John Kerry has gained the support of the largest political party in the world. The official online news outlet for communist China, the People's Daily, endorsed the Senator from Massachusetts for President of the United States.
"Comparatively speaking, Kerry is noted for being friendly with China. He was once firmly against linking the most-favored-nation status to China with human rights," stated an article on the U.S. Presidential race posted by the official Chinese Central Communist Party news outlet. "From a long-term view, a Democratic administration, which stresses international cooperation, pursues 'multilateralism' and stands for a policy of contacts, will be better for both world peace and Sino-U.S. relations," noted the People's Daily article.
According to the communist Chinese, Kerry looks "squarely at China's position and influence in Asia and the world at large" and that the Democrat candidate opposes "containment of China and stand for contacts with the country."
"He said: We need cooperation with China and cannot push Sino-U.S. relationship back to the Cold War period," states the Chinese news site. According to the communist officials, Kerry supports the "one-China" principle and opposes "Taiwan independence."
"At a broadcasting debate held in January this year, he alarmingly expressed support for the solution of the Taiwan issue by the method of 'one country, two systems' which triggered strong repercussion. Although this maybe a remark made at the spur of the moment, it reflected that his attitude toward the Taiwan issue is different from that of Bush," noted the People's Daily.
"There are no 'neo-cons' in Kerry's campaign team, and most of his men can rationally approach the common interests and actual differences between the two countries," stated the report.
Inferior Races
The report on the U.S. Presidential race appeared alongside another article that accused the Bush administration of disrupting world peace and seeking global dominance over "inferior" races and civilizations. "China has never done anything offensive to the United States; nor has it posed threats to America's security interest," claimed the official Chinese communist statement.
"However, what China has gained in return is U.S. bombing of the innocent Chinese Embassy in Yugoslavia, U.S. consistent sea and air reconnaissance in China's offshore areas and U.S. crash of a PLA airplane," noted the official statement.
"The U.S. government not only accuses China of its human right records every year; The Americans, like fanatic missionaries, are trying to impose American freedom, democracy and concept of value on the world's 'inferior' races and civilizations. This concept of towering above others is inevitably reflected in the American foreign policy."
Nuke L.A.
Of course, the official PRC outlet failed to mention the fact that General Xiong Guankai, deputy chief of staff for PLA intelligence and second in command of all PLA forces threatened the U.S. with nuclear war.
"He wanted to turn Los Angles into radioactive glass," stated William Triplett, author of "Year of the Rat" and defense analyst. "He threatened the United States with nuclear weapons. He is not a nice guy."
The official PRC statement also neglected to quote Document 1999 65 from the PLA Office of the Central Military Commission. The document noted that the Chinese government is prepared to fight a nuclear war with the U.S. and has sent official messages to back up its threat.
"In comparison with the U.S. nuclear arsenal, our disadvantage is mainly numeric, while in real wars the qualitative gap will be reflected only as different requirements of strategic theory. In terms of deterrence, there is not any difference in practical value. So far we have built up the capability for the second and the third nuclear strikes and are fairly confident in fighting a nuclear war. The PCC has decided to pass through formal channels this message to the top leaders of the U.S.," states the official PLA document.
PRC Military Exercise
The recent official press release from the communist government comes at the same time China is conducting military exercises near Taiwan. Over 3,000 soldiers and civilians took part in a two-day weekend military exercise off the southeastern coast amid increasing tensions with Taiwan. Officers and soldiers of the People's Liberation Army (PLA), militia and paramilitary police participated in the drill, which concluded on Sunday in Zhangzhou, East China's Fujian Province.
The drill also included ships from the PLA Navy auxiliary marine civilian militia warships and the state owned shipping firm COSCO. The civilian ships performed simulated landing exercises and fired ground-to-air guided missiles.
"Receiving orders, the defense mobilization committee of the city of Zhangzhou rapidly mobilized and organized the local citizens to enter a state of war," stated the official PRC Xinhua news outlet.
While the Chinese did not name any future opponent, according to the official PRC outlet, "the PLA and the Taiwan army are now both conducting military exercises."
The Chinese military exercise focused on how to provide civilian and militia support to the PLA on the sea "when the war broke out." Lieutenant General Zhu Wenquan, commander of the Nanjing Military Region, and Lu Zhangong, governor and acting Communist Party chief of Fujian Province, attended the exercises.
"People's war is the heirloom of our Party and our army. People's war is able to help us win fights in the future. People's war can help us finish the great cause of reunification," Zhu said.
Red Info Warfare
Xinhua also reports that former Chinese President Jiang Zemin called on Chinese military forces to be equipped with information technology for the strategic goal of winning information warfare.
Jiang, who remains chairman of Central Military Commission (CMC), made the call in Beijing while meeting with delegates attending a military seminar. Current Chinese President Hu Jintao, and Defense Minister General Cao Gangchuan also attended the meeting.
"In recent years, the military forces have made remarkable progress," said Jiang, stressing that the People's Liberation Army is under the absolute leadership of the communist party.

Wow. Communist China endorses Kerry for President. Have they threatened to invade the USA if we re-elect Bush, or is that coming after the Dems convention?
Wow, I thought this was gonna be a joke
I seem to remember an Orion crew one of your 'skilled' pilots decided to treat less than well.
And I know Korea is called "The Forgotten War", but c'mon already...
I am not a really smart person , but the way I read this China seems to think electing Kerry is an open invitation for them to invade Taiwan. Kerry has stuck his neck out a mile if this is so,because he may in the future have to crap or get off the pot if China does decide to have only one China and invade the Formosan Island.

"People's War", eh? Works for them.
And yet they need to take "assault weapons" (and eventually ALL weapons) AWAY from the AMERICAN "People"?
Is there a connection here somewhere?
And how many of those rocket-firing "Commercial" Ships and fishing boats are coming in & out of US ports and cruising around right off of our coast, I wonder?
How many nukes could you lug / launch from one of those big container ships, I wonder?
Whose side will the PLA come down on when North Korea makes their jump, do you suppose? Might we expect things to get interesting in Taiwan about the same time?
Did "W" leave off a major component of the "Axis of Evil" from his list after 9/11/01?
Could that member of the axis be the Bush Family's "Most Favored Nation"?
The same one that funded a lot of Klintons' campaign in exchange for free access in and out of Los Alamos and LORAN?
How much of those million$ that Klintoon keeps raking in from his "speaking engangements" is just internationally laundered PLA payoff money?
He'll never be held accontable for selling our Country out to the "People's Republic", will he?
I'm just full of questions tonight.
Looks like old John is calling in all the markers from his post Vietnam days.
"Red China Endorses Kerry"
Rather than messing around with guidance technology like they got from Clinton, maybe they should just ask Kerry to ship them some ready-to-launch nukes, pre-targeted to American cities.
"Red China Endorses Kerry"
Well duh, if the red shoe fits John Ferrys foot.
Do bears poop in the woods?
Hehe . ..time to add the Chairman of Communist China into the picture . .
Good grief....I thought this headline was a joke! I sure hope this will be in big bold letters on the front page of every paper across the country. I know...dream on.
So, I wonder what all the border busting, anti nationalist, globalist PRC boosters who haunt this forum have to say about this? The facts are that the Red Chinese Communists know how to act nice to Western businessmen as specific situations require, but at the end of the day, they hate us capitalists, they hate the West and badly want to undermine us. Memo to the PRC bootlicking cabal: Wake up you idiots!!!!!!
China's endorsement should scare the people of the US--they see us being a weaker nation under Kerry. They do not admire him--they hold contempt for him as weak.
vaudine
ROFLMAO!
Bill and Hill transfered Hi-Tech info to chicoms, who share with N.K. N.K. has been talking big for quite awhile. Look for the "Thanks Suckers" to come around 11/3/2004!!!!!!!!!!!
I bet this goes over well...
NICE ONE!!!
it takes one to know one !!!!

,,, the US is a country where voters can make a choice. How far down the track is China with similar rights or do they intend to stay as one of those inferior nations they're talking about? They wouldn't have an increasing amount of weaponry to call on if it weren't for all the slave labour producing products for the US market which funds it all. They can throw stones from their glass house pretty well.
must be the Energizer "bunny suit"
"the peoples war-the peoples war-the peoples war."
Wonder which people they mean when that phrase is used in China? The regular people, the little people, the (hee hee)free people, the poor people, the rich people, the practicing communist people, the people enslaved by the communist ? All the above? none of the above?
Do we want it on our conscience that our vote for Bush that defeated the Communist Chinese' chosen candidate, John If Kerry, caused a devastating Nuclear attack upon us by those Communist SOBs? We have no choice but to wave the white flag and vote for the playboy bunnyette.
You (shudder) win Kerry, we had no idea how powerful those world leaders endorsing you were until now. You da man bunnyetta. (sarcasm hell! I'm serious here!) We're all gonna die! (choke, sob) We're all gonna die!
That's a goodun, you Smartass.
You are welcome. Thank you for posting it.
Here is a longer quote from the article:
Who coming to power is in China's favor?
There must be the following three prerequisites for the discussion of this question. First, after more than 30 years of development, the Sino-US ties have gone through various tests, and have witnessed the establishment of all sorts of mechanisms and have thus become relatively stable. Second, the United States has possessed a relatively complete and stable democratic political system, its fundamental policies will not have major changes due to the rotation of political parties. Even if such changes do exist, they will finally return to the right track for the sake of national interests. Third, a presidential runner's attitude toward China doesn't necessarily determine the trend of his China policy after taking office, while international patterns, domestic politics and interactions between the two countries are usually the more decisive factors of US policy toward China.
In this sense, although Kerry is friendly with China, his possible assumption of office is not necessarily beneficial to China. On the contrary, at least on two questions, it may cause twists and turns in the Sino-US relations.
First is China-US trade. Since the Democratic Party represents small and medium-sized enterprises and the public interests of middle and lower strata, and it is precisely they that constitute the mainstay of the US unemployed army and victims of the US economic depression, Kerry will definitely apply himself to solving the problems of unbalanced trade and expansion of US employment in the early period of his possible assumption of office. A result of misleading US opinion over the past year is the allegation that factors such as the sharp increase in US trade deficit, the shift of the American market toward China and the artificial control of the RMB (People's Currency) are one of the "chief culprits" that leads to the sluggishness of the US job market. Kerry himself holds no dissent to this view. So it's hard to guarantee that Kerry will not use the "broad axe" to first attack the problem concerning Sino-US trade after his possible assumption of office.
Second is the Taiwan question. Although Kerry's policy stand on Taiwan is favorable to China, if the Congress is still under the control of the Republican Party, there would appear the result that the Taiwan issue would become a "mortgage" in US domestic political struggles. After Clinton put forward his "three no's" policy (not supporting Taiwan independence and "two Chinas" or "one China or one Taiwan", nor supporting Taiwan's participation in the international organizations of sovereign states) toward Taiwan in 1998, the Republic Party-dominated Congress immediately counterattacked by citing the so-called "The Taiwan Security Enhancement Act", as a result, not only the "three no's" policy quickly came to a premature end, but the pro-Taiwan forces within the Congress also became more arrogant. The "weighty words" Bush used when he told Chen Shui-bian on the question of referendum in Taiwan had aroused the dissatisfaction of the pro-Taiwan forces within the Congress, but considering that the Bush administration comprises of associates of the Republican Party, they just left the matter at that. But if Kerry comes to power, the Republican-controlled Congress would likely make a fuss about the tense situation in the Taiwan Straits, forcing him to express his stance on the "one China", "assistance in defending Taiwan" and other questions. This will result in setting up greater obstacles to China's efforts for solving the Taiwan issue. In addition, although a prospective Kerry administration might keep "new-cons" outside the cabinet, it is hard for him to prevent these forces from continuing to make trouble and exerting influence on every corner of the American society.
On the contrary, although the Bush Administration's concept on China is relatively passive, the Republican Party-led government seems to lay more emphasis on immediate interest and major strategies, so it will put more energy in anti-terrorism and punishment of "defeated countries". Though not an ideal "strategic partner", China remains a necessary "strategic helper". More importantly, after four-years' adjustment during his first term of office, Bush has basically tuned his China policy on to the existing track of "contact plus precaution" of the six previous administrations. Therefore, from a short-term point of view, the Republican Party-led administration is more favorable to China than that of the Democratic Party; while from a long-term view, a Democratic administration, which stresses international cooperation, pursues "multilateralism" and stands for a policy of contacts, will be better for both world peace and Sino-US relations.
I wish that NewsMax were correct; between a ringing endorsement by the Chinese Communists, this amazingly inept photo op:
... along with the equally odd decision to "go dark" in August, Kerry should be going off the skids rather than coming off a post-convention bounce. At least two out of three aren't bad.
beautiful graphic...
THE GUY WHO WROTE THIS ARTICLE IS A PROPAGANDIST TRYING TO SPIN A STORY BEFORE IT BREAKS -- AGAINST THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION. The actual story it is based on is called "Sino-US relations viewed from general election". I don't want to link to it, because when you hit the site it pops up a BS button purporting to ask whether to print it or not -- push the wrong button and who knows (it's China!).
It is an article by Yuan Peng with the American Research Institute is carried on the 7th page of People's Daily, July 23, and translated by People's Daily Online.
The operative conclusion is a "balanced" one -- supporting BOTH, with language that can be taken either way..."Therefore, from a short-term point of view, the Republican Party-led administration is more favorable to China than that of the Democratic Party; while from a long-term view, a Democratic administration, which stresses international cooperation, pursues "multilateralism" and stands for a policy of contacts, will be better for both world peace and Sino-US relations."
This one wins the prize...

China Plans a 'Village' in Florida
By Doreen Hemlock
Business Writer
July 28, 2004
Imagine an Asian-style "Mizner Park" or "City Place," complete with Asian architecture, teahouses, restaurants and shops selling made-in-Asia goods. Also, there would be showrooms for distributors of Asian products, an Asian culinary school, an Asian spa and perhaps even a hotel and apartments located above the stores.
That's the vision for an "Asian Village" proposed for Broward County by a leading Chinese state-owned group, China Shanghai (Group) Corp. for Foreign Economic and Technological Cooperation known as SFECO Group -- the biggest project to emerge so far from Broward's recent mission to China.
Plans for the $50 million-plus venture are progressing, as SFECO's local representative, Strategia Group LLC, of Miami, scouts for potential sites in Broward this summer.
Slenda Chan, Strategia's chief executive, said she's looking for up to 1 million square feet for the retail phase of the village, which would be about half the size of Aventura or Sawgrass Mills malls.
Later, she hopes to add another 1 million square feet in warehouses and other wholesale facilities, perhaps at a separate location.
The price tag for both the retail and wholesale phases could reach up to $150 million, Chan said.
Plans call for selling mainly goods from China, but also from neighboring countries including Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines and South Korea. Vendors would target both local and nationwide buyers, as well as clients from Latin America and the Caribbean who use South Florida as a business gateway, Chan said.
Strategia will serve as project manager, offering packages for vendors to buy or lease space and services ranging from hiring to office management, she added.
Money and international experience are apparently no stumbling block for the Shanghai group.
SFECO has ranked among the world's top 225 international contractors every year for at least a decade by Engineering News Record, a New York-based construction industry magazine published by the McGraw-Hill companies.
Plus, SFECO already has been active overseas on offices, factories, hotels, power projects and other ventures in Australia, Russia, Holland, United Arab Emirates and Singapore, to name a few nations. Chan describes the Shanghai group as a $3 billion venture.
But finding space in Broward may be a bigger challenge, said Harry Burnett, senior associate at real estate giant CB Richard Ellis Inc. in Fort Lauderdale.
"There are sites where you could find 1 million square feet, but you likely would have to do an assemblage," Burnett said. "And that's a lengthy process."
Shanghai-born Chan, who was educated at Florida International University and has been working in South Florida real estate for years, first brought the idea of Florida projects to SFECO more than a year ago. She emphasized to the group both the strong local market and opportunities for serving all the Americas from South Florida.
Once SFECO signed on, Chan said she began seeking sites in eastern Miami-Dade County, only to find land "very expensive."
She then approached Broward County, found officials "very welcoming" and opted to focus her efforts there.
Palm Beach County seemed too far from South Florida's largest airports and seaports in Miami and Fort Lauderdale, which handle the bulk of trade with Asia, she said.
Strategia had been working on the SFECO project with Broward's Office of Economic Development for months, when Broward Mayor Ilene Lieberman led a business group to China in May.
Chan said meetings between SFECO and Broward leaders in Shanghai helped "kick it up a notch to make the project happen faster."

It hadn't occurred to me that they would try to market it as a whole concept here in the U.S. Daggone, that might be a great idea, but then again it might be a colossal flop. It is a bold one, though I can think of at least two examples of a similar concepts, Huis Ten Bosch (though I believe Huis Ten Bosch wasn't succeeding commercially and has now metamorphosed into a Nice, France theme) and Spain-mura. (the latter site is in Japanese)
Faux Communists for Kerry!......ROTFL!
I suspect Jane Fonda is pleased.
