Daniel Greefield: China Now More Dangerous Than USSR

 Mutually Assured Destruction was based on the idea that neither side would be willing to flirt with destruction. But China’s biowarfare attack ‘nuked’ itself, before going on to cause destruction among the economies targeted by the Communist regime. The Communist grip on power had been based on this fundamental willingness to sacrifice millions for its goals. And while the Communist regime maintained its popularity by offering social mobility and consumer gadgets, its elite remain committed to that same genocidal Maoist willingness to kill millions.

China’s biowarfare lab in Wuhan infected its own city before going on to release deadlier strains of the virus in Europe. The Wuhan release tested China’s own society and demonstrated the regime’s willingness to kill its own people in unknown numbers for the sake of the greater good.

All of this makes Communist China a deadlier enemy than the Soviet Union ever was.

“I had never faced death before nor seen it on other people’s faces. I’ll never forget those children. Or the look in their mothers’ faces,” said Eduardo Serrera in Helga Silva’s book The Children of Mariel.

While Cubans did not leave their country before 1959, once Cuba became Castro’s communist paradise, history is riddled with massive and daring escapes. There are enough thrilling and dramatic stories to fill entire libraries and entire graveyards. But these escapes happened in all countries that fall to Communism as life becomes unbearable.

Eduardo Serrera recalls the traumatizing event he experienced after leaving the port of Mariel, Cuba in 1980. He was crammed aboard a 24-foot shrimp boat along with 36 men, women and children. He was leaving with his mother, but was forced to travel separately by Castro’s guards. He lost track of her.

“By the third day water started coming into the boat. We used everything at hand – buckets, containers – to bail out.” Fortunately, around noon the U.S. Coast Guard spotted the boat. Serrera recalls, “The sailors had to make a human chain to physically lift us from our sinking boat.”

Aboard the cutter on their way to the U.S., they encountered other Cubans in distress in the Florida Straits. But not everybody could be saved because the waves prevented the Coast Guard cutter from getting close enough to rescue them. A boat was drifting away and falling apart and Serrera cannot forget the screams for help.

“It was awful.” When the women aboard realized that they could not be rescued, they “picked up their children and threw them over the railings over to our side. Eight or nine children were flung in the air. I caught one, a baby – about nine months old – so cold his skin was blue. And his eyes were open wide in terror.

“The women on the boat looked so desperate when their boat began to drift away. They wailed in pain. I could hear their voices trail off in the darkness begging us to look after their children.”

According to Helga Silva’s book, of the more than 125,000 refugees who came to the U.S. during the 1980 Mariel boatlift, there were 13,000 to 18,000 minors.

But the U.S. “liberal” media (with a few exceptions) was silent to these tragedies and at every opportunity the Cuban exiles were derided and vilified for being anti-communists. Their experiences with that totalitarian system were left out of the mainstream media and Americans were kept ignorant of this example of the evil of Marxist philosophy.

Today with the experience of the coronavirus and the secrecy of China's Communist Party, I hope that many wake up and think very seriously about the future of America and for whom they must vote. If we lose America, we don't have any place to escape to.

China, the World Health Organization, and Communism

The secrecy and deception surrounding the spread of the worldwide Coronavirus pandemic that led to multiple failures by the World Health Organization is not the fault of China alone.

Rather, it's the end result of a deceptive philosophy based in falsehoods and propaganda to keep its people and the rest of the world out of the loop.

If the cruel reality were ever known, there would not be so many “useful idiots” falling for it.

The behavior of China's silence related to the Coronavirus is a common, and perfectly normal, procedure to follow in totalitarian communist regimes.

Everything bad that happens inside communist countries is a State Secret. 

The survival and proliferation of the system requires it.

Fifteen years ago, I had in my home four legal immigrants from my former country. One of them was their 6 year old girl. 

After a few weeks she said something very surprising at the dinner table after she already have been exposed to American television news. Her remarkable comment was, “I don't like this country because bad things are happening here all the time. In Cuba nothing happens!”

Her clever observation was based in the fact that in communist Cuba they don't report crimes, accidents or anything negative that happens within the island. 

All the bad news comes from capitalist countries.

In the 1980s I had a visitor from Cuba, from a relatively well-educated family in Havana. 

I took him to the Air & Space Museum. To my surprise, while observing the Lunar Landing Module, he exclaimed that he didn't know that Americans had landed on the Moon in 1969!

He didn't know about the Sky Lab or the Apollo-Soyuz rendezvous in space, either. 

I rest my case.

China has just performed according to communist rules during this worldwide Coronavirus pandemic.

So wake up Americans, don't be surprised!

What happened is just another end result of Communism. 

How many more are going to die as a result of the usual internal secrecy under Communist rule?

In relation to the WHO (World Health Organization) cooperation with China in this ruse, I have another anecdote to share...

In 1967, after I arrived in the U.S., an acquaintance recommended that I apply to work at WHO headquarters in Washington, DC, also known as the Pan-American Health Organization.

I did--and was surprised by some of the people I met there. 

When they discovered that I was from Cuba they were told me how much they admired Castro's revolution. 

They also congratulated me on what good health care they have in Cuba, and expressed personal admiration that it was free for everybody.

Well, I had myself lived and suffered from the lack of medicines in Cuba. 

I knew personally how Cubans wrote to relatives in the U.S. begging for medicine, and the reality that Castro's regime confiscated half of those medical shipments. 

I had witnessed a young lady who died only because the communist regime took her U.S.-sent medicines. 

I saw and experienced the real cruelty of a communist totalitarian system. 

My brief work with WHO was therefore a disappointing experience.

If I could see it years ago, their attitude towards Communism obviously wasn't a secret. The sympathy of WHO bureaucracts  toward communist regimes has been clear for years. 

Therefore, I am not surprised by their recent collaboration with China.  Unfortunately, the WHO is now part of the Chinese Communist life-support system.

Sadly, U.S. taxpayer dollars are given to that institution, without the requirement that it be freed from Communist influence.

The result of American negligence in this regard has been predictably tragic.

THE LONG-TERM CHINESE PANDEMIC

by Agustin Blazquez with the collaboration of Jaums Sutton

According to the Black Book of Communism, “an estimated 65 million Chinese died as a result of Mao Zedong's repeated attemps to create a new 'Socialist' China” during his Cultural Revolution from 1966 until 1976.

According to Wikipedia, President Richard Nixon's 1972 visit to the People's Republic of China “was an important strategic and diplomatic overture that marked the culmination of the Nixon administration's resumption of harmonious relations between the United States and mainland China after years of diplomatic isolation.”

I understood why Nixon opened relations with China.  

But coming from a Communist country I know the way communist regimes operate and that they cannot be trusted.  I thought this was a grave mistake that would bring terrible consequences to the U.S. in the future.  

We now have a doozy.

A characteristic of the communist totalitarian regimes is that everything that occurrs inside their borders is initally held as a well-guarded State Secret.  

The Coronavirus is a precise example.

Their unforgiveable silence provoked the recent worldwide pandemic.  And they still don't accept responsibility for it.  Probably they never will for as long as they remain a totalitarian communist regime.

What bothers me the most after the unfortunate Nixon decision is the ignorance in the U.S. business community to even entertain the possibility that those communist fanatic cult members would realize the advantages of the free market and eventually adopt a real open free enterprise system.

They never did and never will because of their rigid ideology and power hunger.

They pretended to transform for international comsumption.  But continued with their inflexibility to real change, because their absolute control is required to maintain their absolute power.

The ones who benefited the most from the elite pretending to be capitalistic were the old Chinese ruling communist elite.  It worked for them while the U.S. turned a blind eye and they pretended to be capitalistic, in cahoots with unscrupulous foreign businessmen interested only in profits rather than  freedom for the oppressed Chinese people.

With working conditions and salaries of the workers there so much lower than workers in the U.S.,the Chinese communists lure foreign businessmen.  

It was cheaper to produce in China than in America or other countries.  That's why so much of our production moved there.  And we stupidly became dependent on Communist China!

The communists never renounced being our enemies.  They spied, copied and stole the West's inventions and innovations, also to our blind eyes.

Now, sadly, we are paying the price.
