China Displays Its Military Might in World’s Largest Military Parades

The mainstream media was enthralled with it all but goes ballistic whenever President Trump displays military prowess or emphasizes the importance of meeting with strong leaders like Putin.

The only patriotism the legacy media respects is that of our adversaries.

And while the media is celebrating, the fact is China’s President Xi is aligning himself with the rogues of the world.

Newsbusters noted the celebratory tone from elite media: CBS foreign correspondent Anna Coren hyped up the parade as a showcase of China’s “moment of glory” and a chance to show off their “newest military hardware.” She also pointed out that it was a great time for China to build alliances and show they could be a better partner than the U.S. (Newsbusters).

And, of course, the self-hating BBC (whose quisling staff would rather be speaking any language other than English)  touts the occasion:

“The stage is set in the heart of Beijing for a grand display of power and military might that has been choreographed by President Xi Jinping. Eight huge Chinese flags flutter and flank the portrait of Mao Zedong, the founder of Communist China, which sits on top of the Gate of Heavenly Peace overlooking Tiananmen Square, one of the largest public squares in the world. Below are rows of seats reserved for 26 foreign heads of state, including Russia’s Vladimir Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un, whose attendance is a diplomatic win for Xi…. Ostensibly the parade marks 80 years of Japan’s surrender in the war, and China’s victory against an occupying force. But it’s so much more than that for President Xi.”(BBC).

Xi at China’s Military Parade: “Chinese nation is unstoppable”

With Vladimir Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un among those joining Xi, it was quite the display of authoritarian adversaries of the U.S. Financial Times: Xi Jinping has capped a week of frenetic diplomacy by presiding over one of China’s biggest military parades, projecting his nation’s growing power in a show of solidarity with fellow strongmen Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un. A procession of China’s newest tanks, drones and missiles rolled past Tiananmen Square on Wednesday to mark the 80th anniversary of the second world war victory over Japan. The People’s Liberation Army showed off its latest weapons, including hypersonic missiles, with Xi hailing troops as a “heroic force” that should develop into a “world-class military” — implying a full equal to the US’s armed forces. The Chinese president said the PLA would “resolutely safeguard national sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity” — code for Beijing’s goal of gaining control over Taiwan. “The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is unstoppable,” Xi added (Financial Times).

The Foundation for Defense of Democracies saw a display of defiance: Chinese President Xi Jinping stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un at a military parade in Beijing as they attempted to project a united and defiant front against a U.S.-led world order. The trio were joined by leaders of more than 20 other mostly authoritarian nations at the parade in Tiananmen Square commemorating the 80th anniversary of the Allied victory over Imperial Japan. “Today humanity is again faced with the choice of peace or war, dialogue or confrontation, win-win or zero sum,” declared Xi, adding China is a “great nation that is never intimidated by any bullies” (FDD).
