“The Long March” to a Century of Chinese Humiliation 
Begins with One American DOJ Indictment of Five Chinese People’s Liberation Army [PLA] “Hackers”. 

As most of you have already heard,  the DOJ just indicted for the first time in history five Chinese military officers in Shanghai for hacking into American companies illegally.   Just as Snowden’s revelations about NSA hacking of American citizens’ computers was about to subside,  some genius in nation-state behavior at DOJ came up with a new way to humiliate our ally/adversary, China.  Whoever thought of jailing five PLA members as way of retaliating for Chinese hacking into our industries [Alcoa, Westinghouse, US Steel, et. al. ] and extracting ‘trade secrets’ has forgotten the history of china vis a vis the USA and western powers in general.
  From the very beginning of the Opium Wars in the early part of the 19th century to the end of WWII when the Chinese finally rid themselves of torturous Japanese occupation,  China has endured what is commonly considered by national security experts as a “Century of Humiliation”.   For those of you who are not versed in psychology, one of the most critical dynamics of eastern culture is the AVOIDANCE OF SHAME/HUMILIATION.   That particular psychological dynamic is the basis of allowing the Chinese to feel as if they are still part of the historical “Middle Kingdom”.


The Middle Kingdom is a concept in which the Chinese have long believed.  Bush Sr had understood this concept all too well and treated the Chinese as if they are a long-standing, honorable society that had discovered many so-called ‘western inventions’ centuries before there was even a western civilization.   As Confucius says: ”Respect your elders.”
“Respect” in terms of national security means  that one nation does not go out of its way to insult,  indict or assassinate anyone publicly.   Well, folks, just like everything else that Obama has done so far,  both domestically and in terms of foreign policy,  this PLA indictment… is one real FUBAR!! Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition!!  Trust me folks that no matter what the Chinese PLA or others have done,  we, Americans have done the same thing or worse.  We just don’t admit it.
  As the Snowden revelations came out,   it was clear that our own USG has been spying on us for a very long time in the name of ‘ersatz’ terrorism.  That is our national problem that we,  Americans,  have to deal with constructively.  When you have an administration like Obama’s which has not had a foreign policy strategy nor game plan other than attack in the ‘name of freedom’[Libya]; or ‘drone attacks’ with massive collateral damage;  then one should expect such  tactical errors repeatedly.  As I have said in the past blogs,  Obama was born of and by the nefarious, tactical CIA , bereft of any strategic or long-term thinking or capability.
Now as Obama has driven Russia into the arms of China,  Obama has unwittingly unleashed a stream of humiliating assaults on the Chinese who have ‘hacked’ into our industries.  However, folks, let’s not forget that the NSA  has repeatedly hacked into the Chinese communications system,  in the name of ‘American national security’.
Decades of working in five American administrations, has taught me one simple fact—don’t HUMILIATE or INSULT A COUNTRY or it’s LEADERS … UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED TO GO TO WAR!!!!
We are not prepared to go to war,  thanks to the incompetence of three former US Presidents—Clinton, Bush Jr, Obama—and so that leaves us with one LEGITIMATE ALTERNATIVE---COVERT ACTIONS/HACKING!!!   The world of covert actions was intended to allow the host countries the ability and legitimacy to continue their relationships, as tortuous as those bonds may be.   But under no condition,  does anyone’s misbehavior allow for one or another country to HUMILIATE the CHINESE!Humiliation is practiced by the incompetent,  ignorant and desperate officials of any nation.
We are now beset,  not just by incompetency, but an obsessive, unwarranted need to make ourselves, as a nation, despised more intensely than we are right now, for no other reason than some childish need to retaliate.  Whichever moron, in this Obama administration, thought that humiliation is the best way to modify Chinese behavior,  should expect me and others around the world to humiliate him/her.

It does not take a psychiatrist to figure out what the outcome of this initial foray by Eric Holder means to the rest of America--- loss of jobs; loss of economic investments in China; untold Chinese retaliations of unspecified nature.  We have in one swift irresponsible illegal, absurd action just wiped out decades of hard work of those of us who represented our country and worked with the Chinese in far more trying circumstances.

  Congratulations to all those in this administration who feel that our Fortune Five Hundred Companies: Westinghouse,  Alcoa, US Steel, et al. ---lost profits because they could not effectively compete with China.  Why don’t you ask US Steel how America stole the secrets for the making of steel?  Oops! I am sorry! That would take too much time and knowledge!!   Why don’t you ask Westinghouse why the French are number one in the world in nuclear power? Why don’t you ask Alcoa why their performance in general has been on the downturn for years?   And its not because of the Chinese hacking!
 

These lawyers in DOJ really don’t know how to do “due process” or make foreign policy.   Sorry Cyrus Vance, Warren Christopher, and James Baker—these were outstanding lawyers who happened to have been great Secretary Of States.   I can assure you they would never have humiliated any country---let alone one which has literally created WALMART, and dozens of other Public US Companies.
So long Home Depot and other US public companies that depend on Chinese “good will” and rational trade practices.  Thank the DOJ for your future losses!  Oh, and thank DOJ for job losses while you are at it because the first thing American companies do when business is bad-  cut payroll.

  1. I don't think State had anything to say on this topic. I think Holder and his butt buddy soul brother Barry cooked up the idea that they could make themselves look heroic by grandstanding on this issue.

    It's obviously counter-productive.

    Now as for Warren Christopher - I used to call him prune face. He liked to fall asleep in publiic a lot, and needed a course in DICTION because he and Director Casey used to get together and practice mumbling together. Christopher was a LA lawyer and I don't know what being a county courthouse shyster does to give one knowledge about foreign affairs. Lawyers like Christopher, Baker, et. al. know nothing about history, the motives of other leaders, or anything. They read the papers and crap like that and are full of false notions and idiotic ideas about everything outside the borders of their country.

    Howard Baker is of course a Texas counterpart of prune face, and that means he's going to be even more ignorant and even crooked. Baker is a crook, and constantly used his political position to make contacts for business purposes and to find clients for his stupid firm in Texas - Baker and Botts.

    Now as for Cy Vance..LOL is all I can say. The guy was a wimp, an ignoramous, and a not-so-manly guy who never impressed any foreign leader.

    Let me say from experience what foreign leaders respect, based on my personal experience.

    All countries outside of the USA, with very few exceptions, are patrimonial societies.

    As such the men who rule in such places will respect and admire other men who act and appear as MEN.

    If you send a frightened wimp like Vance, a puny weeny like Christopher, or a faggot like Baker to see them they will have nothing but contempt for the society which produced them.

    The first thing about diplomacy at high levels is to have only healthy, confident, athletic gentlemen representing your country. They must be sober, strong, and able to attract women and the admiration of other men.

    Look at the Youtube vid of Putin at his breakfast meeting with Obama and you'll see Putin looking contemptuously at Obama, who out of embarissment and inconfidence smiles and grins, never looks Putin in the eyes, pulls on his socks, points his finger in the air......

    What a fucking wimp.

    Lawyers and the world of lawyers is a sick, corrupt world of devious and evil men.

    Keep lawyers and their wimpy fat asses out of world affairs and get some real men involved.

    We need men who are CONFIDENT ENOUGH IN THEIR MASCULINITY TO NOT USE FORCE when it's not necessary.

    Look at all the neocons and you'll see wimps who like to use force because they are fucking toads who are disgusting to everyone.

    And keep all women and faggots out of diplomacy also because they have the same problem.

    This is a man's world.

    'nuff said.

    1. "Howard Baker is of course a Texas counterpart..." No. I also confused the two Bakers for many years. Maybe we all did.

      Howard Baker is from Tennessee.

      James Baker is from Texas.

  2. In the 1980s Reagan sent actor John Gavin to be the Ambassador to Mexico. Everyone laughed because Gavin was an actor. But the Mexicans loved him. He was the most effective Ambassador the US ever had there.

  3. Donald Trump at CPAC ON CHINA:
    “China, which I’ve been talking about for the last five years, yesterday – right in our face – they just devalued our currency,” Trump said. “What they’re really saying is, ‘We’re really ripping you big league. Nobody’s ever done it better than us, but now we’re going to really do it again.’” He said that China can “get away” with this behavior because America’s leadership is “weak” and “pathetic.”
    “They have no respect for our leader and, frankly, they have no respect any longer for our great country,” Trump asserted.

    http://t.mediaite.com/mediaite/#!/toc/

    The following is the actual text of a speech delivered in December, 2005 by Comrade Chi Haotian ­the Vice-Chairman of China's Military Commission to top officers and generals:

    "...We still need America. Therefore, we must do everything we can to promote our relationship with America, learn from America in all aspects and use America as an example to reconstruct our country. Only by using special means to 'clean up' America will we be able to lead the Chinese people there. Only by using non-destructive weapons that can kill many people will we be able to reserve America for ourselves.

    There has been rapid development of modern biological technology, and new bio weapons have been invented one after another. Of course we have not been idle; in the past years we have seized the opportunity to master weapons of this kind. We are capable of achieving our purpose of 'cleaning up' America all of a sudden. When Comrade Xiaoping was still with us, the Party Central Committee had the perspicacity to make the right decision not to develop aircraft carrier groups and focused instead on developing lethal weapons that can eliminate mass populations of the enemy country. Biological weapons are unprecedented in their ruthlessness, but if the Americans do not die then the Chinese have to die. If the Chinese people are strapped to the present land, a total societal collapse is bound to take place. According to the computations of the author of Yellow Peril, more than half of the Chinese will die, and that figure would be more than 800 million people! Just after the liberation, our yellow land supported nearly 500 million people, while today the official figure of the population is more than 1.3 billion. This yellow land has reached the limit of its capacity. One day, who know how soon it will come, the great collapse will occur any time and more than half of the population will have to go.

    It is indeed brutal to kill one or two hundred million Americans. But that is the only path that will secure a Chinese century, a century in which the CCP leads the world. We, as revolutionary humanitarians, do not want deaths, But if history confronts us with a choice between deaths of Chinese and those of Americans, we'd have to pick the latter, as, for us, it is more important to safeguard the lives of the Chinese people and the life of our Party. The last problem I want to talk about is of firmly seizing the preparations for military battle. The central committee believes, as long as we resolve the United States problem at one blow, our domestic problems will all be readily solved. Therefore, our military battle preparation appears to aim at Taiwan, but in fact is aimed at the United States, and the preparation is far beyond the scope of attacking aircraft carriers or satellites. Marxism pointed out that violence is the midwife for the birth of the new society. Therefore war is the midwife for the birth of China's century."

  4. Reagan was an ignoramous, a nutball, and a horrible President. But he had good hair and was athletic. Because of that the public listened to him and gave him credibility. That's called leadership.

  5. In 1992 Bill Clinton un-seated a sitting President because Clinton was youthful and vigorous while Bush talked funny and was a goofball.

    In 1960 Kennedy whipped ass on the flabby faced Nixon.

  6. In 2000 the hunk Al Gore defeated the vulgarian shit kicking W. Bush.....but Bush stole the election so that's a Texan for you. Texans are the crookedest group of evildoers you'll ever find, and PARTICULARLY ONES FROM HOUSTON OR DALLAS like Howard Baker and all his sicko lawyers at the Baker and Botts law firm.

  7. In 1988 the Democrats could have defeated Bush easily but the Dems put forward a short hairy Greek who was HUMORLESS and had NO FUCKING PERSONALITY....and he had a sicko wife who was a degenerate alcoholic [who wouldn't be with a husband like that].

  8. A pageant of hypocrisy.

    Okay, Spy vs. Spy is going to happen, that's unavoidable in state-craft, best to have a field were the coyote can run & play all day.

    But this larger idiocy of playing war against your largest creditor and where billions are invested in the Chinese mainland, in non-moveable assets, easily confiscated or held hostage in times of trouble by an authoritarian government in Beijing.

    Better to engage China via the political-economy where trade in goods & services and access to the U. S. Market is a field where America can engage China in a way that serves the American Peoples' interest without war and potentially holds the high cards. (At least this is theoretically the case.)

    Right now, the consensus, neoconservative foreign policy, currently being acted out by the Democratic Obama administration is driving China & Russia together.

    Even the butcher, Henry Kissinger, knew that a Chinese and Russian combination was not in the U.S. national interest, yet the neoconservative policies of aggression step-by-step have pushed the two countries together.

    Now China and Russia will engage on their borders and common interests regardless of U. S. conduct, but this reckless policy, the lying, duplicity, and deceit backed by threats of military buildup and supposed encirclement is bound to explode in everybody's face.

    It a schizophrenic policy -- cynical & crude -- worse yet, bound to break the financial wherewithal of the U. S. financial system just at a time when indications are appearing that financial system is over-stretched with marginal capacity for handling additional stress.

    There can be successful negotiations with China.

    The Chinese can be reasonable in negotiations when presented in business-like tones.

    The Chinese are businessmen.

    Reasonable businessmen recognize the interests of others they wish to do business with over a sustained period of time.

    But they have to be treated firmly, politely, and respectfully.

    Hard bargaining is to be expected, as a matter of course.

    1. In 2008 the Premier of China told Henry Paulson that if China wanted that they could crash the American economy by selling off it's bond holdings, and implied that they wouldn't do so because they needed the relationship.

      Believe me, everyone in the government knows that situation. Everyone knows the potential vulnerability and that it's held together only by mutual need.

    1. Yeah but were the people in the cold war any better?

      Read the history of how the US got into Vietnam or Korea or any of these issues and tell me that they knew more about what they were doing?

      I don't think their is any real statecraft. I think they are all a bunch of ignorant bumblers who don't know what the fuck is going on.

      I mean for Gods sake in my day we completely and totally misread what the Russians were doing in Afghanistan.

      Statecraft is all folly.

  10. The worst part is those goof balls believe they were doing the right thing. If anyone else believes that then seek advice because your are high on the kool-aide enjoying their con game against you.
    No permanent resident of this country will benefit in the long run from the last three administrations. Clinton repealing the Glass-Steagle Act in 1998 and passing Nafta to move our manufacturing (best job for a blue collar guy or gal) jobs to China or Mexico got the ball rolling removing tariffs on imports and the highest corporate tax rate in the world with over zealous regulations from EPA, OSHA & AIPAC (oh) I mean Congress. Why would a large corporation stay here where it is forced to hired minorities qualified or not who they eventually get sued by because some feel entitled for what I don't know? My entire life you were called a racist if you didn't pay them special favors and my goodness if you look at them wrong you were deemed a bigot or racist. Plus you had to put up with their savage like temper & general unpredictable nature.
    It's just makes more sense to work and live with people similar in nature, behavior and values for me.
    Back to the big corp. it makes complete sense to go abroad especially when you can still sell your product here for a small shipping fee (no tariff) but you save in labor, cost of permits, taxes, law suites (US has 75% of the Worlds Attorneys) plus no
    dumb big bloated over charging gov. who no longer appreciates your value to the community and country. Common sense say run, now before the gate closes like east germany and no mass travel out.
    Trust me after Clinton then Bush's Patriot Act, 2008 meltdown 7 year's after the dot.com in 2001 they rested, no ball got going even faster downhill with the next admin. much faster. If you like this guy who has never told a single truth but lied to you everytime he opens his mouth (full of deceit & dumber than the last guy) seek help. You have been smacked with a strong hypnotic delusion.
    Bottom line! Middle class it is well planned out you will not financially remain middle class. That class will be removed because the powers that be want total control so you always are serving them not in the pursuit of happiness they through that out because some believed they needed protection from the boogie man who lives in a cave on the other side of the world and who died in 2001 from kidney failure. You've been tricked, deceived, bamboozled. Seek help because the boat is sinking faster everyday as they have pre planned because three administrations in a row cannot be that incompetent.
    USA will be Communist as soon as most of the gun's are collected. And if you are looking forward to that life style you could have gotten it years ago by going to Prison (thats the model). Agenda 21 sustainable living for those who survive the great culling beginning now plus the 7 talmudic noahide laws # 2 = completely diabolical.

  11. China has never had to deal with multiculturalism either. Diversity of races living together has never worked for very long in any culture its usually causes the fall of a society throughout history without each sticking with their own as a collective cohesive community or continent that society becomes splintered, divided by nature and weaker each generation as a result as hind sight is 20/20 for those who don't study history. General cohession as a society becomes less and weaker as a community or nation (natural racial & cultural differences) and divided you fall similar to our now 2,000 denominations (division) of religion's we now have. Divided once majority white nations are now weak & we are out of places to go in this world so I am confident the genocide will continue to gain speed until we are all devoured as South Africa has been then you have the US, UK, Canada and New Zealand, Russia with Europe in transition now. Then they can start on the next race, then the next, next and the last one standing, the Asian of China will be the slave to the talmudic jew has their protocol since at least 1897. Thanks for letting me vent on your site have a great evening. I am in the E.S.T. zone ready to call it a day. Catch you later.

    1. "Multiculturalism" is a huge weakness in any country.

      Look at the United States, Iraq, Great Britain, Spain or other places with widely different cultures and you'll see the lack of unity prevents these places from accomplishing the things that homogeneous countries like Germany or Korea can do.

      Homogeneous countries which are also nation states can accomplish much more.

      In fact now that Russia is by itself it's having a rebirth of nationalism which is the only thing sustaining them.
