Following the exposé – “Why are Ukrainian Neo-Nazis protesting in Hong Kong?“… Ukrainian neo-Nazi members of the Azov Brigade have arrived in Hong Kong to teach demonstrators there how to use improvised weapons. They’ve been so brazen that they’ve actually been posting updates of their exploits on social media.
Whereby peace activist and scholar on the geopolitics of Asia KJ Noh commented as follows:-
‘Brazen Flaunting of Hatred’: Ukrainian Neo-Nazis Joining Hong Kong Protests ‘Hardly Surprising’
“This is a virulent, neo-Nazi, paramilitary hate group. I mean, they’re really paramilitary shock troops, and I mean we know, it’s well-established, they committed war crimes and torture, including the burning to death of 42 people in Odessa. These are well-known SS tactics, from which they actually get their insignia and their inspiration,” Noh says, noting their similarities to Nazi Germany’s hardcore paramilitary group, the Schutzstaffel.
“This is not about disenfranchised or disgruntled youth. This really is about ethnic separatism, ethnic extremism, ethnic terrorism,”
“I think it’s incumbent on the United States to think deeply whether it really wants to go down that route and whether it really wants to escalate to the point of war. Because this is what we’re facing right now.”
“This is hardly surprising, because the Hong Kong riots already had the markers of racist, fascist terrorism. You know that, you see that by the hate crimes that were committed, but especially, we’ve talked about it before on this show, on Hong Kong University on September 18, the students were celebrating the Mukden, which is like celebrating or glorifying the Holocaust,” Noh said of the 1931 Mukden Incident used by the Japanese Kwantung Army as an excuse to invade northeastern China.
“There have been Pepe the Frog memes; the protesters liberally use the word ‘Shina,’ which is a kind of genocidal, fascist terminology that the Japanese fascists used when they were killing off the Chinese,” he explained. “And of course we see this in the beating and the torturing and killing of innocent bystanders, Mandarin-speakers, all the race-baiting propaganda.”
“You know, the anthem, ‘Glory to Hong Kong,’ is a take-off of ‘Glory to Ukraine.’ And of course one of the leaders, Joshua Wong, sees the Ukraine as a model of liberation. Apparently nobody told him that Ukraine ranks 114th on the Human Freedom Index, and Hong Kong ranks third.”
“Glory to Ukraine” became wildly popular among Ukrainians during Ukrainian War of Independence.
Is “Glory to Hong Kong” supposed to be the anthem of Hong Kong’s “War of Independence” as well?
“But again, as you said, the mere fact that they can enter this country is a validation of Hong Kong’s free, non-interfering system. These neo-Nazis have been banned almost everywhere else; they cannot enter most countries,” Noh told host John Kiriakou.
“What they’ve been doing so far, what they’ve been posting, they’ve been posting pictures of themselves in front of the trashed and destroyed sites that the Hong Kong rioters have destroyed, and they’ve been parading and prancing around and mentioning their solidarity” with the protesters’ struggle, he noted. “Just the mere fact of their presence is an incredible statement … a kind of brazen flaunting of extreme right hatred.”
Noh said US President Donald Trump didn’t want to sign the pair of pro-Hong Kong protester bills passed by Congress late last month, noting that he did so with a signing statement that only promises he will adhere to certain provisions of the bill that don’t interfere with the president’s constitutional authority.
“It has essentially torpedoed the trade negotiations for now,” Noh said, noting that new tariffs will soon enter effect on December 15, only worsening the global economic situation.
“Deeper and beneath” Trump’s immediate protectionist economic concerns are those of the “national security state,” which is populated with “anti-China hawks who only want to escalate the confrontation with China as much as possible,” Noh told Sputnik.
“This is just one part of a larger coordinated system of hybrid warfare” involving both legislative measures and “soft coup activities set up to delegitimize China in every aspect and to take this really into a battle footing,” he said. “This kind of antagonism with China has been war-gamed-out, and we can expect that it will get just fiercer and stronger.”
“And the key thing that we also have to watch out for is in times of war, we know that the first casualty is truth, so we can expect the information warfare to really increase as well.”
Last but not least, a critical commentary from an insider of the Trump’s Admin:-
Foreign intervention in Hong Kong is not a conspiracy theory. The State Department – which is run by Globohomo – has been doing this all over the world for over a decade now, and before that they simply did sloppier jobs.
It is US foreign policy 101 to fund terrorist uprisings in enemy states. Forcing “democracy” on these states is the end game, as this allows for total control through the media, the education system, the financial system and various other institutions that they take over in every country that converts to democracy.
US president has no control over this apparatus of the US government. So whether or not you want to call it “the Deep State” or some other name, it does exist and it is out of the prerogative of the executive branch of US government. It continues doing whatever it is doing regardless of who is president. And installing this virus into foreign countries is part of the agenda of the democracy system.
This ultra-governmental body doesn’t care about Trump’s trade war. In actual fact, they wanted open trade with China. What they really care about is overthrowing the Communist Party of China and replacing it with a puppet government.
This is yet another reason why the Globohomo species should be banned and sanctioned from the Dragonland.
Hong Kong is US versus China
In providing moral support for protesters in Hong Kong who desire the freedoms we enjoy, America is on the right side. But to align the U.S. with the protesters’ cause, and threaten sanctions if their demands are not met, is to lead these demonstrators to make demands that Hong Kong’s rulers cannot meet and China will not allow.
We should ask ourselves some questions before we declare our solidarity with the protesters engaging the Hong Kong police.
If the police crush them, or if China’s army moves in and crushes the demonstrators whose hopes were raised by America’s declared solidarity, then what are we prepared to do to save them and their cause?
Are we willing to impose sanctions on Beijing, such as we have on Venezuela, Iran and Vladimir Putin’s Russia?
Some of us yet recall how the Voice of America broadcast to the Hungarian rebels of 1956 that if they rose up and threw the Russians out, we would be at their side. The Hungarians rose up. We did nothing. And one of the great bloodbaths of the Cold War ensued.
Are we telling the protesters of Hong Kong, “We’ve got your back!” when we really don’t?
Li Ya, A descendant of classic poet Li Bai 李白, got this piece of advise to offer y’all:-
“When in doubt, use your HEAD.”
