing their land and resources, by making them slave labour. 

Without knowing the past, it can be tragic for the present generation to worship their great white gods, the colonial masters, that were nothing but robbers, murderers, pirates, racists, slave traders, drug traders, that became rich from robbing and plundering the wealth of the native people and their land.

Should the descendants of colonised people be grateful and hold their former plunders and murderers in awe and respect? I think many will do so, with great pride and humility. Colonialism is so great, so good, so generous, despite the genocides, massacres, plundering, slavery and abuses of human rights, dignity and pride of the subject people...because they did not know what really happened. Well, subjects of empires should not be talking about pride and dignity. They should be grateful to be offered jobs as clerks, cooks, servants and gardeners to serve the great white gods.

Incidentally, would they be charging a fee to visit and pay respect to the statues of the great white gods?

Some would say if not of colonialism and the colonial masters, they would not even have jobs as coolies and clerks. They did not want to know that if there were no colonialism, their forefathers would not have fled their bankrupt fatherland or motherland, invaded, plundered and impoverished by the colonialists.

Without knowing history, they would worship the murderers, rapists and robbers of their forefathers and motherland. Singapore also had Japanese governor during the Japanese colonisation of the island. Now that everyone has forgotten about the brutal massacre of hundreds of thousands of the island's residents, would anyone be dull enough to suggest putting up a few statues of the Japanese colonialists as well? The Japanese were our dear colonial masters too!

From your obedient and humble servant. Only the seniors in their 70s or older would understand what this phrase means. It was the official version of a signing off statement by a British subject or HMS employee after writing his letter/correspondence to his superior.

PS. Cecil Rhodes was a racist, white supremacist that made his money from slavery, selling opium and stolen land. The few dollars he coughed out for scholarships and building universities were pittance from his loot. He had an African state named after him, Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe after the white men were sacked from the stolen land.

Ukraine War - Putin no longer wants to negotiate

 Putin no longer wants to negotiate with Ukraine. Modi is trying to do what Wang Yi did in the Middle East, negotiating a peace deal between Iran and Saudi Arabia. Modi is trying to broker a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia. Was he pushed by the West and Zelensky to make this move knowing that Russia and India have good relations and Ukraine is toast? That attack on Kursk put paid to any such deal.

Political analysts, Alexander Mercouri and Alex Christoforou, are of the opinion that Zelensky is now trapped in Kursk using an attempt to lure Russia troops away from Eastern Ukraine. Instead, Putin just sent in more troops towards Kursk from inside Russia, creating a bigger force that is trapping the Ukrainians trying to hold territory inside Kursk.

Winter is not too far away, and Ukrainian troops trapped inside Kursk will be dead ducks, just like Hitler and Napolean's army, fighting the weather more than fighting with the Soviets. Russia will pick them off like flies. Most Ukrainians fighters will probably just surrender rather than facing certain death.

Zelensky is trapped with troops diverted towards Kursk and losing ground in Ukraine Itself. Some have unofficially commented that NATO countries are providing fighters in the Kursk incursion, which is going to be worse off for Zelensky and NATO. Like the situation in the earlier stage of the conflict, they were frantically trying to extract foreign personnel from the steel plant in Eastern Ukraine when the battle was lost and suffered heavy casualties and sacrificing several helicopters to no avail.

Trying to hold Kursk and use that as a territorial exchange should any form of peace deal be brokered is a wet dream. Putin will not allow Ukraine to be used by NATO to threaten Russia. Zelensky should just drop his clownish behavior.

Do your part China...to stop the American terrorists

 So many real stupid beans by the millions allowed just a small group of scoundrels to manipulate them to their Deaths of these Scums self interests of their wealth and prestige.

Latest George Galloway's talk show of sheep been lead to the slaughters.

Also China why wanted to be a Super Power when she do not want to be lead and protect the weaker Nations from being bullied by the Western Barbarians and Savages?

She should be more Pro Active to intervene in the ravages and slaughtering of the weak from the Western Savages Countries.

Not thinking of only uplifting her own from poverty and wealth.

Now considered as had Arrived and must take strong actions in reforming the World's Order.

Weak and poor Countries would then have the confidence in China and shall able to resist the Western Barabians.

Now, just kept mum had Russia to be their Hatchet Man alone to fight their Savages.

Do your part China!

American business is about maxing profits, China is about selling to the masses with marginal profits

 How much greater has Trump made the USA during his Presidency from 2016 to 2020? Did the trade war result in USA's re-industrialization and the ability to decouple completely from China? In fact, the USA had imported more from China after Trump's trade war effort and was greater than ever before. Was the USA able to produce most of the items itself or source uncompetitively from elsewhere like the EU? The only stuff they are able to produce are toilet papers to export its inflation overseas.

When decoupling becomes unworkable, they invented 'de-risking'. How to de-risk when China is still in control of essential raw materials needed for USA's military, plane makers, semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceutical industry and consumer products?

China had just issued new control over Antimony, a flame retardant, needed for the USA military, citing 'dual use' security issues, the new narrative invented by the USA which China is following suit, tit for tat. China is not playing all its cards at once and China has all the cards hidden close to its chest that it can use to retaliate. The control of Gallium and Geranium exports by China stunted the semiconductor manufacturing building frenzy in Arizona and is killing the Chips Alliance. Wonder how the extraction by the USA and the West to strip such rare metals from discarded laptops and other electronic devices is progressing and how competitive will that be to counter China.

Many plans to open up rare earth mines elsewhere have failed. The USA thought that extracting rare earths from Mongolia in a joint venture will counter China's control of Gallium and Geranium. But China killed it straight away by disallowing the use of its Tianjin Port for use by Mongolia to ship the ores to Japan for refining. Setting up refining facilities in Mongolia is costly and takes years and expertise that Mongolia lacks. Moreover, China can still kill such competing ventures by cutting prices that will bankrupt the investors. Are they willing to undertake such risks?

What was the fear actually over China's overcapacity citing the fate of others around the world? China's control over refining capacities in every sector will put investors trying to set up competitive logistics in grave doubt over investment feasibility. That is what the USA is trying to put a stop to. The USA cares little about the fate of other countries trying to compete with China. Most countries are not competing with China as China is already providing them with products so cheaply that they do not find it sensible to produce themselves. The economies of scale and comparative advantage of production does not accrue to small countries. Why should they be bothered with China's overcapacity?

It is the same imaginary fear mongering over threats to small countries so that they need the USA to place military bases for such countries' protection. The Africans no longer buy into the snake oil.
