For the first time ever, global business executives ranked the United States outside the Top 10 in international surveys of competitiveness. The US was firmly in the top spot for decades, and was never out of the top three. According to this year’s survey, executives pushed the United States to #12, while Asian economies Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the UAE snagged four of the top eight spots.

This survey of international business leaders mirrors what everyday Americans tell pollsters at home: the United States is on the wrong track, and American citizens’ confidence in national institutions are at all-time lows.

But our policymakers rely on other surveys, such as from the World Economic Forum and the UN, which continue to show the US as the most competitive. Why is there such an apparent disconnect, between what business executives say about doing business in and with America, and what transnational organizations claim?

在國際競爭力調查中，全球企業主管首次將美國排在前十名之外。 美國幾十年來一直穩居第一，從未跌出前三名。 根據今年的調查，高層將美國推至第 12 位，而亞洲經濟體新加坡、香港、台灣和阿聯酋佔據了前八名中的四個席位。

這項針對國際商界領袖的調查反映了美國人日常對國內民調人員的看法：美國正走在錯誤的道路上，美國公民對國家機構的信心處於歷史最低點。

但我們的政策制定者依賴其他調查，例如世界經濟論壇和聯合國的調查，這些調查繼續顯示美國最具競爭力。 為什麼企業主管對於在美國做生意以及與美國做生意的說法與跨國組織的說法之間存在如此明顯的脫節?

Chinese will decide next SF Mayor? Fantasy! Chinese engaged infighting everyday, just use split and destroy tactics to make them useless political force. There is a distinguished difference between Chinese and Jewish Americans in US. Both are competitive among themselves. For Jewish Americans, any politician attempt to proposed anything harmful to Israel, they shall become a unified force to remove those politicians from office. For Chinese Americans is exactly the opposite, many will support US politicians with a death wish on China. 誰能當舊金山市長, 華裔說了算? 非也! 華人是最不團結, 天天自傷殘殺，非常容易被分裂. 美國的華裔美國人和猶太裔美國人之間存在顯著差異。兩者之間都存在競爭。對猶太裔美國人來說，任何政客試圖提出任何對以色列有害的建議，他們都將聯合力量，將這些政客趕下台。但對華裔美國人來說則恰恰相反，許多美國華人會支持要摧毀中國的美國政客, 這就是我們歷史上稱之為漢奸走狗.

The China Report video: Anti-China Scapegoating: A New Red Scare for a New Cold War 中國報告影片：反華替罪羔羊：新冷戰的新紅色恐慌.

本週，阿曼達和KJ 與退休的舊金山高等法院法官和「轉向和平」聯合創始人鄧孟詩法官一起討論這些新的紅色恐慌政治迫害，以及美國政府用來進行這些迫害活動的工具，例如外國代理人登記法案和中國倡議 – 以及這些計劃如何加劇對美國普通亞裔美國人的反亞裔仇恨

This week, Amanda and KJ are joined by retired SF superior court judge and co-founder of Pivot to Peace Julie Tang to discuss these new Red Scare witch hunts, the tools the U.S. government uses to conduct these persecution campaigns such as the Foreign Agents Registration Act and the China Initiative — and how these programs ramp up anti-Asian hate against regular Asian Americans in the U.S.

Every few weeks, we see a new sensationalist corp media headline about “Chinese espionage,” or “Chinese agents” infiltrating the US and sharing info with the Chinese Gov’t. Our understanding of China and US-China relations-has become a defining feature of all global politics. The China Report is a new show produced in collaboration with Pivot to Peace where every week, journalist Amanda Yee and political analyst KJ Noh will be helping you through all the propaganda with an independent view of the country we are taught to hate, but know so little about.

Video: A serious interpretation of Dao Lang’s “Inverted Song”

https://rumble.com/v5avynx-a-serious-interpretation-of-dao-langs-inverted-song.html

正经解读刀郎的《颠倒歌》剑鸣涛声

前两天，我以一位高中语文高级教师的名义，正经解读了刀郎火得不能再火的的《罗刹海市》，今天再来解读一下刀郎新歌专辑《山歌寥哉》里的《颠倒歌》。

和《罗刹海市》相比，《颠倒歌》似乎没有引起太大的争议，好像这首歌似乎没有那么丰富、深刻的内涵。其实，两首歌的风格是完全一样的，你真要往某些人身上硬贴标签，那谁也没有办法！

只是，《颠倒歌》的题目直截了当点明了主题，有人想要曲解，似乎也不太容易上手。

《颠倒歌》的歌词大致也可以分成三个部分：每个部分6行，第2、3两个部分，是同一内容的重复。也就是说，歌词表达的其实只有两层意思——

把一只鳖扔进黄色的便盆它会自觉高贵

骑一头驴参加宫廷的舞会它能自比王妃

阳光照不亮夜里的鬼 六畜难懂人间味

它以为总是它以为 扁桃肿得比脑肥

当一条狗叼着骨头趴下会看见它的尾巴

当踩扁一只螃蟹再看它就发现一只王八

第1层，这个世界是完全被颠倒了的世界。歌词中虽然运用了不少意象，但其本质都指向一点：某些物种自视甚高，自我感觉良好，但实际上：遨游便盆、自觉高贵的鳖仍是王八；骑驴参加宫廷舞会、自比王妃的物种依然是物种本身；习惯在夜间出没的魔鬼见不得阳光；被人豢养的六畜当然不知人间的口味、滋味、意味和品味！别一张嘴就是“我以为”“我以为”，你以为你是谁呀？装得像个精神领袖，外形丑陋，被丑陋外形包裹起来的灵魂更不堪！摇尾乞怜、横行霸道、鲜廉寡耻，最终，这一切只能是面目全非、狰狞丑陋，自取其辱！

Unit 731 vet exposes crimes of Japanese army. Hideo Shimizu, a former member of Unit 731, the notorious Japanese germ-warfare detachment during World War II, identified the crimes of the Japanese army on Tuesday at the site where he served 79 years ago in China. 731部隊老兵揭露日軍罪行。清水秀雄是二戰期間臭名昭著的日本細菌戰部隊731部隊的前成員，他於週二在他79年前在中國服役的地方揭露了日本軍隊的罪行 Aug 12 2024

Shimizu arrived by plane in Harbin, Northeast China’s Heilongjiang Province, on Monday evening and visited the former site of Unit 731’s headquarters building, including the office of the unit commander, the specimen room, and the site of the frostbite laboratory, on Tuesday morning, according to the Xinhua News Agency.

Shimizu, 94, was among the last batch of Unit 731 Youth Corps members sent by Japan to Harbin, China, where he spent more than four months witnessing the war crimes committed by the unit, including the cultivation of pathogens, human dissections and human experiments, according to Xinhua. He fled China with retreating Japanese forces on August 14, 1945.

“The war ended 79 years ago, and most members of Unit 731 have passed away. Shimizu is the sole surviving member who is willing to expose the Unit’s crimes publicly, and he is likely to be the last Unit 731 member to return to Harbin,” said Jin Chengmin, curator of the exhibition hall, as reported by Xinhua.

Shimizu also said this is his first time out of the country after the war and his first time returning to China. “Instead of worrying about what the Chinese will do to me upon my arrival in China, I’m afraid that those Japanese politicians would prefer to see me dead,” he noted, as reported by media.

In 2016, Shimizu revealed his identity as a former Unit 731 member and began to expose the atrocities of the Japanese Imperial Army through public speeches and interviews, aiming to tell historical truths.

After he learnt the true nature of the germ warfare and human experimentation carried out by Unit 731, he deeply regretted having been a part of it, according to an article Shimizu published on People’s Daily on Monday.

Upon returning to Japan, members were asked to conceal their experiences serving in Unit 731 and were not allowed to hold government positions or to contact the unit. Therefore, for a long time, Shimizu did not disclose his experience of serving in Unit 731 to anyone, according to the article.

According to the article, as the former Unit 731 Youth Corps member, his superior officer told him that if he wanted to become a “surgeon,” he had to dissect at least three corpses.

“I clearly remember that there were many specimens of infants and children in the specimen room. Over the years, whenever I see my grandchildren, I think of the infant specimens that I saw in the specimen room back then,” Shimizu wrote.

On the eve of Japan’s surrender in August 1945, Unit 731 blew up prisons and other facilities, massacred prisoners, and burned their bodies before fleeing China to cover up the evidence of their crimes. Shimizu took part in carrying the bombs and picking up the burnt bones, according to his article.

Shimizu decided to put on public display the only photo he had kept of Unit 731 and the testimony about it. However, the Iida City Board of Education in June 2022 suddenly informed that panels related to Unit 731 could not be displayed in the museum.

According to the article, it also demanded that the term “Nanjing Massacre” be replaced with “Nanjing Incident,” which caused strong public resentment. Under extended pressure, the Iida City Board of Education in February 2023 organized a meeting to discuss the Unit 731 panels. However, the conclusion was that “the content on the exhibition panels is too cruel and goes beyond the scope of Japanese school textbooks.”

To this day, his testimony has not been used in the museum. The tendency of the Japanese government to deny the fact that Unit 731 carried out biological warfare and to evade its responsibility for the harm caused by the war has become even more obvious, according to the article. The current Japanese government has not only failed to seriously reflect on its past war crimes but has also failed to assume its historical responsibility as a perpetrator of war, read the article.

During World War II, in blatant violation of international law, the Japanese army launched horrendous bacterial warfare against the Chinese people and conducted gruesome human experimentation, which were heinous crimes against humanity. There are solid proofs for the bacterial warfare launched by Japanese militarists and there’s no room for denial, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian told Tuesday’s press briefing.

We commend the courage of Shimizu who reveal the historical truth and face it squarely. Japan needs to heed the call for justice from both home and abroad, face up to and reflect on its history of militarist aggression, respect the feelings of the people from the Asian victim countries in Asia, including China, draw lessons from history, get rid of the specter of militarism that still haunts it, and never let history repeat itself, said Lin.

Shimizu’s actions serve as important evidence of the crimes committed by Japanese military, Lü Yaodong, deputy director of the Institute of Japanese Studies from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times on Tuesday. It is crucial for Japan to face up to the historical truth through the behavior of the veteran.

As right-wing thoughts rise in Japanese society, the Japanese government strengthens its military capabilities, and there is a divergence in understanding historical issues, with some statements attempting to glorify war, Da Zhigang, director of the Institute of Northeast Asian Studies at the Heilongjiang Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times.

Given the historical grudges between China and Japan, coupled with Japan’s distortion and dilution of its historical responsibilities, the act of the Japanese veteran coming to China to confess their crimes and offer apologies serves as a significant response.

Unit 731 was a top-secret biological and chemical warfare research base established in Harbin as the nerve center for Japanese biological warfare in China and Southeast Asia during World War II.

At least 3,000 victims were used in human experiments by Unit 731, while more than 300,000 people in China were killed by Japan’s biological weapons, Xinhua reported.
