House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is intent on taking a trip to Taiwan which has infuriated the government in Beijing. The Chinese government is most certainly an evil one. Taiwan is a democracy while China is a totalitarian state.
Reality has to intrude here. Nancy Pelosi is a politician and more than likely is attempting to play politics on a very delicate issue. The stupidity of the Democrats and their ignorance of foreign affairs has the potential to do enormous damage to international peace and stability.
Should China invade Taiwan it will be impossible to remove Chinese forces. War with China is unthinkable based on reality. The hawkish statements coming from both parties indicated they have not learned from the mistakes in Ukraine. The Democrats (but also the neocons) played politics with Russia and Ukraine. Their demand that Ukraine become a member of NATO led to the Russian invasion.
Taiwan is not the only problem with China. America’s biggest problem with China is the lab leak in Wuhan which led to the pandemic. House Speaker Pelosi and the Democrats should stop the political posturing. If they want to challenge China’s nefarious influence they should begin investigating China’s stooges in Washington.
Shut down the January 6 investigations and join the Republicans in investigating the origins of the Wuhan lab leak. Anthony Fauci is complicit with the Chinese government and military. Fauci authorized funding for gain of function research in Wuhan and cared nothing about the involvement of the Chinese Communist Party and the People’s Liberation Army with said research.
Crack down on Americans involved with China. This includes Fauci and Eco Health Alliance which funded the Wuhan Labs. We should also remember that the World Health Organization is complicit with the Chinese coverup in Wuhan. That organization’s Director General has longstanding ties with Beijing and accepted at face value Chinese assurances that covid could not be spread from person to person.
The Trump administration cut off aid to the World Health Organization when it refused to reform itself by cutting off Chinese influence. Nancy Pelosi is a fraud and an incompetent politician playing politics over Taiwan. The Biden administration resumed funding to the World Health Organization. There are also the ties between Beijing and Hunter Biden.
It is well known that the Ughyurs in China are the victims of genocide. Over one million of these Muslims are held in concentration camps. It would be more helpful if Pelosi went to the Chinese mainland to discuss the Ughyurs and the Wuhan lab along with Taiwan. Visits to Taiwan should be made by professional diplomats at the State Department.
Considering the Democrats responsibility for the war in Ukraine, it is impossible to take them seriously on foreign policy. Yes, China is a totalitarian government but also a major power. Tensions should be defused and the status quo on Taiwan should be maintained.
Pelosi and the Democrats have taken hawkish stands on Ukraine and Taiwan. This despite the American failures in Iraq and Afghanistan. Do they really want to risk conflict with China? We know they are willing to risk conflict with Russia.
Once again we see the difference between conventional politicians in both parties and Donald Trump. Both parties believe in participating in wars in order to promote their ideas of “democracy”. Trump to his credit did not believe in this bullshit and succeeded in not starting any wars for four years.
Taiwan deserves independence but the Unites States cannot guarantee that independence. Caution and deescalation should dictate how to proceed with China. A free and democratic China should be the long term goal which will benefit Taiwan in the long term.
The process of democratizing China can begin by addressing the Wuhan lab leak and the Ughyurs first and foremost. Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats have a nerve. They have stayed quiet on the matter of Chinese responsibility for Covid. Everything they do is about politics and that is what Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan is about.
One reply on “Nancy Pelosi And China”
Pelosi’s unauthorized trip to China was reckless beyond comprehension. Face is everything to the Chinese, she made Xi Jinpeng lose face in front of his own people-that state of affairs is intolerable for Xi. As bad as Pelosi’s actions are, even worse is the weakness in the Biden Administration in repudiating her actions-the Chinese see this as sanction for changing the One-China policy the US has accepted for decades. Biden should have prohibited Pelosi from using official US Government Aircraft and forced her to take a commercial flight into Taiwan-that would have meant a lot to the Chinese, but Biden/Blinken are too weak and incompetent to take forceful actions like that.
Chinese owns $ 1Trillion of US Debt (American Government Bonds), they have subsidized our Deficits so Washington DC could continue it’s never-satisfied Spending addiction. If they threatened to not roll over that Debt it would send this nation-and probably the world-into a major economic disaster. China doesn’t have to resort to military action, they can hammer us with induced Depressions.
The Biden State Department has stirred up trouble in Ukraine, Taiwan, Syria, Iraq, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Cyprus, Azerbaijan, Sri Lanka and now in several nations in South America. America’s good name has been trashed, nobody believes US promises anymore. The USA is believed to be an imperial power in many parts of the world, creating problems and destabilizing nations. When the USA loses it’s respect, world instability suffers. IMO, the world is in an unstable state much like we were in the lead up to WW1. That is what Blinken/Nuland/Sullivan have given us. Utterly appalling.
