China Promises Nothing

“I wish to put an end to rumors circulating online claiming that China has agreed with the United States not to provide arms to Iran. Let me be clear, no such communication has taken place. China has neither admitted supplying arms to Iran nor denied it. Our security agreements and defense cooperation are sovereign matters for China alone to consider.

No foreign country has the right to meddle in China’s internal affairs. Leaders around the world should weigh their words carefully before speaking.

China welcomes the decision by President Trump toward de-escalation and the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. We remain committed to world peace and to safeguard regional stability through dialogue.”

– Guo Jiakun, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, China

Translation: yes, we’re arming Iran. No, we won’t stop. Don’t try to cut off our oil or we’ll make sure you regret it.

China literally floods our country with spies, both at the business and collegiate level. They steal our IP’s, they funded the migration trails from C. America, they have the cajones to lecture us about meddling in their internal affairs?

Would be a damnable shame if Three Gorges had an “accident”.

  And whose fault, pray tell, is that? Who allows it?

    It is our “elected” leaders fault…but it is also our fault because we haven’t hung all of them yet. We think that casting a vote is the beginning and ending of our Civic Duty.
    
    Yes, I have 3 fingers pointing right back at me as I call out the rest. I get it. We all let this happen.
    
    But back to my original point. I will not suffer china state propagandists telling me to stay in my lane, when they damn sure didn’t stay in theirs.

      I am grateful to China for supplying g Walmart with cheap and useful items. I am also grateful for the materials they supply the USA to make medicine. I do like their stable political mannerisms much better than USA hee haw blather. At least they are not bombing 7 countries. Humility is a virtue.

        Walmart used to be that way, when Sam was still alive.
        I don’t trust China to make anything health related.
        I have zero faith in US politics or those who engage therein, but i have less faith than that in anything chinese.

I think we need to be a little careful about proclaiming that the infiltration of bad guys into the US is the fault of we the people. The fact that our culture is open to exploitation is a consequence of the characteristics that made our culture ‘free’. To have created the environment that would have precluded the infiltration, would have required our culture be different in ways that would also have limited our freedoms.

I don’t think it is too late to pull the US back from the precipice – but after that happens, if it happens, we will all be better placed to choose the requisite guardrails going forward.

  I never suggested We the People were at fault. I implied that the fault should be placed at the foot of a government that ignores the Constitution and is more concerned with their secrecy, fraud and corruption than in protecting We the People. There is no reason why America has to open her educational institutions to foreigners. That’s done so the universities can enrich themselves.
  
  And spies? Gee, I thought that was the purview of the FBI, but they’re more interested in oppressing We the People than catching foreign spies.
  
  Sorry if I sound snarky. I’m just fed up.

  The Taggert Tunnel has collapsed. The nation must be cleansed and then rebuilt if we are ever to regain our morality and freedom.
