China Wages Soft Take-Over of United States

China Wages Soft Take-Over of United States

by sage_brush

We all know the experience of being forced to buy "Made in China" products, because there is no alternative.  We can expect the squeeze to be even greater, as the Chinese government oozes into every facet of our economy and way of life.  To add to the outrage of our glorious leader selling our natural gas and oil to China [see Eowyn's article here] the communists are farther entrenched here than the SRM is reporting. But why?  Why is all the attention directed towards the Middle East, but none toward the Far East?  And why is the "red" carpet being rolled out for them? 

Take a look at these developments -

(CNN) -- China's Dalian Wanda Group and AMC Entertainment announced Monday a $2.6 billion deal to take over the U.S. theater group, forming the world's largest cinema chain, according to a new release on the deal.

The move is the latest in a raft of deals between U.S. entertainment companies and Chinese firms, linking the world's largest theater market with the world's fastest growing.

"This acquisition will help make Wanda a truly global cinema owner, with theatres and technology that enhance the movie-going experience for audiences in the world's two largest movie markets," said Wang Jianlin, chairman and president of Wanda.

Wanda, a private company that previously operated solely in China, generates $16.7 billion in annual revenue from its commercial development and entertainment businesses, the company said. The group owns 86 theaters with 730 screens in China.

"As the film and exhibition business continues its global expansion, the time has never been more opportune to welcome the enthusiastic support of our new owners. . .

WASHINGTON – Chinese officials are not amused with U.S. plans to collaborate with Asian allies to develop a ballistic missile shield to protect Asia, according to a report in Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin.

The Chinese claim that such a system will have a negative impact on global and regional strategic stability "and go against the security needs of the countries in the Asia-Pacific region," according to Luo Zhaohu, Asian affairs chief for the Chinese Foreign Ministry.

"The Chinese government always insists that countries should start by maintaining global strategic stability and promoting strategic mutual trust between major powers to handle the issue of missile defense prudently," Luo said without elaborating.

The Obama administration has been in discussions since March with officials from Australia, Japan and South Korea over an anti-missile system for the region.

It would be based on a U.S. "phased adaptive approach" to deploy a combination of land- and sea-based missile interceptors in the region. The "phased adaptive approach" is similar to the anti-missile system which the United States wants to deploy in Europe against a possible missile attack from Iran.

(Reuters) - China can now bypass Wall Street when buying U.S. government debt and go straight to the U.S. Treasury, in what is the Treasury's first-ever direct relationship with a foreign government, according to documents viewed by Reuters.

The relationship means the People's Bank of China buys U.S. debt using a different method than any other central bank in the world.

The other central banks, including the Bank of Japan, which has a large appetite for Treasuries, place orders for U.S. debt with major Wall Street banks designated by the government as primary dealers. Those dealers then bid on their behalf at Treasury auctions.

China, which holds $1.17 trillion in U.S. Treasuries, still buys some Treasuries through primary dealers, but since June 2011, that route hasn't been necessary.

The documents viewed by Reuters show the U.S. Treasury Department has given the People's Bank of China a direct computer link to its auction system, which the Chinese first used to buy two-year notes in late June 2011.

China can now participate in auctions without placing bids through primary dealers. If it wants to sell, however, it still has to go through the market.

The change was not announced publicly or in any message to primary dealers.

So is this a Chinese/communist takeover? Or is it something far more subtle?  I'll go with subtle. Communism is never subtle.   This is a NWO, One World Government takeover.  With the way things look right now - following  the advent of "Arab Spring,"  the formerly independent nations of the Middle East are now firmly in the grasp of international bankers.  Only China could be termed "non-compliant."  Only China is outside of the tentacles of the Central Bankers - but not for long apparently. 

The Chinese will soon be part of what we are part of -

The facility, being built at Utah's Camp Williams, was the focus of an extensive recent Wired article written by NSA expert James Bamford.

Under construction by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers contractors with top-secret clearances since January, the controversial, heavily fortified $2 billion Utah Data Center is slated to be up and running by September 2013. Its purpose will be "to intercept, decipher, analyze, and store vast swaths of the world's communications as they zap down from satellites and zip through the underground and undersea cables of international, foreign, and domestic networks," according to Bamford.

Flowing through its servers and routers and stored in near-bottomless databases will be all forms of communication, including the complete contents of private emails, cell phone calls, and Google searches, as well as all sorts of personal data trails—parking receipts, travel itineraries, bookstore purchases, and other digital "pocket litter." It is, in some measure, the realization of the "total information awareness" program created during the first term of the Bush administration—an effort that was killed by Congress in 2003 after it caused an outcry over its potential for invading Americans' privacy.  [wired.com]

 

As the Reuter's article stated - China is being allowed, for now, to buy US treasuries directly, without going through a "broker" (central bank.)  But,  [and it's a HUGE but] they can only buy independently - if they want to sell - they have to go through the broker!  Gotcha!  As Gollum would say, very tricksy. The Chinese'  overall greed, lust for power,  and overweening desire to spread their culture  will lead them right into the jaws of the beast, while simultaneously destroying our economy.  It's a two-fer.
