Hayward: China Demands U.S. Colleges Be More Pro-Palestinian
breitbart ^ | 10/17/2023 | JOHN HAYWARD

Posted on 10/17/2023 10:10:01 PM PDT by bitt

China’s state-run Global Times on Monday took note of American universities supporting the terrorists of Hamas and insisted they should be even more supportive, which might be the most extravagant demand to come from the Chinese Communist Party since it drew a map that said the entire South China Sea, plus a good deal of India, belongs to Beijing.

The Global Times pushed Beijing’s phony moral equivalence line whereby the Chinese government pretends to be “neutral” and deplore all violence but actually supports the killers of Hamas and seeks to protect them from any Israeli military response.

The regime in Beijing has not denounced the Hamas atrocity, or even used the name of the terrorist organization that rules the Palestinians, but eagerly pontificates against Israel’s responsive military action.

“Taking sides will not solve the puzzle. The top priority is to achieve a ceasefire, stop the conflict as soon as possible, abide by international humanitarian law, and fully guarantee the safety of civilians, before working toward a just and lasting settlement that shall respect the rights of both sides,” the Global Times huffed, in a piece that briefly mentioned the “Hamas attack” only to frown at the “intense backlash” against American university students and faculty who supported it.

The Chinese Communist newspaper frowned at a few prominent university donors and alumni speaking out against campus statements of support for Hamas, linking them to an alleged “concerning trend” where “expressing support for Israel is safe while being pro-Palestine has become a taboo.”

Good luck with that. I demand China universities become more sympathetic to Tibetans and Uyghers.

Sounds like China wants to pick up the tab for the student loan deadbeats’ diplomas.

Hard to imagine how they could be even more pro-terrorist.

An odd request from a country that oppresses its own Mozlems population systematically.

If some do not know of the money ties to US universities....

Old info. but still true:
The PRC is the largest source of foreign donations to U.S. universities since 2013. The tuition paid by Chinese students is worth an estimated $12 billion per year. Chinese sources have participated in donations or contracts worth more than $426 million to U.S. universities since 2011

Valuable information from Heritage Foundation:
https://www.heritage.org/asia/commentary/chinas-damaging-influence-and-exploitation-us-colleges-and-universities

Excerpt:
A 2020 State Department warning about Chinese Communist Party activities at U.S. universities noted that recruits to the Thousand Talents Program must sign “legally binding contracts that often compel recipients to conceal their PRC relationships and funding, facilitate the illicit movement of intellectual capital to duplicate ‘shadow labs’ in China, recruit other talent, publish in China-based science journals, engage in activities abroad that would violate export control regulations, and influence U.S. organizations.”

When the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation started looking into the Thousands Talent Program in 2015, Beijing abruptly ended all public discussions of the program and deleted all online references to it. The programs, however, continue.

What is the secular basis of Judaism? Practical need; self-interest. What is the worldly religion of the Jew? Huckstering. What is his worldly god? Money. Very well, then! Emancipation from huckstering and money—consequently from practical, real Judaism—would be the self-emancipation of our time. […]

Money is the jealous god of Israel, in face of which no other god may exist. Money degrades all the gods of man and turns them into commodities. Money is the universal self-established value of all things. It has, therefore, robbed the whole world—both the world of men and nature—of its specific value. Money is the estranged essence of man’s work and man’s existence, and this alien essence dominates him, and he worships it. The god of the Jews has become secularized and has become the god of the world. The bill of exchange is the real god of the Jew. His god is only an illusory bill of exchange. …

Neutral, my foot. This is how the Red Chinese see the Jews, whether in Israel or in other parts of the world.
