As China Takes of UNSC Pelosi Drops Taiwan From Press Release Amid Threat of Shoot Down

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book
BBC - Honduras - CIA Trial Book - NY Mag

SDNY COURTHOUSE, July 31 – Will she or won't she? Nancy Pelosi has omitted Taiwan from her press release of her - and others' - trip to Asia.

This happens as China takes over the UN Security Council on August 1 (after already controlling the UN Secretariat through Antonio Guterres for six and half years). 

 While at the UN China bloviates about peaceful resolution of conflicts,  Xi Jinping warned Biden in a phone call on Thursday that Washington should abide by the sleazyly UN endorsed (and misnamed) "one-China" principle and "those who play with fire will perish by it."

 Hu Xijin, former editor-in-chief of state tabloid Global Times -- Guterres gives numerous large offices and repetitive noon briefing questions to Chinese state media, while banning Inner City Press -- wrote on China's Weibo, another UN-favorite propaganda platform:  "I've conveyed the message: if the U.S. military sends fighter jets to escort Pelosi to Taiwan, then the move would take the vile nature of such a visit to another level, and would constitute aggression. Our fighter jets should deploy all obstructive tactics. If those are still ineffective, I think it is okay too to shoot down Pelosi's plane."  

Nice.

Also on the trip: Chairman Gregory Meeks, Chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Chairman Mark Takano, Chair of the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs  Congresswoman Suzan DelBene, Vice Chair, House Ways and Means Committee, Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, Member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence; Chair of the Subcommittee on Economic and Consumer Policy of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform Congressman Andy Kim, Member of the House Armed Services Committee; Member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. 

Any word from Guterres? None at all. Watch this site.
