China is a remarkable and admirable country in countless respects but it is ruled by a mafia of Mao&#8217;s making. It&#8217;s making totalitarianism and modern High tech work and using it to turn Hong Kongers, Tibetans and Uighurs in in the Silk Highway&#8217;s western Xinjiang Province all into Han Chinese. Rather like the way America took Indian children away from their families to turn them into Americans. So, we may a little internal reflecting to do ourselves but Trump&#8217;s double-edged sword of competition between our nations has ignited and jump started a contest that was probably inevitable.
