Lang Lang the pianist says he chose it. Chairman Hu Jintao recognized it as soon as he heard it. Patriotic Chinese Internet users were delighted as soon as they saw the videos online. Early morning TV viewers in China knew it would be played an hour or two beforehand. At the White House State dinner on Jan. 19, about six minutes into his set, Lang Lang began tapping out a famous anti-American propaganda melody from the Korean War: the theme song to the movie “Battle on Shangganling Mountain.â€

That was really a very undiplomatic move by Lang. Not sure what he was trying to accomplish except piss off the nation that saved China from the Japanese.

He was speaking to the country that China intends to overtake. Just as LaRaza speaks to the country they intend to overtake. Just like CAIR speaks to the country they intend to overtake. It's debatable what language we will be speaking in twenty years. Especially if the likes of the current administration are allowed the free reign they have had.

What they are accomplishing is showing their dominance and ruler-ship over the USA!

The insults and degradations will get worse as the American public learns more about their conquest of our nation.

We know Obama won't say anything negative. Any president with a patriotic heart would have put a moratorium on all Chinese imports expressing congress to pass some friendly/foe import/export bill. See how well the chinese economy thrives with their #1 buyer no longer buying.

The message is clear to everyone in China and all of East Asia. Do not dismiss the piano tune insult. It announces China's real intentions.

China announces its real foreign policy (updated)

In the context of Chinese culture, the state dinner piano tune scandal is a particularly troubling insult -- for what it has announced to the Chinese people. http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/201 ... rican.html Hu and China's leadership have proclaimed the contempt in which they hold America, and in a particularly insidious way. In essence, the message is: "The Americans are so dumb that they don't even know when we insult them in their inner sanctum of power. Laugh at our enemy."

Symbolic gestures such as this are far more significant in Chinese culture than in our own. The very formality of the occasion magnifies the seriousness. It would be a big mistake to dismiss this incident. The message being sent to the Chinese people, China's East Asian neighbors, and the world is unmistakable.

According to Wikileaks documents, Xi Jinping, expected to replace Hu, has been speaking speaking pointedly of "well-fed Americans." http://thecable.foreignpolicy.com/posts ... foreigners This is another slap, and reveals the underlying attitude being propagated among the Chinese: America is fat, lazy, and stupid, and we Chinese are going to put them in their place.

It is now clear that the regime in China is justifying its many faults in the name of a crusade to elevate China by humiliating the United States. Because the regime suppresses news of unrest, we tend to assume its hold on power is unassailable. But the truth is that China has thousands of violent anti-government incidents every year, and that regime itself does not comfort itself that no overthrow is possible. China's history is full of instances of regimes falling due to civil unrest.

It is one thing to assuage the people's pain with the fruits of economic growth, but quite another to adopt a xenophobic crusade to teach the arrogant foreigner a lesson and reclaim the glory of China thereby.

Chinas has now announced that its real policy toward America has nothing to do with seeking harmony and mutual benefit. China intends us harm, and seeks to claim domestic legitimacy on the basis of teaching us a lesson.

Might as well take the message to heart. All the blather to contrary is just eyewash. Know your enemy.

Update: Lawrence Soloman, writing in Canada's Financial Post, agrees with me on China's vulnerability to instability. http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/201 ... %99s-fall/

The Chinese economy today parallels that of the latter-day Soviet Union - immense accomplishments co-existing with immense failures. In some ways, China's stability today is more precarious than was the Soviet Union's before its fall. China's poor are poorer than the Soviet Union's poor, and they are much more numerous - about one billion in a country of 1.3 billion. Moreover, in the Soviet Union there was no sizeable middle class - just about everyone was poor and shared in the same hardships, avoiding resentments that might otherwise have arisen.

In China, the resentments are palpable. Many of the 300 million people who have risen out of poverty flaunt their new wealth, often egregiously so. This is especially so with the new class of rich, all but non-existent just a few years ago, which now includes some 500,000 millionaires and 200 billionaires. Worse, the gap between rich and poor has been increasing. Ominously, the bottom billion views as illegitimate the wealth of the top 300 million.

Legitimacy, we both agree, is the issue. Hu is seeking legitimacy via fighting the well-fed but stupid enemy, America.

China, China, China. Im SICK of CHINA. I'm sick of their crap that breaks as soon as it's out of the box, their lead infested toys, their buying all our land and the fact that they now own us.

What a sad time it is right now that we have a POTUS who bows to dictator Hu, ruler of a country with the WORST human rights record in all of history. By the way, China DOES NOT put their people first....how bad do you think they will be treating us when and if they do take over??

Yept!
We be China's ho.
