Professor John V Walsh, MD in San Francisco: Great article on Daszak and lab leak theory in recent Science mag.
The scientific community has shown itself to be on the right side of the Lab Leak Allegation, largely because it is on the side of science. Still it shows integrity. It is, however, disappointing that so few academics have signed on to the Stanford letter.
Daily fake news by the Western Empire AngloSaxon World against China is working beautifully…the mouthpiece of Western Empire: NYT, CNN, WSJ, Fox News, BBC etc are doing such a good job. (Don’t forget at least 1/2 of the overseas Chinese lives in the 5 eyes and AngloSaxon countries have a death wish on China).
A pair of racists US lawmakers using Nazi tactics introduced a resolution on Friday accusing the International Olympic Committee of helping Chinese authorities whitewash tennis superstar Peng Shuai’s sexual assault claims
Open Letter to the Committee for a Sane U.S.- China Policy “U.S. Hands Off Taiwan and the South China Sea,”
Joseph Gerson Committee for a Sane U.S.- China Policy
Dear Joseph Gerson,
Thank you for your recent update on U.S. policies toward China and your factsheet on the “One China” Policy Explained. As our nation is taking a more aggressive military stance around the world, it is important that we have a full and open discussion of U.S. foreign policy, with all viewpoints represented. At the same time, I am reluctant to endorse your suggestion that both China and the U.S. must share in the responsibility for the current dangerous situation. Primary responsibility lies with U.S. imperialism.
As an alternative, I hope you will consider the enclosed statement from Veterans For Peace, “U.S. Hands Off Taiwan and the South China Sea,” which states, in part that
“The time when the U.S. Navy patrolled the Yangtze River is over. The Eurocentric idea that Asian nations require the United States to defend them from themselves has no place in the Twenty First Century. The People’s Republic of China does not now, nor has it ever, threatened the territorial security or people’s well-being of the United States or any NATO country, and
“Therefore Be It Resolved that Veterans For Peace urges the government of the United States to withdraw all military and naval forces from the Straits of Taiwan and the South China Sea and re-examine U.S. arms sales to the Republic of China in Taiwan, and
“Be It further Resolved that Veterans For Peace urges its members and supporters to remember that the resolution of the status of Taiwan is the internal affair of the Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Straits into which the United States has no right to intervene.”
NOTE: This resolution does not endorse any political party within the PRC nor any internal policy of the PRC, nor does it favor China over any other Asian nation. Our resolution simply grows out of a central part of our mission: to restrain our government from intervening overtly or covertly in the internal affairs of other nation.
FURTHER: While we insist on restraining our government from intervening overtly or covertly in the internal affairs of other nations, we want to encourage people-to-people relations between the U.S. and China, including student exchanges, tourism, and fair trade.
In addition to our statement, “U.S. Hands Off Taiwan and the South China Sea,” I am also enclosing another VFP Statement, “Pivot to Peace with China and the World,” which applies our VFP principles to China,
I look forward to your response.
With solidarity in our common struggle for peace,
Eugene E Ruyle President, VFP East Bay Chapter 162 (Berkeley/Oakland) Emeritus Professor of Anthropology and Asian Studies California State University, Long Beach
Video: China-Laos 1,035-kilometer-long Railway roars in full swing today, brings Laos into modern transport era amid BRI endeavor by GT staff reporters, Dec 03 2021
The 1,035-kilometer-long China-Laos Railway, a signature project under the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative, officially went into full operation on Friday, catapulting the landlocked Southeast Asian nation into a Chinese standard-powered modern railway era that honors China’s promise of enabling inclusive growth along the BRI routes.
Chinese President Xi Jinping and Lao President Thongloun Sisoulith witnessed the opening of the railway via video link.
The opening of the China-Laos Railway will make Laos’ dream of becoming a land-linked hub come true. China will ensure the maintenance and security of the railway and build high-quality, sustainable and people-friendly economic belts along the route, President Xi told Thongloun via video link.
The China-Laos Railway, the biggest public project in Laos’ history, links Kunming of Southwest China’s Yunnan Province with Laos’ capital Vientiane, including a 106-kilometer section from Kunming to Yuxi in Yunnan with a designed speed of 200 kilometers per hour, which had already been put into operation in December 2016.
The newly built 507-kilometer section connecting Yuxi and Mohan, a border town in Yunnan, with a designed speed of 160 kilometers per hour, adds to another 422-kilometer new section from Mohan to Vientiane, also designed to travel at 160 kilometers per hour, China Railway said in a statement sent to the Global Times.
The Yuxi-Mohan section was built by China Railway Kunming Group, while the Mohan-Vientiane section, largely within Laos, was built by a China-Laos joint venture.
As a landmark project of the BRI as well as China-Laos friendship that entirely adopts Chinese standards, the railway will provide strong support for accelerating the completion of the China-Laos Economic Corridor and building a China-Laos community with a shared future, read the China Railway statement.
The China-Laos railway is envisioned to directly boost cargo connectivity, turning Laos from a landlocked nation into a logistics center in the Southeast Asian region, facilitating interconnectedness between not only China and Laos, but also between Laos and ASEAN and between China and ASEAN, Gu Xiaosong, dean of the ASEAN Research Institute of Hainan Tropical Ocean University, told the Global Times on Friday.
The railway will be a big boost to Laos’ economy, Gu said, expecting commodities hailing from Southeast Asia to be shipped to China via Yunnan before being exported to Europe through China-Europe freight trains for there to be wider-ranging connectivity between the two continents.
More investments are expected in Laos after the railway opens, as businesses will be promoted, the expert said.
Twitter to censor positive XJ news by partnering with ASPI. ASPI is the military funded think tanks that is responsible for most of the lies around XJ. It was playing defense on XJ–so it is now partnered with Twitter so it can dominate the information landscape. Twitter 與 ASPI 合作審查新疆的正面新聞。 ASPI是美國軍方資助的智庫,負責新疆周圍的大部分謊言。 但它在新疆的假消息被親中人士進行防禦, 所以它現在與 Twitter 合作,因此它可以主宰信息領域。

Yet until recently, few had heard of the the US, UK, New Zealand, Australia and Canada intelligence sharing arrangement.
What is the Five Eyes?
With 2,700 employees and a $700 million budget, the Communications Security Establishment is Canada’s main contributor to the Five Eyes. Recently, the NSA-led alliance has been at the centre of Washington’s growing conflict with China.
