Tony CarlucciThe slogans, leaders, and agenda of the "Occupy Central" movement are
supposedly the manifestations of Hong Kong's desire for "total
democracy," "universal suffrage," and "freedom." In reality,
the leaders of "Occupy Central" are verified to be directly backed, funded, and directed by the US State Department, its National Endowment for Democracy (NED), and its subsidiary, the National Democratic Institute (NDI).
Despite admitting this overwhelming evidence, many "Occupy Central"
supporters still insist the protests are genuine and now some propose
that the "Occupy Central" leadership does not truly represent the people
of Hong Kong. While the leadership of "Occupy Central" indeed in no way
represent the people of Hong Kong, the fact still remains that the
protest itself was prearranged at least as early as April 2014, revealed
by "Occupy Central" co-organizers Martin Lee and Anson Chan before NED
in Washington DC.
The talk titled, "
Why Democracy in Hong Kong Matters,"
spanned an hour, with NED regional vice president Louisa Greve leading
the duo through a full introduction of the "Occupy Central" movement,
its characters, agenda, demands, and talking points. Anson Chan - Hong
Kong’s Chief Secretary under British rule - in particular, with her
perfect British accent, insisted repeatedly that the issue was China's
apparent backtracking on "deals" made with the UK over the handover of
Hong Kong in the late 1990's.
Lee, as well as members of the audience, repeatedly stated that Hong
Kong's role was to "infect" mainland China with its Western-style
institutions, laws, and interests. Lee also repeatedly appealed to
Washington specifically to ensure they remained committed to defending
American interests in Hong Kong.
Both Lee and Chan would also state that since China appears to be
concerned over global perception of how it rules its people, this could
be exploited to excise from Beijing concessions over Hong Kong's
governance. This included mention of previous protests, including those
led by "activist" Joshua Wong and his suspicious "Scholarism"
organization that
has been tracked since at least 2012 by the US State Department's NDI. And of course, future destabilization was submitted as a viable solution to bending Beijing toward Western concessions.
For those able to listen to the entire 1 hour interview as well as
questions and answers, the entire "Occupy Central" narrative is laid
bare, verbatim, in Washington DC months before demonstrations began in
the streets of Hong Kong. For a supposed "pro-democracy" protest seeking
self-governance and self-determination and denouncing "interference"
from Beijing, that their leaders are funded by foreign interests, and
the plans for "Occupy Central" laid in a foreign capital is ironic at
best - utter and very intentional deceit at worst.
Democracy indeed assumes self-governance and self determination. If
the US State Department is colluding with, funding, and directing the
politicians and protest leaders behind "Occupy Central," the people of
Hong Kong are governing and determining nothing - Washington and Wall
Street are. Martin Lee and collaborator Anson Chan complain about
Beijing dictating policy in Hong Kong, while they sit together in a room
full of foreign interests who would dictate Hong Kong's governance
instead.
Laid bare is "Occupy Central's" true agenda. It is not about having Hong
Kong vote for who they desire to see in power, it is about getting the
foreign-backed political cabal behind "Occupy Central" into power, and
disarming Beijing of any means to prevent what is for all intents and
purposes the "soft" recolonization of Hong Kong, and a further attempt to divide and destabilize China as a whole.
Terrorism and Turmoil: US Containment of China
With Hong Kong's "Occupy Central" fully exposed as US-backed sedition,
readers should be aware that this latest turmoil is but one part of a
greater ongoing campaign by the United States to contain and co-opt the
nation of China.
As early as the Vietnam War,
with the so-called "Pentagon Papers" released in 1969, it was revealed
that the conflict was simply one part of a greater strategy aimed at
containing and controlling China.
“...the February decision to bomb
North Vietnam and the July approval of Phase I deployments make sense
only if they are in support of a long-run United States policy to
contain China.”
It also claims:
“China—like Germany in 1917, like
Germany in the West and Japan in the East in the late 30′s, and like
the USSR in 1947—looms as a major power threatening to undercut our
importance and effectiveness in the world and, more remotely but more
menacingly, to organize all of Asia against us.”
Finally, it outlines the immense regional theater the US was engaged in against China at the time by stating:
“there are three fronts to a
long-run effort to contain China (realizing that the USSR “contains”
China on the north and northwest): (a) the Japan-Korea front; (b) the
India-Pakistan front; and (c) the Southeast Asia front.”
While the US would ultimately lose
the Vietnam War and any chance of using the Vietnamese as a proxy force
against Beijing, the long war against Beijing would continue elsewhere.
This containment strategy would be updated and detailed in the 2006 Strategic Studies Institute report “
String of Pearls: Meeting the Challenge of China’s Rising Power across the Asian Littoral”
where
it outlines China’s efforts to secure its oil lifeline from the Middle
East to its shores in the South China Sea as well as means by which the
US can maintain American hegemony throughout the Indian and Pacific
Ocean. The premise is that, should Western foreign policy fail to entice
China into participating in Wall Street and London's “international
system” as responsible stakeholders, an increasingly confrontational
posture must be taken to contain the rising nation.
This proxy war has manifested itself
in the form of the so-called "Arab Spring" where Chinese interests have
suffered in nations like Libya that have been reduced to chaos by
US-backed subversion and even direct military intervention. Sudan also serves as a proxy battleground where the West is using chaos to push Chinese interests off the continent of Africa.
Within China itself, the US wields
terrorism as a means to destabilize and divide Chinese society in an
attempt to make the vast territory of China ungovernable. In the
nation's western province of Xianjiang, the United States fully backs violent separatists.
Indeed,
first and foremost in backing the Xinjiang Uyghur separatists is the
United States through the US State Department’s National Endowment for
Democracy (NED). For China, the Western region referred to as
“Xinjiang/East Turkistan” has its own webpage on NED’s site covering the various fronts funded by the US which include:
International Uyghur Human Rights and Democracy Foundation $187,918
To
advance the human rights of ethnic Uyghur women and children. The
Foundation will maintain an English- and Uyghur-language website and
advocate on the human rights situation of Uyghur women and children.
International Uyghur PEN Club $45,000
To promote freedom
of expression for Uyghurs. The International Uyghur PEN Club will
maintain a website providing information about banned writings and the
work and status of persecuted poets, historians, journalists, and
others. Uyghur PEN will also conduct international advocacy campaigns on
behalf of imprisoned writers.
Uyghur American Association $280,000
To raise awareness of
Uyghur human rights issues. UAA’s Uyghur Human Rights Project will
research, document, and bring to international attention, independent
and accurate information about human rights violations affecting the
Turkic populations of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.
World Uyghur Congress $185,000
To enhance the ability of
Uyghur prodemocracy groups and leaders to implement effective human
rights and democracy campaigns. The World Uyghur Congress will organize a
conference for pro-democracy Uyghur groups and leaders on interethnic
issues and conduct advocacy work on Uyghur human rights.
It
should be noted that the above list was taken from NED's website in
March 2014 - since then, NED has deleted several organizations from the
list, as it has done previously regarding its support in other nations
ahead of intensified campaigns of destabilization it wished to cover up
its role in.
All of these NED-funded organizations openly advocate separatism
from China, not even recognizing China’s authority over the region to
begin with – referring to it instead as “Chinese occupation.”
Of the March 2014 terror attack in Kunming,
the US-funded World Uyghur Congress would even attempt to justify it by
claiming Chinese authorities have left the separatists with little
other choice. The
US State Department’s “Radio Free Asia” report titled, “
China’s Kunming Train Station Violence Leaves 33 Dead,” reported:
World Uyghur Congress spokesman
Dilxat Raxit said in an emailed statement that there was “no
justification for attacks on civilians” but added that discriminatory
and repressive policies provoked “extreme measures” in response.
From full-blown proxy wars in the 1960's spanning Southeast Asia, to the US-engineered "Arab Spring" in 2011,
to terrorism in Xinjiang and turmoil in Hong Kong today - what is
taking place is not a battle for "democracy" or "freedom of expression,"
but an existential battle for China's sovereignty. For whatever
problems the Chinese people have with their government, it is their
problem and theirs alone to solve in their own way. Using the promotion
of "democracy" as cover, the US would continue its attempts to infect
China with US-backed institutions and policies, subvert, co-opt, or
overthrow the political order in Beijing, and establish upon its ashes
its own neo-colonial order serving solely Wall Street and Washington's
interests - not those of the Chinese people.
For the mobs of "Occupy Central,"
many have good intentions, but the leadership is knowingly in league
with foreign interests seeking to subvert, divide, and destroy the
Chinese people - not unlike what China had suffered at the hands of
European powers in the 1800's to early 1900's.
