 https://twitter.com/peacepivot 00:46:41 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Threat inflation is the Pentagon’s go-to narrative to justify increased military spending 00:50:20 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Check out K.J. Noh’s latest article, co-written by Michael Wong, in Asia Times: “China offers solutions to climate change”
 https://asiatimes.com/2021/11/china-offers-solutions-to-climate-change/ 00:51:27 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: If anyone talks about wet markets, point them to our butcher shops where the elite get their special cuts. Just sayin'... 00:53:15 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Ironically, white supremacist neo-Nazi groups in the US have been proven to have intentionally used COVID as a bioweapon against communities of color. American exceptionalism and projection 00:53:19 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: Love the tinfoil imagery.🤣😂🤣 00:53:32 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Tinfoil overload 😅 00:55:53 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: Jan Stoltenberg said China is getting too close to us. Think about how racist that statement is... 00:58:16 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: To see the last slide’s list of types of hybrid warfare the US is using against China again, see K.J.’s article, “The U.S. is Set on a Path to War with China. What Is to be Done?”

https://www.qiaocollective.com/en/articles/what-is-to-be-done 00:58:41 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Please feel free to submit questions for the panelists in the Q&A box/icon at the bottom of the Zoom window! 01:00:08 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: In Pakistan we used to call them Burger Families; who side with former and neocolonial powers. Burger as in they prefer burgers to kababs. 01:01:07 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: That is really interesting and funny, Fahim! Squid Games has its own take on neocolonial collaborators in Korea 01:01:57 Alvin Ja: Excellent presentation! 01:02:12 Peter T Lam: Wow. Great Talk ! 01:02:19 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Thank you K.J.!! 01:04:28 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: A VERY well funded propaganda campaign, funded by US tax dollars 01:05:11 Alvin Ja: yes, "Pervades" 01:07:38 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: So far our coalition has successfully prevented the EAGLE Act, which includes $7.5 B for military spending in the Asia-Pacific, from being voted on! 01:07:57 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Previously the public was not largely aware of this bill and other packages of anti-China legislation 01:08:34 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: Seriously, it's amazing, the power of propaganda by the MIC in the US, that we have to sell CINOE and No War With China RIGHT AFTER losing to a bunch of guys running around mountains in slippers. 01:11:26 Richard Black: Question for the excellent Panelists: The 100%elimination of extreme poverty and the irrefutable success of the BRI does have support in the US Mid-west -- Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, etc. -- I propose a fight to recruit/pressure local and state elected officials, there -- where the NY Times is hated -- to GO PUBLIC in a campaign for an economic and cultural collaboration with China, a win-win. The alternative to nuclear war. Please comment. 01:12:26 K. J. Noh: Great idea, Richard! 01:17:30 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Tell your Senator to vote NO on the $778 Billion Pentagon Budget, which is being justified by the inflated threat of Chna 👇 https://oneclickpolitics.global.ssl.fastly.net/messages/edit?promo_id=14385 01:18:00 Richard Black: I am a member of the US Heartland China Assoc. They report that local elected officials are supportive , but have been threatened and are terrified by the FBI, Pompeo, etc. Go into the City Halls and legislatures and force them to find their courage... Is standing up not preferable to a nuclear exchange with China over Taiwan??? 01:18:05 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Questions for the panelists can be submitted in the Q&A box/icon at the bottom of the Zoom window! 01:18:34 Alvin Ja: An outstanding finale for this 9-session Webinar. Thanks, KJ and Sheila. We must fight against the tide of lies/propaganda. 01:18:34 Peter T Lam: Miss Xiao, Very well presented. Bravo! 01:18:58 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Thank you Sheila! Powerful summary of the US imperialist propaganda machine and of the building momentum of the peace movement! 01:19:27 K. J. Noh: 152 Trillion extracted from the global south since 1960: https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2021/5/6/rich-countries-drained-152tn-from-the-global-south-since-1960 01:19:46 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: You can read Pivot to Peace’s recent statement on Why President Biden Must Abide by the “One-China Policy” and Stop Meddling in the Affairs of China-Taiwan Relations here:

Very passionate ☮️ 01:20:49 Alvin Ja: Echo chamber 01:21:43 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: Hi Richard. That's a very interesting point. Which groups in IA, KS and MO are rooting for the success of BRI? 01:22:06 Alvin Ja: Caitlin Johnstone, Nuri Vitachy are good at exposing MSM distortions and lies. 01:26:50 Richard Black: To Fahim: For instance, my organization, The Schiller institute, also, the USHCA, US Heartland China Assoc., The Carter Center for Peace. Please be in touch: richardblack1776@gmail.com 01:27:32 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: Great. Thanks Richard. 01:27:51 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: NED. National Endowment for Democracy. 01:28:44 K. J. Noh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tCuZu_U9rk My discussion about Xinjiang 01:29:01 Richard Black: My website: schillerinstitute.com 01:29:02 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: The US Innovation & Competition Act, which has yet to pass, would allocate $500 M for anti-China propaganda through the US Agency for Global Media including CIA cutout Radio Free Asia 01:29:05 Alvin Ja: NED supports destabilization all over the world. Venezuela, Colombia, Cuba, Nicaragua, Ecuador. 01:30:25 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: A question I have is: 
In what ways are the US’s claims about maintaining a “free and open Indo-Pacific” disingenuous? 01:30:59 Fiona S: super interesting! got to go now but very informative esp as Chinese diaspora in the UK ! thank you everyone 01:32:11 Jeffery Hull: Yes 01:32:21 Jeffery Hull: Madison 01:34:25 Jeffery Hull: 😎 01:34:27 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Thank you KJ! 01:35:24 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Please join Tensions Over Taiwan: Preventing Nuclear War, a CODEPINK China Is Not Our Enemy & Mass Peace Action webinar tomorrow at 8 PM EDT with Carl Zha:

https://www.codepink.org/11182021 01:35:37 K. J. Noh: There's no such thing as "Freedom of Navigation". There is what is called "innocent passage". This does not apply to warships parading and threatening China on its doorstep. 01:36:14 LIZ REMMERSWAAL: Thank you Don, Madison and all the team for a wonderful series, much appreciated. Peace!! xx 01:36:22 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Thanks Liz! 01:37:26 Alvin Ja: Thanks to Coalition Peace Initiative's webinar series. We want peace, not Biden's foreign policy team's emphasis on confrontation with China. 01:39:00 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: As Eric Li said, China doesn't have an Evangelical approach as opposed to the West. 01:39:23 Holden Green: I don't like competition 01:39:54 K. J. Noh: China believes in peace, cooperation & win-win. It doesn't believe in interfering in other countries. It wants mutual development. 01:40:20 Alvin Ja: Yes, Fahim. It's the racist crusader mentality. 01:40:31 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: Replay videos and audio podcasts of all the webinars can be found in the Coalition Peace Initiative website (& will be emailed out by next week): https://www.coalitionpeaceinitiative.org/replay-files-for-webinar-series/ 01:40:52 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: To sign the Coalition Peace Initiative petition promoting peace with China, go to: https://www.change.org/CoalitionPeaceInitiative 01:41:14 Madison Tang, CODEPINK: ^ ++ 01:41:54 FAHIM SHIRAZEE: Thank you all.
