That’s why Xi (who has been given the same power and stature as Mao in the Chine constitution), gave a speech the other day telling his people to prepare for another “long march” which may cost “millions of lives”. Let that sink in for a minute.

The term “new long march” has a very important historical meaning in China. It evokes Mao Zedong’s strategic retreat in 1934, a retreat from nationalist troops through China’s vast territory. The goal of those who survived, though, was to come back to take power. Mao acquired a reputation as a great leader, and his party took power completely in 1949.

The Communist takeover in China led to more deaths than any other regime in the history of mankind—estimates are from 49 to 78 million victims. During the period from 1958 to 1962 alone, the supposed “Great Leap Forward,” 45 million people died.

All Chinese.

THanks. To be honest when I read Xi’s comments it sent chills down my spine. Most people in the US have no clue what we may be in for.
