COVID-19: A Pretext to Demonise China

US China Coronavirus

The attempts by the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes to shift the blame against China over what they called a “cover-up” of the origin of the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) are unsubstantiated allegations designed to deflect attention away from the real culprit and portray China as the arch-villain of the “West”. The ongoing propaganda campaign to demonise and make China a scapegoat allows the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes and their Anglo-Zionist media to fan the flames of anti-Chinese racism and instilling personal hatred of Chinese globally, “not only to create deeply-ingrained false beliefs in a population, but also to entirely erase undesirable political ideas from the public mind,” never mind serving as cannon fodder for U.S. aggression in a reckless imperialist showdown.

Scapegoating China

The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes – U.S., Britain, Australia, Canada and to lesser extent New Zealand, the so-called “Five Eyes” Espionage Network – have begun ramping up their use of the mainstream Anglo-Zionist media and other propaganda tools (including Social Media) under their control to demonise and scapegoat the Socialist PR of China. Their attempt is to shift the blame for having the world’s largest number of infection cases, and the largest number of people who have already died from coronavirus-related deaths leading to the collapse of their national healthcare systems, which have been falling apart at the seams for years. Their lack of preparation has been exposed by the pandemic; scapegoating China is just a coverup. Despite lack of evidence, the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes continue to point the finger straight at China, who they named as the number-one culprit without any science-based evidence. Unfortunately for those churning out this propaganda, their feeble excuses have not been backed up by many experts, and not even by their intelligence and national security officials, who have officially dispelled the theory that Washington and London have gone to pains to promote about COVID-19 accidentally being leaked from a Chinese laboratory, which is where the idea of “China’s guilt” comes from and the need to make Beijing pay billions of dollars in “compensation” for damages, writes Vladimir Odintsov in New Eastern Outlook. The newly identified coronavirus is SAR-coV-2, short for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2. It is associated with fever, cough, chest pain, and shortness of breath, the complex of symptoms that form the diagnosis of COVID-19.

U.S. President, the self-aggrandising Racist-in-Chief Donald Trump and his regime have claimed, without any evidence that COVID-19 started in a Chinese lab in the Chinese city of Wuhan, in Hubei Province. Trump’s unsubstantiated allegation is based on an article  that appeared in the right-wing The Washington Times on 24 January 2020 entitled: “Coronavirus may have originated in a lab linked to China’s biowarfare program.”  The fake story drew nearly all its false information from a single source, a former Israeli military intelligence officer, Dany Shoham, a “China specialist”. According to this Jewish expert, the “deadly animal-borne coronavirus spreading globally may have originated in a laboratory in the city of Wuhan linked to China’s covert biological weapons program”.

The article was updated and edited on 25 January 2020, with the following note: “Since this story ran, scientists outside of China have had a chance to study the SARS-CoV-2 virus. They concluded it does not show signs of having been manufactured or purposefully manipulated in a lab, though the exact origin remains murky and experts debate whether it may have leaked from a Chinese lab that was studying it (See here and here). However, the lie is repeated so often by Trump and his cohorts that people started to believe in it. The Washington Times is a right-wing religio-fascist propaganda outlet. It has published many columns which reject the scientific consensuses on climate change, and on ozone depletion. The Zionist propaganda outlet engaged in promoting Islamophobia and spreading disinformation related to the COVID-19.

In his recent rant against China, Trump was whipping up his support base with renewed racist slurs against China over COVID-19 pandemic. Trump’s Secretary of State, the belligerent evangelical extremist Mike Pompeo called China a “rogue actor” and urged European governments to side with the U.S. for its new war against China. It is worth noting that Pompeo was the director of the C.I.A., the world’s biggest terrorism organisation, who often bragged about: “I was the C.I.A. director, we lied, we cheated and we stole”, and of course, we terrorised and we assassinated. “It was like we had entire training courses”, he added. Overwhelming evidence show that the U.S. (not China) is a failed rogue state ruled by a tyrannical incompetent regime with a remarkable way of burying its failings. It wields wealth and military power with almost Hollywood glossiness to cover up the deep corrosive behaviour that is eating away at our culture,” according to a recent study.

The so-called “China Virus”, or “Kung Flu” is part of the U.S. regime’s anti-China misinformation campaign of inciting anti-Chinese hatred. The key is to dehumanise and demonise the Chinese by filling American minds with fabricated lies of horror. Trump allegations that COVID-19 have been released by a laboratory in China are unsubstantiated because no evidence has been provided by Trump or Pompeo. “Labelling COVID-19 the ‘Chinese Virus’ or ‘Kung Flu’ is entirely in keeping with Trump’s pattern of dog-whistling. Trump’s racist slurs over the pandemic being ‘Chinese Virus’ or ‘Kung Flu’ must give China pause for disgust with the Trump’s racism. The terms are also designed to trigger racist fears of foreigners (Chinese and Muslims as disease-carriers), while preserving plausible deniability” (FAIR, 24 March 2020). “It is pure fabrication”, said Wang Yanyi, the director of the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a civil facility researching treatments against existing viruses. “We didn’t even know about the existence of the virus, so how could it be leaked from our lab when we didn’t have it?” She added. Chinese state councillor and foreign minister Mr. Wang Yi rejected U.S. “lies” over the origin of COVID-19.

Trump’s racist label is a convenient misnomer designed: 1) to deflect attention away from U.S. criminal actions and from Trump’s bungled response to COVID-19 pandemic, cataclysmically affecting both the health and well-being of Americans, and the U.S. economy; 2) to demonise the Chinese people in the same way 9/11 was used to demonise Muslims and Islam; and 3) to offer the Trump’s regime a cover about a possible bio-warfare against China gone awry. Moreover, Trump’s racially-charged attack on China aimed: 1) to mislead the public and avoid responsibility for the (official) American death toll now passing 180,000 and 5.88 million confirmed infections nationwide, 2) to smear China’s efforts control of the pandemic; and 3) to shift the blame of U.S. incompetence in handling the COVID-19 outbreak on China. Blaming others is a well-toned U.S. practice aimed at making the U.S. an “exceptional” or “indispensable” rogue nation, which means all other nations are “dispensable”. Blaming China for COVID-19 pandemic “is consistent with a pattern of shifting blame to other nations or people for the U.S. regimes failures. China is the scapegoat for U.S. mistakes, merely a distraction”, writes David Schultz, a professor of Political Science at Hamline University in St. Paul, MN. Considering the facts about the disease and the disproportionate response, it could be another psychological operation against China and world’s public opinion. China has been blamed of downplaying the seriousness of the disease, concealing related data and even running the World Health Organisation. The Chinese government has repeatedly and vehemently refuted the accusations and denounced the Trump’s regime for its attempts to politicise the deadly pandemic.

The question that anyone must be asked: “why the U.S.-led Western regimes are embarking on a relentless anti-China propaganda campaign, insinuating that China sought to spread the Virus globally – though China was the first victim?” In reality, the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes and some European regimes are spreading disinformation to demonise China.

Moreover, the U.S. unfair attack against Chinese tech giant Huawei Telco, the world’s largest producer of 5G superfast technology, citing potential concerns over its alleged espionage activities on behalf of Beijing as justification have long-been rejected by Huawei Corporation and the Chinese government described the attacks as “economic gangsterism”. In reality, the U.S. cannot compete with China’s sophisticated technology in fair competition. Moreover, Huawei is replacing Cisco and those other American firms with backdoors into their equipment to spy for the CIA and NSA with its better and less expensive equipment.

When it comes to espionage, the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes have infringed on the privacy of every citizen, including, activists and political leaders worldwide. For example, Australian Security Intelligence Organisation and Australian Federal Police (ASIO and AFP) overtly spying on and monitoring the movement of every Australian citizen 24/7, using electronic devices such as, CCTV, smart phones, personal computers and Internet connection. This flagrant violation of people’s privacy made Australians the world’s most authority-obedient and authority-feared people. According to Edward Snowden, a former CIA employee and author of Permanent Record (Macmillan 2019), the use of the XKEYSCORE search engine  by the ‘Five Eyes’ Espionage Network enables almost unlimited surveillance of anyone anywhere in the world. Snowden described the Network as “super national intelligence organisation” that operates far beyond the laws of member countries. The U.S. is more interested in total U.S. domination through spying, which is why it paints the world in polarising Black and “White”, or “us” against “them” using aggression to threat any nation that refuse to kowtow to its demands..

Trump is hardly the only U.S. president to blame for U.S. anti-China’s policy and aggressive threats. Trump picked up where his predecessor, Barack Obama left off to carry forward U.S. aggression, terrorism, human rights abuses and injustice worldwide. Since the 1940s, the U.S. regime has been a bipartisan corrupt and bipartisan evil, no matter which Party is in power and who is occupying the White House. Both parties have presided over endless criminal wars and acts of aggression.  The regime remains the same regardless. The only difference between Trump and his predecessors is that Trump is overtly vulgar, and he is completely owned by the Israeli Jewish Lobby in Washington to advance Zionist interests in the Middle East at the expense of American interests. Indeed, U.S. policy in the Middle East has always been and remains driven mainly by Israeli priorities and Jewish politics in the U.S.

Trump’s China propaganda war vis-à-vis COVID-19 is that it lets the real culprits off the hook. In other words, Trump’s empty rhetoric and racism against China are designed to divert attention away from the U.S. This is a trick that, the U.S. used in the past to get away with war crimes. This manipulation of public opinion by the U.S. regime and the Anglo-Zionist media appears to be working. A recent Bloomberg poll has revealed that an overwhelming majority of Americans would be willing to spend more money on products if they are manufactured outside of China, with 40% saying they simply will not buy anything made in China at all. Furthermore, according to a recent Ipsos survey, more than 30% of Americans have witnessed someone blaming Asian people for the coronavirus pandemic (even though new research indicates that travel from New York City was the primary source of the U.S. outbreak, with New York’s outbreak originating in Europe).

U.S.-China relations have significantly deteriorated over the protracted trade war, the Trump’s regime accusations that Beijing was responsible for COVID-19 pandemic, its criticism over alleged “human rights” abuses in Hong Kong, Xinjiang Province, and U.S. crusade against Chinas technology, including Huawei Telco. As a result, anti-China sentiment has exploded in the West over the last two years fuelled by false propaganda disseminated by Trump and the Anglo-Zionist media. A March 2020 Pew research found that around two-thirds (or 73 per cent) of Americans have an unfavourable views of China, up from 47 per cent just two years ago, which is the most negative rating for the country since Pew began asking the question in 2005. The U.S. is by no means the only country experiencing this phenomenon. It is not better in Britain, Australia, Canada and much of Europe. This deliberate, systematic targeting of China and the Chinese by the Anglo-Zionist mainstream media has resulted in significant increase in hate crimes against Chinese. About 45 per cent of Chinese in Canada said they had been ”threatened or intimidated in some way”, fully 50 per cent said they had recently been insulted in public, 30 per cent said they had experienced . . . “some kind of physical altercation”, and 60% said the abuse was so bad “they had to reorganise their daily routine to avoid it”. One woman in her 60s said a man told her and her daughter “Every day I pray that you people die”. In Australia, a current Australia’s leading anti-China racism survey has so far documented 386 racist incidents, including abuse, physical intimidation and spitting. The survey also revealed that roughly 90 per cent of racist incidents were not being reported to police and the vast majority were perpetrated by strangers in public places. The Chinese government is rightly urging Chinese students and Chinese tourists not to travel to Australia. Chines students alone account for nearly 40 per cent of Australia’s $38 billion international “education industry”, and almost all Australian universities are heavily reliant on Chinese fees-paying students. On 06 June 2020, China begun advising its citizens to avoid travelling to Australia due to a “significant increase” in racial discrimination amid COVID-19. The Chinese Embassy in Washington DC received bomb and death threats. This suggests that public opinion has been turned against China, despite China being the first nation to detect the COVID-19, alert the world and provided a model to eliminate the COVID-19.

COVID-19 Possible Origin

COVID-19 was first reported by the Chinese authorities on 31 December 2019. Beijing first alerted the World Health Organization (WHO) to a “cluster of cases of pneumonia of unknown cause” in the city of Wuhan,  with Chinese authorities formally identifying the virus a week later. On 20 January 2020, China did its utmost responsibility and notified the Chinese public. As fast as it could, China published the genetic code of the Virus. On 03 January 2020 China notified the U.S. Centre for Disease Control (CDC). China also warned the WHO of COVID-19 human-to-human transmission during the first week of January. When COVID-19 was first discovered in Wuhan, the Wuhan’s and Chinese authorities reacted immediately with a total Lockdown, extending from Wuhan (11 million population) to the entire Hubei Province (60 million) – and subsequently beyond, covering the whole country. China’s reaction was decisive, immediate and with full discipline of the population.

All the above gave other countries time to prepare and do some forms of physical distancing, tracing and testing. Despite the Chinese government making much of this information readily available in their timelines, Western Anglo-Zionist media conveniently leave these crucial details out of theirs in order to advance distorted anti-China propaganda. For example, Associated Press’s (15 April 2020) widely circulated report, “China Didn’t Warn Public of Likely Pandemic for Six Key Days” was false, distorted because it contained many blatant falsehoods and omissions.

It is known that U.S. intelligence agencies were aware of the potential outbreak even before that. The BBC reported that a French patient treated in a hospital near Paris on 27 December for suspected pneumonia actually had the COVID-19. This means the virus may have been circulating in Europe many weeks before it was detected.  Before the WHO declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) on January 30, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act (CARE Act), also known as H.R 748 was introduced – by Senator Joe Courtney (D-CT) – over a year earlier, on 24 January 2019, at a time when most had not even heard of the Coronavirus, which was called by Trump as “the single biggest economic relief package in American history”. It is disingenuous for the U.S. and British regimes to say, “We did not have enough time to prepare”, despite having had ample warnings about the disease given by China and the WHO as early as January.

On 11 March 2020, WHO declared COVID-19 a “pandemic” when there is not the slightest trace of a pandemic. A pandemic might be the condition, when the death to infection rate reaches more than 12 per cent. In Europe, the death rate is about 0.4 per cent, or less. Except for Italy, which was a special case, where the peak of the death rate was 6 per cent. WHO, which is largely financed by “private partnership”, including Bill Gates & Melinda Foundation (BMGF) and Big Pharma, is a highly politicised and corrupt UN’s body. In fact, BMGF has already effectively privatized the international body charged with creating health policy, transforming it into a vehicle for corporate dominance”. (J. Loffredo & M. Greenstein, The Grayzone, 08 July 2020).The U.S. and BMGF do not fund the UN and its agencies, including WHO out of charity reason or in support of international law. The U.S. regime owns and controls the UN and all its corrupt agencies, including WHO. They are proven to be very useful tools to advance Anglo-Zionist interests.  It was only when WHO praised China’s effective response to contain COVID-19 and gave the world ample time to take health precautions, it invited the wrath of the U.S. and lost much of its U.S. funding. The U.S. withdrawal means that the Gates Foundation will become WHO top financier giving it immense influence over the global operations of the Organisation.

“Although WHO has been praised for its work to reduce some illnesses like polio, it has also recommended drugs and vaccines that have been found to be harmful and without significant clinical effect.’ A comprehensive view suggests that the WHO is more of a corporate interest agency than an organisation committed to preserving world’s public health. That’s not surprising due to the fact that 80% of WHO’s funding comes from “voluntary contributions” provided by private donors including pharmaceutical companies and industry groups like Bill Gates’ Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI), writes Kevin Ryan (Off-Guardian, 06/06/2020). GAVI is a private global health partnership with the goal of increasing access to immunization in poor countries, with the Gates Foundation being its single biggest funder, having donated $4.1 million since its formation in 2000. Since WHO begun colluding with vaccine manufacturers and private donors it has become a “corrupt over-politicised, bureaucracy that seemed incapable of responding to the fast-changing challenges of international health”, (The Lancet, 360, 12 October 2002). WHO’s assessment of COVID-19 is bureaucratic and is not based on science and seemed to lag behind scientific opinions. WHO has safely jumped to conclusions by ruling out the possibility that COVID-19 could be a man-made (combining various type of viruses – genetically manipulated) bioweapon.

While the origin of COVID-19, is still debated, all substantiated evidence leads to conclude that it originated outside of China and was transported to China in one way or another. “Patient zero” was with high probability somewhere in the U.S. and emerged likely sometime between August and October 2019. There is no conclusive evidence that the COVID-19 originated in China. It is most likely that COVID-19 was brought to Wuhan by U.S. military team taking part in the city’s World Military Games held there from 18 to 27 October 2019. The 300-strong U.S. contingent stayed at the Wuhan Oriental Hotel which is just 300 meters from Wuhan’s Huanan Seafood market where China’s outbreak began, thus “seeding and spreading” the Virus. “The U.S. team, known for their competitive skills, did terribly; only 172 participated, almost half didn’t even compete in their events.” Five of the U.S. team developed a fever on 25 October 2020 and were taken to an infectious-diseases hospital for treatment. The only country with Italy’s variety of COVID-19 is the U.S. In addition, COVID-19 was spreading in northern Italy months earlier than first thought. A retrospective analysis by Italy’s National Institute of Health has found traces of COVID-19 in waste water samples taken from Milan and Turin on December 18 — a month before the first case of the virus was reported outside mainland China and nearly a fortnight before Chinese authorities alerted WHO to the unfolding problem in the Hubei province. Furthermore, Spanish virologists had found traces of COVID-19 in samples of wastewater collected in March 2019, nine months before the disease was seen in China. Hence, COVID-19 might have spread around the world much earlier than initially thought.

Furthermore, at least 80 per cent of all infections in Australia occurred in the U.S. then travelled home, according to Australia’s Prime Minister Scott Morrison (see link here). There was no infection in Australia before 2,700 mostly “White” passengers from the Ruby Princess cruise ship were allowed to disembark in Sydney after an Australian Border Force (ABF) officer  mistakenly believed passengers displaying ‘flu-like symptoms’ had tested negative to COVID-19, when they had instead tested negative for the common flu. They began spreading COVID-19 among the population. It was only after the Australian government shut the border to the U.S. in late March and enforced a 14-day quarantine for all Australians coming home, that the Virus was suppressed, but not eliminated. There has never been a science-based elimination strategy to stop the spread of the Virus. Compared with Australia, New Zealand did much better by following China and rolled out a hard and immediate temporary lockdown with the aim of eliminating the virus altogether. New Zealand vigorous and decisive response to the pandemic was highly effective at minimising cases and deaths. New Zealand has the lowest COVID-19 death rate in the OECD. New Zealand’s science-based approach to border control coupled with a dedicated national public health agency that eliminated the Virus regardless of its origin.

According to a recent study published in the reputable journal Science: “Phylogenetic analysis of 84 distinct SARS-CoV2 genomes indicates multiple, independent but isolated introductions mainly from Europe and other parts of the United States” (PDF). Furthermore, Chinese, Japanese, and Taiwanese studies point to the U.S. as the most likely source of COVID-19. Furthermore, the recent outbreak of infection at the Xinfadi market in south Beijing “was a different strain than any previously existing in China, one that existed only in the US and Europe and could only have been brought in from the outside. And once again at a seafood market with no identifiable patient zero, no clear epidemiology (source and distribution) of a virus that did not exist in China” according to Romanoff (see links here and here). It “was the same as that in much of Europe – but much older than those in Europe, and ‘had been around for quite some time’ – and that can mean only that it came from the US because that was the source of all the original varieties many months ago.  At the time, multiple varieties of the Virus existed only in the U.S.”, according to Romanoff. And “since natural outbreaks can almost always be resolved to one location and one patient zero. But with COVID-19 (or COVID-20), not one country out of 200 has been able to do this”, added Romanoff.

Some argued that the origin of COVID-19 is not clear. However, we know that the U.S. has a long history of biowarfare. There is mounting evidence (see the links here and here) that COVID-19 pandemic originated in the U.S., which is pursuing a massive expansion of biological weapons program. In addition to its 13 Biosafety level 4 bio-labs (Wuhan-like) in the U.S., the U.S. has a network of secretive bio-labs located near the borders of Russia and China (e.g., Georgia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan). The Bulgarian investigative journalist Dilyana Gaytandzhieva has extensively documented the suspicious activity of the U.S. military and its dozens of secret bio-labs overseas, particularly those in the Republic of Georgia and Ukraine. (See this short investigative documentary by Dilyana Gaytandzhieva). For decades, successive U.S. regimes have resisted the creation of an international transparency mechanism for bioweapons research and opposed any international biosafety verification mechanism.

Many nations all over the world are collaborating to prevent the spread of COVID-19 infections in bid to find solutions and save lives. As a result of collaboration, Russia has developed the world’s first COVID-19 vaccine (Sputnik V) and has become the first nation to register it with health authorities on 11 August. According to alternative news media, “Clinical trials of the vaccine were launched on 18 June and all 38 volunteers developed immunity.” The vaccine has been developed jointly by the Gamaleya Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology, and the Russian Defence Ministry, which is on U.S. sanctions to promote U.S. Big Pharma. The production of the Vaccine has already started. In China, Tianjin-based CanSino Biologics is poised to launch a phase III clinical of COVID-19 vaccine. China has worked hard “to generate an efficient vaccine as soon as possible and to be transparent” when doing so, said Stéphane Paul, a vaccine researcher at the University of Lyon in France. Its vaccines would be a “global public good” and would be made available to all nations. Instead of praising the great efforts by Russia and China, Western political and the Anglo-Zionist establishments continue their unjustified poisonous demonisation of both nations.

Rather than communication and collaboration, the U.S.-led regimes are spreading misinformation and deception to escalate the crisis and race toward the abyss with utter contempt for humanity and international order. Using VOVID-19 as a smokescreen, the U.S.-led regimes are fuelling racism, plotting aggression, unilaterally imposing economic terrorism (disguised as “sanctions”), bullying and threatening nations that refuse to submit to U.S. dictates. The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes are uniquely lawless aggressor regimes, sugar-coated and propagandised by the mainstream Anglo-Zionist media as “defenders” of “human rights”, “freedom” and “democracy”. The opposite has always been true. The persecution, state-sanctioned torture, and violation of human rights of the Australian digital journalist and founder of WikiLeaks Julian Assange is an example of police state tyrannies. Britain, the U.S. and Australia in particular cannot claim to be concern about freedom and human rights while they collectively and unjustly persecuting Mr Assange.

There has never been a regime in history that has overtly abuses human rights, supressed freedom, derailed democracy and undermined international law around the world like the U.S. regime. And there has never been a regime in history that has committed war crimes and crimes against humanity as heinous as the U.S. regime and got away with it. In addition to committing war crimes and violating international law, the U.S. is the world’s number one state sponsor of terrorism. Only Israel come a close second. Both states are ruled by lawless barbaric regimes that impose the greatest nuclear threat to humanity. Both regimes illegal occupiers of foreign lands and gross violators of human rights. Almost the entire world, as opinion polls regularly indicate, considers Washington to be the primary source of global terrorism and aggression combined with its flagrant violations of international humanitarian law.

Furthermore, just like it weaponised the dollar to impose sanctions on China,, Russia and Iran, the U.S. regime is doing its best weaponising the COVID-19 to cause immense human suffering globally, and install fear to control its ignorant and easily manipulated public to fulfil an Orwellian vision. Washington has exploited COVID-19 pandemic to impose more economic terrorism on the Iranian people while bullying other nations and international businesses to prevent urgently needed medicine and medical supplies from entering Iran. The belligerent Pompeo called OVID-19, “a live military exercise”. He added: “This is not about retribution. … This matter is going forward – we are in a live exercise here to get this right” (see link here). It follows that the U.S. – not China – is the “Sick Man” of the world that feeds on the misery and death of millions of victims.

In contrast, throughout its 5,000 years history, China was not involved in aggression and expansion. It is the least expansionist nation on the Planet. China is not forcing other nations to copy its model and is not interested in reshaping other nations’ system in China’s image as the U.S. has been doing violently. China is a partner in a multilateral world where sovereignty and international law are respected. Unlike many countries, including the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes,  India and Brazil, China has not only succeeded in  coping with the pandemic and controlling the outbreak on the domestic front, China has also helped many other countries in this fight (Nature, 17/03/2020), including Italy, Spain, Serbia, Iraq and Iran, among others to do the same. In an unprecedented campaign to screen virtually all 11 million people in the city of Wuhan, the government is reaching its goal, with 6.5 million tested so far. According to AFP, Wuhan is a city of “pool party”, and the people do not seem to be concerned about CIVID-19 anymore. Moreover, China’s economy has returned to growth by 3.2 per cent in the June quarter bouncing back from a 6.8 per cent decrease. It is set to become the only G20 economy to grow this year.

Furthermore, China is on the verge of completing a vaccine trial of COVIC-19. Like China, Cuba’s – despite seven decades of U.S.-imposed barbaric ‘embargo’ (under siege) – handling of the Pandemic could be a role model for others to emulate. In contrast, the U.S. (the epicentre of CIVID-19 outbreak) response to COVID-19 is dismal and remains exceptionally vulnerable because of its uniquely broken healthcare system. The U.S. regime has enough bombs to terrorise people around the world, but not enough ventilators, respirators, face masks or even beds to accommodate the flood of sick Americans. Why emulate the U.S. when it failed in its most basic duty to serve its citizens? COVID-19 has exposed the exploitative nature of Western monopoly Capitalism which is enforced by state power (repression) at home and wars of aggression and terrorism abroad.

The pertinent question here being why should China submit to Western demands for “investigation” into Covid-19 when a finger falsely pointing at China? Therefore, any independent inquiry into the origin of COVID-19 must demand an explanation from the U.S., including tracking down its American patient zero. Identifying patient zero is critical to trace the genetic structure of the virus, understand how the transmission took place, and see if there has been a change to the genetic structure of the virus. Tracing who patient zero has come into contact with can also help understand how spreading took place and curb further transmission by focusing resources to contain it.

It may be a coincidence that the primary U.S. Army Biological Warfare Laboratories (USBWL) and the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) are located in Fort Detrick where USAMRID was shut down in summer 2019 over fears that weaponized pathogens might escape. According to a report by the New York Times in August 2019, “safety concerns at a prominent military germ lab have led the government to shut down research involving dangerous microbes like the Ebola virus.” Today, scientists at Fort Detrick – the largest military bioweapon facility in the world – continue to do intensive research on man-made biological weapons in general, and engineered viruses in particular. On 01 April 2020, the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) restored the full operating capability of the USAMRIID, but the details of the shutdown remained unclear. “It may be a coincidence that absurdly under-performing U.S. military athletes came to Wuhan for the World Military Games in October and have since been accused by China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs of being the source of the COVID-19 pandemic. It may be a coincidence that at the same time those athletes were in Wuhan, the World Economic Forum, the Gates & Melinda Foundation, Johnson & Johnson, and other Establishment titans were hosting a pandemic simulation called Event 201”, writes scholar Kevin Barrett. Event 201 was held in New York in October 2018. It is an electronic ID program that uses forced vaccination as a platform for digital identity. Event 201, a high-level exercise that imagined how the public and private sector would coordinate in the event of a pandemic. The event so closely mirrored the outbreak of COVID-19 just two months later that Johns Hopkins released a statement denying that it had made a “prediction” about the pandemic. (Claire Chretien, Life Site News, 11 August 2020).

Event 201 simulated how the world would respond to a coronavirus pandemic which swept around the planet. Event 201 predicted a death toll of up to 65 million people worldwide, mass lock downs, quarantines, a stock market dive of 15 per cent-plus and countless bankruptcies and unemployment, censorship of alternative viewpoints under the guise of fighting ‘disinformation’, and even floated the idea of arresting people who question the pandemic narrative. Just a few weeks later, the first 2019-nCoV infected person was identified in Wuhan. “It may be purely coincidental that the virus appeared in Wuhan, … just in time for the Chinese New Year, when most Chinese travel to visit relatives. Likewise, it could be coincidental that the real-life COVID-19 pandemic almost perfectly mimics Lockstep, the Rockefeller Foundation’s recipe for a global police state emerging on the back of a coronavirus-style pandemic”, added Kevin Barrett. Furthermore, Event 201 focused on simulating a worldwide epidemic, which was coincidentally based on the SARS outbreak and called 2019-nCoV, the name first given to the outbreak in China, before WHO changed it to a more generic form, COVID-19. The similarities between the rehearsal outbreak and the current COVID-19 outbreak have prompted many theories about Bill Gates “predicting” COVID-19, it is undeniable that the policy proposals that emerged out of the exercise are being implemented today.

The Gates Global Health Empire

For over twenty years Bill Gates and his Foundation (BMGF) have been vaccinating foremost children by the millions in remote areas of poor countries, mostly Africa and Asia. Most of their vaccination program had disastrous results, causing the very illness (polio, for example in India) and sterilizing young women (Kenya, with modified tetanus vaccines). Many of the children died. Many of the programs were carried out with the backing of the WHO and – yes – the UN Agency responsible for the ‘Protection of Children’, UNICEF “, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Bill Gates has no qualification or expertise in any field, let alone public health. He does not even have a first-aid certificate. Gates is a pharmaceutical evangelist, and vaccines salesman. Calling himself a “philanthropist”, Gates has doubled his wealth using health to the detriment of the lives of people in Third World countries. (For more on this, see: J. Loffredo & M. Greenstein, The Grayzone, 08 July 2020). Gates is the ultimate symbol of the 1%er White American elite. Using his vast wealth, Gates continues to intervene in the education and health of people globally. WHO has allowed the eugenicist billionaire Bill Gates – who cares not one jot for the rest of the world – to monopolise the health care industry, with unprecedented influence over WHO policy and decisions. Bill Gates, who pretends to be a health “expert” (he is not) to cover-up his sinister “depopulation” agenda, has monopolized the health care industry and singlehandedly set the global health agenda. Lawrence Gostin, the director of WHO’s Collaborating Centre on National and Global Health Law told Devex, “the potential of a private foundation becoming the largest donor to the organisation could be ‘transformational’. It would enable a single rich [man] to set the global health agenda”. When it comes to vaccination, Gates makes WHO’s health policies, literally excluding any medically and scientifically proven preventive measures. Gates influence was seen as troubling, with health advocates fearing that: “because the Gates Foundation’s money comes from investments in big business, it could serve as a Trojan horse for corporate interests to undermine WHO’s role in setting standards and shaping health policies.” With regard to the COVID-19 scare and Gates’ stated goal of vaccinating the entire world population, however, people should be most concerned that he has worked diligently on mechanisms of population control. Gates argued that individuals receive “digital certificates” indicating they are vaccinated for or immune to COVID-19. The certificate would be required before an individual can resume normal life and be able to go to work, to school, or even to the grocery store.

Furthermore, the Gates Foundation ‘have been behind decades of education interventions in this country—all of which have failed to deliver on their promises, but have drained funds from public schools and undermined public school teachers’. Bill Gates is a “disruptor”, said Diane Ravitch, a historian of education at New York University and co-founder and president of the Network for Public Education. Gates vision of American education “always involves privatization. It always attacks public control, and democratic control, of schools. And it very frequently involves technology, because what they are interested in is cutting the cost of education, and the most expensive aspect of public education is teachers”, added Ravitch. The Gates Foundation has been working on depopulation policy and dictatorial control plans on global politics, aiming to obtain the primacy on agriculture, technology and energy”. Gates said, his main goal is to reduce world’s population by targeting non-Western (Third World) countries, not those countries that using much of the Planet natural resources and causing the biggest destruction to the environment. In February 2010 in Southern California TED Talk “Innovating to Zero”, Gates said: “If we are doing a real good job [vaccination], we can reduce the world population by 10% to 15%”, (see Link here).

According to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. of Children’s Health Defence: “Vaccines, for Bill Gates, are a strategic philanthropy that feed his many vaccine-related businesses (including Microsoft’s ambition to control a global vaccination ID enterprise ) and give him dictatorial control of global health policy. According to Tucker Carlson, “vaccine is not the goal, reordering society is the goal.” Quoting the corrupted director of WHO director, Carlson said: “We will not, we cannot go back to the way

things were.” (Must listen to Carlson here). In short, a dystopian future for humanity.” The Gates vaccine is not really a vaccine per se, it is a cover-up to disguise his evil depopulation agenda. In 2017, “promising his share of $450 million of $1.2 billion to eradicate polio, Gates took control of India’s National Technical Advisory Group on Immunization (NTAGI), which mandated up to 50 doses of polio vaccines through overlapping immunization programs to children before the age of five. Indian doctors blame the Gates campaign for a devastating non-polio acute flaccid paralysis (NPAFP) epidemic that paralysed 490,000 children beyond expected rates between 2000 and 2017. In 2017, the Indian government dialled back Gates’ vaccine regimen and asked Gates and his vaccine policies to leave India. NPAFP rates dropped precipitously.

In 2009, the Gates Foundation funded tests of experimental HPV vaccines, developed by Glaxo Smith Kline (GSK) and Merck, on 23,000 young girls in remote Indian provinces. Approximately 1,200 suffered severe side effects, including autoimmune and fertility disorders. Seven died. Indian government investigations charged that Gates-funded researchers committed pervasive ethical violations: pressuring vulnerable village girls into the trial, bullying parents, forging consent forms, and refusing medical care to the injured girls. The case is now in the country’s Supreme Court.

In 2010, when Gates committed $10 billion to the WHO, he said “We must make this the decade of vaccines.” A month later, Gates said in a TED Talk that new vaccines “could reduce population.” And, four years later, in 2014, Kenya’s Catholic Doctors Association accused the WHO of chemically sterilizing millions of unwilling Kenyan women with a  “tetanus” vaccine campaign. Independent labs found a sterility formula in every vaccine tested. After denying the charges, WHO finally admitted it had been developing the sterility vaccines for over a decade.  Similar accusations came from Tanzania, Nicaragua, Mexico, and the Philippines. In the same year, In 2010, the Gates Foundation funded a phase 3 trial of GSK’s experimental malaria vaccine, killing 151 African infants and causing serious adverse effects, including paralysis, seizure, and febrile convulsions, to 1,048 of the 5,949 children.

In 2013, mass vaccination with the live oral polio vaccine occurred among Syrian refugees, when 1.7 million doses of polio vaccine were purchased by UNICEF – which is like WHO funded by the Gates Foundation and Big Pharma. This was done in spite of the fact there were no reported cases of polio in Syria since 1999. After the mass vaccination program started, cases of polio began to reappear in Syria. (For more on this, see: Are UNICEF Live Polio Vaccines Causing Polio among Syrians? 1.7 Billion Polio Vaccines Purchased by UNICEF). A very similar mass vaccination of children with the live oral polio and measles vaccines occurred in the typhoon-hit Philippines in 2013, in spite of the fact that measles rates are very low and declining in the Philippines, and that there has not been a single case of polio in the Philippines since 1993.

In 2017, WHO reluctantly admitted that the global explosion in polio is predominantly vaccine strain. The most frightening epidemics in Congo, Afghanistan, and the Philippines, are all linked to vaccines. In fact, by 2018, 70% of global polio cases were vaccine strain. It is important to know that vaccines are now Big Pharma’s multibillion dollars business.

A study by Morgensen (Morgensen, S. W. et al. 2017) showed that, the “WHO’s popular DTP vaccine is killing more African children than the diseases it prevents. DTP-vaccinated girls suffered 10x the death rate of children who had not yet received the vaccine. The WHO has refused to recall the lethal vaccine, which it forces upon tens of millions of African children annually.” The track record of Gates Foundation, UNICEF, and WHO does not match up to the image they like to project. In Kenya, a mass sterilisation of young women and girls of children bearing age (14 – 49 years) resulted from anti-tetanus vaccination program funded by UNICEF and WHO that caused the Catholic doctors to become suspicious. In reality, tetanus vaccination has been used as a cover for birth control method. The vaccines were laced with the anti-fertility agent Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) which was developed by WHO in 1992. On behalf of Gates, the WHO has been traveling in Third World countries and sterilising countless millions of women without their knowledge through the fraudulent tetanus vaccination programs where the vaccine is laced with HCG, in fact permanently vaccinating women against pregnancy.

Finally, “global public health advocates around the world accuse Gates of steering the WHO’s agenda away from the projects that are proven to curb infectious diseases: clean water, hygiene, nutrition, and economic development. The Gates Foundation spends only about $650 million of its $5 billion dollar budget on these areas. They say he has diverted agency resources to serve his personal philosophy that good health only comes in a syringe.” Many people are warning Gates is “not to be trusted” and urging Gates himself to volunteer with his children to be the first guinea pig to receive the rushed-out COVID-19 vaccine. Gates, of course, like to take advantage of poor children in Third World countries because they are defenceless against a wealthy White American man with a sinister and viciously aggressive agenda not only to prevent, at almost any cost, births in Third World countries, but also using the population as guinea pigs for drug experiments. White supremacism is what all wealthy American billionaires share. Evil deceit is their primary weapon of choice.

Gates contribution of millions of dollars to the development of a COVID-19 vaccine and testing is not part of efforts to fight the Virus, it is part of Gates agenda to control world’s population and “transformed human beings into guinea pigs and slaves, violating sovereignty, and free will”. His past involvements in vaccines have caused the death of many innocent people. Furthermore, Gates is using COVID-19 and the Lockdown: 1) to impose a new totalitarian order or a “New Normal”, 2) to exert greater control over the population and collect valuable financial data, and 3) to push for “cashless” society. We now know that the Lockdown failed to “alter the course of the pandemic” as it “destroyed millions of livelihoods”. In fact, the Lockdown is causing many problems to societies, including children. “The repercussions of the pandemic are causing more harm to children than the disease itself,” said UNICEF director Henrietta H. Fore. Fore joined other leaders of UN agencies, including the WHO, FAO, and WFP, in signing a call to action published in The Lancet, citing COVID-19 response strategies such as “physical distancing, school closures, trade restrictions, and country lockdowns” as  contributing to child malnutrition globally. However, despite unsustainable, confused, contradictory, and unjustifiable recommendations, people accept the directive of higher authority. The Lockdown proves to be a good control tool for the “new order” to desensitize and keep the population in a constant state of fear to be more easily controlled and manipulated.

The lockdown provides a distraction and a pretext to crackdown on legitimate protests – often tared with the “leftists” and right-wing extremist brush – against the decadence of Western values of racism, inequality and injustices that have become a stable diet in most countries, including the U.S., Europe and Australia who claim to be more “civilised” than others. In fact, COVID-19 is a pretext for mass social control. Led by the U.S., many “regimes around the world are using COVID-19 as an opportunity to grab more surveillance control and police state powers, institute mask and vaccine mandates, accelerate the push towards a completely digital world, enact more corporate bailouts, and generally, extreme control and involvement in citizens lives. The sheer magnitude of the COVID-19 operation is unparalleled, with the most recent similar event being the attacks of September 11, 2001. As with the 9/11 attacks, the predator class is using COVID-19 as the excuse to push plans and agendas which predate the spread of the novel coronavirus,” writes activist and author Derrick Broze. WHO and its financier, the Gates Foundation are misleading the public that cash money can spread diseases. There is no evidence that COVID-19 can be transmitted via cash money. Gates has gone on record saying “life will not go back to normal until we have the ability to vaccinate the entire global population against COVID-19.” In an interview with Rosemary Frei, Bill gates reveals the aspects of his sinister agenda. It was also revealed in an intercepted human intelligence report that Bill Gates offered $10 million bribe for a forced Coronavirus vaccination program in Nigeria. After which, an Italian politician demanded the arrest of Bill Gates in the Italian parliament. She also exposed Bill Gates’ agenda in India and Africa, along with the plans to chip the human race through the digital identification program ID2020.

The evidence against the Gates Foundation is overwhelming. Bill Gates use of “conspiracy theory” to defend his actions is designed to deflect attention away from his criminal agenda. No one is spreading “misinformation” about Gates’ agenda of full digital control of world’s population. American ruling elite and large corporations are obsessed with the evil illusion of “One World Government”, achieved whether by consent or conquest to control world population and Earth natural resources. Their aim, often disguised as “good intentions” and “humanitarian”, is to enslave every nation and justified “White supremacy”. COVID-19 pandemic opened the door to activate their agenda with increased surveillance and censorship. It is worth noting that Gates’ Microsoft Windows 8 Operating System was discovered  to have a built-in back door for NSA surveillance.

 

“Human Rights” as a Political Instrument

The anti-China campaign goes across the board. The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes has ramped up it attacks of China over alleged “freedom” and “human rights” abuses against Chinese Muslim minority in China’s Xinjiang Province and in Hong Kong. Hong Kong which has been experiencing (U.S.-funded) violent protests (riots) and terrorism by U.S.-funded rioters and agitators is a Chinese territory and an inalienable part of China. Overwhelming evidence show that the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes are exploiting Hong Kong riots as an entry point to weaken China, just as they did in past centuries as imperial powers during the Opium Wars. In other words, Hong Kong is used (as a ‘pawn’) by the U.S. and British regimes to interfere in China’s internal affairs. The U.S. Senate passed the Hong Kong Autonomy Act, which would sanction “foreign individuals and entities that materially contribute to China’s failure to preserve Hong Kong’s autonomy.” The new legislation is the Senate’s response to the Hong Kong National Security Law. Congress is also working on confronting China militarily, with lawmakers working out a plan to give the Pentagon funds to increase its footprint in the region, a plan dubbed the “Indo-Pacific Deterrence Initiative.” Trump’s regime Defence Secretary, Mark Esper has repeatedly identified China as the Pentagon’s number one priority. The U.S. plan is to threaten China by infringing on China’s legitimate and indisputable maritime claims in the South China Sea. With more than 400 military bases equipped with nuclear weapons surrounding China, the U.S. military continues its encirclement of China and China enters a “state of siege.”

Urged by the U.S. regime, Australia, Britain and Canada have attacked China’s legitimate move to impose a restrictive National Security Law on Hong Kong. The new Security Law is supported by the majority of Hong Kong population. On 30 June 2020, China’s top legislative body, the standing committee of the National People’s Congress (NPC), voted unanimously in support of the new National Security Law on Hong Kong, which, according to Beijing, is designed for the purpose of safeguarding China’s national security in Hong Kong. The new Law bans and putting an end to secession, subversion, terrorism and treason (colluding with foreign powers), along with any form of foreign interference in Hong Kong, and most of all, forbids money laundering. The gloves are off, and China is determined to act decisively. The Law designed to counter months of U.S.-Britain orchestrated riots, terrorism, vandalism and arsons by anti-China rioters, who have been rightly described as bigoted racists. (Ajit Singh, The Grayzone, 09 June 2020).

The foreign ministers of the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes issued a statement, expressing “deep concern” over the new Hong Kong National Security Law.  China rightly described the statement as “irresponsible and unwarranted” and represent a “gross interference in China’s internal affair”. The foreign ministers ignored the draconian repressive laws enacted by their own governments. The so-called “anti-Terrorism” laws were enacted and used by the Anglo-Saxon regimes to terrorise Muslim communities and infringe on their freedom are far more repressive than the new security law in Hong Kong.  The U.S.-led regimes cannot talk about human rights and freedom while they continue to enact draconian repressive laws to crackdown and freedom and civil liberties in their own countries. In Britain, police have been given new power (13 August 2020) to stop, question, search and detain people in relation to espionage and foreign interference.

Australian responded to the New Security Laws by suspending an extradition treaty with Hong Kong and offering the so-called “skilled” Hong Kongers a “safe haven” in Australia, including a five-year graduate visa for students and a pathway to permanent residency. The Morrison’s government will extend the visas of 10,000 Hong Kongers already in Australia. Australia has also begun coercing and bribing “skilled” Honk Kong Chinese, investors and businesses in Hong Kong to relocate to Australia. One of Australia’s most despicable anti-China propagandist, Peter Hartcher called it (quoting the Canadian Lawyer Richard Kurland), “the greatest capital harvest in recent history”, reminiscent of the West illegal and immoral harvesting of healthy human internal organs in Third World nations. It is part of the West “humanitarian” efforts. The Chinese Embassy in Canberra rightly condemned the Morrison’s government and accused Australia of groundless accusations, disinformation, double standards and gross interference in China’s internal affairs. “We urge the Australian side to immediately stop meddling in Hong Kong affairs and China’s internal affairs under any pretext or in any way,” said a Chinese Embassy spokesman. China should open the Hong Kong floodgates to unskilled rioters and criminals now and force the Australian government to live up to its words. (more on Australia below).

Britain is also suspending an extradition treaty with Hong Kong and offering Hong Kongers, including rioters and criminals way out of Hong Kong to Britain with a clear pathway to settlement and citizenship. Canada and New Zealand have also ended their extradition treaties with Hong Kong. It means, Chinese are welcome to stay in Britain, Australia, Canada and New Zealand even if they commit or have committed crimes against China. They unfairly accuse Beijing of undermining “political freedoms” bequeathed to the island territory as part of a handover deal by Britain in 1997. China maintains the New Security Laws are required to quell Western-backed rioters and agitators in Hong Kong which is ultimately under Chinese sovereignty.

It is important to know that China is not cracking down on dissent. The Hong Kong rioters are not pro-democracy dissidents or “defenders” of “human rights” and “democracy”; they are foreign-sponsored terrorists masquerading as pro-democracy dissidents. If the Trump’s regime designates the Antifa (Anti-Fascist) movement – with little evidence of Antifa fomenting violence – as a “terrorist organisation”, China should designate Hong Kong foreign-sponsored rioters as terrorists’ organisation. Unlike the U.S., China has not responded with military force, Chinese police did not shoot or arrest law-abiding journalists, Chinese police did not beat reporters and cameramen, and China did not respond with police brutality. Unlike Trump, Chinese President Xi Jinping showed unswerving leadership and was not seen emerging from a secure bunker holding the White House Black Bible in a way reminiscent of a Bible thumping KK Klansman. Trump’s aim was to foment racial violence and injustice to please and energise his supporters. President Xi was not ranting about military solutions to overwhelmingly violent Hong Kong vandalism by U.S.-funded rioters and agitators. President Xi did not tell Hong Kong rioters “… Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you.” In fact, the Chinese government, including the police have been very tolerant in the face of violent rioters who have no known demands and no clear agenda after their initial demand – an extradition bill that allows criminal Hong Kongers to be sent to mainland China for trial – has been met. But isn’t it odd that after months of vandalism and riots the Anglo-Zionist media have never once asked what these Hong Kong racist “activists” want, what their actions mean or who they are?

More recently, the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes and the Anglo-Zionist media are condemning alleged China’s “human rights abuses” of the Uyghurs Muslim minority in China’s Xinjiang Autonomous Region. They claimed that China has detained millions of ethnic Uyghurs Muslims in its Xinjiang Province. The extraordinary claim is based on two highly dubious “studies”, if one can call studies. The first, by the U.S. government-backed Network of Chinese Human Rights Defenders, formed its estimate by interviewing a grand total of eight people. The second study relied on flimsy media reports and speculation. It was authored by Adrian Zenz, a “born-again” German far-right fundamentalist Christian who opposes homosexuality and gender equality, supports “scriptural spanking” of children, and believes he is “led by God” on a “mission” against China. While Uyghurs Muslims do experience racism and discrimination by the Han Chinese majority, it pales in comparison with the systemic racism and human rights abuses experienced by Muslims in Australia, Britain, Canada, al-Qur’an-burning neo-Fascist Europe and the U.S. These U.S.-led neo-Fascist regimes see Muslims as sub-humans. They have nurtured and encouraged very sophisticated, well-funded and well-organised anti-Muslim neo-Nazi groups and parties. They are labelled by governments and academia as “concerned communities” to enhance their image.

It is ironic that President Trump has recently signed the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act into law on June 17th, a bill that will enable even more sanctions against Chinese officials over China’s treatment of the Uyghurs Muslims in the Xinjiang province (The Grayzone, 21 December 2019). Australia, Canada and Britain followed the U.S. in condemning China’s alleged human rights abuses of Muslims (For more, see Chris Kanthan, Axisoflogic.com).  It should be noted that, with the exception of the fascist regimes of Israel and India, no other country in the world racially discriminates against and abuses the human rights of Muslims more than the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes. Moreover, in many of Europe’s racist neo-Nazi regimes, including Denmark, Belgium, France, Austria, Poland, Hungry, Norway, The Netherlands, among others, attacking Muslims and Islam is considered a “freedom of speech” and has become a career for many neo-Fascist politicians, writers, academics and “artists” who are so desperate to be recognized – by Zionist Jews – as Islamophobes for their vitriolic anti-Muslim bigotry. You will never hear or read about these neo-Nazi regimes criticising Israel or India for their crimes against Muslims under illegal occupation of their land. Criticising Israel’s terror and war crimes in Palestine is taboo and considered “antisemitism” or “hate crimes”. Like in Jewish-occupied Palestine, in Hindu-occupied Kashmir, thousands of innocent Kashmiris Muslims, including public intellectuals, students, politicians and social justice activists have been murdered.  Thousands of Muslims are languishing in prisons and have been subjected to brutal and criminal treatments by India’s religio-fascist Hindu regime. Like Israel, India is rewarded and unconditionally supported and armed by the same regimes that are claiming to be “concerned” about China’s alleged “mistreatment” of its Uyghurs Muslim minority. It is a classic double standard. The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes are the primary perpetrators of mass killing and maiming of millions of innocent Muslims. Is there a more sickening show of hypocrisy?

The irony is that the same Anglo-Saxon regimes and their media have failed to even see the millions of Muslims they killed in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and Libya. The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes are zealot, notably lacking in any sense of self-criticism. They conspired to perpetrate war of aggression against majority-Muslim nations, overthrow their legitimate governments and destroy their livelihoods because they refused to kowtow to U.S.-Zionist dictates.

The preaching of artificial constructs of “human rights”, “freedom”  and “democracy” by the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes is not a mere hollow rhetoric but steady simplistic fairy tales (lies) coupled with racism and chauvinism to tranquilize and brainwash their largely bewildered population and forcing them  into a programmed black and white world. The results are not only a self-induced ignorance to the ongoing acts of aggression and terrorism that are committed in their names, but also growing appetites among Western populations for mass killings of dark-skinned people – mostly Muslim women and children. Indeed, there is no serious opposition to U.S.-led Western acts of aggression which are literally killing millions of people around the world. It is like, “we have the right to go there and kill them”. They cite “human rights”, “freedom”, and “democracy” when smearing their opponents on the global stage such as China, Syria, Russia, and Iraq (with fabricated claims), then eagerly, openly, and unapologetically tramples human rights when convenient.

The U.S.-led criminally unjustified invasion of Iraq in 2003 by U.S.-led forces was based entirely on fabricated lies on behalf of the fascist state of Israel. It is estimated that at least 2.4 million Iraqi civilians were needlessly killed (see for example: Benjamin, M. & Davies, N. J.S., The Staggering Death in Iraq). As a functional state, Iraq was deliberately destroyed by American politicians and their Zionist handlers who have sown the seeds of ethnic and religious divisions among the Iraqi people. Simultaneously, Iraq was unconscionably looted of its assets, openly and without apparent inhibition, perhaps of U.S. $200 to $400 billion in total which disappeared without a trace, and with no information as to who received that money. Today’s Iraq remains a U.S.-occupied country.  To make its imperialist presence in Iraq felt by the Iraqi people, the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad is the largest in the world – the size of the Vatican City – operates as the CIA headquarter collecting and transferring espionage data. It is true that some U.S. troops have departed Iraq, and several hundred small military bases have been closed, there are an additional 40 or 50 very large bases that were built to be permanent to control Iraq as a U.S. colonial post. With an odious servility to Washington’s foreign policy, Britain, Australia and Canada, among other U.S. vassals, have no problem whatsoever committing heinous war crimes on behalf of its master, the U.S.  War criminals remain free and no one has been brought to trial and indicted for war crimes. International law and civilised norms crumble until the war criminals are prosecuted for their crimes in a Nuremberg-like war crimes tribunal.

The Anglo-Saxon regimes would never tolerate these rioters and agitators in their own countries. For a century and a half, Hong Kong was under brutal and repressive British colonial rule without a trace of democracy or respect for human rights. The notion of pro-U.S. 5th column elements controlling the city is unacceptable to China as it would be to virtually all other countries. The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes practise the most abhorrent human rights abuses and are the sponsors of the most egregious violations of human rights and international law. The U.S. in particular, by its global military, is the worst violator of human rights and international law in history, undeniably.

The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes seem unaware, or more likely do not care, that there is considerable irony in their denunciation of China while ignoring the very real ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people by the Israeli fascist regime. The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes are not only endorsing Israel’s daily terror and war crimes against unarmed defenceless Palestinians, they are the leading sponsors of Israel’s daily terror and war crimes. And as the Israeli regime continues bombing Palestinian civilians in their homes, Western media show little interests in Israel’s terror.  For more than seven decades, six million Palestinians have been living under the most brutal and murderous ‘Israeli’ (Jewish) military occupation, devoid of any human or civil rights. The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regime are openly financing and arming the Israeli fascist regime to exterminate the Palestinian people and steal their land. The Anglo-Saxon regimes are among very few regimes backing Israel’s illegal annexation of Palestinian land and U.S. Congress continues to be Israeli occupied territory. On 22 June 2020, 116 out of 198 Republican congressmen signed a letter to President Donald Trump asserting their support for Israel’s fascist annexation of much of Palestinian land in the “West Bank”, due to start shortly. The letter stated that the annexation was justified “based on the critical premise that Israel should never be forced to compromise its security,” indicating very clearly that actual U.S. national interests had nothing to do with it, as Philip Giraldi put it. The words of the letter were lifted directly from one of Adolf Hitler’s speeches. As always, Australia’s position could not be more out of step with world opinion. Australia is one of only two countries (with the Marshall Islands) to oppose a UN Resolution condemning the illegal annexation of Palestinian land by the Israeli fascist regime. Just as extreme, Australia voted against resolutions recognising Palestinian self-determination and the illegality of the Jewish colonisation (“Jewish settlements”) of Palestine.

While the violent rioting in Hong Kong is endorsed by the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon and other European regimes and the Anglo-Zionist media, the French Yellow Vests movement (Mouvement des gilets jaunes) populist uprising against the French government was condemned and looked at with horror despite the horrendous and criminal violence of overtly aggressive and racist French Police against largely peaceful and righteous demonstrators. It is important to point out that the French Police have been attacking Yellow Vest demonstrators with violent brutality, seriously injuring and maiming thousands of peaceful protesters. The French Police terror marks by their use of rubber bullets, tear gas, flash-bang grenades, batons, and water cannons. At least 24,000 Yellow Vest legitimate protesters have been injured, 24 lost one eye, 5 lost a hand, and 11 have died. 4,000 were arrested, 3000 of whom were prosecuted, and 1000 of them received jail sentences. Compare this brutality with the actions of a well-trained, and restrained Hong Kong police force against very violent and destructive rioters and agitators. When French Interior Minister Christophe Castaner announced on 08 June 2020 that the practice of strangulation of civilians during an arrest will be abandoned in France and vowed to systematically suspend officers suspected of racism, the racist French police took to the street pretesting against the Minister and singing the racist French national anthem, La Marseilles. The French Police is the world’ most racist and fascistic police force, rivalled only by Israel’s Jewish Gestapo in Palestine. The sickening irony of Emmanuel Macron – the Jews-installed French President – and his publicity stunt using the recent explosion in Beirut to interfere in Lebanon’s internal affairs on behalf of Israel. In an embarrassing display of neo-colonialism, Macron flew into Beirut intended to set up new a colonial regime.  He was shedding crocodile tears and lending his “support” to the anti-government protesters (thousands of kilometres away from Paris), after French police gassed, clubbed, injured, and maimed thousands of peaceful Yellow Vests demonstrators every weekend for more than a year.  Most of the Yellow Vest victims are coloured French citizens, characteristics of police brutality in all imperialist regimes.

Systemic racism and police violence have always been Capitalism instrument of repression and exploitation. When it comes to human rights and civil liberties, the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes are the world’s most pariah regimes. It is important to look at how the U.S. treats its own Black Americans, how Australia and Canada are treating their own Indigenous peoples. Britain, of course, sits on top of the pyramid of racism. It is the mother of all variants of racism.  Britain has sown the seeds of racism around the globe with horrendous criminal results. The policies and systemic racism of the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes are abhorrent and criminal. They are committing heinous crimes against their own citizens. The fact is being Black American in America, Indigenous Australian in Australia and First Nation in Canada is not only racially profiled; it is often a death sentence or prison. In Canada, the Canadian government have recently admitted that First Nation Canadians do not feel safe around police. “Far too many Black Canadians and indigenous people do not feel safe around police. It is unacceptable. And as governments, we have to change that,” said Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau. But, the Trudeau government “has done little to rectify the systemic injustices against Canada’s Indigenous people who have suffered decades of discrimination, dispossession and destitution” echoing the same systemic injustices and human rights abuses in Australia.

Since 2001, the Australian government – a police state by any definition – enacted more than 70 draconian “terrorism laws” targeting the Muslim community, and gave itself and its security services (including the Police) unprecedented powers, cracking-down on peaceful protests and supressing freedom of speech. Australia is one of very few countries to use COVID-19 as a pretext to enact more draconian laws and crackdown on civil liberties and legitimate anti-government protests. The proposed new anti-terrorism laws give Australian Security Police, including ASIO and AFP the power to compulsorily question Muslim Australians (including minors as young as 14 years old) “suspected of planning politically motivated violence” is much broader in scope than China’s national security law. In addition, the AFP and ASIO have been given more (cyber strategy) powers to watch Australians online activities, eavesdropping on individuals, families and businesses. The Law Council and human rights groups have warned the proposed new laws before Federal Parliament infringe on children’s fundamental rights, saying the bill is in breach of Australia’s international obligations.

Australia’s response to “security” exceeded that of the U.S., Britain and Canada, but also because “Australia’s hyper-legislation strained the ability of the parliamentary opposition and civil society to keep up, let alone provide effective opposition to, the relentless legislative output.” In fact, it is fair to say that the Australian Muslim communities are under siege and live in constant fear of the Australian Gestapo (AFP and ASIO) raiding their homes in the early hours of the morning, a form of police terror adopted from Israel’s Jewish Gestapo in Palestine. Yet Australia, despite this reality, has the arrogance and audacity to pontificate to all the rest of the world about “human rights” and “democracy”, and criticising China’s alleged abuses of human rights. Some Australian politicians – the so-called “friendship group” – have openly interfered in China’s internal affairs, lending supports to the Hong Kong violent rioters and unfairly criticising China’s restrained handlings of the violent riots.

Now, imagine for a second how the Australian government would react if Chinese politicians were unwisely showing their supports to Muslim Australians by criticising Australia’s systemic racism and advising Muslim Australians to fight police and security authorities in their campaign for justice. Would the Australian government play diplomatically and remains silent, as China is doing? No, it would not. There is more than a fair chance, to say the least, that Australia would probably impose economic sanctions on China and threaten China with war.

 

Australia: The Champion of “Human Rights”

The exclusively White Australian political and media establishments (the world’s most corrupt) are channelling their racist energy towards China and the Chinese leadership. They are blaming China for “gross human rights violation” in Hong Kong and in the Uyghurs majority-Muslim Xinjiang province, while ignoring their own egregious and systematic human rights abuses of Indigenous and Muslim Australians. As they continue demonising China for alleged “human rights” abuses, White Australian elites treat their dirty dogs better than they treat Indigenous Australians and migrants from Africa and the Middle East. Feeling of superiority and sense of engineered privilege, they do not see non-Whites as human beings with dignity. They are openly trampling on the dignity, and human rights of Indigenous and Muslim Australians.

In Australia, racism and discrimination against Indigenous and non-White Australians (Muslims in particular) are deeply entrenched, more subtle, destructive and well-managed by the White Anglo-Saxon political Establishment. The White Australian elitist class still lives with the old racist ideology of “White Australia”. Racial discriminations continue to shape the Australian political, educational and justice systems. Every Australian institution overtly practises elitist racism. The education system – led by the universities –, the justice system, the police and various state and federal authorities breathe racism. The use of racism has been fundamental to the so-called “Lucky Country”. It is the cornerstone of White privilege. Racism bring lots of benefits to White Australians, including well-paid employment, education, financial benefits, etc. For example, a Human Rights Commission report in 2018, Leading for Change, found 75.9 per cent of senior leaders were Anglo-Celtic, while 19 per cent had White European cultural backgrounds. Non-European (non-White) Australians made up 4.7 per cent of the executive-levels (C-Suite) despite representing 21 per cent of the Australian population, while 0.4 per cent were Indigenous Australians compared to 3 per cent of the population. In keeping with the racist charade of the land of the “fair go” and “multicultural” Australia, non-Anglo-Saxon Australians and newly arrived migrants make up an increasing portion of the aged care, hospitals, taxi drivers, and security guards workforce in Australia.

Here in Australia, a state of disaster has been declared in the State of Victoria on Sunday 02 August 2020 over COVID-19, sending the nation’s second-most-populous state, including Australia’s second-largest city of Melbourne back into a strict lockdown police state. The State government has imposed compulsory mask wearing outside of homes – which may actually put people at increased risk of respiratory illness – and a six-week curfew to limit the movement of people from 8pm to 5am across the entire Melbourne metro area. In addition, the police have orders to stop and question anyone caught outside their homes after 08:00 pm to enforce tough stage four Lockdown. The worst is that now police officers can enter homes with neither a warrant nor permission. And if Scott Morrison gets his wish, COVID-19 vaccinations would be mandatory for all Australians living under his tyranny.

As of writing, the total number of COVID-19 related deaths in Australia stands at 660 and rising, as warmer weather encourages more infections. In 2019, an estimated 902 Australians have died from influenza. There were no repressive measures and restrictions, such as lockdowns, “social distancing”, curfews, quarantine, isolation, travel restrictions, stay-home orders, event bans, quarantines and mandatory mask wearing in 2019. It is important to remember, these draconian measures do not apply to wealthy white Australians. The new tyranny is designed to intimidate and instil fear among ordinary world’s population. Moreover, COVID-19 is the perfect pretext to fuel racism and unfairly tarnish marginalised communities as being the cause of the current increase in COVID-19 cases. Earlier, on 04 July 2020, more than 300 Australian citizens, including families and their children in nine high-rise towers were placed into “hard Lockdown” by the State Government, meaning residents are unable to exit the building for fresh air or supplies. Many of the residents are of African descent are subject to over-policing and racial discrimination. They were supplied with outdated canned food and denied basic necessities including medications. It is now revealed that a night duty manager at the Rydges Hotel on Swanston Street, one of Melbourne’s busiest quarantine hotels was responsible for Victoria’s second wave COVID-19. According to evidence heard at an inquiry probing the failures of the state’s hotel quarantine program, about 90 per cent of Victoria’s current COVID-19 cases can be linked to a family of four who stayed at the Rydges Hotel. To cover up the State’s government failure  and further fuel racism and xenophobia, Victoria’s Premier the incompetent Daniel Andrew, his government health officials and journalists have repeatedly used the generic of “Al-Taqwa cluster” to refer to the Al-Taqwa Islamic College, despite relatively few cases appear to have been transmitted inside the College grounds. The racist label is designed to unfairly damage the College’s reputation and fuel anti- Muslim prejudice. Indeed, many people linked to this cluster are not Al-Taqwa College staff or students and will have never been near the College.

Australia’s neo-Fascist parties, “One Nation”, the Islamophobic and anti-Indigenous racist clique and convicted criminals that has bigotry and racism at its core ideology has a senior position in the Australian Parliament elected by a majority of Australian members of Parliament. The leader of “One Nation”, one of Australia’s most uneducated and racist self-promoted politicians, Pauline Hanson called marginalised Australians (people from low socio-economic backgrounds) who were forced in Lockdown in Melbourne, “drug addicts and alcoholics who do not understand what Lockdown is”. If anyone does not understand Lockdown, it is the Hanson’s clique of convicts and paedophiles. Former Australian Prime Minister the war propagandist and extremist Tony Abbott, who was “poison” to the Indigenous community and an extremely anti-Muslim bigot, was recently awarded the highest honour, a Companion of the Order of Australia (AC). It tells you how deeply entrenched racism in Australia is.

From early childhood, Australians are fed a diet of racism and prejudice, nurtured and implemented with vigour by the White Australian political and media establishments. Racism runs in the very DNA of the White elite of this country and passed down from one generation to generation. Anglo-Saxon Australian live and breathe racism. Only White Anglo-Saxon are “Australians”. Australians from non-Anglo-Saxon backgrounds are seen as “less White” than the more established Anglo-Saxon Australians and are subject to racial discrimination and referred to as “ethnic” migrants. The society is extremely backward. As racism against Asian Australians increased during COVID-19 pandemic, racist attacks by White Anglo-Saxon Australians left victims questioning what it is to be Australian. Under the Morrison’s government, Australians (especially Muslim Australians) are not allowed to have Chinese friends and not entitled to have positive views on China’s peaceful development and great achievements.

We know a lot about police violence against Black Americans, but in Australia, Indigenous Australians die silently in police custody and buried by the never-ending charade of the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody (RCIADIC). According to Professor Chris Cunneen, a criminologist at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), Australia may not be the U.S. “but in a lot of ways, it’s worse” for Indigenous Australians. Despite the Commission’s many recommendations, hundreds of Indigenous Australians have since died in police custody. One of those who died was David Dungay, a Dunghutti man who died in custody in 2015 after he was held down by prison guards while exclaiming “I can’t breathe”, let me go. “I am sick of Australians asking us what to do. People are dying in custody unnecessarily. The figures are unacceptably and frighteningly high. We should not put up with this. I do not think people really care. If the numbers were non-Aboriginal, we would have a bloody revolution in the system,” said Professor Mike Dodson, Director of the Australian National University (ANU) National Centre for Indigenous Studies in Canberra. “The root cause is this system – fantasised, mythologised, sacralised – built on systemic racism, injustice, inequity, and engineered privilege, with a profound and tacit hypocrisy that even its purveyors couldn’t comprehend.  Our foundation was laid on footings of genocide, slavery and empowered oligarchy and the nation so based and created evolved exactly as it had to do”, writes author and film-maker Paul Edward.

The White Australian government’s policy – a Kafkaesque policy of oppression – of removing Indigenous children from family, culture and country into the government-sponsored “childcare”, designed to exacerbate the disadvantage of Indigenous youth and streams them into very direct line from “child protection” into youth detention and into prison incarceration, according to a recent report (Family is Culture) by Professor Megan Davis of the University of NSW Law School  and a United Nations expert on the rights of Indigenous peoples. Indeed, not long ago, the local juvenile prisons sat just next door to the local schools. The systemic racism is designed to deny Indigenous Australians (with “criminal” records) descent employment and subject them to ongoing police harassments. It is a mirror image of the U.S. where generational poverty, segregation, unequal race-based policing tactics, mass incarceration of youth, the school-to-prison pipeline continue to cause immense suffering in Black communities across the U.S. Research by Research by, Thalia Anthony, an Associate Professor in Law at UTS shows that Indigenous Australians are the most imprisoned people in the world. “So, Indigenous Australians were imprisoned at higher rates than Indigenous people in the U.S. in 2010, in Canada in 2010-11, in New Zealand in 2015, and [more] than African Americans in 2015”, according to Anthony.

The age a child can be held criminally responsible in Australia is 10 years — one of the lowest in the world and in breach of international human rights law. (See also Warwick Jones, New Matilda, 28/06/2020). Australia does not have a bill of right. Although it is a signatory to the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights it does not create individual rights that are enforceable. In addition, Indigenous Australians remain unrecognised in the Australian Constitution. “It is one of the very few constitutions in the world today with negative race powers allowing the government to make laws and policy that pointedly trample the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people”, said Jeffrey J. McMullen, a well-known Australian journalist and author. Australia’s record on race relations is discriminatory and racist.

When it comes to justice, the Australian justice system is inherently racist and unjust towards Indigenous and non-Anglo-Saxon Australians. For example, in the past 10 years the number of Indigenous Australians charged by police in the State of NSW alone has increased by more than 67 per cent. The State capital, Sydney is one of the world’s most racist and corrupt cities with a militarised police force that is always on the look for a fight. For non-Indigenous Australians the increase has been just 8 per cent, according to new figures from the Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOCSAR). Indigenous Australians in NSW estimated to be 3.33 per cent of NSW total population (8.092 million). Figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) on Thursday also showed Indigenous people in NSW were imprisoned at a rate of more than 10 times the general population. In fact, Indigenous Australians are the most incarcerated people on the planet. More than one in 40 Indigenous Australians are in prison, compared to just one in 450 Australians. Nearly one in 20 Indigenous men are in prison. And that number is only climbing. The gap is even worse for children. An Aboriginal child is 26 times more likely to be incarcerated than their non-Indigenous peers. According to a recent study (Youth Justice in Australia 2018–19) by  the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) in Canberra, over two thirds of children under 14 who were behind bars in Australia were Indigenous, and 80 per cent of 10-year-olds behind bars were Indigenous, making the 10-year-old Indigenous children closer to 100 times more likely to be imprisoned than an average 10-year-old. A recent study by the ANU in Canberra released in June 2020 found three quarters of Australians have an unconscious bias against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. And there is no reason to believe police, prosecutors, or magistrates are immune.

When it comes to racism and treatment of Indigenous and Muslim Australians, other states and territories are not better, if not much worse than NSW. Indeed, Western Australia, Queensland and Northern Territory espouse a Nazi-like “laws” towards Indigenous and Muslim Australians. There, the “justice” system is completely corrupt, and the racist police are a “law” into themselves. They act as judge, jury and executioner. If you want to know about Australian systemic police racism and police brutality, just ask ordinary Indigenous and Muslim Australians about their experience. And we all know Australia’s Nazi-like treatments of refugees and people fleeing U.S.-led wars of aggression.

Australia imprisoned (in appalling strict lockdown conditions) thousands of Muslim refugees in Nazi-like concentration camps on the offshore islands of Nauru and Manus Islands in the Pacific, where a potential COVID-19 outbreaks are imminent. Meanwhile, White Europeans are encouraged and helped to stay in Australia. In addition to mass influx of backpackers and “over stayers” from Britain, North America and parts of Europe, tens of thousands of unskilled “migrants” from India, South America and China flocked to Australia’s over-crowded cities at record rates taking Australian jobs, suppressing wages and pushing rental properties up at the expense of Australian workers and marginalised Australians. They are used by politicians (including the Prime Minister), the racist media (including the government’s mouthpiece, the ABC), and dishonest businesses to scapegoat and denigrate unemployed and low-income Australians. These new unskilled arrivals are prepared to work and live under unfavourable conditions. They are doing “jobs that are rife with abuse, wage theft, that people are put in unsafe situations and not paid the kind of wages that Australians expect and don’t have the conditions Australians expect”, Australian Unemployed Workers Union spokeswoman Kristen O’Connell said. “If [businesses] actually started paying [Australians] decent wages, there’s a willing [local] workforce already out there in rural and remote Australia,” Australian Workers Union national secretary Daniel Walton said. The Farmers Union and the Farmers Lobby have always promoted and defended the use of cheap labour at the expense of Australians. Many of these newly arrived unskilled White backpackers, Indian and Chinese “migrants” are among the most racist arrivals in Australia today. Australia is their paradise and they brought nothing with them but their racist paraphernalia and greed. They sound like preprogramed against Indigenous and Muslim Australians.

Australia is hiding behind a fabricated false image (a façade) promoted and enforced by the racist White Australian political and media establishments. What lies beneath this image is a darker history of denial, systemic racism and racial discrimination against anyone who does not look “white” enough to be “Australian”. In fact, “White Australia” acknowledges and even celebrates the brutality of its convict past, including the genocide of its Indigenous people and the destruction of Indigenous cultural heritage by mining corporations that pillaged and ravaged Indigenous land. James Cook, the savage British invader is revered for his savagery by most White Australians. Cook’s (and other colonialists) statues are glorified around the country because of the links between colonialism and racism in White Australia’s mythology.

Indigenous Australians have no right to say no because they have little or no support among mainstream White Australians and the corrupted minority of “Middle class” of Indigenous Australians. Sadly, Australians remain the most authority-obedient and ignorant people. Just after the las election, the Morrison’s government warned Australians to keep “quiet” and “distance”, or else. Morrison’s closest “allies” are the most racist anti-Muslim neo-Fascist regimes in the world, including India’s Modi, Israel’s Netanyahu, Austria’s Kurtz and of course Trump.

Australia’s anti-China interference in China’s diplomatic relations with the South Pacific nations, and its support of U.S. calls for Taiwan to be admitted to the WHO as an observer, which would undermine China’s unitary claims to the territory have rightly angered China and the Chinese people. No other country, with the exception of the Trump’s regime, has attacked and demonised China more than the Australian “National-Liberal” regime. It is the most belligerent in its anti-China racism. It is embarrassing to be an Australian these days. China has accurately called Australia a “Kangaroo” acting as an “attack dog” of the U.S. regime.  To save face, the Morrison’s government has now swung in behind a pre-existing and impartial EU proposal to have the WHO organise its own inquiry with no reference to China. For more on this, see the operative clauses of the World Health Assembly resolution on COVID-19.

COVID-19 exposes how ill-equipped Australia’s healthcare system to eliminate or even manage the spread of the Virus. Importantly, it exposes the criminal flaws in the aged care sectors. Despite low infections and deaths, Australia’s capacity to respond to COVID19 outbreak remains dismal. Many of Australia’s hospitals appear to be underprepared for dealing with medium casualty incidents particularly one involving an infectious disease like COVID-19.  A recent Australian survey found 20 per cent of doctors and nurses in public and private hospitals have limited or no access to personal protective equipment, including surgical masks “in an unsafe working environment”. Some obscure academics have unwisely called on the government to enforce mandatory COVID19 vaccination.

The Australian government adventurism against China is part of the relentless anti-Chinese campaign on behalf of the U.S. rather than a valiant act of heroism. The Morrison government disingenuous and zealous push – along with the Trump’s regime – for “independent” investigation (a witch-hunt) into the origins of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) was an exercise in futility. Australia was not interested in an independent investigation; it was more interested in a vicious campaign to demonise China. Australia along with the U.S. have failed dismally to demonise China. In particular, the Morrison’s government shoot itself in the foot on behalf of the Trump’s regime. Despite its economy’s reliance on China, the Australian government has shown an impressive display of recklessness in enthusiastically adopting not only the Trump’s regime aggressive and hostile policy towards China, but also unwisely backing the Modi’s fascist regime in India’s provocative border “dispute” with China.

 

China: Australia’s Economic Lifeline

Always punching above its weight and exaggerating its political importance, Australia has shown an unedifying obsequiousness to Washington’s hostility towards China by joining the U.S.-led anti-China campaign. We know that Australia lacks having its own foreign policy and blindly following U.S. orders. The Australian government cynicism is as glaring as it is audacious, and China is not forgiving Australia.

While the Australian government was “dancing to the tune” of Washington, Beijing hit back with economic measures with dire consequences for the Australian economy. Following its ban on supplies of Australian beef to China, China announced it was slapping 80 per cent tariffs (“countervailing duty”) on the exports of Australian barley, effectively shutting off China as a market. The tensions between Canberra and Beijing could spill over into bigger exports such as iron ore, coal and liquefied natural gas. In fact, Chinese authorities have begun directing state-owned power plants not to buy new cargoes of Australian thermal coal and to purchase domestic product instead. Of course, China has no problem finding new suppliers of agricultural goods and mining products from Argentina, Brazil, Canada, New Zealand, Russia, and even the U.S.

China (not the U.S.) is Australia’s biggest trading partner. Australia’s two-way trade with China represents 26 per cent of Australia’s total trade with the world. Last financial year, it was worth $235 billion, nearly equalled the combined value of Australia’s two-way trade with Japan ($88.5 billion), the United States ($76.4 billion), South Korea ($41.4 billion) and Singapore ($32.7 billion). It is the world’s most China-dependent economy.  It was China that saved Australia from recession during the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) between 2007 and early 2009. Toda’s Australia is even more reliant on China than it was back then. Australia’s economy depends largely on the sale of agricultural goods and mining products to China. Australia sent $63 billion worth of iron ore to China in 2018-19, $17 billion of natural gas and $14 billion of coal. Of agricultural goods, beef is our biggest export to China, earning $9.5 billion, followed by non-beef meat ($5.2 billion), wool ($3.8 billion) and wheat ($3.7 billion). In addition, Chinese tourists and Chinese students contributing billions of dollars to the Australian economy. Moreover, “Australia imports from and depends on China for 595 different goods ranging from blue-point pens to pharmaceutical products to even garlic, according to a report, Breaking the China Chain, published by the right-wing British think-tank, the Henry Jackson Society. The report shows that Australia dependent on China, with 27.6 per cent of its total imports, 167 items deemed “critical”, mostly health supplies.

Finally, anti-China sentiment is a coordinated effort by the Australian government and the Anglo-Zionist media to manipulate and restrict what the public sees and hears about China in order to gain favour with the U.S. regime. Australia obsequious to the U.S. as “Our robust U.S. alliance” is a one-way street. The U.S. has no “allies”, only obedient vassals. U.S. message to its vassals is that everyone should know: “Do what we say or else”. In case of Australia, the U.S. regime allows Australia to play the “Deputy Sheriff” in the Pacific. For the U.S., Australia is nothing more than an imperialist propaganda outpost projecting racist colonialist values and serving U.S. devious imperialism. Just like it did in all U.S. wars of aggression, on 28 July 2020, the Australian government scrambled to satisfy the demands of the Trump’s regime to fully commit to the aggressive U.S. military, diplomatic and economic confrontation with China.

On its part, China is cleverly and patiently avoiding being goaded by the new war of aggression started by the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes into similar retaliatory action. China does not want world’s dominations; its aim is to break U.S. mentality of hegemony and free poorer nations from the U.S.-imposed slavery that has been going on for too long. The idea that China is a “threat” is baseless. China has not threatened to attack or sanctioned any nation. It is the U.S. that threatened China and has deployed massive military presence at China’s doorsteps. In Addition to more than 400 U.S. military bases encircling China with missiles, bombers, and nuclear bombs, there are currently three U.S. aircraft carriers strike groups prowling the seas around China.

It does not bode well for the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes credibility in scapegoating China to cover up their own inability to control COVID-19 infection. The demonization of China is a very, very big mistake. The great nation of China, with her philosophy of endless innovation – undeterred by the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes sickening hypocrisy and threat – would continue forging ahead unstoppably with her mammoth technological and “socioeconomic development plan of the 21st Century, China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), connecting and bridging the world with infrastructure via land and maritime transport networks, with joint research and industrial projects, cultural exchanges – and not least, multinational trade with “win-win” characteristics, equality for all partners – towards a multi-polar world, towards a world with a common future for mankind.” A staggering 138 countries have joined China’s BRI.

The U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes must stop pursuing its counterproductive efforts to demonise and undermine China. Instead of making unsubstantiated accusations and demonising China, the U.S.-led Anglo-Saxon regimes should join forces with the rest of the world and focus on dealing with the current threat posed by COVID-19, not China, by following the path of progress, national sovereignty and international cooperation offered by China.
