I went to London in 2003. And I was at a bar. They were into like, imperial Chinese stuff and how ancient China were morally superior cultural examples.
That's what the bars in London were like at the time.
They were radically in favor of China everything and opposed to America everything.

There are today a lot of labor strikes in Europe.

Are right wingers trading through the ports in the Baltic Sea?
How about Lubeck, Gdansk, and Copenhagen?
Are there right wingers in those ports and labor unions?

Maybe somehow labor unions can explain some of these labor strikes.

One child policy
Zero covid policy
Flu lockdown policy
Cultural revolution stuff

The Germans might develop radios to assist Beijing in enforcing these policies.

This is me talking about the labor strikes in France and Germany. 3-18-23

He was from Indiana.
He knew when to send our planes and when they were refueling their planes.

Here is the Walter Payton leap. It might be time to leap so to speak over, because Beijing is really on the defensive.

THIS IS A BIG DEAL
WE ARE WANTING MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHINESE FOREIGN MINISTRY BECAUSE IT'S LIKE AT THIS POINT WHAT CAN THEY SAY?

It was in the 1960s. And it was a big deal. Kind of the Indians and the Chinese are rivals.
They share a border. And they both have large armies.
And so that has been in the newspaper, it's kind of unbelievable if there are skirmishes between Beijing and New Delhi. It was an actual war in the 1960s though. It's called the Sino-Indian War.

[China has had an unusually busy and bizarre week. On Monday - as the saga over the alleged spy balloon dragged into its 11th day - a fresh spat erupted between Beijing and Manila. This one was over lasers. The Philippines accused China of using a "military grade" laser light on a Philippine coastguard boat. It said the incident had happened on 6 February when the boat was attempting to take supplies to the Sierra Madre, a vessel that is used as a Filipino naval outpost in the South China Sea; and that a Chinese vessel intercepted the Filipino coast guard boat, blocked its way and used a laser device to temporarily blind the crew. It's not clear what sort of device the Chinese crew used or how powerful it was, but laser weapons designed to damage eyesight are banned under UN convention. The incident has been quickly condemned by a host of countries including the United States, Australia, Japan and Germany.]
