The Chinese Empire Threatens the World
Charles R. Smith
Monday, June 13, 2005 Red Dragon Myth and Fact
The first and most dangerous myth about China is that it is the sworn enemy of the West. The Chinese people are not the enemy.
The hundreds of millions of peasants in the rice paddies and the working poor in the inner-city slums of China are neither evil nor bent on world domination. They survive day to day under the thumb of corrupt officials, powerful communist dictators and greedy warlords.
They look to the United States for freedom. They hope, like many who died in Tiananmen Square, to set up a freely elected, democratic government. They want to build a better world for their sons and daughters in the future. The real bad guys in China are limited to a few but very powerful elite. The Communist Party and the commanders of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) rule China with an iron fist.
