When China Invaded The U.S.

As the giant U.S. made airplanes smashed into Shanghai's Twin Towers, there were enormous explosions and the towers crumbled killing nearly 3,000 people. The world was aghast and promised to help China bring those responsible for this heinous crime to justice.

But China wouldn't listen and brutally invaded and occupied Canada, which they felt as a nation was responsible because the 19 perpetrators trained there. But the war soon spread to the neighboring U.S. as the militants quickly went south seeking a safe haven and a base to launch new attacks against China occupied Canada.

The Chinese began bombing those Canadian militants wherever in the U.S. they thought they were and sent their soldiers and their death squads forth as well. But as many U.S. men, women and children were being killed or severely injured and their communities destroyed, the U.S. president pleaded with China to stop.

But China ignored those pleas and instead sent $3 billion in military aid to the U.S. as it demanded the U.S. attack those Canadian militants. The U.S. did start attacking those militants but not to the satisfaction of the Chinese. During all this bloodshed, Americans began holding anti-China rallies and pressing their government to rid the U.S. of China.

Then one night, a Chinese death squad secretly invaded a compound just outside Washington, DC and killed the founder of the organization that 10 years earlier had sent those 19 militants to Shanghai. The Chinese president and its people celebrated. But as its president claimed this was the beginning of the end of those militants, those militants struck back hard in Canada and in the U.S and vowed to attack China again.

Meanwhile, the U.S. government and the American people were furious at China. But China ignored their fury and demanded the U.S. more vigorously attack those Canadian militants, even sending its Secretary of State and its top military official to insist upon it. At that point, U.S. - China relations hit their lowest point ever with Americans demanding their government rid themselves of China.

Dear Reader: My intent in sharing this story with you is to help us Americans to understand why Pakistan has such animosity for the U.S. and its military so that we can stop our brutal actions and end our wars of occupation. We are fighting a losing battle, costing enormous numbers of lives and bringing fear and loathing from our brethren in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iraq, as we bankrupt ourselves morally and financially in pursuit of a security we will never have by following this deadly path. Your voice is important. Please raise it for peace.
