China is not a war criminal aggressor? Hong Kong, Tibet, parts of Manchuria, and basically anything in that hemisphere aside from Taiwan. Bullshit statements like that erase any credibility one might’ve given you

Thank you for writing. We disagree. May I remind you of the repeated wars the USA fought in Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, Somalia, the list goes on. Hong Kong is a part of China. So is Tibet. So is Manchuria. Also your name is lol.

Why would anyone guarantee China food and oil? What are they guaranteeing us? Fentanyl?

FYI: Drug addicts tend to blame Others for their bad stupid dumb choice...

But by all means ignore the fact the USA by its own choices became a nation of fat drug addicts, by all means blame China, or the Devil, or maybe it really is the Jews fault!

No, seriously. There is a difference between being an addict and being dead. Everything on the street has fentanyl in it, and it is much more addictive.

Yes, this is a horrible, but largely self-inflicted problem. Hey, if someone literally murdered all the Sacklers I would cheer! I doubt the USA will have the discipline to hang them for mass murder, seeing as the USA clearly lacks the discipline to even step away from the all-you-can-eat buffet, the bottomless soda, and the triple latte supreme machiatto whipcream sprinkles. If you wish to study a country with an effective anti-drug policy I suggest Singapore, where drug dealers get executed.

I agree. My point was that the CCP have demonstrated ill will so many times that we owe them exactly nothing.

No one "owes" anyone anything.

I consistently argue for a policy of military containment and economic competition, even cooperation.

The people you think are your enemy, ... might not be your real enemy.

Your real enemy is Russia, especially Putin, but also his coterie of criminal kleptocrats like Lavrov, Peskov, Sakharova, Shugoi, i.e. anyone in the Russian mafia-state apparatus is your real enemy.

China knows this and Uses them. For what? Oil!

When China knows it has oil guaranties then it can truly start stabbing Russia in the back.

All this is consistent with everything I have said in my newsletter. Thank you for reading, and your patience!

They destroyed China and created a disgusting culture of lies. https://youtu.be/wjj_mkc6b6s?si=C9yY0XfesQwFPjgj

Oh if it were still 1989 I would definitely be an "oust the CCP" sort, though back then I figured the President knew better (he did not!). But it is not 1989, its 2023. China hasn't had a famine in 50 years, hasnt had a civil war in 100, and is now an industrialized country. I hope you are not falun gong influenced...

you need to react to China as it is NOW, not as it was way back when.
