China almost never has the mass terrorist attacks that plague America.
Ever wondered why?
This from frontpagemag.com.
Perhaps the main reason moslem terrorists target America is that our country has been Israel’s main defender for the past 75+ years. That has changed somewhat under Biden, but not enough to assuage 7th century barbarians.
But there are other reasons why these terrorist attacks very seldom hit China. China has a controlled immigration policy, so self-destructive moslems who fly planes into buildings or drive cars into pedestrians are not allowed into the country.
And below are three additional reasons China does not have a terrorist problem.
1. China does not allow DEI stupidity.
The FBI has become a haven for the Left’s DEI cause, and that’s indubitably one reason why New Orleans was so tragically struck. The New Orleans Police Chief was an FBI instructor for “Bias and Diversity.” That city’s branch of the FBI recently held a “Diversity Recruitment Event,” and its “X” account posted the following message:
At the #FBI, we know that diversity makes us strong. During #PrideMonth, the FBI celebrates our #LGBTQIA+ colleagues’ contributions to our country and our mission. Learn more about the Bureau’s diversity and inclusion initiatives… [and a website is provided.]
This post had a big, colorful “PRIDE” placard included. When one is more interested in promoting left-wing “social justice” than in saving lives, one shouldn’t be surprised when thugs drive cars into crowds and kill innocent people.
China does not have such a DEI problem. And it’s not because there is no “diversity” in the country. China often boasts of its nearly 60 different ethnic groups; not all Chinese are alike, not even close. These people, while considering themselves “Chinese” and China citizens, are proud of their heritages.
But they also know who the Uyghurs are, and have sense enough not to slap a mad dog in the face to see if it will bite.
China just doesn’t put up with DEI stupidity. Such stupidity is, of course, one reason why Biden’s DOJ is so ineffectual against terrorist attacks. And while 100% protection against terrorism can never be guaranteed, certainly more diligent concern about true criminals than pro-life grandmothers would probably make America a safer place.
2. China will not tolerate terrorism.
Can you say “Uyghurs”? Terrorists in China can. In 2014, a group of Uyghurs attacked and killed several dozen Chinese (not the only such Uyghur attack in China). The entire Uyghur population has suffered since that time. The Chinese government’s policy towards Uyghurs is appalling, but the CCP is responding, in no uncertain terms, to Uyghur attacks on Chinese people, and in this case, it is way over the top, but that is my point. The Chinese do not put up with this stuff. You pull a terrorist incident in China, and you, and a whole lot of your friends, are going to suffer some pretty drastic consequences.
America does not have to be—and should not be—as brutal in response to crime as China has been against innocent people, but again, any terrorist in China knows that their actions will result in horrendous outcomes. Do terrorists in America have that fear? Do they have any fear at all of Biden’s FBI and DOJ? Given point number one above, why should they?
China has few terrorist events because the CCP does not tolerate them. And everybody, especially the terrorists, know ‘disappear forever’ is China’s policy towards such stunts.
3. China is a totalitarian state without freedom.
The CCP has been in power in China since 1949. It is the greatest mass murdering institution in human history, having killed more people in 75 years than any other country in history. It is still killing many people, in China and around the world, and, as a result, they have their own populace pretty well cowered now. Stick your head up in China and you are liable to get it lopped off. And the Chinese people know it.
Freedom involves risks. As Walter Williams used to illustrate, we could totally end car accident deaths in America by the simple expedient of setting the maximum speed limit at 5 miles per hour. But we don’t want to do that. Speed limits are much higher than that, which risks, and results in, thousands of traffic fatalities each year. Freedom means trade-offs: risks versus security. People in totalitarian states may have more security (except against government), but certainly fewer risks than freedom allows. Like, no gun ownership.
Freedom also requires a morality that totalitarianism does not need. A free people, in order to maintain freedom, must practice self-control, must practice a virtuous morality, must respect the lives and property of others.
John Adams may have said it best:
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other.
Limited government—i.e., freedom—demands a virtuous citizenship. America once had that, but the Left has destroyed it.
And to sum up all of the above:
[Moslems] do not subscribe to Judeo-Christian morality, and neither does China. And neither does the American Left. If we want to stop terrorist attacks in America, we must either have a Chinese-type totalitarian system, or a virtuous population. AND a sensible immigration policy. Currently, America has none of that. Hence, New Orleans.
As Thomas Jefferson said:
The government you elect is the government you deserve.
Final thought: May we wisely use this opportunity to set back the abilities of the Left to spoil our Constitutional Republic for at least another one hundred years.
