Pepe Escobar: All Roads Lead to Beijing
This is the tale of two pilgrims following the road that really matters in the young 21st century; one coming from NATOstan and another one from BRICS.

IF YOU HAVE TRAITORS IN YOUR TEAM, OF COURSE YOU WILL LOSE
Evict them.
Arrest them.
Trial them.
Hang them publicly.
Restore your values.
And mark this day in the calendar of everyone.
School children should be pissing on the shallow graves of your traitors, misleading your nation.
you would do well to list, cite, those you think as traitors.
"IF YOU HAVE TRAITORS IN YOUR TEAM, OF COURSE YOU WILL LOSE"
