Xinjiang Province: News & Discussions

Obscure? Who mentioned that?

US-China war 'inevitable' unless Washington drops demands over South China Sea - Telegraph



By simply mentioning the quoted part, the telegraph is linking the GT's opinion with the govt's.

Global Times, a tabloid newspaper run by the Communist Party,

I think that sums things up.
Best Tabloid Headlines Ever

I guess this sums things up about the Western media:

WSJ:

“Among seven areas that Syrian state media listed as targets of Russian strikes, only one—an area east of the town of Salamiyah in Hama province—has a known presence of Islamic State fighters. The other areas listed are largely dominated by moderate rebel factions or Islamist groups, such as Ahrar al-Sham and the al Qaeda-affiliated Nusra Front.”

So, do not anticipate anything more from them. And this is not surprising at all. They are the mouthpieces of the regime they represent even though they are privately held.

Exactly. The telegraph used the "tabloid" source to imply an ultimatum was given by the Chinese govt to the US govt.

I guess the same ''foreign terrorists'' they were forcefully stopping from fasting in the month of ramadhan and breaking their fasts with water. In fact they banned fasting even India has never done this. Forcefully cutting beards and stopping women from wearing veils. Speaks volumes!

China bans Ramadan fasting in mainly Muslim region - Al Jazeera English

Where are the Pakistani brothers??? If this was done by Indians we would have had a horde of people. Shame on you!

Not bad, the 8th post and the inevitable reference to India.

' Pakistani brothers' will have nothing to say to an ' all weather' friend till the weather changes & the weather is changing the world over.

A look at the map in the OP will show how vulnerable China is going to be once the CPEC opens up. They will get a lot more than just goods from Gwadar.

Russia Approves Use of Armed Forces in Syria
"“We’re talking exclusively about operations of Russia’s Air Force, as our president has already said, the use of armed forces on the ground theater of military operations is excluded. The military goal of the operations is exclusively air support of the Syrian government forces in their fight against the Islamic State,” Ivanov said."

After saying that they don't even bomb them.

"Former President Jimmy Carter said recently that he provided maps of Islamic State positions in Syria to the Russian embassy in Washington,"

He is too ashamed to reply. American is a bunch of liars. From Iraq WMD, to Gaddaffi threat and now to Syria,Russia bomb hospital and children only but no ISIS, how much death and destruction has US created?

US is the root of World Evil.

And not just that.

The regime-backed US media even twists stories when it is required for the state interests.

Just take a look at this:

I guess these are usual reactions of a world hegemon that is so used to defy international law and customs, and interpret them as they fit to its own interests, but now is facing certain repercussions and resistance to its free rein.

They can handle disobey like they did with Saddam, Gaddafi or any democratically elected governments of Latin America etc. But, they know find out they can handle equal or superior powers like Russia and China.

Hence the long established facade of Western freedom, media independence, respect for international law and regulations is falling down.

A reactionary turns fascist when it faces resistance and blowback. That's a universal rule from the 1940s Europe to the 1960s Latin America.

This is not about peoples, I believe. This is about regimes. Peoples are often and in majority the victims of hegemonic policies. So, it is perhaps better to confine our debate to the regimes and their public figureheads, rather than peoples and their customs.

As for Russian air strikes in Syria, they are doing an excellent job.

Russian airstrikes destroy 472 terrorist targets in Syria in 48 hours, 1,000 oil tankers in 5 days — RT News

Russia targets terrorists with no quotation marks.

US has so far been soft on ISIS (contain it rather than destroy) and extremely friendly to non-ISIS terrorists, as the WSJ article I quoted above demonstrates.

The Western media is one big mouth that tries to save the moderate terrorists from the wrath of Putin. Hence they put up maps like this:



This is not entirely incorrect. Russia targets ISIS where it is the most vulnerable and the target is valuable.

For example, Russia destroyed about 1000 oil tankers carrying ISIS oil to Turkey and other areas. US did not target them. US targeted refineries which are the properties of the Syrian government.

ISIS often repaired the minimal damage and continued operations. Hence the oil money continued to flow. This is the story of the past one-two years.

Russia intensifies attacks on the West of Euphrates. This border area are held by US-Turkey-Qatar supporter cocktail of terrorists, mostly foreign. This area is the lifeline of ISIS. Because East of Euphrates is already under Kurdish control.

Russia knows, cut the ISIS supply lines from the border areas, and then slowly slaughter them inside Syria through merciless militia of Hezbollah and other fighters.

Again, Russia targets terrorists regardless of their color.

US targets "terrorists," having classified them according to their moderation, that is, the length of their beard, deng deng.

The above map, thus, reflects the thinking of the US regime and its allies. The US media mouthpieces parrot the state line.

He may have been misinformed. The so called "ban" is not meant for Muslin general public, it was meant for Communist Party Members. Once a person becomes CPC member, he has to give up his religious freedom, and it is a privileged to be a CPC member. Officially, communism is THE faith for all CPC members, I hope our Pakistan friends can understand this point.

Did you watch the whole video as to why the US hasn't been bombing the trucks? The people driving the trucks are not ISIS. They are local civilians. ISIS isn't smuggling the oil. They are selling it for a discount right at the pump to locals who then in turn look for buyers. The US has been bombing the pumps and not the trucks.

This is like how gasoline was shipped to Afghanistan through Pakistan using Pakistani civilian drivers. They were just trying to make a living. They could care less about NATO or the Taliban.

 

[TaiShang]

It is interesting that the US regime mouthpiece attempts to steal the success of Russian airforce in destroying trucks that provides what the IS needs most: Money.

And recently, US is also all about hitting the oil tankers. LOL.

So much for humanism.

The U.S. military recently claimed to have hit Islamic State oil tankers in Syria. This only after Putin embarrassed Obama at the G-20 meeting in Turkey.
