By Chin Jin, published 10/2/2012

China will continue to vote against Syrian sanctions even if Russia submits to world pressure.

Such ignorant American propaganda about the complicated conflict in Syria will not help the cause of democratic reform in China. And closer to home:After Prime Minister Gillard provoked Chinese ire by agreeing to station American troops at Darwin, Foreign Minister Rudd has now further demonstrated subservience to American imperial interests by condemning the UN veto as “abdication of responsibility”, and announced further financial sanctions and travel bans against this “doomed” regime. Australia, in fact, has no diplomatic staff in Syria, and relies on the Canadian mission.Leslie

If Russia and china, are so interested in the welfare of Syria why are they not there doing something. It's easy to say no, and expect that to be the end of it. AU soil has nothing to do with China. There is an American base in the Phillipines.

Russia is there trying to do something by getting the Government and opposition to negotiate; but the 'rebels' flatly refuse , and the US, with an eye on Iran, is only interested in 'regime change'. Leslie

Iran does need regime change. To be ruled by someone that takes their instructions from a book is dangerous. A one man supreme leader is not good and even worse with atomic weapons, which openly says another nation deserves to be obliterated.

It is good that Russia and China are acting as a foil to Western Imperialism.This means that the oil will remain in diverse ownership and mor competition is good for us all.

Quote:-

.#...(To the) Chinese leadership it (population massacre) means something totally different. Human lives are a far lower priority than the sanctity and protection of the Party. Therefore, people’s lives are nowhere near as precious as protection of authoritarian power to the Chinese government. The superior cause of internal stability and thus priority on the maintenance of the autocratic regime serves as the highest political pursuit of the Chinese leadership…#.

...Australia be warned! The above quote lifted from this article, epitomises the danger of the current Chinese mentality, with its negative value and low priority view of human life; (a mentality extending historically beyond modern China). Chinese intransigence in the UN opposing UN sanctions designed to curtail Human Rights abuses of the Assad regime, should sound “alarm bells” in other ways within Australia. If anything does, Chinese intransigence on this issue, serves as example enough to pin-point the “chasmic” differences in acceptability, between the global systems of Democracy and Autocracy.

...I believe the presence of US military bases on Australian soil is a poignant and timely application to deterrent, directed towards the just and highly appropriate cause of self-defence; and “speaks without being spoken”, the continual need for a close American alliance, and their representation as a subtle reminder to China of need for thought, caution and consideration.

...The Chinese march to Global domination should not be facilitated by naïve political policies in this country, which assist them in their cause.
