Crimes by US forces, allies against Afghan civilians must be investigated: Chinese FM by Global Times Sep 01 2021
The murder of civilians by US forces and their allies over the past 20 years must be investigated thoroughly and the killers must be brought to justice, although the US has withdrawn from Afghanistan, Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday.
The lives of Afghan people should be protected and the rights of Afghan people should be defended. At stake is international justice and the rule of law and world human rights development, Wang Wenbin, spokesperson of Chinese Foreign Ministry, said at Wednesday’s media briefing.
Wang’s remarks were made after US strikes in Kabul which resulted in deaths to civilians in the past several days.
Wang said that data showed that 47,245 Afghan civilians died by April 2020 in the war in Afghanistan launched by the US.
In the latest tragedy on Sunday, at least ten people, including children, were killed in a US drone strike targeting a vehicle in the Afghan capital of Kabul.
Prior to that, a suicide blast killed 170 Afghan people and 13 US soldiers at Kabul airport last week. Some survivors have raised the possibility that a number of Afghan people were actually killed by American fire amid the chaos and confusion instead of by bombing.
Wang said the killing of Afghan civilians by US troops frequently happened, and he listed several examples.
In 2019, a US drone strike mistakenly killed at least 30 Afghan farmers in Nangarhar province. A former US soldier and a drone pilot said in a testimony for a UN expert committee that the drone strikes were purely killing for the sake of killing, and that the US airstrikes led to far more Afghan civilian deaths than the official statistics of the US government.
In 2015, an Afghan anti-narcotics police force on a mission was attacked by NATO fighter jets and 15 officers died.

US war machine has nothing to do with freedom democracy human rights and rules of laws since after WWII. US war machine is a well equipped army funded by taxpayers as private army for Fortune 500 companies to go out to steal robbed and committed crimes against humanity immune from prosecution either under US or International Laws. The best part is these corporations do not pay federal income tax! 二戰後,美國戰爭機器與自由民主人權和法治毫無關係。 美國戰爭機器是一支由納稅人資助的裝備精良的軍隊,作為財富 500 強公司的私人軍隊,可以出去盜竊搶劫和犯下的危害人類罪,不受美國或國際法起訴。 最好的部分是這些公司不支付聯邦入息稅!
“Taiwan United Daily News” reporter Huang Guoliang is the first one exposed Tsai government’s cooperation with the United States, and reveal a terrifying secret. Taiwan has the largest concentration of Chinese. Using COVID19 vaccines as an excuse, Tsai Government cooperate with US to extract big data on Chinese genome for biological warfare targeting Chinese only that could eliminate Chinese from the earth planet.

Professor John Walsh in San Francisco: Wang Donghua’s statement is right on the money. The pandemic is a test of the capability, wisdom and social responsibility of a nation and society.
The US and EU have failed this test miserably. China has succeeded beyond what anyone might have imagined with a people’s mobilization and capable political and scientific leadership. Unfortunately two of the US leaders you cite are not really worthy of emulation: Roosevelt consciously set the US on a path to global hegemonism (See the book “Tomorrow the World” by Stephen Wertheim of the Quincy Institute and Kennedy nearly blew up the planet with his miserable handling of the Cuban Missile Crisis and then set us on the path to War on Vietnam, enthusiastically continued by his henchmen, The Best and The Brightest. These Presidents may be lionized in American pop culture but they deserve a more careful examination lest we elect yet another of their ilk.
China has administered over 2.0 billion doses domestically and delivered close to 900 million to other countries.
CGTN reports that China has now FULLY vaccinated 63% of the Chinese population with booster shots already given to those in key areas (like frontline health care) who were fully vaccinated early on.
(If China wishes it can also give a BioNTech mRNA booster which of course vaccinates one only against the spike protein and not against the entire virus as the inactivated Chinese vaccines do. Fosun Pharma in China has contracted with BioNTech to produce as much as 1 billion doses which might include a new vaccine tailored to the delta variant – IF needed and IF China does not produce such a vaccine itself since it already has one of its own (at least) in clinical trials. So far it has found no need to use such vaccines with their narrow immunogenic focus.)
Most importantly, China has so far succeeded where all other nations have failed by completely controlling the delta variant with a combination of its extremely impressive public health measures now augmented by its massive vaccination campaign to be completed (100%) by year’s end.
Today the US reported about 100,000 new cases and 1000 deaths I believe.
For the ENTIRE epidemic China has had less than 5000 deaths (actually fewer than 4700) and fewer than 100,000 cases.
In the last two days there have been ZERO new domestically transmitted cases in China with about 30 from foreign sources – these numbers are holding steady.
