Steve Bannon and Miles Quo

Steve Bannon, President Trump's former advisor, was arrested on fundraising fraud charges in a US$35 million luxurious yacht in Connecticut. __________________________________________________ Guess who is the owner of the yacht? It is Guo Wen Qui [ 郭文貴 ], a.k.a. Miles Guo. Guo is the wealthy but corrupted Chinese billionaire businessman and fugitive wanted by the Chinese Government. He is an anti-Chinese-Communist-Party [CCP/CPC] activist and anti-China traitor. He supported the political riots and color revolution orchestrated by the CIA against China in Hong Kong last year. He got caught video talking to an anti-China HK political figure Leung Chung Hung [梁頌恒]，assuring Leung that he had close connection with high-level US political establishment [Bannon et al] and would provide all necessary political and financial support to bring down the CCP and to separate HK from China. __________________________________________________ Guo and Bannon have a close financial and political relationship against the CCP and China. Bannon is one of the China-bashing leaders in the US. He even remotely directed the political riots and color revolution in Hong Kong last year. __________________________________________________ Would Bannon go to jail? What do you think? __________________________________________________ Edi Lee for Peace *** Fast Edi Thoughts and Comments

China / US Tit for Tat

China's consulate in Houston, Texas has some 60 workers. Being forced to close it on short notice of only 72 hours, China retaliated by ordering the US to close its consulate in Chengdu. ___________________________________________________ In Hong Kong, the US consulate has thousands of workers. If you insist that a consulate is usually also a center of espionage, then you must say that the US consulate in Hong Kong is the super American spy center in the world. And it is. Since the National Security Law came into effect, I heard the number of staff members has been reduced. ___________________________________________________ There are 85,000 Americans living and working in Hong Kong. Besides the US consulate workers, CIA agents in HK would take the cover roles of being a teacher, journalist, news reporter, merchant, NGO worker, etc. etc. But you know what their real work is. Many Hongkongers would like to see the US consulate in HK closed. ___________________________________________________ Edi Lee for Peace *** Fast Edi Thoughts and Comments

To wear or not to wear?

To wear or not to wear? That's the question in fighting the Corona virus. Not only an issue of wearing a mask or not, just about any issue big or small would provoke American fights and arguments. ___________________________________________________ This used-to-be great country called the 'United' States of America has become very 'divisive'. It is no longer united. No thanks to Trump and his gangster-like but worse administration, America is not becoming great again. Instead, Trump is quickening the decline and possible collapse of the US of A. Trump is not making America great again. He with his China-bashing team has been trying to stop or slow down China's becoming great again. ___________________________________________________ Not only has the US become very divisive and unstable, so has the world. Whether you are in America or not, tough time is lying ahead. Take care! ___________________________________________________ Edi Lee for Peace *** Fast Edi Thoughts and Comments

National Security Law

Since the National Security Law came into effect, Hong Kong is no longer a freewheeling spy center of the world. Domestic and foreign anti-China forces in HK can no longer 'freely' operate and make troubles and chaos to separate HK from China. __________________________________________________ The year-long US led political riots and color revolution against China almost destroyed HK. The 'One Country Two Systems' has survived, but the wishful thinking to turn China and HK into 'Two Countries Two Systems' has failed. __________________________________________________ Hong Kong is an inseparable part of China. It was all anti-China political BS to deny this fact. It was futile trying to make HK independent. It would and did fail. __________________________________________________ Cancellation or suspension of extradition agreements by some countries with HK is not surprising. Nor is it surprising that the National Security Law came into effect. Certainly the anti-China separatists and foreign spies don't like it, but there are millions of Hongkongers who cheered and celebrated that the Chinese Government has finally come to their rescue. They have had enough of the violent, destructive and terrifying riots. Law and order are being restored. They now feel safe to wave the China flag and sing China's national anthem without fear of being beaten up by the anti-China thugs and separatists. __________________________________________________ Beware that the National Security Law has taken away one's 'freedom' to commit serious crimes of secession, sedition, terrorism, and collusion with external powers to endanger the security of HK, China. Freedom is not absolute and unlimited. It doesn't include the 'freedom' to commit a crime without paying for the consequence. __________________________________________________ All countries have national security laws. The US has more than 20 such legislations. Yet China may not pass a national security law to protect the sovereignty and security of China including HK which is part of China? Why only talk about some 20 plus Western countries against this National Security Law but ignore some 50 plus countries at UN which support it? What right do foreign countries have to tell a country, in this case China, not to pass a national security law to protect itself? Can I tell you to leave your doors wide open to 'freely' let the strangers, thieves, burglars, spies and criminals of all kinds come into your home?

US / China Relations

The US / China relations at the present are very bad. It does no good to the people of both countries, even negatively affects the whole world. Some countries are caught between the two super powers having a hard time deciding in which direction to move. __________________________________________________ Edi Lee for Peace *** Fast Edi Thoughts and Comments

Hong Kong Question (2): What does Free Hong Kong mean?

Regarding 'Free Hong Kong', when the word Free is used as an adjective, it means one thing. It means Hong Kong is one of the freest places on earth, even freer than USA, the so-called land of the free. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the word Free is used as a verb, it means something else. It is part of a political slogan used by the anti-China separatists in Hong Kong. They wave independent flags and banners shouting 'Free Hong Kong, Revolution of our Time'. In essence, it has little to do with the abundant freedom which Hong Kong already has. The Pro-Democracy Movement (PDM) is rather a US-backed color revolution, a Pro-Destruction Madness (PDM) to bring down the HK Government and even the Chinese Communist Party.The separatists want to seize power and free Hong Kong from China, which is nothing but a political pipedream. Hong Kong is an inseparable part of China, a Special Administrative Region (SAR) with a very high degree of autonomy. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Some separatists say that they just want China to leave Hong Kong alone. They complain that China is turning the promise of 'One Country Two Systems' into 'One Country One System'. This is far from the truth. While keeping the promise of 'One Country Two Systems', China does not and shall not allow it to become 'Two Countries Two Systems'. Hong Kong may keep its own system, but it may not turn the one country China or the two systems into two countries. China has given Hong Kong a very high degree of autonomy, but the separatists want a 100% autonomy, which is independence. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ The separatists led by the so-called freedom fighters or democracy activists include the opposition party politicians and people from different walks of lives. These separatist leaders have direct link to the highest level of the US Government. They include Jimmy Lai, Martin Lee, Anson Chan, Joshua Wong and others. They are pro-democracy American heroes, but to the normal Hongkongers, they are nothing but useful idiots of Uncle Sam and despicable traitors to their own country China. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Do all Hongkongers support the separation of Hong Kong from China? No. The recent China’s National Security Law put forward by the National People’s Congress has received the signed support of almost 3 million Hongkongers. They cheered and celebrated. They’ve had enough of the non-stop violent riots and PDM which started in June last year. They are fed up with the separatists’ Larm Chow (see HK Question (1) for its meaning). 'Free Hong Kong' continues to be free. But no to treason, secession, subversion, sedition, terrorism and foreign interference! Goodbye traitors, separatists, foreign spies, terrorists, rioters, revolutionists, thugs and criminals! Please leave Hong Kong or run the risk of being captured and sent to trial, and if found guilty, to jail. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Edi Lee for Peace *** Fast Edi Thoughts and Comments

Hong Kong Question (1): What is Larm Chow (攬炒)? _________________________________________________ What is Larm Chow (Cantonese) or Lan Chao (Mandarin)? It means ‘keep stirring and frying’. It refers to the politically mad actions of the anti-China separatists, to make troubles and chaos by all means, and with no restraint, even to bring Hong Kong to complete destruction. It is a crazy concept that you burn down your own house and then build a new one. Destroy Hong Kong and build a new Hong Kong. What a stupid idea! It just doesn’t work! _________________________________________________ Edi Lee for Peace *** Fast Edi Thoughts and Comments
