China criticises US's 'war on terror'
September 11, 2005

CHINA used the fourth anniversary of the September 11 attacks in the United States to criticise Washington's "war on terror," saying the campaign faced a "gloomy future".

In a commentary issued by the official Xinhua news agency, China said although the "war on terror" helped President George W. Bush get re-elected, it had not achieved much progress.

"At present, the United States is suffering a rising number of casualties and facing more problems in Iraq and Afghanistan," said the editorial.

US troops were "increasingly bogged down" in the Iraqi and Afghan "quagmires" and the American people and their allies faced more threats of attacks from Al-Qaeda and other terrorist groups, Xinhua said.

1. But of course... we've been living with the WOD for 20 years now, and can
see the way it has destroyed out society, all in the name of 'helping' us help ourselves. :eyes:

This, of course, was the same methodology used by the Chinese Communists when they 'liberated' Tibet in the late 40's. :grr:

3. Perhaps they should consider not financing it
The war advocates would never be able to get away with what they do if they relied upon current tax revenues alone. It is the treasury bills bought by China and other Asian countries that make the war possible simultaneous with tax cuts for the wealthy.
