US: Biden Anti-China Racism – A Dangerous Warmongering! (30.8.2023)

All this intrusion into ‘rights of consciousness’ could be carried-out in a friendly and comfortable environment – whilst an English-language US documentary plays in the background which explains the American persecution of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg – and the eventual execution of these two US citizens in 1953 – for being ‘Communists’. To soften-up these non-Chinese individuals – whilst sat waiting for their ‘interview’ – the blatantly ‘racist’ (1956) interview of Paul Robeson by the US government could be played as a form of ‘mood music’. Personally, I would also show silent film footage of US Army soldiers surrendering ‘en masse’ to Chinese Volunteer Army soldiers during the US War of Aggression in Korea (1950-1953) – projected on a nearby wall – playing in a loop. All light-hearted interrogation techniques delivered in a non-threatening manner – with NO sinister undertones or racist implications.

“No one has even asked about our condition, and no humanitarian organization helped and assisted us,” said Khan. “The United States has oppressed the whole land of Afghanistan with its plans and programs.”

In 2017 the U.S. military relaxed its rules of engagement for airstrikes in Afghanistan, which resulted in a dramatic increase in civilian casualties, according to a report named Costs of War conducted by the Brown University.

From the last year of the Obama administration (2016) to the last full year of recorded data during the Trump administration (2020), the number of civilians killed by U.S.-led airstrikes in Afghanistan increased by 330 percent, the report noted.

“They (The U.S. forces) killed a two-and-half-year-old girl, a two-year-old girl and another one-and-half-year-old girl. What was the crime of those innocent children?” Khan said.

“This seriously harms the lawful rights and interests of the Chinese students and undermines normal people-to-people exchanges and educational cooperation between the two countries,” Wang said.

“We urge the United States to genuinely welcome Chinese students as it has said, withdraw the biased and discriminatory Proclamation 10043, and stop going after Chinese students in the United States in the name of national security,” Wang said.

China will continue to take necessary measures to defend Chinese citizens’ lawful rights and interests and remind its students heading for the United States to be mindful of such risks, the spokesperson added.

US: 2022 All-Time “High” Suicide Rate – “Not Biden’s Fault”! (28.8.2023)

Karen Cassiday, a clinical psychologist and managing director of the Anxiety Treatment Centre of Greater Chicago and past president of the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, said the pandemic was detrimental to the overall mental health of people in the US. She advised anyone who needs it to seek help.

Historically, “the norm for any population is to show some impairment in mental health when a mass event occurs, such as famine or war”, she said. “After six months most people adapt, and the general population returns to its normal pre-event level of mental health.”

However, in the case of the pandemic, this did not occur. “The pandemic had several unique characteristics that lent themselves to triggering anxiety, depression. Anxiety disorders do not go away on their own. They can be readily treated.”

China: British Museum – “No Idea” How Much Loot It Possesses – Or Where It Might Be! (28.8.2023)

The Admonitions of the Instructress to the Court Ladies collected in the British Museum is the closest copy of the prestigious Chinese painting by Gu Kaizhi. It is one of the most famous collections of the museum. It was plundered from the court of the Qing Dynasty during the Siege of Beijing by the Eight-Nation Alliance in 1900.

There are very few tri-colored Luohan statues of the Liao Dynasty in the world and those collected in the British Museum were stolen overseas from the Yixian County, Hebei Province.

The British Museum has refused to return the cultural relics over the years mainly on the grounds and basis of the British Museum Act, which was amended by the British Parliament in 1963 and basically prohibits the museum from returning any of its collections.

The British leading human rights lawyer Geoffrey Robertson QC said “The trustees of the British Museum have become the world’s largest receivers of stolen property, and the great majority of their loot is not even on public display.”

DPRK: Borders Re-Open to its Citizens Abroad! (27.8.2023)

SEOUL, Aug. 27 (Xinhua) — The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) has reopened its borders to its citizens staying abroad, a major step to ease its anti-epidemic border control measures, the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported Sunday.

The State Emergency Epidemic Prevention Headquarters issued an announcement on Saturday, saying DPRK citizens abroad “have been allowed to return home,” considering the eased worldwide pandemic situation.

Those returned will be put under proper medical observation at quarantine wards for a week.

The DPRK was among the first countries to impose strict border control since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020.
