- Two terrorist attacks this month (June 2023) in Southeast Asia have been carried out by groups backed by the United States government and its allies for decades; - This includes a singer murdered in Myanmar and a series of armed attacks carried out on police stations in Vietnam killing 9 including several civilians; - British state media, the BBC, and US government-funded media platform Radio Free Asia have attempted to spin and even justify this terrorism as part of a much wider pattern promoting and defending terrorism as a means to counter China’s rise and punish nations working closely with China; - The opposition in Myanmar has openly been backed by the US and UK for decades - fighting to reinstall Aung San Suu Kyi and her National League for Democracy back into power; - In Vietnam, the ethnic Montagnards had fought alongside US invaders in the Vietnam War, and since then have worked closely with the US through the National Endowment for Democracy toward separatism; - Much of this context is omitted from Western state-media accounts of the terrorism; - Both Myanmar and Vietnam’s current governments have close relations with China. Vietnam, while depicted in the Western media as “anti-China,” has worked with China to build infrastructure within its borders and access Chinese rail projects to bring their products all the way to Europe; References: Radio Free Asia - Armed group attacks Vietnamese police stations, 39 people arrested (June 11, 2023): https://www.rfa.org/english/news/vietnam/dak-lak-police-attack-06112023231622.html Human Rights Watch - Vietnam: Free Political and Religious Detainees (2011): https://www.hrw.org/news/2011/04/07/vietnam-free-political-and-religious-detainees Falun Dafa - Teachings at the Conference in Switzerland Hongzhi Li September 4–5, 1998 ~ Geneva, Switzerland: https://en.falundafa.org/eng/lectures/19980904L.html Govinfo - US-Vietnam Trade Relations (June 15, 2000): https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CHRG-106hhrg71553/html/CHRG-106hhrg71553.htm BBC - Lily Naing Kyaw: Killing of Myanmar singer unnerves pro-military celebrities (June 6, 2023): https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-65820272 The New Atlas - Myanmar: US-funded Propaganda Spins Opposition Terrorism (2021): https://youtu.be/AOf7ShaDUc4 SCMP - SCO summit: China urges member states to ward off foreign-backed ‘colour revolutions’ (2022): https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy/article/3192817/sco-summit-china-urges-member-states-ward-foreign-backed MHRO - Achievements: https://www.mhro.org/about/accomplishments Where to Find My Work: Website: https://landdestroyer.blogspot.com/ Telegram: https://t.me/brianlovethailand Twitter: https://twitter.com/BrianJBerletic Odysee (YouTube alternative): https://odysee.com/@LandDestroyer:8 Rumble (YouTube alternative): https://rumble.com/c/c-1459863 Weibo: https://weibo.com/u/7726044004 ไบรอัน แฟนคลับ (Facebook): https://facebook.com/BrianThaiFanclub/ Line Group: https://lin.ee/JIxTpKe Gab: https://gab.com/BrianBerletic VK (Facebook alternative): https://vk.com/brianberletic How to Support my Work (and thank you!): Buy Me A Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/TheNewAtlas Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/landdestroyer PromptPay: 0851547235 Cryptocurrency Donations: Ethereum (ETH): 0xee6ed93c3adc474450011e9af22939a0b9b312c7 BitCoin (BTC): 1AfGnbmHxA6cy9YKUSxysXvpJPyecpBKrr Monero (XMR): 845TCXx3pchSBXuDL7FHG679gbWD2wkHS6MJxuq7jFVsVFj7T6xsry747uhhGZUdkaRXbbrMfo5c8RnGfzGZ13KxQUdHVLR

To those living in Western countries, beware that there’s local far-right elements that are deliberately created by the same types of front organizations (like the National Endowment for Democracy, Human Rights Watch, etc), and used as disposable proxies that function in the interests of capital. What we see happening outside the West will continue to emerge more prominently inside the West as our class struggle intensifies.
