Afgelopen
week doken er foto’s op van ‘Oeigoeren’ die klaar staan voor
deportatie met treinen naar concentratiekampen…… Met deze claim
wordt China gedemoniseerd als een afspiegeling van nazi-Duitsland met
de deportaties van Joden, Roma, Sinti, homo’s en politieke gevangenen
naar concentratiekampen en de daarop volgende massamoorden op deze minderheden….
Nieuw?
Nee, de beelden zijn al van vorig jaar september maar blijkbaar
genoeg voor de CIA en ander westerse geheime diensten om China nog
meer als een kwaadaardige natie voor te stellen, zeker na alle
Coronahysterie en de claim dat China verantwoordelijk is voor die
virusuitbraak….. Inderdaad claims van geheime diensten die
een enorm archief hebben vol leugens, valse beschuldigingen, plus de daarbij behorende
haat- en angstzaaierij, propaganda bedoelt om buitenlandse regimes aan de kaak te stellen
die niet aan de leiband van Washington wensen te lopen……
Gaat het
om Oeigoeren die naar een concentratiekamp worden
afgevoerd? Dat is maar zeer de vraag, het enige bewijs is de claim
van de CIA en de geheime dienst van Australië en nogmaals die staan
bekend om hun leugens, verdraaiing van feiten, alles overgoten met
een dikke saus van angst en haatzaaierij…..
CaitlinJohnstone schreef een artikel over deze zaak en stelt terecht dat
de Chinese overheid geen lieverdje is, maar om dan vervolgens de CIA
en andere van dergelijke westerse geheime diensten te geloven, gaat om
‘in het jargon te blijven’ 10 stations te ver……
Vergeet bij dit alles niet dat de VS concentraiekampen heeft voor vluchtelingen, kampen die worden geleid door ICE, een uiterst omstreden organisatie, waarbij men ouders nog steeds hun kinderen afneemt (die vervolgens op grote schaal worden misbruikt door ICE beambten in de kampen en andere facilieiten waar deze kinderen worden opgesloten…)…..
Lees het
artikel van Johnstone, waarin zij veel dieper op deze zaak ingaat en
bedenk daarna zelf wat wel of niet te geloven, maar onthoudt dat
geheime diensten vooral goed zijn in liegen, waarbij het eigenbelang
van deze diensten voorop staat, immers met veel van hun claims kregen
deze diensten, ook in het recente verleden, extra bevoegdheden en geld……. Anders gezegd: de geheime diensten hebben er alle belang bij om angst en haat te zaaien, daar ze hiermee (een groot) hun macht kunnen vergroten….. (en dan nogmaals: terwijl deze geheime diensten bekend zouden moeten staan als notoire leugenaars, bewijzen te over, neem alleen al de leugens voorafgaand aan de illegale oorlogen die de VS deze eeuw is begonnen, of wat dacht je van de belachelijke leugens dat Rusland de verkiezingen in de VS en referenda als die voor de Brexit heeft gemanipuleerd, geen flinter aan bewijs, maar nog steeds als waarheid gebracht door de reguliere westerse media en politiek!!)
I Don’t Always Believe CIA Narratives. But When I Do, I Believe Them About China
Caitlin
Johnstone <donotreply@wordpress.com>
My
social media notifications have been lighting up the last few days
with virulent Chinagaters sharing a
video
which purports to show Uighur Muslims being loaded onto a train to be
taken to concentration camps. It’s actually
an old video
that had already surfaced last year, but it is magically making the
rounds again as a new and shocking revelation in 2020 now that
western
China hysteria
has been officially kicked into high gear, at exactly the same time
the US enacts one
of the most dangerous and incendiary escalations of
recent years in the South China Sea.

So this old video from #Xinjiang of inmates transfer from Kashgar to Korla is making rounds on social media again. It 1st surfaced in Sept, 2019 but appeared to be older video from 2018 based on image analysis. Thread:
(voor de video in dit Twitterbericht, zie het origineel)
Everyone
tagging me in this video presents it as a self-evident “gotcha”
moment, in exactly the same way Russiagaters spent years tagging me
in every HUGE BOMBSHELL WALLS ARE CLOSING IN item of thinly sourced
narrative fluff in their debunked
conspiracy theory
that the Kremlin had infiltrated the highest levels of the US
government.
They
are one hundred percent certain that the video shows Uighurs being
loaded onto a train to go to a concentration camp, solely because
that is what the bit of text over the video tells them that that’s
what they are seeing. They aren’t looking at the actual data and
thinking critically about it, they’re looking at the narrative and
believing it on blind faith. Which, in a post-Iraq invasion world, is
an absolutely insane thing to do when presented with information
about a nation that is targeted by the US-centralized empire.
In
reality there’s nothing in the video which tells us that these are
Uighur people being sent to a “re-education camp” and not
merely a conventional prison transfer of convicted criminals, the
likes of which take place in the far
more populous
US prison system all the time. It’s
an unknown. We
are told
by the BBC’s Andrew Marr
(the same Andrew Marr whose phony journalism Noam Chomsky derided
years ago)
that it has been “authenticated by western intelligence agencies
and by Australian experts”, which in
practice are the same thing,
and that’s really the extent of the evidence. Again, this is an
insane source to take on faith in a post-Iraq invasion world.
There
are in fact an
abundance
of reasons
to be highly
skeptical
of the establishment
narrative
about what
is happening
to Uighurs in Xinjiang. But that isn’t the point that I am trying to
make here.

@caitoz
This thread is a reproduction for posterity of a good thread by @OohTheChilliOil, an account deleted by Twitter for unknown reasons, on the “Uighur Genocide”. The only archives I’ve been able to find of this thread are damn near unreadable, so I’m piecing it back together here:
The
point I am trying to make here is that the only sane response to any
narrative that is being promoted by western intelligence agencies and
their media stenographers about governments which have resisted
absorption into the imperial blob is intense and unrelenting
skepticism. These organizations have such an extensive
and well-known history
of lying about exactly this sort of thing that they have left us no
choice but to withhold belief from anything they say absent a
mountain of independently verifiable evidence if we want to have a
fact-based relationship with reality.
None
of this means that China has a wonderful government. It doesn’t even
mean that all the bad things we’re being told about what the Chinese
government is doing are false. It’s entirely possible that that video
shows exactly what we’re being urgently told to believe it shows.
There’s simply no way to be sure one way or the other in an
information ecosystem that is so severely tainted by propagandistic
narrative manipulation.
Surely
the Chinese government is far from sinless. It seems to be a constant
that power structures which keep secrets and use propaganda will
always wind up doing ugly things.
But this doesn’t mean you go
believing whatever cold war-facilitating story we are fed by western
power structures about it. Not if we want to avoid being duped into
serving
as pro bono CIA propagandists,
unwitting tools of a murderous war machine.
There
is a
slow-motion third world war
underway between the US-centralized power alliance and the nations
like China which have resisted being absorbed into it, and that war
is being largely facilitated by propaganda. If one doesn’t wish to
become a propagandist themselves, one ought to withhold belief from
the stories they are told about the terrible, awful things the
unabsorbed nations are doing which require extensive sanctions,
subversion and interventionism in response.
This
doesn’t mean you believe the opposite of what you’re told, it simply
means you refrain from believing either way and remain agnostic until
presented with hard verifiable proof.
Believing damaging narratives
about US-targeted governments is exactly as stupid as believing the
words of a known compulsive liar about someone you know he hates.
China
is such a curious anomaly in the narrative matrix. Many who are
normally skeptical of claims by western governments immediately
swallow anything they’re told about China.
They not only believe all
such claims, it never even occurs to them to seriously question
them. Like they seem to be genuinely unaware that skepticism of
establishment China narratives is even an option. The claims just
slide right into the “believe” file in their mind,
completely unchecked by anything resembling critical thought.
I
argue with people all over the political spectrum about China online,
and an astonishing percentage of them have clearly put exactly zero
research into critically examining these claims, even if they’re
people who are normally relatively critical of western foreign
policy.
They’re often completely unaware that whatever claims they’re
advancing are not just disputed but have large amounts of evidence
against them. This is because they’ve done no research whatsoever
into finding out what they were told is even true. They’ll do that
research on Iran, they’ll do it about Russia, they’ll do it about
Syria, but with China all skepticism immediately goes right now the
window. It’s the weirdest thing.
Always
be intensely skeptical of claims made about governments targeted by
the known liars who run the US-centralized empire. Always, always,
always, always. If you advance imperialist propaganda, then you are
just as culpable for the bloodshed and suffering they help facilitate
as the people who are actually launching the missiles.
Stay
skeptical, my friends.
