So, no more attacks on Serbia? ;)
When, oh when, are we going to make treason a capital offense again? People like this make me sick to my stomach. They have not one ounce of loyality to their country nor to their fellow citizens, and no appreciation for the freedom and liberty we enjoy. Freeman should get to live out the rest of his life in China.
China won’t return to greatness until they become democratic.
And much, much more...
Former greatness? As in thousands of years ago?
Gee, I guess Freeman hasn't seen some of the posts here where there are always a few who still do....
China's recent anti-satellite test, growing participation in UN peacekeeping missions, and near tripling of defense spending since 2000 mark its emergence as a considerable military power.
That's only what they have admitted to, Freeman.
Yet, we should not react to this. Indeed, he urged the CNA, whose job it is to worry about such things, to reject our apparent nostalgia for the aggressive expansionism of our now inconveniently vanished Soviet rivals and to avoid writing narrowly focused and highly tendentious reports mandated by Congress to justify the single-issue agendas of our military-industrial complex or, for that matter, our humanitarian-industrial complex.
This China apologist has a little bit of trouble with the Law. And he gets his knickers in a twist when rejected by those people who are concerned for AMERICAN national security...and true liberty for the oppressed around the globe...and so he attempts to misrepresent and demean them when he calls them "Complexes".
H'mmmmm. Dwight Eisenhower he isn't. Seems to me that the guy has a "complex" of his own...
They fantasize of China’s “greatness” during Mao’s “culture revolution”.
The Chinese will never surpass the US. They have neither the technology nor the ability to think outside the box like we can.
Freemans view: "Calling our campaign against terrorists a "war" is a transparent deception, intended to ensure that political correctness will preclude questioning about either the conduct of the campaign or the governance of the nation. To an unconscionable extent, this has worked.
"As a political technique, what the administration has done is not in the least original. Herman Goering testified at his trial: "...the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders..." http://www.niemanwatchdog.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=ask_this.view&askthisid=179
He then continued: "I've decided to project my fantasies of a benevolent Chinese Empire sweeping over the globe leading us into a new age of enlightenment."
The Panda is not tame. It is merely the Smiley face that the Dragon wears to hide its barbarism.
When the Chinese can help 95% of their population that live in abject and horrible poverty and bring them to 30% of the standards of living level of the poorest people in the US, then we may consider talking about China as a real Super Power.
The last time China contributed to civilization on its own was 2000 years ago.
Isn't it still...at least in theory, if not practice? Just unenforced.
People like this make me sick to my stomach.
Ditto.
They have not one ounce of loyality to their country nor to their fellow citizens, and no appreciation for the freedom and liberty we enjoy.
Which really calls me to question whether or not his affinity for China is the very thing which he would likely deny if asked...the fact that it is in fact the last major bastion of the Communist conspiracy. And becoming a real superpower. Which he says we shouldn't worry about...
Freeman should get to live out the rest of his life in China.
He, and a number of other Quislings likely have this very thought in mind...I just don't think, once the balloon goes up, that they are going to be getting the kind of treatment they expect...
Agree 100%, and anyone who thinks otherwise is an IDIOT and a Knee Jerk Reactionary. The Chinese are not as closely as innovative as the Russians were, not by a long shot, and the Soviet Union is no more.
Got waylaid into a rather hostile political argument at lunch last week with a Chinese expat co-worker.
“What gives you the right to invade another country?” she demanded, referring to Iraq.
“Numerous violated and ignored UN resolutions,” I replied, though a better retort might’ve been, “That’s nice, coming from the occupiers of Tibet.”
Two words: Cultural Revolution.
This is indeed, an undeniable "Smoking Gun".
It is an abject admission of his irrationality...and mental illness.
And just like the Russians, they build their stuff on the cheap. No self respecting US Submariner would ever set foot in a Rickshaw Rick or Ruskie submarine, they are just plain too dangerous.
