NOVANEWS Posted by jimcraven10 China Charges the United States Is Encouraging “TERRORISM” in Xinjiang Post Categories: Asia Agence France-Presse, Reuters and Associated Press / The 4th Media News | Wednesday, July 3, 2013, 10:45 Beijing Print Media blame US for stoking Xinjiang violence The United States is encouraging “terrorism” in Xinjiang, Chinese state media said on Monday, also claiming separatists in the region – which has a large Uygur minority – had fought alongside Syrian rebels. Beijing denies the unrest in the vast region bordering Central Asia – which last week left at least 35 people dead – is due to ethnic tensions between Uygurs and China’s majority Han. It has vowed to crack down on “terrorist groups”, ordering military exercises ahead of Friday’s anniversary of major ri...

NOVANEWS Posted by Jim Craven   NOTE TO READER: This classic essay of the principles of Leadership and Generalship by Zhuge Liang or Kong Ming is an excellent starting point in assessing the quality of “leadership” where one works or indeed of the whole nation. The notion of academic degree programs in “Leadership” that purport to train and “credential” leadership are part of the problem and show they have no idea of what real leadership is and how it is mandated and legitimated. People who sign up for such programs, basically self-anoint and self-proclaim themselves as having the “stuff of leadership” and being “destined to leadership” to be parachuted down on those they will purport to “lead”; and all this without ever having met or having any mandate from those they will purport...

NOVANEWS   by jimcraven10   With the Beijing Olympics looming we see more attempts to remind the world about the alleged June 4, 1989, massacre of democracy-seeking students in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square. The New York Times, which did so much to spread the original story of troops shooting student protesters there with abandon, has recently published several more articles condemning the alleged massacre, including one suggesting there should be an Olympic walkout. Other media, including Britain’s usually impartial Guardian and Independent, and Australia’s Sydney Morning Herald, have chimed in. None are interested in publishing rebuttals. This effort is impressive, especially considering the overwhelming evidence that there was no Tiananmen Square massacre. A recent book b...

NOVANEWS   In a future conflict with China, we could see U.S. planes falling out of the sky or great naval vessels sitting dead in the water after being hit with EMP blasts. By Michael Snyder End of the American Dream Most Americans assume that the U.S. military is so vastly superior to everyone else that no other nation would ever dream of fighting a full-scale war against us.  Unfortunately, that assumption is dead wrong.  In recent years, the once mammoth technological gap between the U.S. military and the Chinese military has been closing at a frightening pace. China has been accomplishing this by brazenly stealing our technology and hacking into our computer systems.  The Pentagon and the Obama administration know all about this, but they don’t do anything about it.  Perhaps...
