Foreign Governments Are Exploting The Unrest In The U.S.



Washington Free Beacon: Foreign Propagandists Exploit U.S. Unrest

China compares Hong Kong activists to U.S. looters, as ex-Iran prez quotes Tupac.

Foreign propagandists are exploiting the death of George Floyd to question the legitimacy of the U.S. political system and deflect concerns about their own human rights abuses.

China, Russia, Iran, and other authoritarian regimes have offered wall-to-wall coverage of the Floyd protests and ensuing riots on their propaganda outlets, using the unrest to paint democratic systems as prone to turmoil. The propagandists—as well as top-level government officials—have also exploited the Floyd protests to smear specific pro-democracy or anti-regime movements within their own countries, associating the movements with scenes of chaos and disorder in U.S. cities.

WNU Editor: The Russian government has been rather muted. But China and Iran .... their propagandists are having a field day. But here is the punchline. If given a chance to immigrate to the U.S., most of the people in these countries will jump at the chance to move in a heart beat. Because they know that when compared to law enforcement and the rule of law in the U.S. to their country (i.e. China, Iran, Russia), it does not even come close.

Anon,
Sadly the world is a very different place when compared to the U.S. and other Western countries.

"Zero defects is referred to as a philosophy, a mentality, or a movement that aims to minimize the number of defects in manufactured products and service as much as possible. "

There has never been a perfect system.

If you vet all your police recruits and weed out any racists or potential racists, it does not mean that there won't be any racists in a police department or any other profession. But assuming that you could vet with 100% accuracy, the daily toil of the job where you interact with criminals and nasty people is a corrosive environment. Ongoing training and programs will help but again since no system is 100%, you will not achieve perfect.

What you do is obvious. You get rid of them, when you find them. Maybe Senator Klobuchar had a chance to do that, when she was a prosecutor. But she did not prosecute, because as a Democrat politician, she did not care or Chauvin was not guilty at that time (or this time). Klobuchar(D) for some reason has made herself scarce.

5:17. What some of us don't want to hear, is people like you screeching that it is all going to Hell when the trend has been trending toward perfection and when the levels are much better than in the 57 Islamic States, Latin America, Almost all of Asia. Europe is not as good as you might think and it is getting worse. But live you values and your rhetoric. Tell us how good Europe is and then move there.


I'll reiterate.

After you near perfect vetting system and you near perfect OJT, you get rid of them, when you find them. That is the best you can do, since there is no perfect system.

In the 1980s 1/3rd of Chinese student in the US never went back to China. Chinese still come to America in droves.
