I think China could use some freedom right about now. 🗽🚀🦅🇺🇸
@godogs89 Not sure an American can lecture the Chinese on taking over other people’s territory, it would be kind of hypocritical, but then…. Anyway, China isn’t and wasn’t responsible for what the DPKR did to it’s people and economy, and the US also, during that time, supported some pretty evil dictatorships.
@godogs89 Taiwan, actual name is Republic of China and with the help of USA, reclaim island in the SCS from Japanese occupation, the implication is that, at the time, the whole world recognize these own by ROC, and ROC got defeated in the mainland, thn later in UN, PRC is voted as a representation of China instead of ROC, naturally inherited those islands.
but lets cut it short, lets name calling anyone who is not bowing to the US supremacy, and also brainwash generations of peasant local and oversea to believe the truth which is nothing more thn propaganda, its nice when you control the media, everything you said is divine.
@godogs89 The dash line was established during qing dynasty, and yes, those are the islands within the dash line, they dont need to go to every island for declaration, they symbolically reclaim them under the dash line.
“Taiwan became its own sovereign nation.” well tell that to the taiwanese thn, its their constitution, ask their president to rebel against ROC and form a true sovereign nation. Even the pro independent party dont have the gut to do so. To date, they are still officially ROC.
ofc i dont reply to all your point, which will become writting an article, also you just repeating bunch of biased and information so i skip it, go read documents and books not fake news and be objective. But ofc you can continue to be ignorant, like trump, its the greatest gift to entertainment industries, and finding you to be funny is such a relief.
@godogs89 Ah yes, anyone that disagrees is a bot and why would you call it an ‘attack’, I was just pointing out that Americans have no moral high ground? Maybe it’s *you* that’s the bot promoting and defending the line?
Anyway, if you cared to read my post again you will note that I *did not* suggest that China isn’t doing the things you’ve pointed out, what I *did* say is that the US has done the same and probably worse, they’ve been at it longer and have an industrial quality killing machine bigger than the next seven countries combined, they’re pretty efficient. _Conservative_ estimates are that the US is responsible for 10 million deaths since the end of WWII, others go as high as 30 million and these deaths are only the ones *outside* the USA. The US also has a CIA that has been responsible for overthrowing about 60 democratically elected governments, generally for corporate interests and installing dictators with their death squads! I guess the good thing about this administration is that they kept Bolton which was one of the architects of the fiasco in Iraq and Elliot Abrams, the guy behind many of the death squads in Central and South America, it provides continuity I guess. As for the land they ‘liberated’, look at Michael Otieno’s post, and you _know_ that’s not the full list.
@godogs89 Internally it’s worse but internationally the US has no equal.
China’s true colors coming out.
AshW USA created terrorist, starts the war in the Middle East. Millions life lost. I know you gonna say, USA didn’t kill any civilians, but you know what? Just think about those impacts due to shortages food , medicines, and violence, bombing and slavery. USA their biggest export is their weaponry. Look at those F-35 and missile, why a country owns trillions dollars of debt still spend billions on weapons development and military base operations. Remember the budget is not balance, it has no plan to pay for the debt.There is no war in Asia, why there is military base there. Nothing but to manipulate other nations and creat conflicts , maybe these what American call national security. Who would dare to start a war these day. Of course USA is different story, cause they are #1, Iraq has oil is where they want to invade, so they using Massive weapons of destruction as excuse. I remember Iraq were cooperate with UN investigator before the invasion happened But USA and couple other nations still ignores and invaded. This is what I saw on the News. It’s neighbor Afghanistan where the terrorist are, they have less force than Canada are during the conflict. Afghanistan has nothing but mountains and terrain dry lands. No value to this all. There is no way the CIA don’t know where the terrorist is hiding.
USA doesn’t kill civilians? Pheh.. ever heard of wikileaks?
@Sean Hall like USA don’t do anything dirty, remember the Snowden incident, USA is like a person look good in the front and sounds so nice, but dirty as hell inside. Try to creat more conflict to other and get the biggest benefit. Taiwan they are part of China, there is no excuse for it. All because the civil war in China, the losing side relocated in Taiwan. But I do support Taiwan to remain the same as before, so it keep its characteristic. Hong Kong is good example after what China has done. Tibet I don’t support what you said there, since the Qing dynasties is part of China, beside the religion Culture and slavery in Tibet. China done more goods than bad over there, I guess you watch too much western media or fan of Dali Lima. If you talk about the Muslim camp in China, I knows it’s bad. They shouldn’t got treated this way. It’s very hard after the terrorist incident. Their religion beliefs is more than themselves sometimes, i saw a Muslim person in grocery stores the other days. their forehead had a black bruise probably the Ramadan. I don’t want to say anything disrespectful, isn’t this little bit extremist? Isn’t religion is about the mind and souls. Some of the religion is very hard to let them do what they want. for a huge nation some necessary is must .better safe then sorry. Just like flying to USA, I have to got there 4 hour before check in, because the security is overwhelming. I didn’t see anything like this in any foreign fly to other country. If USA didn’t done anything wrong why they would afraid. Maybe bullying too much?? Every country got its rules, as long you don’t go over the fence, no one would care.
@randall5824 N from investigation many war crimes committed by US & Brit. What rights does Bolton have to block them from investigation the truth on many war Crimes recently committed by War Criminal US & Brits? They just killed over 1M Iraqis & destroyed Iraq for a lie in the name of Greed. What’s the update on Assange??
Since WW2.. War Criminal US killed murdered more than 20 Million very poor innocent people from 37 victim nations world wide!! Destroyed & destabilized 37 poor nations. Even used Chemical poisonous warfare (Agent Orange) on the Poor Vietnamese people. Increased poverty across the globe & steal other nations’ wealth. War Criminal US is so Corrupt & in hude debt. Cannot pay its debt. Now trying to steal other nations’ wealth. Hands off Iran + Venezuela.
Sept 2018, your uncle John Bolton blocked & Threatened

@Jeff Schneider iam neutral, but i cant help to laugh till get fart loudly just yo listen average Amricanese comments, . I am not wonder you get Mr Trump as your president, he is Jerry lewis DNA as you all do, American ignorancy is at it core, i feel funny instead worry, America is the most country on earth who made war, and crimes against humanity disguised in and human right ann democracy , annexing , attacking every other countries like mad ramboo,,,,. I have long list about that, people dont love America but money, when money is gone America only have scartching balls,,under the sun, no one interested with American balls,, , China is not the country what most American use to think about,, many American even dont know where their toilet to day since suddenly homeless, , , society living in glass box , made in hollywood ,, . Its not about bad China this and that its about American DONT HAVE PROPER BUSINESS SKILL , since your grandpa use to taught you to use the gun and bullet to solve the problem with all your neighbour, instead how to learn good mathemathic, America is truly hillarious,,, . America blame every body of what American did to others, have no concience nor guiltiness neither shame , its the sign of people lost of selfconduct ,
Just simple fact : to day if you go to China more average Chinese speak good things about America compare the other way around, its very far comparison indeed,
American society injected by hate and racism in daily basis ,,, on tv show, magazine, news paper,
etc, not to mention too much porn movie,, and freedom made American knee weak, to much ooh yess ooh noo, its not goody,,, life is gravitation , its spiritual sport make a person mentally strong, Chinese live with it in daily basis , while American say ” hold my beer, ” end up obesity on the sofa,
How you expect can solve others while you hardly ajusting your belly button and broken zipper, ?
Please dont be upset about my reflection, I speak honestly, i had met many American who really poor in geographical knowledge, Chinese in rural place often know better than most American metropolish with proper education,,, its really makes me wonder,,🙄 bragging is one of American best product, silent is Chinese Talent, and thousands kilometer bridges done by Chinese in couple of years, American need a millenium for such, too much bragging make flate tire , good night,
This language is a true threat to America.
The funny part is China is NOT the only one who mines there’s “rare earth metals” it’s not a big deal. Australia, Brazil, USA, etc. also mine these same metals and more mining locations are being found 🤷🏻♂️
Other countries have rare earth but mining it cost alot so imagine mobile phones price skyrocketing while the made in China is so cheap. Hahaha
China has both the mineral deposits and the world class refinery operation and technique. The extract from Australia and US need to be sent to China for refinement(the US company is currently paying 15% tariffs to get that done).
@Rongrong Chen Also rare earth is not a single type of minerals, some deposit has higher concentration of various kind, while some lack the most used rare earth. So even if “rare earth” can be found anywhere, its not exactly able to meet your demand, both quantity and quality.
only one processing plant ….china.one is being built in Texas. Very hazardous. Even when built . not likely to meet demand. feel free to fact check
@Rongrong Chen Americans are so smart they can’t even tell than from then
It’s the time to show what China can do
China is a horrible trading partner and the world knows it. They have a 420 billion dollar trade deficit with the USA. They are fighting back because they don’t want to lose all that money.
@Aiden W What did you mean by ‘horrible trading partner’? Can you show some facts rather than empty talk? The US violates free trade agreement under WTO, the infamous protectionism could destroy the US. The US banned Huawei just because it is unable to compete with it, so Trump plays dirty. It is insane to start trade war to China, Mexico, EU, Japan, India, Russia and the world. The US is now a public enemy of the world, another aggressive empire, another Nazi Germany.
get it all out on the table, and see who wins
It sounds like you’re quoting President Trump. 🙂
Oh geez, we can’t drive Electric vehicles anymore 🚗. China how dare you!!!
And the new iPhone was going to have a cork screw! Now what are we going to do!?
You can still buy a Tesla made in Shanghai next year.
And there won’t be a production problem there.
hahahaha… you should thanks to US…
Papyrus Okagbue are you talking about Obama? Yea Trump is doing a good job cleaning up his mess.
US: Bans huawei.
China: hold my beer of rare earth elements.
Won’t even let them hold
A complete shutdown on rare earth production by China can send the world back to stone age in a few years.
Not the whole earth. They would keep on mining these materials and use these for their own technological advancements, and most likely, still sell to other countries. It might send the US back to the stone age though since it looks like China only has the US in it’s sights.
@JCC China supplies about 20% of the world’s supply but that’s partly because many mining companies wouldn’t produce or even expoler for the resources because China was producing so inexpensively, once China stops exporting the exploration will start and the mines will re-open but it will still take time to replace the Chinese supply.
Cheating is a hard habit to break…ask Dems.
Huawei’s # 1 in world. Paid back is 😆😆😆😆😆
Looks like China would rather go to war than make an honest deal. Seems like they have no place in the future of the world.
@Falling for Suicide So true, your system allows day light murder by your cowboy cops. Your system also allows your mighty cowboys to bomb and kill people all over the globe.
honest like Japan kowtow to US in 1980s? Chinese Communist Party used this Old Chinese 勿谓言之不预也(WuWeiYanZhiBuYuYe) on People’s Daily (party’s flagship newspaper like Pravda) 3 times only in history , it means Don’t Say We Didn’t Warn You(tone is like saying ‘Sayeth Naught We Didn’t Warneth Thee’) as an ultimatum to enemy, after saying this specific diplomatic wording then China counter-attacked socalist India army in 1962, communist Soviet army in 1969, communist Vietcong army in 1979.
Honest deal? US should have a fair competition between huawei technology.. using National Security Thread which till now no pure evidence. you u call this honenst?
Ronny Lim that’s hilarious, why don’t you ask the Muslims in the Chinese internment camps?
@Falling for Suicide An American is talking about justice, haha.
Considering what they did to Huawei and Zhongxing, China really should stop exporting rare minerals to US
@trAovm rtqaq rest of the world can survive without America as well.
@dex lee you cant. you are on YOUTUBE.
tomato totato haha alright that’s a good catch, smart
@trAovm rtqaq Well, a video posting website is way easier to replace thn a set of supply chain, not to mention a complex web of supply network. So its quite funny you think china can be ditched without a tsunami of disaster hitting the global economy, but instead its impossible to replace a website.
Numbers dont lie, but you can manipulate how it is being present, like the trade deficit thing.
Aiden W why everyone blame China for this trade deficit, first Americans like cheap stuff and cheap labor, if they don’t make in China, it would make at else where. Most likely south east Asia. Second China is the world largest goods maker, because it can access to variety of materials and labor, the government provides stable environment for foreign companies. Third, China join WTO in 2001, if you look at the past, India for instance, they have a lot of restrictions. Cambodia and Vietnam, their politic is not very stable. Cambodia is still at civil war. Vietnam wasn’t very friendly with USA. Philippine is a island, so when it come to material is very limited. Africa people are killing each other at that time. So China took that chance to become the worlds largest good maker. Now USA uses that excuse to say there is a trade deficit between China. The world large maker on goods. What do you expect. Four, trump said China steal their jobs. USA company are too greedy, if they didn’t try to maximize the profits and move the company to a third world country for cheaper labor. But If those item were manufacture locally. Its not very economical. When you operate a company you have to find the cheapest supplier. it will lower the risk, cause some time no one buys. Those company will keep moving around the country with a cheap labor. why you blame China for steal the job.
Its time to bring freedom and democracy to the people of China FOLKS?
With more dictatorial means? Just like the women freedom in Alabama, privacy in Fed-Ex and academic freedom in IEEE, which would make US more like a dictatorship in decades?
Bring back sanity to the US.
Let’s put the Chinese flag 🇨🇳 on the white House and have three branches of us government under the control of the CCP
It is time to sanction US. US sanction every country in the world. It is time for US taste how is the sanction feel like.
California Guy when the gdp surpass us ,then you laugh.nearly 7 years.just wait qiuetly.
Ban ban rare earth to all white countries, Japan and Korea, all lapdogs of US and US asshole lickers.
All of those mineral are extract from Tibet.
Shawn Li I can confirm. Anyone who has been following this for more than a day would already know that.
If China stop exporting the rare earth, then US can’t sell their weapon to other countries like Saudi etc for war. Actually is good!
Rare earth is not rare but do they have the technology and manpower’s to mine and extract it at a low cost as China and in the short period, US definitely can’t mine to have it. Maybe another few years time !!!
@Michael Rich Many countries have rare earths, but they can’t use the raw materials directly, they have to send them to China for processing, China dominates 97% of world’s rare earths processing. Trump underestimated China, maybe he knew nothing about rare earths and the consequences involved should China retaliates.
THEY CAN FORCE AUSTRALIA TO EXPORT ALL REAR EARTH TO USA ONLY
America done so much bad things to China , really should stop exporting rare minerals to U.S
Why use the word ” Threatening”? Seems like everything is a National Security Threat. You can name it. Perhaps from textile to soap, even stationery. Hmm…. all China products.
this is obviously that china fight back politically disaster…US worried about security issues and not for the trade industry…how dare you china…c’mon dragon fly be fair
if you want fair.. then proof the point that huawei has the security thread…
@Jason Low : relax little kung fu….stay awake and take your medicines before you trying to argument with me….just remember what mom advice is…hehe
won’t be easy (in fact, will be a nightmare) to reassess and find another high quality supplier like china, and even worse if u.s. has to start building and operating its own rare earth minerals mines. i know as i am related to the IT sector and parts procurement/manufacturing. trump should not have abused his executive capacity to kidnap huawei’s prez’s daughter and to now ban huawei. a very rash, hypocritical, fatal mistake. (worst mistake since usa decided to go to war with ‘little vietnam.’) especially the ‘spying’ excuse has no evidence. usa itself is the worst menace in terms of spying, according to ed snowden. china is much more determined to now leap so much farther ahead as it will make everything it needs in-country/domestically, as china has the enviable status of possessing unlimited talent/manpower/materials/tech/money. china is deadly serious now in its intention to turn usa into a weak or even negligible rival. (even global companies are now apprehensive about doing biz in usa, which is a far worse prospect for the usa than u.s./global companies moving from china to low-quality inexperienced manufacturing locales like india/philippines with lazy undisciplined workers, etc., lol.) the dragon is awakened, and all thanks to the three stooges (trump, bannon, bolton).
You are 100 percent correct. Trump awakened the sleeping dragon.
Lol Wait until USA puts 100% tariff rate, it will collapse Chinese economy.
Recession coming soon in US
It started. By the summer of 2020, it will be full blown recession.
Now the media will say the global economy is in recession, but in reality its only USA that is in recession. Haha
@Walden Trump *did* say he wasn’t worried because the next administration would have to worry about it.
Israel PM ” When were finished with the US they can blow away in the wind ? Agenda ?
How the turn table
USA ban huawei’s. China ban rare minerals the match is 50,50 😆😆😆😆
John King Yeah, the US is *always* prepared for war, that’s the fallback in any negotiations.
@Jerry Daniel It is OK for not being able to use Huawei phones, but it is not OK if all the car production, lithium battery production, F35 fighter jets, spacecrafts, rockets and other military weapons production are totally shut down.
I think as a matter of national security to China, China should stop export and ban all export of rare materials to US.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh please get your chemistry right before you post on stuffs like this
China must take this rare opportunity to eliminate USA military capabilities once and for all to avoid next world war !!!
Mr Xi, please consider this option seriously. I think Mr Trump is still at the Golf Course.
China secret weapon is to release one billion political refugees unto the world and peace will reign ever after. Hehe
well, U.S. should simply stop letting China have food and clean water. One you can live without, the other…..
Like the Soy beans issue has shown you can grow food elsewhere but you can’t extract minerals anywhere else. Argentina and Brazilian farmers are the greatest beneficiaries of the trade war so much for make America great again
China can easily get it food from so many countries, Russia have ample of land and produce ample of food and in fact they are supplying to China for years and therefore China don’t need America food at all !!! China also have they own food productions and secondly China also have ample of water that they decide to supply it to they outskirts in their water planning in their country!!! So US can eat their own GM soybean and other GM foods !!!
@de You don’t seem to get it agriculture and food can be grown anywhere there is plenty of land in China Russia and Mongolia to replace American soy however rare earth is not found anywhere else and Canada has minimal reserves of rare earth it is not among the top 10. Uranium is not rare earth.
Let JESUS support ALL Christians in China and ALL Nations vs. US Trade War.
WOW What a great channel. I haven’t seen this many race baiting basement dwelling morons with a kindergarten education leave so many comments just like they were written by stellar people…. with iq’s less than room temp.
China is so smart it hurts trump.
I demand that China stop exporting rare earth metals to the USA now. China don’t be shy ban the export and show the world the power of the Chinese Empire. The USA is now a very poor country. I am now so poor I can’t afford to buy a brand new German made car which is a very sad and traumatic experience. Driving a Fiat is not fun in California!
The USA is actually has a lot of these rare Earth metals. But, China flooded our market with their cheap mined quantities. Its about time we start paying Americans to mine these. The Hell with China.
LoL, and it has nothing to do with environmental law? you outsource the entire industries out because its better to create pollution elsewhere, blaming others is really easy.
China is going choke the life out of the rest of the world with trade…
Hey china. How’s that economy doing?
Trade war is a lose-lose war, neither China nor the US will win.
Let’s do it! It’s time to slow down US progress.
1:04 I had no idea rare earth minerals were used to produce butt plugs.
Why want to supply this kind of hypocrites and troublemakers country !!! Ask them to go and fly kite !!! Better use it to manufacture more wars assets and nuclear missiles to protect China and it’s citizens from this big bully country !!! If they can banned Huawei from US, so China also have the right to stopped the supply of this product to US too !!!
we asean not need america influence…we already have BRICS and we can develope ours economy for glorious than america…
#AseanSupportChina
Well, it looks like Australia and Myanmar are in for a killing…
Not to mention arbitrage actors. Ya, what?
That’s an Australian mining company buying Chinese rare Earth metals through a third party and then sells it to America at an inflated price…Yep the only long term loser in this game will be China…everyone else makes a killing.
All reports on rare earth metal for the past weeks, I have not seen any words on it from Chinese governments. It actually was stirred up by US media first, and chinese social media seems to pick it up afterward.
Rare earth metal are not rare, and the production is not irreplaceable. I can hardly see restricting exporting can cause any long term effect. Maybe to those mines or processing companies pop up on the opportunity (to capture the market Chinese left) they would face difficulties when chinese export re-open (if ever restricted) like after 2013 (all but one US rare earth mine escaped bankruptcy after china’s initial restriction and later re-open of rare earth mineral exports.
Yes there are reserves outside china and also in the US but I believe the mine in California was closed. It’ll cost the US billions of dollars in the process of mining on thier own or buying from another country.
So yes they’ll be fine for the medium term but in the long term it’s bad because China has more reserves than Vietnam and Australia combined.
Don’t worry easy win right
US Global Cops are not scared yet ? China will find more trade partners.
Please do so China s u can build something better than weapons lol
Great china
Hi
OMG!
China should have done it to promote peace around the world.
Don’t play play with China, US and the western idiots will regrets for it.
