These last few days we have seen a masterfully-played hand by China, against the foolish decision of Canadian authorities to play along with a US neocon and ‘Israel first’ game against China.
Canada’s arbitrary arrest of a leading Chinese citizen, Huawei executive Ms Meng Wanzhou, at the request of USA neocons acting behind the back of US President Trump, was an act of pure political malice, violating a number of principles of international law.
And clearly absurd, when no less than 25 other banks and institutions have been ‘violating US sanctions’ and admitted guilt via paying fines, but never suffered any executive arrests. As Columbia University Prof. Jeffrey Sachs has noted, these banks include JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, PayPal, Toronto-Dominion Bank, and Wells Fargo.
China swiftly followed the politically-motivated arrest, on charges threatening Ms Meng with ‘multiple 30-year prison sentences’, with its own swift arrest in China of former Canadian diplomat Michael Kovrig, working for a questionable NGO, the ‘International Crisis Group’, possibly indeed violating Chinese laws in its ‘non-profit’ work.
China in effect said, ‘You want to play the ‘strict application of law’ game? Well, we can play that game, too!’ Plus Chinese boycotts of Canadian goods, leading to Canadian stock share prices sinking …
And all of a sudden a Canadian judge, at first hostile to this Chinese defendant, suddenly found ‘good reasons’ to release Ms Meng on bail … ‘independent judiciary’ of course.
President Trump was reported to be furious after learning of Ms Meng’s arrest, but still felt too weak to immediately order her release, against the neocon and Israel-firsters who seek conflict with China, plus to terrorize the world over Iran sanctions, and to humiliate Trump himself … Trump though is now saying he ‘may intervene’, however, given the shifting winds…
Also in China’s sights now over this affair, is the 20th richest person in the world, Jewish USA political kingmaker Sheldon Adelson, the political controller of the USA’s Republican Party, Bibi Netanyahu’s close friend, and, as China well understands, a major force behind the USA’s anti-Iran policies, and the people who arranged the arrest of Huawei’s Ms Meng Wanzhou
When Adelson decides on whom in the USA to support politically, or whom to destroy, he has two key questions – Will you support Israel? Will you support actions against Iran?
Iran, though a brutal country of stonings, floggings, and slow-torture hangings, is the major rival to Israeli hegemony in the Mid-East, plus the leading nation doing ‘interest-free’ anti-usury Islamic banking, a must-hate country for the neo-con and Rothschild-tied clans.
Anti-Iran Billionaire Sheldon Adelson has been allowed by the Chinese to earn even more billions from gambling casinos in Macau China … leading the Chinese to realize that indulgent relations with Israel, and letting neocon Jewish billionaires earn huge money on Chinese territory, still does not stop Jewish leaders from sponsoring attacks on China
It would not be surprising if, at this very moment, Chinese government inspectors are reviewing their files on ‘violations’ of Chinese and Macau law by Sheldon Adelson’s casinos and hotels
Perhaps Chinese officials may show up soon, and repeat the line of actor Claude Rains’ character in the 1942 film ‘Casablanca‘ -“I’m shocked, shocked, to find that gambling is going on in here!”
