[Music] hello I am Peter Lee for News buds China watch this week on China watch goodbye Russia gate hello China gate there's a new kid in town as of March 25th 2019 the Committee on the present danger China it is the creature of crypto-fascist strategist Steve Bannon and it's a sign that Republicans conservatives populist whatever you want to call them expect to ride the China threat2/45
wave over the carcasses of the Democrats and into the White House for another four years of Donald Trump also in this episode how an incurable disease is remaking the pig industry in China and around the world and why does its path lead to a bioweapons laboratory on Russia's southern border and April 11th is the anniversary of one of the most important inflection points in modern history3/45
but one that is virtually unknown in the West it was the date a conspiracy to start a war between the United States and China was stopped in its tracks first let's take a look at the Committee on the present danger China otherwise known by its initials as C P DC it's also known as CPD for since previous iterations attacked the Soviet Union twice and terrorism once4/45
by a funny coincidence every iteration of the committee for the present danger shaped the debate in favor of confrontation or military spending and also the whole CEL employment of CPD committee members into the presidential administration yes China's right there in the name in capital letters to alert the general public that we shouldn't be worried about global warming crumbling infrastructure and out-of-control military deepening social division or5/45
the struggle between stagnating global liberalism and resurgent fascism now we're supposed to worry about China because China unlike all those other problems is what's going to pay to put the kids of arms merchants pundits and politicians through college and quite possibly put Donald Trump back in the White House for a second term yes the full molar report isn't out yet but it looks like the Russia6/45
Gate conspiracy frenzy that the Democrats stoked for two years is gonna burn out without burning up Donald Trump and the Republicans are ready to bring an even bigger fire to burn down the Democrats the fire this time China as the chairman of the CPD C Brian Kennedy put it media and half our political system have spent the last two years pursuing allegations of Russian collusion that7/45
turned out to be baseless this is especially ridiculous when one considers the array of threats posed by the People's Republic of China the CPD C roster is interesting that's because it includes a clutch of right-wing dingbats looking for a profitable pivot from the anti-terrorist grift to the anti China grift people like Frank Gaffney and my god is bigger than your God anti Islam warrior general Jerry8/45
Boykin but it also includes longtime China regime change activists like Bob foo and young Jen Lee and it also is chock-a-block with right-wing anti-common thews iasts like ex CIA director james woolsey mark stoke he's the deck you t'v director of the ultra hawk project 2049 thing too and Captain James fennel the former director of intelligence and information operations US Pacific Fleet who served as the point9/45
man for the strategy to confront and isolate China in the Pacific there's also a smattering of respectable China hawk scholars like Arthur Waldron and well Arthur Waldron the only thing the CP DC doesn't have is Democrats that's because the Committee on the present danger China is Steve bannon's baby yes Steve Benin the fascism friendly strategist whose canny mix of entirely populism racial dog whistling and media10/45
manipulation put Donald Trump in the White House it's long been clear at least a viewers of China watch that Bannon intends to ride the China threat horse to restore his influence and respectability in Washington and also leadership in the political and electoral councils of Donald Trump and hey it's working Orville Schell something of a liberal gatekeeper for respectable China policy told the New York Times many11/45
analysts would have totally rejected and two years ago but people are more sympathetic now that engagement with China has been defrocked on the China question he is no longer the skunk at the party well Orville Schell apparently found the stink intoxicating because he recently jumped on the China threat skunk wagon and provided the white shoe template for witch hunts in a khadeem and the media entitled12/45
Chinese influence in American interests promoting constructive vigilance so hmm liberal imperialism and populist fascism unite to confront a communist state who'd a thunk it well the Democrats thunk it the mantra for the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton era holdovers is that the Democrats will always run to the right on foreign policy and not get outflanked by the Republicans be it on the topics of terrorism13/45
Israel Russia or China China especially because the Clintons were rather effectively tagged with the corrupted China appeaser tag during Bill Clinton's presidency and Hillary Clinton vigorously ran in the opposite direction for two decades but here's my prediction when it comes to running a red baiting campaign the Republicans will eat the Democrats lunch the Republicans are going to go straight for the red meat and the blood14/45
and guts Steve Bannon has already announced that the Committee on the present danger China will feature a frontal assault on of all things the financial industry for complicity in an engagement driven China policy at the CPD sees Washington launch ban and declared all the McKinsey guys all the Booz Allen with guys all the law firms all the accounting firms goldman sachs my own firm all of15/45
the commercial banks all of them know about the Chinese government's policies towards weaker and Christians and other religious minorities and the enslavement of the Chinese people Steve Bannon accuses us firms of selling out amid enslavement of the Chinese people for bannon's brand of populism it doesn't hurt that there are a lot of people that don't like the financial industry and also think it's run by Jews16/45
answering the call Ted Cruz made an appearance at the CB DC conference and channeled read Bader Joe McCarthy by calling out pro-china apologists in the US government and media the senator criticized pro-beijing officials in government and the news media for perpetuating communist rule in China the apologists for the Chinese Communists we have in the media that we have sadly in Congress are not advancing the cause17/45
of peace are not advancing the cause of human rights they are not advancing the cause of truth by hiding the truth he said Newt Gingrich who previously held the post of master GOP strategist echoed Cruz very much as we had to get organized in the 30s to stop unamerican activities we're going to go through the same cycle here enjoy the cycle Democrats and expect it to18/45
be just like the 1950s when Republicans pounded Democrats as disloyal appeasers of the Soviet Union all in all I seriously doubt Democrats are going to be able to run right of Steve Bannon and Ted Cruz and Newt Gingrich to stay out in front on the China threat as to where Trump and his reelection fit in been instated no one to date has gotten to the right19/45
of Trump on China and Steve Bannon intends to keep it that way but there's one conspicuous name missing from the Committee on the present danger China roster that's miles Kwok miles Kwok the Chinese billionaire klepto patriot exiled from China frequently featured on China watch and determined to bring down his numerous enemies in the CCP with the help of the United States the US media and Steve20/45
Bannon Kwok has apparently acquired a significant Rove of embarrassing tittle-tattle about the corruption and misdeeds of top Chinese communist leaders his dalliance with the New York Times stumbled but he has entered into a full-blown partnership with Steve Bannon how full-blown how about miles Clark has promised to donate 1 billion dollars more to the rule of law fund the rule of law of fund is bannon's organization21/45
dedicated to the global victory of judeo-christian civilization as for why it's 1 billion dollars more Clark claims he has donated 100 million dollars to the fund already - quacks thinking has apparently evolved beyond his previously stated goal of simply destroying his detested enemy Wan Chi shun now the vice president of the PRC who he characterized as a cancer on the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese22/45
nation now croc wishes to destroy both Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party itself which brings him more in line with Steve bannon's philosophy as to why he wants to gift Benin with his Millions it's so Kwok has a domineering voice in the agenda of the committee on the present danger China Kwok apparently has some difficulty at the moment in reconciling his objectives with the current23/45
ambition of the Committee on the present danger China which sees no problem in shattering China and not just the Chinese Communist Party to remove a troublesome challenger to American hegemony a pro Kwok media outlet described a recent meeting between miles Kwok and Steve Bannon to massage this awkward contradiction we solemnly and officially declare that we shall never cooperate with any organization or share intelligence with them24/45
if they act against China or the Chinese people the aim of the CPD is to demolish the evil group of the CCP and bring the state traitors to justice we are not going to do any harm to the ordinary Chinese people Steve been and agreed with Miles that the common Chinese people are hardworking and kind-hearted people well 100 million dollars and the promise of a billion25/45
more would also convince me of the kind heartedness of the Chinese people at least some of them Kwok is quite frank about his desire for leverage over the CPVC and it looks like miles dream is to rebrand the Committee on the present danger China as the Committee on the present danger the Chinese Communist Party miles quark said he's committed to donating another 1 billion US dollars26/45
to the rule of law fund adding that without sufficient financial support the fund would not be strong enough in its cooperation with organizations like the Committee on the present danger to fight the Chinese Communist Party good luck with that does Miles Kwok really have a billion dollars safely out of China and can a single Chinese billionaire redirect the China threat juggernaut that is designed to return27/45
Donald Trump the white house and shower hundreds of billions of dollars on the US military industrial think tank media complex for a generational war with China well let's see if mile squak is going to run Steve Bannon or the other way around either way China war is going to be at the top of the agenda [Music] next up swine fever as the US beltway obsesses on28/45
its China threat calculations the global pig industry and the global agricultural economy are being transformed by a lethal virus African swine fever or a SF a SF is not transmittable to humans but the current form of the virus is absolutely lethal to pigs and highly contagious and it is sweeping through China the Chinese Pig raising industry is being remade as the government has quarantine districts and29/45
banned shipments of pigs in order to contain the virus Chinese pig production will drop up to 40% as pig farmers slaughter hogs they can't ship or sell since pig farming relied on imported soybean meal for feed and feed imports are going to drop China's ability to import massive amounts of American agricultural products a key source of Chinese leverage in the trade war is under threat but30/45
on the other hand China will be buying a lot more u.s. pork though there's no way the u.s. can fill the PRC pork hole by itself so there's that the virus is extremely robust and can survive for extended periods outside of a live host and inside pork products that's including the animal feed in which most pig blood shows up the threat of swine fever from China31/45
to Taiwan's pork industry has become a political talking point for the anti PRC Taiwanese government and media even the 20:19 world pork Expo in Des Moines Iowa in the United States was canceled out of an abundance of caution as the organizers put it it looks like the Chinese pig industry which has almost 700 million hogs and produces half the world spork will turn its back on32/45
the small mom-and-pop producer that formed the backbone of the industry in favor of massive industrial facilities that can invest the money in the procedures and equipment to manage the biohazard and also generate giant reeking lagoons of pig excrement a million tons of feces in an unbearable stench life near industrial pig farms well that's what progress smells like in the pig industry the Chinese government is pushing33/45
the narrative that it's got a handle on the epidemic but according to a US delegation that visited in March that's not the case African swine fever is very bad there are reported cases all across the country but many cases are not reported they have found the disease and sausage and processed meat and in dumplings although the government repeatedly tells consumers that it has nothing to do34/45
with health of the human people are still concerned pork consumption is going down African swine fever is uncontrollable it has spread from China to Vietnam and will likely soon be in Thailand South Korea and Japan the situation in China is much worse than four months ago why you can't believe what China says about African swine fever well where did this menace come from the immediate answer35/45
is African swine flu came into China from the north from Russia before Russia it ravaged the Baltic States in Poland leading to the restructuring of the pig industry up there and before that it came from the Caucasus and the trail ends or starts in Georgia maybe the African swine fever were all worried about was held in a government lab in Georgia and got out with a36/45
little help from the violently anti Russian government of Mikhail Saakashvili back in 2012 when ASF was just a little regional blip that had been roiling the Caucasus for five years since 2007 the Russian Consumer Protection Agency blamed Georgia for releasing the virus ASF came to us from Georgia first of course to a sisha and then to the Krasnodar and Stavropol regions there are signs that this37/45
situation is artificially injected it is economic sabotage well the Russians might know more than a little about African swine flu the African swine fever that made its way from Georgia through Russia to the Baltics and Poland amount to China and Asia is genetically different from the previous outbreak which was traced to exchanges between Portugal and it's angle and colony in the 1950s the Georgian outbreak that38/45
occurred in 2007 is related to a version of the virus first identified in South East Africa in the 1970s to be specific Mozambique and Zambia with Mozambique a major Soviet client at the time Soviet agricultural experts worked extensively on aid projects in Mozambique maybe Soviet scientists collected some samples of the local swine fever variant with hopes of developing a vaccine the as yet unattainable holy grail39/45
of ASF researchers to this day but maybe the Soviet bureaucracy had a better idea and the samples were transferred to the Soviet bioweapons program to be genetically modified for increased lethality and put into the Arsenal it's known that by the 1980s the Soviet Union developed a second-generation asf bioweapon in its so-called ecology program for agricultural warfare and maybe some of that engineer to have her consoie40/45
flu was held in Georgia when Georgia was a piece of the Soviet Union and Georgia was part of the Soviet biological warfare system producing anti livestock biological weapons as well as veterinary vaccines at multiple facilities and maybe some of that ended up in the labs of independent post-soviet Georgia under the administration of pro-american Russian hating dingbat entrepreneur saakashvili and somehow found its way into the wild41/45
well on to the hog farms of Russia and its allies so is the catastrophe in Eurasian Pig raising actually blowback from the Soviet biological weapons program courtesy of Mikhail Saakashvili could be and consider this after the fall of the Soviet Union the US military didn't help the government of newly independent Georgia destroy its stocks of dangerous pathogens and help preserve them through the establishment of Georgia's42/45
repository for dangerous pathogens the bizarrely named pathogen asset control system which is now maintained at a US funded facility in Tbilisi the Richard Lugar Center for Public Health Research think about that as you chew on your tofu pork chop [Music] finally to paraphrase Franklin Roosevelt April 11 the 1951 8:00 date that will live in obscurity that is if the US Navy has anything to say about43/45
it April 11th 1951 was the date Douglas MacArthur tried to widen the Korean War into China by sending a US Navy destroyer the john bull into harm's way off the chinese coast to provoke a chinese attack and trigger retaliation by a u.s. task force lurking over the horizon it was also the date President Harry Truman pulled the plug on the mission and Douglas MacArthur himself by44/45
relieving MacArthur of all of his commands nowadays China Hawks would probably say Truman's shafted MacArthur and betrayed the United States by throwing away America's best chance to strangle the red Chinese dragon in its cradle decide for yourself by buying or renting my documentary on Douglas MacArthur's secret conspiracy to start a war with China which features first-person testimony by participants in the mission and never-before-seen documents look
