America-China: social d/Evolution
by Kwang zi Friday, Aug 8 2008, 11:10pm
international / social/political / commentary

As America pursues totalitarian methods with a vengeance, domestic spying, legalised torture, illegal detention, and denial of a raft of human rights, China steadily evolves into a more liberal society. Noticeably absent from the opening ceremony/spectacle of the Olympic games in Beijing was any reference to the last totalitarian, despotic emperor of China, Mao Zedong. A truly surprising but intentional omission in the dramatic opening display that touched on important periods/events in China’s history.

Mao waves goodbye
Mao waves goodbye

There is no denying the impact Mao had on China, the nation would not be where it is today without his intervention; Mao’s place in history is assured. However, the current Chinese administration chose to ignore his very powerful impact on the nation. A very clear and loud, for the Asian temperament, message was transmitted to the world by China’s new, more enlightened leaders. Contrast this with the flagrant HYPOCRITICAL accusations made by Bush in Bangkok just prior to arriving in Beijing for the opening ceremony.

At this critical juncture in world history every nation has chosen its course and China’s gesture clearly indicates that it is moving in the right direction. Sadly the same cannot be said for America; it has chosen social devolution, VIOLENCE and DESTRUCTION – the world is offered the choice between China’s cooperative business approach and America’s crude and brutish law of the jungle!

China like every other nation today is waging a war but its war is peaceful and subtle to the extreme. Its weapons are cooperation and enterprise for the BENEFIT OF ALL PARTIES. Contrast this with America’s vandalism, plunder and the destruction of entire nations/cultures.

The war China wages is largely on a subliminal battlefield though outcomes/results extend to the objective world. The methods the two superpowers employ/deploy are in stark contrast; the smiling let’s do business approach of China, as opposed to the bullet in the head, rape and plunder of brigands, murderers, thieves and Americans.

Bush’s feeble and unsuccessful attempt to stain China with the innocent blood he has on his own hands failed, as have all America's inverted political strategies to date. America has lost any edge it may have possessed and is clearly in RAPID and IRREVERSIBLE decline.

America’s elites, the best in every field of endeavour, have withdrawn their support from the primitive Bush administration. The destructive policies and idiotic statements that issue from the White House provide ample evidence of that FACT! China on the other hand has demonstrated its intelligence and skill by regulating its economy and winning the globalisation war. Bush’s economic record is evident to all and will go down in history and a major causative factor in America’s demise.

The strongest indicator to date that America is bereft of talent is the persistent and blind attempt to salvage an obviously FAULTY economic model. Laissez-faire Friedmanism IS A FAILED MODEL, it couldn’t be clearer, yet Bush and the Fed persist in their demented and futile attempts to fill a bucket with no bottom! The other major destructive policy the Bush regime pursued was the cynical/destructive social strategies of Leo Strauss. Bush’s beloved Chicago clique has effectively destroyed the nation. However, its last two advocates, Wolfowitz and Perle, remain in positions of influence and power.

There are no secrets to America’s decline; it simply could not successfully compete with a more skilled and intelligent world. Pursuing failed models and destructive ideologies destroyed America from within.

History will note the early indicators and warnings; the simplistic, “wanted dead or alive,” or “you’re either with us, or you’re with the terrorists” and the infamous “unknown knowns” all of which screamed INCOMPETENCE from the start!

America failed to divide and conquer the world with comic book logic and displays of cerebral vacuity. Its self-obsession blinded it to the easily accessed strategies of its competitor.
