NYT disseminating more US propaganda under the guise of journalism. The US has stepped up its propaganda war against China ever since it shot down what was likely an errant weather balloon that strayed off course over the US (for all to see). For the MSM the US official position (''a spy balloon") is simply taken as gospel and so reported. But google the following website, https://www.aerosociety.com/.../chinas-spy-balloon-a.../, for an article by a top expert at the Royal Aeronautical Society in the UK. The fact that this organization is heavily funded by Boeing, part of the US controlled MIC, removes suspicion it is Chinese propaganda. All things considered the Chinese position (errant weather balloon) is more likely true than the US position. Earlier reports in the NYT indicated that the balloon could not have gotten any useful information the Chinese didn't already have from its satellites. So why is the US making a federal case out of this meaningless incident? It is to prepare the mass consciousness of the usually uninformed American people to accept stepped up cold war policies against China and present China as a threat to the US (which has over 700 foreign military bases, many as part of an encirclement program against China, versus China with 1 foreign military base -- in Djibouti to fight piracy around the Horn of Africa). Now the US is warning China not to give military supplies to Russia while it gives whatever it wants to Ukraine. But there are two sides to this war--Russian aggression against Ukraine versus Russian defensive counter-attack against US/NATO aggression against Russia and the Russian population in the Donbas. Which position you take on this issue reflects your views in favor of, or against, US imperialism. China so far has been neutral, only giving non lethal aid to Russia and calling for a negotiated peace so the US is just picking a fight by ''warning" China about what it can and cannot do. These imperial dictates are just what one expects from an Empire to subordinate states. But China is a major country in its own right and will not be dictated to by US imperialism. So the US is starting to play a potentially disastrous game with its saber-rattling with China. So,''Ho. Ho. Biden has got to go''-- the left has to see to it that the next president is a peace president and a pro-labor president not the faux-pro labor hypocrite now in the White House. The best way to defang the Republicans is to run real pro labor and peace candidates, so far as possible with Democrats until we are strong enough to field real socialist candidates.
