JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: ACCUSATIONS OF CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR COMING FROM THE WORLD’S BIGGEST CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION, THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES

John Chuckman


COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE BY JASON PROCTOR IN CBC NEWS


Meng Wanzhou [executive of China’s Huawei corporation, arrested in Canada by American request] is a fugitive only from the United States' irrational fear and hatred of China and its success.

The only criminal involved in this case is the United States’ government, the same government practicing gunboat diplomacy in half a dozen countries.

The same government hurting millions of sick and poor people with its illegal sanctions, American laws applied to people who are not Americans and with no authority from anyone else.

The same government which pressures every ally to buy only its products and not those of China or Russia.

The same government that just quit the World Health Organization in the midst of a pandemic. That quit UNESCO. That threatened the ICC. That has quit almost every existing international treaty for nuclear peace - withdrawing from the Iran Nuclear Accord, the Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, the Open Skies Treaty, threatening the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, and talking about conducting a new nuclear test.

And Canada, shamefully, is doing part of its dirty work in the Meng case, as well as in its positions on matters as diverse as Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Iran.

I just saw in another news source, that the same dear old United States is now considering laying some kind of criminal charges against the wife of President Maduro of Venezuela.

Of course, only recently, they put a 15-million-dollar bounty on the (twice-elected) Venezuelan President's head.

Great country these days, the United States.
