Arrested for doing a great trade deal with China. In 2012, a similar case came before Germany's Federal Court of Justice which found it was not illegal to exchange large quantities of such coins at the country's central bank, even if in that case they had been sold exported to be melted down for scrap. https://www.thelocal.at/20181206/austrian-court-upholds-acquittal-for-cashing-in-scrap-euros |

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-parliament-religion/china-official-says-west-using-christianity-to-subvert-power-idUSKBN1QT03C BEIJING (Reuters) - Western forces are trying to use Christianity to influence China’s society and even “subvert†the government, a senior official said, warning that Chinese Christians needed to follow a Chinese model of the religion. Onward Christian terrorists! Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. |

Well if these modern day crusaders get caught then they deserve all the punishment they get. |

It is difficult to ignore China. After a courtesy visit in Rome, president Xi Jinping has gone to Paris and ordered 300 Airbus planes, 290 A320 and 10 long range A350. China plans a Silk Road with two Italian ports as ends, Genoa and Trieste. Of course they are welcomed, since they bring traffic. Any time I order a spare piece for my HP computers and printers, they are all made in China. Somebody whose name I cannot remember has written that the major event in XX Century was "the awakening of China". Tullio |

Why the Left isn't constantly screaming bloody murder against both Capitalist China and their Western Capitalist 'partners' is the question.Maybe it's because most us sensible socially inclined people know where the root of all evil truly begins. ;-) |

Uighurs are a race? http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/gnxp/2008/03/uyghurs-are-hybrids/#.XLTBD9h7lQI I'd have thought though that the champions of Rump would welcome this tracking of Muslims, and see how it could be adapted to track "Mexicans" and Democrats and other "rapists" and "murders." I mean, it is more that the license plate readers we have deployed all over the USA? |

Interesting. So US tracking of US citizens isn't evil, while Chinese tracking of Chinese citizens is evil. Interesting set of prejudices and double standards on display. |

Interesting. So US evil should be given a pass, while Chinese evil must be called out. Interesting set of prejudices and double standards on display. |

But giving evil China a "pass" is neither correct nor moral.Neither is subsidising disreputable American companies. Boeing is a perfect example. :-) Hmm, wonder if the Chinese aircraft industry is just as disreputable? |

Where was that stated? Do you have proof that China (aside from using cheap labour) are just as disreputable?But giving evil China a "pass" is neither correct nor moral.Neither is subsidising disreputable American companies. Boeing is a perfect example. :-) |

No different than Western governments using surveillance/CCTV to spy on their own citizenry or the NSA spying on theirs. |

Not an answer to my post. Again, see no difference. America is constantly in the news with regards to racial profiling as are other Western countries. That des not mean I agree with it or you for that matter. |

Do you really comprehend & understand the English language? |
Sirius B Send message Joined: 26 Dec 00 Posts: 24882 Credit: 3,081,182 RAC: 7 |
The only difference to what you have posted & my replies is the fact that A.I has been used. With the surveillance/CCTV issues in the West, just surprised that China beat them all to the punch. Is that what is peeing you off by any chance? |

International condemnation which the International community is doing sweet fa about. Nuff said. |

The Chinese government has drawn wide international condemnation for its harsh crackdown on ethnic Muslims in its western region, including holding as many as a million of them in detention camps." The United States government has drawn wide international condemnation for its harsh crackdown on ethnic Central Americans and their separation of families, jailing without charges or representation, refusal to hold hearings, denial of consular visits, denial of basic human rights in filthy detention camps. 'nuff said! |

Why you refuse to condemn your Government which is doing this evil ethnic violence in your name. Seems you care more about China than the USA. Are you willing to put your money where your mouth belongs and actually do something about this evil? https://www.splcenter.org/support-us I doubt it. <ed>https://www.splcenter.org/seeking-justice/case-docket/southern-poverty-law-center-v-us-department-homeland-security-et-al |
