The United States is pressing forward with a cognitive operation designed to secure the independence of Taiwan. A narrative that “China is the equivalent of Nazi Germany” is being aggressively promoted.
“Today, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) wants us to believe Taiwan is China’s Sudetenland – the one issue that must be “resolved” at all costs. The parallels are unsettling. Like Hitler, Beijing insists that if only this one grievance were settled, then everything else would calm down. Also, like Hitler, Beijing’s appetite extends far beyond a single territory… If the world allows the CCP to take Taiwan, then the result will be a fatal trigger for a long chain of aggression that will engulf the world once again in a global conflagration, as happened after the betrayal in Munich in 1938″[1].
The argument holds that Communist China constitutes a form of absolute evil comparable to Nazi Germany, and that it must therefore be prevented from reunifying with Taiwan.
This assertion is untenable. For China, Taiwan bears no resemblance to what the Sudetenland meant for Germany. The Sudetenland was part of a sovereign Czechoslovakia, whereas Taiwan is a remnant of China’s Civil War.
More fundamentally, China – unlike Hitler’s Germany – does not adhere to an expansionist, misanthropic ideology, contrary to the fabrications circulated by Deep State propagandists.
The dehumanization of China signals that the United States is preparing to go to war with it.
That is the underlying aim of the provocation orchestrated by cognitive warfare specialists at the Hudson Institute. It coincides with their urging of AUKUS allies to accelerate rearmament, lest “China wins – without a shot being fired.”
“China is preparing for war, and Australia must act to defend its sovereignty… To prevent a war, we need to convince the Chinese that we will collectively fight and can prevail in a war. In this context, Japan is the most important ally. Australia is next. If allies are not fully committed, the US cannot provide that check in Asia… Our current defence budget does not allow Australia to play this necessary role. Don’t blame Donald Trump for our predicament”[2].
Recognition by the United States of Taiwan’s independence and its war with China is now a foreseeable next step.
