Dan Warnick + 6,100 December 5, 2020 Quote: Sky News host Chris Smith says the Chinese communist regime has “disgraced themselves in front of the world” after posting a doctored picture of an Australian soldier holding a knife to a child’s neck. “The Chinese Communist Party and its regressive government have outdone themselves,” Mr Smith said. The doctored image – which has not been censored by Twitter despite being faked – were published by China’s foreign ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian who said he was “shocked by murder of Afghan civilians & prisoners by Australian soldiers”. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frankfurter + 562 ff December 5, 2020 well let's see... 1/ Aussie soldiers murdered innocent civilians in cold blood. Those citizens never committed any aggression against Australia. This is a crime by any standard. 2/ When the French posted cartoons, graphics and narratives depicting Muslims as murderers, every western country, including Australia, considered this to be freedom of speech and of the press. Now when a Chinese person, independent of China govt, posts a similar graphic depicting the vile murderous behaviour of aussies, somehow this is to be condemned and is not freedom of expression nor of the press. hmmm 3/ Americans have blocked imports from China, imposed tariffs, banned products and companies, invoked sanctions, frozen bank accounts and stolen the cash, arrested key executives, and more, and all this is considered good practices. Yet when China decides to add tariffs or cease imports from Australia, this is somehow an evil practice. hmmm 4/ Australia has joined forces with USA to intimidate and antagonise China, sailed warships into China waters, yet expects no retaliation. hmmm The crying and wailing by the Australian government and media is pathetic to see and hear. Aussies have only themselves to blame. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boat + 1,325 RG January 2, 2021 I have long Complained about Trump and all presidents going back to GW senior that we do little to force China/Russia to act within international fairness. The key is international cooperation on a set of standards enforced by trade restrictions. Without trade China and Russia pose much less of a threat over time. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
