oh wow....I saw another comment mentioning the same thing from his dad.

Yes, I was taught the same thing. It wasn't until just awhile ago, when watching a Sally Lockwood Mystery did I first hear and see that Victorian English were selling little white cakes of the stuff, like small white ingots with a raised crown on top. I was shocked at this revelation and had to go online looking for the truth. I thought if this was a fictitious invention, it was a whopper. Nope. Turned out to be true.

🤣🤣🤣 HSBC and Standard Chartered banks made fortunes. The British propaganda brainwashing the people....Justlike they did during covod, injections, the war in the ME, the war in UKRAINE... Nothing changes ... Greed corrupts politicians

and I was taught that the great wall of China was to keep them out of Mongolia. You can't trust them Chineses

oh wow reallly ? and they call the chinese people brainwashed by govt.

daym.. really makes you wonder about the propaganda being spread today

Using the media to brainwash is a common tactic used by warmonger governments to glorify their evil deeds. Another example is Japan. They don't know that their Japanese troops have killed tens of millions of children and innocent people in China and Southeast Asia. They even used chemical weapons against the Chinese people, just like Hitler massacred the Jews. But because Japan is under the control of the United States, all the evil deeds of the United States and Japan are covered up.

During the deadly riots in Hong Kong in 2019, ignorant parents finally discovered that their children’s schools had tarnished the history of the Opium War. The school textbooks claimed that the British government wanted to help the Chinese get rid of the opium trade, but in fact they systematically sold opium to the Chinese for the purpose of It was to colonize China in order to obtain abundant resources.

I hold a British passport and have lived in the UK for many years. No British people knew the evil committed by their ancestors. All of them firmly believe that Britain is a great country that upholds human life and freedom, and brings peace and prosperity to the world. Americans are no different, they strongly believe they are the righteous ones, others are evil.

This will give China a huge advantage in the longrun, more and more people are becoming addicts in Western countries nowadays.

Well, they are giving pay back. As Nearly all fentanyl precursors come from China. These precursors are then made into fentanyl. But it doesn't stop there. Companies in China also manufacture other synthetic or man-made drugs-that make the fentanyl threat even more addictive and even more deadly As we see on the streets of America today. Zombies.

What uk trading opium, yes

According to Lins associate, Wei Yuan, British plenipotentiary, captain Charles Elliot, had offered early on to help find a way to end the opium smugling trade, but Lin Zexy rebuffed him. Which, according to Wei was one major mistake at that time. One big misconception is about Lin Zexu confiscating opium from western warehouses. Which is rather incorrect. The opium was stored on ships ankered off shore, and when Lin launched his crack down, they just lifted anker and set sail for Manila, Singapore or the Dutch East Indies to wait it out. The only reason Lin was able to destroy 20 000 chests of opium at Humen, was because of Charles Elliot, who bought it from the opium dealers at market value, which they happily accepted, and then handed it over to Lin Zexu.

@@wolfu597 But then why was China ordered to pay compensation?

@@Walkthepath92 Contrary to belief, the biggest push did not come from the Opium dealers. It came from those that had nothing to do with the opium trade. When Lin Zexu launched his crack down, he effectively shut down the entire Canton trade, which affect everyone, opium dealers or not, and that lasted for weeks and weeks. As such, legal goods, worth way more than the opium that was destroyed, was left sitting on ships and in warehouses, and people who were dependent on the Canton trade for their livelihood, started losing money. Lins predecessor Deng Tingzhen, along with the man that would succeed him, Qishan, both said to him: Don' target the foreigners. Because many of the officials in the south, who had seen firsthand the ships, the thickness of their hulls, and their cannons, had strongly advised against pushing the foreigners too far.

They were looking for any reason.force China into a confrontation and make them into the bad guys…. And where it’s okay to keep selling China opium in return for its treasures And seriously doubt a person like him or anyone else Is going to believe these days, the Chinese selling their precursor drugs for fentanyl/or fentanyl itself to Mexican Cartels that eventually make it to the USA That the Chinese get to wash their hands of it

@@outdoorscholar6016 You have got to be joking. The mainland had no jurisdiction, China ceded Hong Kong Island and Kowloon on the peninsula in perpetuity, only the New Territories were leased for 99 years. Britain founded Hong Kong city and built it from nothing to become one of the largest manufacturing economies in Asia by the end of it's time as a British Empire colony. Hong Kong was then a British Dependent Territory and Commonwealth member. In the 1984 Sino-British Joint Declaration the UK agreed to transfer it in 1997 and China would guarantee Hong Kong economic and political systems for 50 yrs. The agreement "triggered a wave of mass emigration as residents feared an erosion of civil rights, the rule of law, and quality of life". "Over half a million people left the territory during the peak migration period, from 1987 to 1996" . Seems they're still not happy about it now.

The British Empire was not of the British The rise and fall of the opium-fueled Sassoon dynasty, the ‘Rothschilds of the East’ In ‘Sassoon,’ Prof. Joseph Sassoon tells how his distant family of Baghdadi Jews fled to India and built an empire on the legal narcotics trade, hobnobbing with the British royals They established a global business empire that stretched across three continents, and became friends and confidants of Britain’s aristocracy and royal family. But the Sassoon dynasty, which made its millions as traders in opium, cotton, tea and silk, stemmed not from London, Paris or New York - but Baghdad. The family’s meteoric rise and equally dramatic fall is told in gripping yet meticulous detail by history professor Joseph Sassoon in his new book “The Sassoons: The Great Global Merchants and the Making of an Empire.” (A Hebrew edition will follow in June.) It’s not simply a tale of refugees who came to be known as the “Rothschilds of the East,” but also of bitter family disputes, trailblazing female pioneers and a legacy carelessly squandered. “Think ‘Succession’ with yarmulkes,” as the New York Times recently put it. The story begins with David, the dynasty’s founding father, escaping Ottoman Baghdad for Iran in the late 1820s. The son of Sheikh Sassoon ben Saleh, a long-serving former chief treasurer to the city’s pashas, David had been threatened and held hostage by Baghdad’s notoriously greedy and rapacious governor. When the aging Sheikh, once “the most eminent Jew in Baghdad,” joined him soon after, it capped a remarkable fall from grace for the family. For Joseph Sassoon, the story of their exile from Baghdad - one echoed by his own family fleeing the Iraqi capital during Saddam Hussein’s brutal rule - sparked a connection to his distant relatives. “That sense of looking for security, longevity and stability is so ingrained in anyone who was a refugee,” he tells The Times of Israel.

❤ Reincarnation is real. It is spoken about throughout all religious texts. The teachings of reincarnation were suppressed, especially in the West. Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah. The Messiah reincarnated in 1971 to try to save humanity. Julian Assange is the Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth reincarnated. Julian exposed the lies and deception of the world governments via Wikileaks. Julian also exposed the killing and destruction of the Muslim/Arabic world and its inhabitants by the Western governments. The Romans and Jews are once again attempting to crucify our Messiah, and again, our hands are tied, and we are being prevented from stopping his crucifixion. Reread the Wikileaks drops and learn about Julian, it will become very clear to you what is taking place. The war in Gaza between the Palestinians and the Zionists was predicted and exposed before it even started (and has been ongoing for many years with the help of the West). So yes, to answer the question, the second coming of Christ is happening and has been since 2012 when Julian Assange went into the Ecuadorian Embassy in the UK.

Lifted 800 Million people from poverty in 40 years; the fastest economic growth in history of humankind. 6. Rose up to be an economic hegemon in the present that will surpass USA in a matter of a few years from now (alredy bigger by PPP)

@@yiluis1316 ummmm.. Because it is in my opinion? And China will be lucky not to crumble into tiny pieces in the next five years. It is a 1/4 of the US economy and while its rise has been dramatic, it is in deep financial trouble. Major business backed by the government, especially in the real estate sector are in bad shape. The Chinese people have the majority of their savings in that sector. They have bet the farm on our stupidity about green energy and have cornered the market on rare Earth minerals, even as we seek and are finding them. They have actually made any new technology im the last 60 years, they have stolen it-ever practical. They are destroying their own environment building new coal plants for electricity-what is it-two a week? Their wages are artificially low and prosperity has not reached the whole populace. They are guilty of slavery in the Xin Jiang province with the Uyghur population. They have no real natural resources and stuggle even today feeding their own population. And that population is geriatric and because of a fundamental refusal to mix with other races, cannot be suplemented easily. There are not enough women. The one child policy saw to that. They must have a million man army to keep all of those young and single men as busy as possible. Xi Jeng Ping has expanded his empire rapidly-especially in the realm of debt slavery in Africa and Latin America, and while welcomed by leadership-the are far from loved by the native populace who work for them. Yes of course you have a navy that is currently bigger than ours, but it is not yet capable of matching our blue water Navy. Xi is unlikely to be aware of the rot that inevitably exists at the core of every Communist system, and you can’t steal your way into being the equal of the US economy. We have our share of problems and they are big, but our flexibility makes it less likely that we would crash as hard as the CCP. Xi has I think about 4 years left to make a big move before internal problems make it impossible for China to maintain a huge presence on the worls stage. We are all headed for a big crash - as we are financially over extended and entirely too dependent on the symbiotic relationship between ourselves and China. But when was the last time China had to make a marketing trip the the US to in essence, beg US businesses to invest in China? That was new and unusual. What’s not so new is that in the last 10 years, more and more US businesses are moving out of China. Number 1 they don’t like having their technology stolen-get a load of those new copies of the Boeing jets. 2. Shipping costs are rising so high that it is becoming more feasible and economical to bring manufacturing back to this hemisphere. There are many reasons why China can claim middle kingdom status, but it will never be the power it was in Ancient times. A threat, always. And by the way, it could never have lifted itself out of gross poverty without the help and support of its major rival, and much underestimated enemy, the United States of America. And despite our current dolt of a leader China should not attempt to expand too far, nor should it attempt to take Taiwan. The battle would be bloody, but in the end the US would win.

They haven’t created any real new technology in 50 years. They just steal it.

It's pretty clear what parallels you're alluding to. The DIFFERENCES are far more striking though 1) the American corps buy fentanyl of their own free will, they were never forced to by the end of a gun 2) China then and as now makes everything cheap. They do not need to sell you drugs, they merely make pharmaceuticals your companies profit from 3) then as now your hatred is driven by sinophobia.
