From Daily Signal.com (April 28):
Lying comes naturally to the Chinese Communist government, which will say anything to maintain its tight grip on the reins of power.More articles about China:
Officials in Beijing continue to lie about the number of deaths in Wuhan, the epicenter of the coronavirus. The official death toll is 2,500, but some 5,000 burial urns were delivered to just one Wuhan crematorium, and pictures of overwhelmed Wuhan hospitals circulated widely.
Radio Free Asia, which has excellent sources within China, says that as many as 42,000 people could have died in the city.
But the dishonesty didn’t start with the novel coronavirus. The government has been lying for 31 years about the Tiananmen Square massacre of several thousand freedom-seeking students in June 1989. Beijing insists that only a few people died and that troops were dispatched merely to quiet so-called hooligans and maintain public safety.
The Chinese Communist government lies about its persecution of the Muslim Uighurs in western China. An estimated 1 million Uighurs—one-tenth of the population—have been placed in so-called education centers.
We don’t know how many have died in these gulag-like camps circled with barbed wire while being educated in Chinese President Xi Jinping’s school of thought. Nor do we know how many Uighurs have died of COVID-19 disease.
The Chinese Communist government lied that it intended to honor its 1984 agreement with the British regarding the transfer of authority of Hong Kong to China. Ever since, like some giant boa constrictor, Beijing—enabled by an excessively deferential Hong Kong government—has steadily encroached on the political affairs of the city’s 7 million inhabitants.
The greatest lie of all was the monstrous suggestion made by a Chinese Foreign Ministry official that the coronavirus might be American in origin—that it was brought to Wuhan by the U.S. military. Such calculated disinformation was the stock in trade of the Soviet Union, whose casebook Communist China has clearly copied. [read more]
