Since the Joe Biden administration released its National Security Strategy report in October 2022, the United States has piled on harsh measures to contain China. It has been protracting and intensifying competition with China, including through its recent move to escalate the chip war. The U.S. actions point to a "new Cold War" unilaterally launched by Washington against Beijing. This is a move against the trend of time.
A "new Cold War" is against the will of U.S. society
Over the years, U.S. society has been plagued by myriad problems, especially political polarization, which has long been a source of trouble. Faced with political deadlock, economic inflation and social grievances, politicos from both the Democratic and Republican parties have no capability or even the will to really solve them. Instead, they are trying to shift the internal pressure by hyping up the external "threat" – China.
That said, U.S. entrepreneurs have shown through their actions that they will not buy it. Since the beginning of this year, a slew of U.S. executives has visited China to explore cooperation opportunities. Starbucks' new global CEO Laxman Narasimhan highlighted China's huge market potential; Tesla CEO Elon Musk expressly stated his opposition to decoupling and cutting supply chains; Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang made clear that they don't have a contingency for decoupling, and stressed that "there is only one China." All these speak volumes about the unique appeal of the Chinese market which embraces openness, fairness and win-win cooperation.
As for the American people, though China and the U.S. are far apart geographically, the friendly exchanges between the two countries enjoy a long and rich history. Countless moving stories stand as the evidence: the history of the Flying Tigers during World War II, the story of "Kuliang Friends" in east China's Fujian Province, and the Sino-U.S. friendship house in Muscatine, Iowa. The list goes on. State-to-state relations are ultimately people-to-people relations. It's time the U.S. government listened to the voices of the American and Chinese people.
A "new Cold War" is against the interests of the world
Since the outbreak of the Ukraine crisis, European countries followed the U.S. in launching unprecedented sanctions against Russia, which backfired and intensified their own energy crisis and inflation woes. There have since been signs that European countries are starting to rethink its relationship with China. French President Emmanuel Macron publicly opposed the "NATO-ization" of the Asia-Pacific region; EU member states such as Germany, Hungary and Serbia have all made it clear that they will not "decouple" from China.
Unhappy with the U.S. dollar hegemony, Brazil reached an agreement with China to use Chinese yuan for trade; ASEAN countries decided to increase the use of the Chinese currency in settlement; Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim proposed to China that an "Asian Monetary Fund" be established to reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar. As a Chinese saying goes, a just cause enjoys great support, while an unjust cause gains little traction. The U.S. strategy to encircle China through a "new Cold War" is nothing but an illusion.
A "new Cold War" is based on the misjudgment of the U.S.
The fundamental reason for the current difficulties in China-U.S. relations lies in the strategic misjudgment towards China from the U.S., which has in turn led to a wrong China policy. China always believes that the two countries should get along on the basis of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation.
"Planet Earth is big enough to accommodate the respective development and common prosperity of China and the U.S.," Chinese President Xi Jinping told U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in June. History has repeatedly proven that China and the U.S. can join hands to achieve many great things for the benefit of both countries and the world. Cooperation between the biggest developing country and the biggest developed country can go a long way towards maintaining world peace and stability and contribute to various global causes. For the two countries, there is much potential for future cooperation on a wide range of global issues.
There are too many reasons for the two big elephants in a jungle to live and grow peacefully and make the jungle a better place. The U.S. needs to stop paying only lip service to the need to manage crisis and prevent confrontation. It's time to walk the talk. (Source:CGTN)
But is it a phoney-war?
"As a result, China may now control the world’s largest stockpile of oil, with total crude inventories estimated at 950 million barrels," they added.

Similarly, war criminal, The Donald, imposed a chip blockade on Huawei, BUT gave Huawei 8 months to stockpile chips. In other words, it was an excuse for Huawei to pay extortionate prices to stockpile chips that were about to become obsolete. Huawei then split off Honor and bought krappy amerikan Qualcomm chips. Now they're ostensibly restricting Nvidia chips to China. But Huawei's Ascend 910, which SMIC can produce at 7nm already monopolises China's AI.
Now India has blocked rice exports similar to how she and Russia blocked grain exports for a year several years ago, so that the Great Satan could steal market share. Saudi Arabia also ramped up oil exports not for maximum profit, but for "market share". This was to force other oil exporters to shut down production and allow the Great Satan's shale, which can be ramped up much faster than traditional oil, to thieve market share. War criminal, Obama, also converted LNG terminal for export rather than import and lifted the decades long ban on exports of crude oil from the land they thieved.
In other words, it's all a phoney war to hide the fact that, as Mark Carney said of the English Patient, the Great Satan is "dependent on the kindness of strangers"; a useless genocidal parasite and pathetic loser. Just look at how Mohamed El-Erian, Janet Yellen and Larry Summers have all decried Fitch's down-grading of the Great Satan, when, as Marc Faber correctly stated years ago, Great Satan bonds were "already junk". As the former Yob Gear moron said of Poodleville: "Pathetic!"
So the above China-Threat scaremongering is really the Great Satan's goons & thugs showing ZERO GRATITUDE, in order to hide the fact that they're so corrupt and incompetent that the Great Satan is now so bankrupt, insolvent and desperate that they're robbing their own sheeple on the highways with "civil asset forfeiture", extorting cash out of Toyota with the bogus pedal fault; Volkswagen with the "diesel cheat device"; BNP Paribas and ZTE with accusations of violating Great Satan illegal sanctions on Iran etc. and extorting cash out of the EU vassals by selling arms and Lucifer Natural Gas at three times the price Great Satan industry is paying.
The Anglo/Jew gangsters will ALWAYS be at war until they wipe themselves out. Marshall Auerbach has complained that Gina Raimondo's dirty-tricks policies is "capitulation"; admitting they can't compete. But they can't!
"Donald Trump called former US president Jimmy Carter to discuss fear China is ‘getting way ahead’ of US"
When the English are worse at English than the Chinese, you know you’re in trouble.
- SATs aren't damaging kids — low expectations are
One anecdotal story will illustrate my point. At a recent international math competition among high-school students, the US team beat the team from China for first place. But the “upset” win can be attributed to the fact that every member of the US team was ethnic Chinese, students whose parents had immigrated to the US from China.
- Biden’s China obsession could be the undoing of America
After five centuries of the poodle empire of plundering (which they attribute to the "industrial revolution"), they started both World Wars to impose jew-confetti on the planet at Genoa in 1922, then Bretton Woods in 1944. These gold/FX exchange standards were inherently fraudulent, whereby only the Great Satan (and poodle at Genoa) could print paper funny-money out of thin-air, which other nations had to hold as reserves rather than gold. In the years since, they've only used this "exorbitant privilege" to breed themselves dumber and dumberer as both the Great Satan and poodle admit. Poodleville is the land of privilege, run by robber-barons such as king Charlie, who's family hasn't done a lick of work in a millenia, with princess Diana rebelling against this evil, which imprisons Julian Assange, but awards a knighthood to convicted war criminal Tony Blair.
In fact, three centuries after Bernoulli noticed a correlation between air-speed and lift in an aerofoil, we have a clown with a PhD at NASA trying to explain how an aerofoil works and getting it wrong, failing to understand that correlation or even congruence does not necessarily mean causation. I worked out how an aerofoil works with no training in fluid mechanics, because it's COMMON SENSE. THIS is how dumberer they are. The "first time the mail-boat was a day late" they LITERALLY started eating one another. They peddle a moron, such as Albert Einstein, as a genius. Yet simple thought-experiments that a CHILD can understand confirm that everything he postulated is not only nonsense, but absurd nonsense. Yet this patent office clerk became a professor and celebrated genius, who's BS theories have become depicted in science-fiction such as worm-holes, black holes and faster than light travel etc.
US will do anything to contain and break China, hence it is wrong to say that US dare not push for Cold War II. The only reason US isn't pressing this button is because this is not a suitable choice at this moment. Conditions can change. Maybe US is already working to achieve such a condition. When the situation permits, US will start Cold War II. China shouldn't over-comfort itself. China is still behind US in many aspects. China should urge its people to become a comprehensive self-sufficient country for itself.
