After Years of Joe Biden Threatening War, Media Frames Xi’s Statements on Taiwan as Aggressive

ANDREW ANGLIN  There cannot be more than one China. The idea never made any sense. It’s a weird relic of the 1950s. People don’t really even seem to understand that Taiwan claims it is the government of all of China. It’s not called “Taiwan,” officially it is called “The Republic of China.” Now, Joe Biden is claiming it is an independent country, which no one ever claimed, including the government of Taiwan. What happened was: there was a communist revolution, and the non-communists fled to Taiwan, and were supported by America as the government of China. Then, in the 1970s, when China opened up, the US itself agreed that there is only one China. It’s called “The One China Policy.” Joe Biden has apparently totally reversed this policy. It’s not at all clear what the curren...

Stalin and the Chinese Revolution

Posted by: John Phoenix Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin Presentation made by Harpal Brar to the Stalin Society on 18 October 2009 to mark the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China and the forthcoming 130th anniversary of the birth of Stalin _______________ In the latter half of the 1920s the Trotskyist opposition (Trotsky, Zinoviev, Radek and Kamenev) accused the ‘Stalinist bureaucracy’ i.e. the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (Bolshevik) [CPSU(B)] and the Comintern of selling the Chinese Revolution and the Chinese communists down the river – of betraying the Chinese Revolution. This slander has since then been picked up, and repeated thousands of times, by the Trotskyite counter-revolutionaries, revisionist renegades, social democrats,...

Putin remembers ‘outstanding’ Kissinger

The Russian president has described the late statesman as “far-sighted” and “wise” Criminal Henry Kissinger Condolences have been pouring in from foreign leaders and dignitaries after veteran US diplomat Henry Kissinger passed away at the age of 100 on Wednesday. Russian President Vladimir Putin has said it was thanks to the American statesman that the world became a safer place back in the 1970s despite the intense rivalry between the US and the Soviet Union. In a letter to Nancy Kissinger published on the Kremlin’s website on Thursday, Putin wrote that an “outstanding diplomat, a wise and far-sighted statesman has passed away.” He added that the former US secretary of state, who served from 1973 to 1977 under Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, was considered an autho...

When the Torturer is the ‘Savior’: Can BRICS, Global South Help Us Escape the West’s Hegemony, Contradictions

The BRICS Meeting in South Africa in August 2023. (Photo: via Wikimedia Commons) By Ramzy Baroud & Romana Rubeo Without downplaying the internal contradictions among the main countries that established the BRICS group or the newcomers, one cannot help but ponder a world without US-Western domination. At the zenith of the mass protests in Egypt on January 25, 2011, Twitter, Facebook and other Western-based social media platforms appeared to be the most essential tools for the Egyptian Revolution. Though some observers later contested the use of the terms ‘Twitter Revolution’ or ‘Social Media Revolution’, one cannot deny the centrality of these platforms in the discussion around the events which attempted to redefine the power structures of Egy...

Russia-China de-dollarization almost complete

95% of trade between the countries is now settled in their national currencies, according to Andrey Belousov ©  Getty Images / Martin Puddy Western currencies have been almost completely phased out in Russia-China trade, as nearly all payments between the countries are now carried out in rubles and yuan, Russian First Deputy Prime Minister Andrey Belousov announced on Monday.  Since the introduction of Western sanctions on Moscow, Russia and China have accelerated the use of their own currencies in trade. According to Belousov, 95% of all transactions between Russia and China are now carried out in one of the countries' national currencies, and given the rapid expansion of mutual trade and cooperation, this percentage is likely to grow. Speaking at a meeting...

HS2 – they should have gone to ChinaSavers!

Posted by: John Phoenix In 2009 the then Labour government set up a company called HS2 Ltd to look at the possibility of a northern version of the High Speed (HS)1 line running from London St Pancras to the Channel tunnel at Ashford in Kent.  The HS2 route would run from a new super station in Euston to Birmingham and split into two legs from there, one running into Manchester while the other went to Leeds. It was the Conservative/LibDem coalition government which made the HS2 project a reality in 2012. The cost of this HS2 was supposed to be around £37.5 billion but the project has been dogged with many problems including popular local campaigns against routes, along with all the usual corruption associated with enterprises using public finance, and estimates made in 2...

Xi Outmaneuvers Biden in San Francisco

PEPE ESCOBAR  On one side of the table, a Global South leader at the top of his game. On the other side, a mummy selling the illusion he’s the “leader of the free world.” That was bound for a cliffhanger – before, during or after the crucial bilateral involving the world’s top two powers. Already during the introductory remarks, US Secretary of State Tony Blinken, sitting on the right side of the mummy, was as terrified as James Stewart afraid of heights in Hitchcock’s “Vertigo” – sensing doom would dawn at any second. Then it did – at the final presser. Joe Biden, the actor playing The Mummy, following a proverbial smirk, said Chinese President Xi Jinping is “a dictator”. Because he is the leader of a communist country. All those previous elaborate plans un...

China, Please Go International with Your Domestic (((US Oligarch))) Education Awareness Program

RICHARD SOLOMON  I free-subscribe to a Substack written by a China expert—or anti-China expert. He sometimes appears on US corporate media outlets to push his war-against-China viewpoint. A typical example of the ADL-CIA-MIC sycophant “intellectual” midwit who populates America’s think tanks or non-think tanks. In one of his Substacks, he accused China of anti-semitism, translating domestic Chinese news article paragraphs that mentioned Jewish oligarch aka (((US oligarch))) influence on America’s foreign policy. While I applaud China’s domestic education program, it’s time to take their Rothschild Zionist messaging international, i.e., to China’s English-speaking global media platforms. First, a disclaimer. Followers of the Tao find irrational racism ugly. I in no way suggest Ch...

Will China’s Rise be as Problematic as the Rise of Germany and Japan? What About Jewish Supremacist Power and the Problems of White Submissivism?

https://youtu.be/sQqQSQFtSo0 tc.In contrast, there are only 13 million Jews in the world. And their nation, Israel, is a tiny speck in the Middle East. Jewish super-power owes to Jews controlling the US(the most powerful nation on earth), the UK, Canada, and the EU, but their influence hangs in the balance of White Submissivism, i.e. unless white gentiles continue to remain servile and defer to Jews, Jewish Power can collapse overnight. It’s no wonder Jews are so invested in Ukraine. Not because they care about ‘democracy’, ‘rules-based order’, ‘Western values’, or Ukrainian sovereignty but because they see it as a potential territorial base for the Tribe in the heart of Europe, indeed a re-attainment of the Pale of Settlement where the Jewish population of the Russian Empire ...
