2. Can China find an effective response to the US hostility? The answer is: "Easy!" Before going into detail, let us read the following fable which may turn out to be one of my most famous copyright stories. Just kidding!
After a farmer received an eaglet as a gift from a friend, he kept it in a large cage beside his farm. For ten years, looking out from the cage, the "domesticated" bird could only see chickens and ducks and hear them clucking, crowing and quacking.
One day, the eagle managed to escape from the cage. However, instead of flying away, the eagle still loitered in the farm, clucking like a hen and crowing occasionally like a rooster. Two eagles happened to pass by and saw the bizarre behaviour of their species from high above in the sky. They flew down, and one of them spoke to the eagle: "Hi, friend! Why are you behaving like a chicken? Don't you know you are an eagle that can fly across the wide oceans and above the lofty mountains?"
The eagle replied: “To be honest with you, I don't know. I have never flown in my life."
The two eagles said: "Let us show you!" They asked the eagle to stand between them and open its wings. With one eagle placing its wing under the left wing, and the other eagle placing its wing under the right wing of the "domesticated" eagle, they lifted it high up into the sky. After a while, the two eagles told the "domesticated" bird that they would like to see it flying alone. Before it could answer, the two eagles flapped their wings and flew away.
The "domesticated" eagle plunged several hundred metres before it could steady itself and fly like a real eagle. Looking down below at the mountains and the sea, it felt an exhilarating sense of achievement and new beginnings. "Never before did I know I could fly so high!" It screeched excitedly.
3. I have come across a documentary television film about the Korean War in which a US war veteran recalled his horrifying experience in facing wave after wave of Chinese troops that poured across the Yalu River, pushing the US-led Allied troops all the way back to the south of the Korean Peninsula. The Korean War was the first historical combat between the US and China with modern arms, not bows and arrows.
How should China respond if the US goes ahead with its arms sale to Taiwan? As I have said earlier, the answer is "easy". It won't be a military response that will lead to human extinction. To put it simply, China should consider not to abide by the US unilateral sanctions against Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, Cuba and other countries. China should start trading with all the countries victimized by American imperialism and hegemony, particularly Iran which is a vital link in the Belt and Road Initiative. In order to avoid any US maritime disruption, China should consider trading actively with Iran by road, rail and air transportation.
4. On October 1, 1949 when Chairman Mao proclaimed the People's Republic of China, he declared "the Chinese people have stood up". Henceforth, all Chinese people should stand up once again against American imperialism and hegemony. Since the American imperialists and hegemonists like talking about "Tiananmen", China should consider building a Trump monument in Tiananmen Square as an expression of gratitude to Donald Trump and other US imperialists for enabling them to rediscover and renew their can-do attitude.
