There’s also a video of the singing of the US national anthem while holding our US flag.
“We would like to make it clear to the very small group of unscrupulous and violent criminals and the dirty forces behind them: Those who play with fire will perish by it,” one Chinese official said on Wednesday, according to The Associated Press. “Don’t ever misjudge the situation and mistake our restraint for weakness.”
The Chinese have no compunction whatsoever with killing 1 million of their own should it be necessary to achieve their political aims.
Or 10 million.
They’ve done it before, and more.
Hong Kong protesters waving American flags and signing The Star Spangled Banner. as they face armed Chinese...while a spoiled American fencer KNEELS during the national anthem on foreign soil.
Shaking my damn head.
Part 3, actually. The first massacre occurred in 1919. Can a Hong Kong resident stand in the path of a tank? We may see.
Hong Kong is a beautiful city with wonderful people. Beijing would do well to leave it alone.
I have long said we should not be doing business with China, enriching them at our expense, educating their citizens, letting them spy on us, steal our intellectual property. At the end of the day, we've empowered our enemy.
So, do we go to war over Hong Kong? No way, not our concern. But, maybe we pair this with the fact that China is our enemy and we cut them off? Freeze their funds, tariff their products maybe, but may look to ban them where they hurt them the most, hurt us the least. And then aggressive work with US companies to relocate to the US, to start up new operations in the US. China should be treated no different than Iran or North Korea. We need the guts to do it.
Otherwise Mao was right, we are a paper tiger.
AOC approves.
