Vložit

- The Biden administration is turning up the heat against China yet again, as news leaks that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is traveling to Taiwan in August-another in a series of majorly escalatory acts.
Brian is joined by Dr. Ken Hammond, professor of East Asian and Global History at New Mexico State University, founding director of the Confucius Institute at New Mexico State University, and activist with Pivot to Peace.

Hello, 1st. I want to say Thank You! I really appreciate You Guys, Your Hard Work, Reporting and Information. I was hoping and wondering if You Guys could look into and Report Your findings on something I've been coming across lately. It's about China. I keep seeing and reading that China is using the same Old Tactics as the United States uses when comes to Their involvement in the World's underdeveloped Countries. What I came across are some of the outcomes from China's use of these same Tatics in its Belt and Road Project and its Investment in these Countries. Here are some of the Things I saw that China has accumulated in these Countries from Their use of these Tactics each one is from a different Country. An Air Port, Shipping Port, Naval Base, National Electric Grid, Mass amounts of Land and a Heavy Percentage of a Country's Tax Revenue. That is just a Few that I remember. If You Guys could Please do a Video on any of the Reporting and Information You have on this Topic it would Greatly be Appreciated!!!
Has Pelosi evolved into a vile creature of narcissism at its worst? Nancy Pelosi is absolutely delighted with the press she's receiving about her planned visit to Taiwan. But look at what lurks behind her gentle demenure. Astutely looking, we might see one of the ugliest narcissists ever to occupy Capitol Hill, caring about nothing or no one other than promoting herself, even to the point of elbowing children out of her photoshoots. This narcissist creature has totally hoodwinked her dumbed-down supporters. Behind the masks, we find a pathetic and wretched old woman seriously in need of rehabilitation, if this isn't possible, then, for the sake of peace and stability in our world, she seriously needs to be confined to a mental institution. My book FROM BABYLON TO HERE uncovers how previous narcissist women of such ilk, Isis for example, promoting herself above all others, have caused serious wars, pain and suffering to humanity. The world needs to be attentive not to allow it happen again.
' UNITED FOR WAR - Pompeo Joining in TAIWAN '
As someone living in Asia, I am truly disgusted by Amercian provocation.
China should go into Texas, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Guam to convince Texans and those other places to fight the United Snakes for independence! Give the troublemaking United Snakes a taste of its own medicine!
Agree. The US is also using the Australian government as a puppet against the best interests of it's people and threatening regional harmony.
@@chasseausanglier3390 THE ONLY GOOD AMERICAN SOLDIER IS ......

moie man you must be blind.
Blinkin makes me want to vomit 🤢
Anthony Blinken preaching to the Chinese foreign ministers:
“An alternative to the ‘rule based order (aka US dictatorship), is a world in which might makes right, and winners take all, that would be a far more violent and unstable world for all of us.”
A classic case of self projection.
The USA whinging about the oppression of a sovereign island is also just projection (Hawai'i)
Ahhh the cheek of blin*ken🤢
Add Mearsheimer, Pompeo, they're the same imperialists mindset, that's what they've learned at Westpoint military Academy
These tools are practically reincarnations of Goebells, they know exactly what they’re doing
Its amazing that they can say shit like this with a straight face.
At 82, Pelosi should stay at home and focus on her insider trading instead of trying to start WWIII.
All the freely flat printed $$ will be hell note when she is gone
She already front-run those stocks based on insider trading. She needs to go to Taiwan to create an "event" that will ensure those stocks she and her husband bought will shoot up through the roof once the shooting starts.
I am Chinese and I am grateful for both of you. Thank you.
for what????
你太卑微了。中国不是乌克兰，中国有的是本事和能力，并不需要因为老外说两句好话就感恩戴德。命运掌握在自己手里。真理在大炮射程之内。

The American white man forgot the Korea War even they have SEA-AIR-LAND militaries but could not even walk pass 38th parallel fighting against the Chinese.
China is Afghanistan+Iraq+Syria+Libya+Vietnam all together and then some.
他们（美国）会与地球上拥有五分之一的人口国家作战，不用核武器情况下会来一场百年战争子孙世代的千年争斗，动用核武器大家就一起下地狱直到这颗星球上最后一个人类绝望而死
Even if it was like Afghanistan why must the west always be so agressive can't we just work together and make it a better world for ALL people?
China should declare the airspace over Taiwan close when she's going 👈👈🤔🤔✅💯
taiwan has its own air force that is constantly intercepting chinese incursions into their airspace

How to identify a bully?
Provocateur keeps poking at the bullied, bullied fights back.
Provocateur says to people in the room “See, see! I told you!”.
The sad part about that is so many people still believe the provocateur.
idk man, threatening a country with war if they dare declare independence, even though they are already de-facto an independent country, seems way more provocative than a diplomatic visit
@@shway1 I know like threatening China with nuclear weapons if they take back Taiwan in the 50's... What planet are you from America? America doesn't do this because they care about Chinese people in Taiwan or Muslim Chinese in Xinjiang, they do this for strategic reasons! The belief that America cares about democracy or freedom is a delusional one! ( You've gotta be a complete nut case if you think the west cares about the rest of the world)
Ukraine is a very good example for Taiwan, but many Taiwanese don’t see that!
@@shway1
Taiwan is NOT a de-facto ‘independent’ country, stop spreading fake information.
Sure, Taiwan separatist party DPP can declare independence any time, but NOT under the ROC Constitution which also deem only ONE CHINA policy.
Taiwan representative Ms. Tsai took under oath of ROC Constitution, so if she and her party DPP declares independence, it is no question an act of treason, China can legally arrest her and her colluders as political criminals.
Taiwan has always been China’s territory for centuries, except when Japan invaded China, stole and colonized Taiwan for 50 years, but Japanese colonized Taiwan ended when Japan
surrendered after WWII and officially returned back to China.
Why can't America just leave everyone alone? World villain.
The US empire is declining so it will go to any length to drag the whole down with them.
Because they wanted to own everyone
why is this guy saying that china having control over taiwan as part of their system is "the way things ought to be" they are currently not that way, so why is he propagating an imperialist mentality?
@@shway1 err ... Taiwan is part of China. As it is the civil war in China has not ceased. Taiwan was annexed when the retreating KMT retreated to Taiwan ...
@@wf645 no, china claims taiwan, and officially taiwan claims the entirety of china (although they've been downplaying that and only maintaining the status quo as to not officially declare independence which would anger china). none of what you said makes taiwan part of china, and taiwan is de-facto an independent country with its own military, currency, political system, legal system, etc. the KMT is not in power and reunification is unpopular. also it seems like you don't know that the word "annexed" means

@@nanjiang1953 No it was USSR and China who took the brunt ! all the USA did was come in late and take the glory ....
Blinken's statement was a classic example of projectionism.
It's called, Lying To Its people & hypocrisy.
I am reading "The Peoples History of the United States" by Howard Zinn and I have just finished reading "The Untold History of the United States" by Oliver Stone and Peter Kuzniack . These two books provide a very detailed American behavoir from its inception up to now. Can it change? Its very worrying. US has to give up its aggression.
You are right! It's worrying and US should work with China in so many ways for the good of this world.
Russia, China, India, European countries, Britain, countries of Middle East, Israel and many more - all of those are agressive. Changing just US won't be enough.
Usa, will lose too aggressive?
@@Almoniification Hi Alm, I am not sure you have understood where I am coming from. They say to understand your future, you have to understand history. When we talk of colonizers, we are talking generally of Europeans and they have carried colonialism through Neocolonialism. China's century of humiliation ended with the 1949 Revolution. They are trying to retain that revolution but America as a colonial cannot accept that, and is trying to roll back that achievement by copting some partners, like India Taiwan, Japan and Israel among those old NATO. It's partners like Britain are just vassals and real decision maker in violence is the US.
I guess it's impossible. US is essentially a crusader state on a foreign continent.
People don't like to hear the truth. This video should have millions of views.
Or more like they can't.
Mental blockage is a thing.
In France kids today are exposed to woke propaganda starting from elementary school.
Imagine the low IQ turds we'll have in a decade
I would not rule out Chinese fighter jets intercepting Nancy's plane, though they may not shoot it down.
Don’t draw to a conclusion. Put “accidents” into account🫣.
Last time, they were hunting for her in Washington D.C. by those country folks who thought Trump got cheated, remember ?
Because of the STUPIDITY of the administration, the crew of the aircraft flying Pelosi to Taiwan are being sent on a suicide mission!
They should refuse this job!
@@kko-punch7059 I think most Americans don't know that August 1st is the PLA's Army Day, including Pelosi. If she chooses August 1st to go to Taiwan, the world will change in history.

Thx Brian and Dr. Hammond for shedding light on this with such clarity
Thank you for this fantastic discussion with truths. Too bad too many Americans don't see this in real time.
They only see it in movie form, that's what reality is for Americans.
They are MSM sheep
I agree and I see good democrats believing that Russia is the monster and everybody else that is picked by the US media.
It seems like America is during its culture revolution time like China in 1960s.
@@wavelength7503 I can't even enjoy movies like top gun because I know the truth of this murderous hegemonic regime.
Fortunately for this world, USA´s hegemony is gone. USA can only loose not just in Ukraine, but also in Taiwan.

@TheDrewSaga Not people in Donetsk and Luhansk
Many people in Taiwan feel it's better to be Chinese than being a third class pariah in your own home under colonial rule
U S A. Lost their way to do business
@TheDrewSaga well usa is responsible for the mess in ukraine once again. not only with 2014, but half ukraine was never part of their nationalities. during soviet union it did not mattered which country administers which parts, but usa did not wanted that russia gets these parts back 1990.
We Chinese can always give her a sight to behold if she shows up.
It's going to be usa clashing with China in a war if Pelosi does something s2pid
You guys won't do sh*t except b*tch and moan. Get used to Taiwan / the ROC being here to stay as it is. Don't kid yourselves.
We'll collectively moon her until she turns back 😂😂😂
@@AZ-rg3rf I like that
Thank you for the excellent insight and information Dr. Hammond. Hope to hear more from Dr. Hammond, please keep exposing their Malicious agenda on using China's Taiwan Island against China.
She can take off. But she’ll never land in Taiwan.
Accidents happen
China only needs to spend on domestic military while the US spends on its circa 800 worldwide military bases at the expense of all else. This is why China has sterling healthcare, education, and a raft of other services
The thing is that when the US spends a dollar on those bases they get more than a dollar back. Better to just kick them out!
@@L98fiero Yep, that’s the MIC all over - and it sux. The sooner the US declines, the more we’ll see World Peace ✌🏻
@@L98fiero The problem is that those dollars the US takes don't go back to the government but gets distributed to all those corporate weapons makers & military contractors. The American people gets screwed either way.
@@JD-yz4kr I was referring to the money spent on site and in the surrounding businesses, not the arms though that too is an issue. Leases and other payments are made in USD and _any_ trade in USD makes money for the US government, that's a large part of what funds the US military. Read Michael Hudson's book, Super Imperialism, there are older versions online where he explains the process.
@@L98fiero Not only that, but international trade in USD is what keeps dollar stable. US is basically exporting inflation and economical instability with its currency.
Dr. Hammond is incredibly knowledgeable in his field of study.
Great interview by both the host and guest. 👍👍👍
Aye.
He's full of knowledge.
I just don't know understand why can't the US get along with China.
I remember the US has turned down China bullet trains.
@@condorX2
Because US wants to be the only power in the world who can dictate the world, US gets to control everyone else, US would have full freedom to commit crimes of invading and looting countries and no one can hold US accountable and pay for its crime.
US has committed so much war crimes against humanity, it’s probably afraid the karma of these crimes would come back to bite its arse some day when its power faded.
Its power comes from USD and military hegemony, that sustain its economy, technologies and big corporation dominance.
Any country challenges US dictatorship hegemony, deemed US enemies, or US threat, or rivals.
First step of war US launches on its projected rivals/threat/enemies is to deploy Propaganda War by deploying all US MSM to start demonizing villainizing its projected rivals/threat/enemies.
US will never ‘get along’ with anyone who challenge its ‘freedom’ to abuse its power
@@lavendereucalyptus3225 😊👍
what Dr. Hammond or most people overlooked is Japan intentionally left 200'000 Japanese behind when they returned Taiwan to China in 1945. there are at least 2'000'000+ Taiwanese of Japanese descent in Taiwan. they're big part of the ruling party and pro-independence movement. most of them adopted Chinese family names.
@@willengel2458 the current president is a jippon.
I don't think Pelosi will be missed by Americans if she's "gone" while steping Chinese red line..a lot of conservatives in other channel say they will cheer and partying 🍺 if that happen..😅😅😅 I bet socialists people will too..
She is well known for her sinister remark " a beautiful sight to behold" when Hong Kong was ravaged by rioters.
I hope she takes Sleepy Joe and Kamala with her.
A few months back, Pelosi cancelled her flight to Taiwan, because she was "Covid-19" positive.
This time round in Aug 2022, Pelosi might cancel her flight to Taiwan again, because she's got "long Covid" and all the repercussions of Covid-19, such as "disturbed Central Nerve system," "cognizance difficultly," "short breath," arrhythmia," and so on.

China and Russia needs to practice freedom of navigation near Cuba and Hawaii....
Each week of "Freedom of navigation" cruise of the US consumes about 3 million litres of diesel fuel. Each liter of diesel emits about 2.6 kilograms of carbon dioxide. 3 weeks of that "Freedom of Navigation" stunt of the US added 24,000 kilotons of carbon dioxide to the earth's atmosphere.
@@JD-yz4kr
The US does not care about global warming or the costs to their tax paying citizens. Everything you hear out of their politicians mouths about those two topics is B S. Yet they'll blame other countries for violating human rights and pollution. It's all about projection of their own faults onto others.
Sooner or later
The Chinese government has concluded that the US is playing a sausage-slicing game on the One-China policy, and that the US is acting in direct contradiction to its diplomatic rhetoric. Wish these politicians don't cut their fingers.
'Salami tactics' as in your 'sausage-slicing game'.
Instead of their fingers, they cut your shiit.
By far the most honest, unbiased discussion on China and Taiwan. Sad this information is not allowed to spread in the main media.
The MSM is just a propaganda arm of the US government
Why and how not allowed?
@Hi Fun
What western media ACKNOWLEDGE that Taiwan IS A PART OF CHINA`?
So according to the UN charter the Taiwan issue is an INTERNAL CHINESE ISSUE.
So meddling in this like arming, supporting separatism and acting as if Taiwan is sovereign IS A BREACH OF THE UN CHARTER.
These are FACTS that is not allowed in western media, if it was the critique in the USA against this Pelosi trip would be immense.
Visiting a souverain country is not a provocation. Wanting individuals to prohibit from visiting countries is the problem.
@CEO Of Loneliness Inc.
_"Visiting a souverain country is not a provocation. "_
That of course TOTALLY depends on the reason for the visit AND the circumstances.
First, there is ONLY ONE CHINA, EVERYBODY AGREES ON THAT also the USA.
That country is ruled by the CCP in Beijing EVERY AGREES ON THAT, even the USA.
Taiwan is a part of China, EVERYBODY AGREES ON THAT, even the USA.
So in this case the government of China, WHO DO HAVE JURISDICTION OVER TAIWAN tells Pelosi not to come.
So for Pelosi to go to Taiwan would be a provocation.
The REASON China oppose this visit is that Foreign policy IS THE MANDATE OF THE US ADMINISTRATION, this means this trip has to be sanctioned by the White House.
This means it is an official DIPLOMATIC meeting with the separatist (current) Taiwanese government by the USA.
This means USA is violating the one China policy THEY CLAIM THEY RESPECT.
There is A LOT at risk with this visit, TOTALLY UN NECESSARY.
There is NOTHING TO GAIN
UNLESS
The goal is to stir up trouble and increase tensions.
Why would you want that??
Only plausible reason I can see is the Democrats wants a conflict with the Chinese to try to deflect from problems at home, get some kind of "Rallying around the flag" and try to save the mid term elections.
Not a good enough reason to risk WW3
Footnote
IF Pelosi went as a private person, different matter BUT SHE IS NOT and she is 3rd in line for the Presidency.
Foreign policy IS NOT HER JOB, that is the White House, actually if the White House are not behind this SHE IS BREAKING US LAW.
Lots of people are hindered visiting countries...
That is what VISA's are...
How would the US administration feel if China started talking up, Say Puerto Rican Independance. Started giving military and diplomatic support to Puerto Rico.? Or maybe started NGO's in Hawaii. Starting to push for Hawiian independance?
good idea.
As a Chinese, I don't want to see Chinese killing Chinese. However, if Taiwan keeps this up, we Chinese should reclaim Taiwan by force with complete disregard for the loss of life in Taiwan!
Use all means necessary!
Totally agree with you. But majority of Taiwan are brainwashed by USA. A great move would be China not going to war with Taiwan, but to go war with the USA directly. I would do that if I was Xi
@@Humax918 the time for that war is coming!
Zhao Lijian is still very officious and restrained. But the semi official China media's reaction to her proposed trip is quite off the chart and close to bellicose. The title to this video is so apt: USA is playing with fire ... literally

Most Americans are also unaware that CCP was once a party under ROC.
And that a huge piece of the KMT joined the cpc during the revolution and they are still on the mainland.
@@antonionegron3230 The US and China should work together, and make more benefit for people to both sides.
First, the US should persuade the ROC and PRC to negotiate peaceful reunification of China. Second, America should persuade Japan to return the Diaoyu Islands to Chinese administration. If the United States achieves this Chinese wish, China will certainly be willing to cooperate with the US better, both economically and militarily. Both sides will spend money for their own people, not a military confrontation.

@@shway1 The willing of 1.4 billion people will not be swayed by those Chinese traitors. They did not want unification so they continued the civil war with the mainland.

They have done nothing in the interest of the whole Chinese civilization. To me, they deserve to die.
Thank you to both of you gentlemen for highlighting the danger America is putting the world into, like what you said enough is enough no more wars and I think America with a history of 250 years has fought 200 over wars, with the amount of money spent on war it can help the world to live happily and peacefully, the world needs more people like both of you to make this a reality.
Anthony Blinken and company thought they set the trap for the Chinese delegation. he didn't expect Tiger Yang turned the table on him and took a verbal beating he won't likely forget anytime soon.

ive only watched the first few mins and this is not starting off well. the US position is more ambiguous than he describes, and "the way things ought to be"? really? they're already de facto an independent country with their own military, currency, legal and political system. taiwan ranks higher than the US on press freedom and democracy. in 1991, 17% identified as taiwanese only and not chinese, in 2016 it was 58%. the figure jumps to 68% if you remove the option to choose "both". also the left leans much more towards declaring independence than the right. you're siding with the conservatives, nationalists, and imperialist mentality.

Dr Hammond is most knowledgeable and what he had commented is most objective and spot on.
So, let me summarize this: US most high tech sub got hit - not by another high tech sub, but by a bloody container. Took them days to figure it out 🤦♀️; then you have people in Pentagon resigning bc they can't stand that CN's (military) technology (AI) has become more advanced than US; suicide rate of military personnel & veterans keeps increasing; US couldn't even win from men in slippers in Afghanistan; during Vietnam War US couldn't locate the enemies with their rich advanced equipment; during Korean War when CN was most poor & vulnerable US couldn't take CN in...
BUT US THINK THEY WIN AGAINST CN?!

there is no better way if military industrial complex has the highest power to make decision.
when the Russian and Chinese leaders say something formal, they are not bluffing and/or joking.
Her final destination.
The world will see America for what it is one day!!!!!
Wow if only they air this in mainstream media.
Very good analysis
Leaders of China have gone through many elections, based on meritocracy, before they reach their present positions. The governing party consists of individuals whose responsibility is to do real work for the people, not for party politics. There's no political fight in front of the people. You are measured by your performance, not oratory skill. And, if you don't abide by the party's principle of putting the people first and do real work for the people and show actual results, you are fired. People's interests are represented in the govt by individuals elected from all professions and all minority groups, over 2,000 of them, called deputies. Each year, for 10 days, they gather to present their grievances and recommendations to discuss how to improve. What do these so-called democratic countries do for their ordinary people except shifting blame?
@TheDrewSaga What I see in the US is a bunch of politicians playing politics with low standard of moral. They succeed because of people like you🤪😁
@TheDrewSaga Low standard of moral by the politicians and MSM has built a society of low moral. The society then elect politicians with low moral cos it's entrenched in their psyche. You fall into this category.
@TheDrewSaga Your definition of meritocracy is having a govt coercing and robbing other countries for the benefits of the US elites? How about trying to work for the people instead of working for the elites? Stop your govt from playing a zero-sum game to maintain your hegemony; instead, try cooperate to increase the size of the pie so everybody can benefit...yes, the ordinary people.
@TheDrewSaga You talk like I'm a stranger to the US😂😂 To me, your superiority complex is a joke🤪😁
The day you demand your politicians to perform their duties to work for the people instead of shifting blame on other countries, you may begin to get some worthwhile politicians in power to work for you! Start with your MSM first. Independent? Another joke...a source of all evil!
AWESOME n insightful talk Thanks for your bravery n knowledge

Thank you gentlemen! I cannot believe that there still such respectful people in the US towards China in all sense, especially among White Americans. My deepest respect to you gentlemen and your work is so enlightening and truthful too. Thank you.
The US did the same thing in Ukraine and that has ended up in a war. If you want to burn down the forest you start many small fires. Ukraine, Iran & Taiwan appear to be good candidates
Only that Iran and China is neither Iraq or Ukraine! Totally different players here..
China is progressing faster than many countries is a good thing that we should appreciate and learn. Unfortunately some countries are jealous and started anti China to destroy them. China works very hard to keep world peace and stability. They also help many poor countries to improve their economy and developments.

Great show Brian. Thanks to both of you! Extremely informative. I'm learning a lot.
Seldom does one hear a discussion based on historical facts. Please continue your contribution to the correct understanding state of the world affairs. Thank you. 👍🙏
Excellent discussion but @Brian, you need to note another fact: the Chinese worker may be only about 20% of his US counterpart (I read somewhere that China's per capita GDP is $13,000), China's COST OF LIVING is way, way lower than his US counterpart especially in essential items.
So, overall, the Chinese standard of living is actually higher and much fairer to all its people. Just look at the streets, metro systems, crime rates of US and Chinese cities and compare for yourself.
It pisses me off. They have lived long lives with wealth and it’s almost like they don’t care if the world goes on because we are almost out of here anyway.
Did Mexico pay for the wall yet? 🤣😂🤣😂
Americans are heading south for better lives . . . Mexico will build the wall and demand that America pays 🤣
Per capita income in dollars reflects little of living standard, like PPP vs GDP. Those in China who makes 17.9% US income pay less than 17.9 percent in food and rent, the poor also receive social security in child education and medical. And they don't have a deal with racism, shootings, looting, strikes, hunger, double digit inflation and they don't live in tents or under the bridge. But when you compare the rich, China has more rich people than the US too. Home Prices in Beijing and Shanghai are higher than NYC and LA. A standard 1200 sq. ft. bedroom costs 1.5 million dollars, second hand. China tops the US in several categories of imported consumer luxury goods-German cars, French Italian fashion, Swiss watches. Covid stopped the 100+ million Chinese overseas tourists and they are crowding domestic destinations by means of planes, trains, and SUVs. From Shanghai to Xinjiang is an 8 hour flight, feels like overseas vacation, it has 100+ million visitors too.
Using GDP/PPP alone can also be misleading to measure wealth and prosperity of a country because it doesn't take into account other factors since GDP strictly refers to the revenue collected by the 'state' a.k.a. the government. I've watched a video of a small Chinese city that looks much more developed and richer than a supposed 'equivalent' city in my country here, despite the latter having higher GRP and only 1/6 the population of the former.
We need to continue promoting the truth about China and the reasons behind US aggression. The MSM are increasingly being used as government propaganda multipliers. If the US wants to exert international influence it should be through co=operation and genuine competition not through destructive, military, economic and political attacks.
CHINA HAS MORE HUNGRY THAN THE POPULATION OF AMERICA....AND ONLY MAKE 1.18 A HOUR FOR THE AVERAGE WORKER..
THE BILLIONAIRES ARE ONLY FROM STEALING WAGES AND BLOWING IT IN CASINOS..
@@markjapan4062 Where did you get those statistics? The US state Dept? May have been true 3 decades ago but not now.
like it or not, China is now transitioning to the nbr.1 spot....and nothing can stop that...
Why would the speaker of the house go to ANY country? Would that be the job of the Sec of State?

Excellent interview - very informative and insightful. Enjoyed listening to the thoughtful discussion and learned a lot about China’s history.
brilliant discussion. Thank you
I can only imagine if Russia or Mexico started to sell weapons to Puerto Rico and 'recognize' the government of Puerto Rico as a sovereign nation-state, also recognized by the UN
If the Puerto Rican people wanted to be their own nation and the US was threatening them with invasion, Russia and Mexico would be pretty justified in sending them weapons and recognizing them as a sovereign state. But they don’t, and the US isn’t, so these situation aren’t comparable.
Only 17.9% of the American per capita income, but people in China, are happier.......why is that..?
By what metric are Chinese people happier?
@@michael2113 telling you now from the Chinese people. Go back to your msm
Thank you for such a great episode.
Thank you for the such wonderfully explanation to the Westen people about the Chinese history, about Taiwan, opium war and Japanese imperialism… the knowledge of the Westen society about Chinese history is very poor…
Maybe it's the only way the Democrats can get rid of Nancy
Excellent conversation. Thank you.
Great journalism and commentary….
It's just a distraction from her stock trading scandal.
Let her go to Taiwan. Freedom to travel. And then, China will have freedom, too. Freedom to unify on the day she sets foot on Taiwan soil. China can be there to greet her. I'm not a CCP supporter, but, dislike the US govt's provocation.
If a province rebelled, the US is ready support that rebellious state? If the US did not want the southern States of the US to break away ,why does it support what it hated in its own land ?
Thanks to Dr Ken Hammond for such an insightful discussion. Love it.
On the other hand, I wonder how many americans can really grasp the true meaning of it, sadly.
Thanks for this.
Taiwan is also the last bottleneck to completely shut down China being "allowed" out of its waters for good. Philippines has US bases, Japan has US bases, China's basically shut off with the exception of the areas around Taiwan if the US wants to cause a military incident, using the minimum of navy ships blocking off the Okhotsk Sea Tsugaru Strait, parts of Okinawa, Diaoyu Island, and the Philippine Sea between Taiwan and Luzon Island. This is why the US constantly conduct "Freedom of Navigation" drills in the Sea of Japan, to scout and test Chinese naval development. It's the American great wall to basically blockade everything east of China. That's the warmongering Peloshit's motive all along. It's why even Trump will defend her racist behaviour, and she actively ignores the pleas of brutalized Asian Americans. paid for by Raytheon.
Bet it's got more to do with keeping China from having their own Advanced Fabrication Nodes for Semiconductors, like getting ASML's XUV Machines placed on Controlled Export lists, as part of an attempt to prevent the PRC from producing Chips based on sub-32/28 nm lithographies, Domestically. Just Innovate and Compete, or file a Chapter 11 if the Market's "being Mean" to these poor, Payola-for-Subsidies scheming Multinational Megacorps.
There is currently NO US bases in the Philippines. What is currently in place is the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) which allows the US to deploy its troops in the Philippines. FYI, the VFA is not a popular agreement in the Philippines because the US forced the Philippines to give up judicial jurisdiction over American troops while stationed there. In other words, the Philippines cannot prosecute any American military personnel for any crime committed in the Philippines.
@@JD-yz4kr and a 1954 Mutual Defense Treaty with Washington
All American bases on Philippine soil were closed from 1991 after it's Senate and Congress unilaterally voted for the TERMINATION of the bases agreement between Manila and Washington
Actually according to a Chinese general all bases around China will be destroyed in the first hours of conflict .
US and allies will have no chance to have their navies to stay a afloat.
No it is China that will block US , Japan with China's controls of SCS and Taiwan straits.
Look at the map and see even India will be blocked from ME with participation of Pakistan
US fleet cannot even replenish their small arsenal of low tech missiles.
PLA said that if she comes, her plane will be destroyed.
If you ask any American where Taiwan is they probably won’t know where it is.
