The NYT (Never Yell Truth; Nikita, Yuriy, Trotsky; New Yankee Tragedy--you pick ), honoring their philosophy, "All the Leftist Propaganda News Fit to Print," found time in between working for the Obama reelection campaign to publish an obsequious piece analyzing the background of the new Chinese dictator. In the Times November 3, 2012 article, Close Army Ties of China’s New Leader Could Test the U.S (link here), reporter Jane Perlez catches the readers interest with new Communist Party leader's Xi Jinping's Mexico City criticism of American policy:
China does not show the American public it's aggressive policy, the speech made in Mexico City and the leadership's real feelings. Instead, we are told to play with panda bears and enjoy inexpensive Chinese goods. The People's Daily editorializes, China’s Communist Paper Calls for Closer U.S. Ties Under Xi (link here). "China and the U.S. should deepen cooperation and become more interdependent, the Communist Party’s flagship newspaper said in a commentary today, signaling that new leader Xi Jinping may seek closer ties."
On whose terms?
“There are a few foreigners, with full bellies, who have nothing better to do than try to point fingers at our country,” Mr. Xi said, according to a tape broadcast on Hong Kong television. “China does not export revolution, hunger, poverty nor does China cause you any headaches. Just what else do you want?”Oh, I can think of a few things: Quit supporting the murderous and terrorist regimes in North Korea and Iran. Stop building up your military and threatening U.S. allies. Let your currency float instead of violating trade regulations. But Perlez's article never challenges Xi's ludicrous statements. Instead, the article suggests that America is in decline and China is ascendant.
The Chinese military’s new buoyancy comes as America’s allies across Asia — Japan, South Korea, Australia and other friends, particularly Singapore and India — worry whether the United States has the money, and the will, to enhance its military presence in Asia, as President Obama has promised.The above may be true, but the Times' does not interview anyone critical of the Chinese regime. The last time I checked the New York Times was not affiliated with China's People's Daily. I'm having difficulty figuring out the difference between them.
