U.S. Independence Day should reflect on three decades after the Cold War

July 4 is another U.S. National Day, but as Americans commemorate their 245th Independence Day, they are left with a certain bitterness. After the epidemic has temporarily subsided, it is clear that internal economic and social conditions and the mood of the people have not yet fully returned to normal; at the same time, the United States is facing external challenges that have not been seen in the past three decades, but still lacks a systematic and effective strategy to deal with them.

After the end of the Cold War in 1991, the U.S.-led Western camp celebrated its victory over the former Soviet-led socialist camp; but thirty years later, a large number of people within the United States are openly defending socialism.

In 1946, the U.S. Embassy in Moscow sent back a “long telegram” that accurately assessed the inevitable long-term conflict between the U.S. and the Soviet Union, after which the Berlin Wall in East and West Germany became the front line of the Cold War. But after the Cold War, the U.S. imagined that the CCP would turn from a devil to a good friend, and the sound of gunfire and blood on June 4 did not awaken the U.S. to the fact that little was done about Falun Gong and the many human rights persecutions that followed.

In the past thirty years, it is not that the leaders of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) have been so clever, but that the American political, business, academic and media sectors themselves have been so misguided by the interests of the CCP, so confused by the CCP’s demonic words, that they have made mistakes and mistakes again and again, and have continuously given away their capital, technology and markets to the CCP regime; at the same time, the U.S. has allowed the CCP to drive in, and has continuously buried its own advantages. Most of the stalwarts of the U.S. Cold War generation have retired, and they are watching their descendants being eaten away by the CCP, yet their feeble cries are hardly heard.

The current U.S. administration has been forced to continue most of Trump’s anti-communist policies after being constantly redlined by the CCP, but political correctness has led them to remain squirming and so far unable to turn defense into offense as soon as possible in the confrontation. On the day of the CCP’s party celebration, there were also American media praising the CCP’s red rivers and mountains, and American companies describing their products as Chinese brands. The Communist Party brought down the Apple Daily in Hong Kong, and Western journalists have been unable to actually cover the story in Beijing, but most Americans walking through New York’s Times Square seem to have long lost their sense of the big propaganda screens leased by the Communist Party media.

For the past 30 years, the U.S.’s insensitivity and inaction have made the Chinese Communist Party leaders happy, and the current Communist Party leaders have repeatedly misjudged the situation, which is why they have dared to take a confrontational stance in the trade war, dared to move to seek hegemony by epidemic, and dared to continue to wreak havoc on Hong Kong and repeatedly provoke the U.S. openly.

In January this year, the Chinese Communist Party’s Xinhua News Agency published an article “On the fall of the U.S. “lighthouse”: deserved! which directly stated that the U.S. “has become a ‘failed state'”, “the U.S. is failing”, and “the U.S. is no longer able to lead the world “. Six months later, as the Chinese Communist Party continues to suffer from international isolation, its leaders are still shouting from the Tianmen Tower that they want the U.S. and the West to “break their heads in blood.

More than 620,000 people in the United States have died from the CCP virus, more than 50 percent more than the 405,000 people who died in World War II. Did Americans ever think that 76 years after World War II and 30 years after the Cold War, so many more Americans would lose their lives for no reason? However, the initiative to pursue the Chinese Communist Party for concealing the epidemic has never become a decision in the U.S. political circles and is still at the stage of virus traceability investigation. Faced with the CCP’s open provocation, the U.S. has so far been unable to quickly cut to the chase; on July 1, the CCP leader’s speech continued to tie the CCP to the Chinese people in a very brutal way: “Any attempt to separate and antagonize the Chinese Communist Party from the Chinese people will never succeed!”

Thirty years ago, the United States had won the Cold War against the socialist camp; thirty years later, the United States seems to have become ignorant of the dangers of socialism and the Communist Party, which I am afraid is the most important topic to reflect on in this year’s U.S. Independence Day commemoration.

The Chinese Communist regime will not voluntarily withdraw from confrontation with the U.S., nor will it voluntarily withdraw from the stage of history. If the U.S. fails to reflect deeply and implement an effective counterattack quickly, the Communist leaders will still do whatever they can to bring down the U.S., not to mention giving up their illusionary dream of world domination.

Whether Americans are willing to openly accept the Cold War initiated by the CCP or not, the United States has to face the biggest external challenge in three decades, and one of the main reasons for this challenge is actually in the United States itself. Most Americans have already admitted that the policy of engagement with the Chinese Communist regime has failed, so what kind of policy can succeed?

Thirty years ago, the United States was able to win the Cold War both because of the inevitable disintegration within the socialist camp and because of President Reagan’s firm implementation of a winning strategy. Today, the United States needs the same distinctive strategy to defeat the Communist regime, and on the occasion of America’s 245th Independence Day, this is the greatest test of American wisdom and courage.
