The background leading up to the desperate Hamas Operation/
Israel's final solution for the Palestinians.

There is a bug in modern international law, that is, intentionally causing people in other countries to starve to death does not constitute a violation of human rights, nor does it constitute massacre.

This creepy anti-humanity BUG was developed by Israel with great pains.

Do you know that the inventor of modern terrorism is Israel? It's not without reason that we associate Mossad with assassinations and terror attacks. It's in their DNA.

In the 10 years before Israel was created, from 1937 to 1947, Israel launched at least 50 major terrorist attacks, blowing up 814 civilian aircrafts, two trains, one ship, and razing 385 Arab villages to the ground. Note that the above are only "major" terrorist attacks.

Between 1947 and 1949, Israel attacked major Palestinian cities, destroying some 530 villages and killing some 15,000 Palestinians in a series of mass atrocities, including dozens of massacres.

On April 9, 1948, Zionist forces carried out one of the most notorious massacres of the war in the village of Deir Yassin, on the western outskirts of Jerusalem, where more than 110 men, women, and children were killed by the Zionist militia of the Irgun and Stern Gang.

During this period, 750.000 Palestinians were driven from their homes and became refugees in their own ancestral land.

Refugees have the right under international law to return to their displaced homes and to recover their property. So Israel's current occupation of Israel is illegal.

If you feel that these cold numbers are meaningless, let's look at more detailed descriptions and look at some "small terrorist attacks" that are "insignificant".

On December 11, 1947, Israeli terrorists threw bombs into a bus full of Arabs from a truck, killing six Arab civilians on the spot and injuring more than 30 people.

This kind of terrorist act was carried out on a daily basis by Israeli terrorists at that time, "insignificant" trivial incidents randomly picked out from historical records. Bombing Arab buses was as casual as eating and drinking. Only bombing planes, trains and ships can be called "Big Terrorist Attack". Israel is the father of modern terrorism. Later, all terrorists were inspired by examples set by Israelis.

With this forceful means of expressing "protest", Israel's demand for statehood was finally met by the United Nations, and the Israel state was successfully established in 1948. It was assumed that Israelis would stop such terrorist attacks once they are given a state.

Before the founding of the Israel state, 14 passenger planes were bombed, but those were all planes parked at the airport, so not much of a challenge for the Israelis.

The first terrorist attack in human history to hijack a civilian airliner was invented by Israel. In December 1954, Israeli terrorists hijacked a civilian airliner in Syria and this form of terrorism was born. However due to the systematic suppression of unsavoury terrorist acts carried out by Israel, these acts are now associated with Islamists. It's very likely that Mossad organized the "brilliant" 911 in cooperation with CIA.

Only after strong condemnation from the international community and having won several Middle East wars with the support of the United States and having gained numerous advantages (US military aid, hundreds of billions of USD worth's compensation from Germany) did Israel begin to become more "respectable" and endeavored to cultivate its image. Israel's genetic impulse to engage in terrorist attacks was temporarily put on hold for a while. After all, Israel has become a strong power from a once weak ethnic group. The PR cost for terrorist attacks was too high. (Thread will be continued)

Video: Gaza after Israeli bombings
In order to quell the terrorist attacks launched by Israel in the Middle East, the United Nations announced the partition plan for Palestine and Israel, allowing Palestine and Israel to establish separate states.

According to the 1947 United Nations resolution, the Israelis, who constitute the minority, were allocated 57% of the most fertile, the most strategic part (coast etc) of the land in Palestine. Whereas the Palestinians, who constitute the majority, were allocated 43% of the poorest part of the land of Palestine. One can only say that the Israeli lobby combined with Israeli terrorism was powerful and effective.

This land distribution plan was already very unfair, but the Israelis were not satisfied. Over the years, they have invaded almost the whole Palestine step by step through encroachment. As you can see on the maps of Israeli expansion between 1946-2000, it's spreading like a virus. Now almost the entire Palestinian area has turned white, like the White Lung disease, the organ being completely infected by a virus.
Image
How have the Israelis managed to grab more than 90% of Palestinian land in the past half century?

Believe me it's not through democracy, love and justice, but through violence and massacre/genocide.

Israel has massacred countless Palestinian civilians over the years. Violent beatings and killings are commonplace, and there have been many cases of openly shooting Palestinian women and children on the streets.

These Palestinians are all massacred by Israelis. The Bucha massacre in Ukraine is fake, but these massacres are real and well recorded and have happened again and again.

Protected by western governments and media, Israelis gained a moral pass to mass killings with perfect impunity.

This habit of killing Palestinians culminated in the killing orgy of the Beirut Massacre in September 1982. The Israeli army blocked the Beirut refugee camp and carried out a horrific massacre that lasted 40 hours. A large number of women were raped and executed, and many boys were castrated and executed. Some Palestinians' scalps were peeled off, and some corpses were carved with crosses.

Image
Image
These atrocities triggered strong protests in many countries around the world.

On December 16, 1982, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution, condemning the massacre and characterized it as ethnic cleansing.

Israeli Defense Minister Ariel Sharon claimed responsibility for the massacre and resigned from his post.

Thanks to Israelis' twisted values, Sharon became a national hero because of this massacre, and was elected as Prime Minister of Israel in 2001. So Israel had a mass murderer as their prime minister and are proud of it. So in order to succeed in Israeli politics, one must kill Palestinians. Israeli prime ministers who don't want to kill Palestinians will be assassinated.

Today Israeli settlements are whitewashed and beautified into these pastoral outposts in the desert. In reality, they are Israeli invasion strongholds, all of which were force taken from the Palestinians by armed troops without spending a penny, and then retired soldiers were allowed to live in them as a reward for their services.

All Israelis are soldiers, and all adult men and women have been trained in gun shootings. They are also allowed to legally hold guns, and weapons and ammunition can be purchased at will. Those who are serving are responsible for driving tanks around to grab land, while those who are retired are responsible for actually living in a house full of rifles and settling on the stolen land, and are responsible for driving away Palestinians who want to go home, forming a perfect closed loop.
So in the end, every Israeli has a stake in killing and making disappear Palestinians. They are living on stolen land and homes. If Palestinians come back, they lose everything. Remember, every adult Israeli is a soldier entitled to kill Palestinians with total disregard of international law.

However, Sharon's forced resignation shocked Israel greatly. From that day on, Israel restrained itself a little bit and reduced frequencies of extreme violence/massacres to suppress the Palestinians. Israel began to pay attention to "international perspectives" and engaged in international Israeli beautification campaign on a large scale. The famous Israeli "publicity fees" to improve their image began at that time.

Since 1982, Israel's direct massacres of Palestinians began to decrease rapidly. Since 2008, only 150,000 Palestinians have been killed or injured by Israel, of which only 33,000 were Children NO sarcasm is intended here. These figures are far smaller than those prior to 1982.

But Israel’s uncontrollable thirst for Palestinian lands is not quenched. And conquering more land means conflict and killings.

In the end, Israel has managed to occupy almost all of Palestine's land, and there's not much place left for Israel to invade. Israelis intend to replicate the model of the first European settlers on the American continent. In the end, 95% of native Americans were killed and the remaining 5% live on "reserves". This is the end scenario awaiting the Palestinians.

The major problem is how to permanently drive the Palestinians away. Israel's desire is to retain the land but get rid of the population as the European settlers did on the American continent,

Israel is no doubt the aggressor. Palestinians are entitled to armed resistance. Unfortunately, Palestinian resistance movement has already failed. Israel has de facto taken full possession of nearly all the Palestinian land.

If Israel had treated Palestinians with decency, most Palestinians would have resigned to their fate and aspire to a peaceful coexistence.

But Israel doesn't want the Palestinians, much less the Palestinians to vote, otherwise the Palestinians, who are the majority population, would outvote the Jews.

Israeli law explicitly states that Israel is an exclusively Jewish state, and that is the underlying tenet of all Israeli laws.

Palestinians are not Jews and cannot become Israeli citizens. If they can't be assimilated, they will be a danger to Israel sooner or later. However the Palestinians who have survived the past massacres can't be openly mass-murdered, so what can Israel do?

Many Palestinians continue to stay in their ancestral homeland even after everything has been destroyed, in the hope of regaining their former homes one day. War torn Middle East has given rise to refugees entering Europe massively creating multiple waves of refugee crises, but Palestinians are not among these fleeing refugees to the great annoyance and disappointment of Israelis.

In order to completely expel the Palestinians, Israelis forcefully herded a large number of Palestinians into the Gaza Strip, a small strip of 350 km2 around which they built a 10-meter-high fence and then sent Israeli soldiers to patrol it day and night.
The population density of the Gaza Strip is already three times that of the city of Beijing, and Israel continues to send in new Palestinians, so many that it is impossible for them to produce enough food on their own through agriculture on that small piece of land, and there is no industry. The Israeli army has sealed off the entrances and exits of the Gaza Strip, restricting the entry of goods. Not satisfied with turning the Gaza Strip into a prison camp, Israelis bomb Gaza from time to time to destroy Palestinians' confidence in building up its economy.

Later, to justify Israeli bombings of Gaza and other atrocities, Israel helped to create Hamas.
Image
The tiny Gaza Strip had become a de facto Nazi concentration camp. There's no way that Israel will let Palestine become an independent country.

To prevent the Palestinians from getting enough food, Israel had even used warships to blockade the Gaza coast and limit the extent of Palestinian fishing.

Then Israel left a wide opening in Gaza leading to Egypt, enticing encouraging the starving Palestinians to flee to Egypt as hunger refugees.

This is the "strategy" that Israeli think tank has come up with after studying international law to forcibly remove Palestinians legally.

Starving a human being to death is not a human rights violation, nor is it a massacre, let alone starving a person to death while humanitarianly allowing the person to flee.
In 2022, the United Nations launched a vote on the proposal "Food as a basic human right".

It may seem strange to the casual observer that having food to eat is not a basic human right. Is it necessary to organize such vote at the United Nations? What a strange resolution!

When you see Politicians haggling over seemingly pointless concepts, please suspect that every move is meaningful.

This seemingly boring vote is designed against Israel because Israel is forcing Palestinians to flee out of Gaza by mass starving them to death. If the UN passes the "basic human right to food" resolution, then Israel's attempt to starve the Palestinians to death will be qualified as a human rights violation. Starvation can no longer be used to "legally" eliminate Palestinians. Forcing Palestinian to flee out of hunger will be human rights violation.

#Israel is not stupid, and saw at once that this proposal was aimed at Israel's final solution for Palestinians.

However, it was obvious that if such a proposal was justified to the extent that no sane human being could possibly oppose it, the number of those who will vote for it was bound to be overwhelming. It was useless for Israel to oppose it alone. As usual, in time of crisis, Israel immediately seeked the help of the United States, its protector forever at its beck and call. As can be expected, the US killed the proposal by using the US right of veto.

The final result of the vote was 186 votes in favor, 5 abstentions and 2 votes against (US &Israel).

Why, I'd like to ask the U.S. and Israel, isn't the right to food a basic human right?

After having obtained the negative vote of the United States, Israel, in a state of euphoria, decided to intensify its efforts to starve the Palestinians out of Palestine before it was too late.

Further, Israel had come up with a new tactic. They declared that Palestinian wells used to irrigate agricultural land were illegal constituting thefts of Israeli water resources and must be sealed off immediately.

Israel then resorted to violence and forcefully filled the Palestinians' wells with cement one by one in order to minimize the Palestinian food production.
On October 7, 2023, following the launching of rockets, Hamas death squad members passed through the Israeli ground blockade line by means of improvised paragliders, drifted into the rear of Israeli bases armed only with light weapons and attacked.

If they lose, they will not be able to escape, and if they win, it will be very difficult for them to escape either. Death awaits them.

This is the Israeli home front, the blockade lines are overlapping, you have to paraglide to get in. Hamas does not have the ability to hide them afterwards, . and when they land, they are surrounded by Israelis who are all soldiers. Every family has plenty of weapons and ammunition, and there is a military stronghold every few kilometers.

So after a wave of attacks it was a matter of survival for a few hours or days, and it was almost impossible to get out of there alive.

Why do so many Hamas operatives enter Israeli territory knowing full well that they will almost certainly die?

It's because of that little (looks undernourished) Palestinian girl whose home was destroyed. This little girl was saying in the video that when she grows up, she will trample the Jews under her feet and kill all of them. If you call this Palestinian little girl a terrorist, then what word do you use to call the Israelis?

These Hamas operatives are her brothers who have grown up.

It seems the Israelis and the whole West have forgotten to ask themselves the basic question, why do Palestinians hate Israelis?

They hate Israelis because the latter treated Palestinians as the Nazis treated Jews.
For the Hamas, there's no future in the Gaza Strip, but sacrificing your life for your family is not a terrible thing. It gives meaning to your life.

It's time to declare that any Israeli occupation of Palestinian land contrary to the borders of the 1947 United Nations resolution is illegal.

According to the UN resolution, the Palestinians have the right to armed resistance to fight aggression. Palestinians should have the right to food,
they have the right not to be massacred and imprisoned. They have the right to regain their lands and homes.

The guiding principle of the Israelis is the same as that of the Nazis.

Netanyahu wrote:
"The weak crumble, are slaughtered and are erased from history while the strong, for good or for ill, survive. The strong are respected, and alliances are made with the strong, and in the end peace is made with the strong."

This is might is right. Yes, Israel and the US and the western zionists elite who dominate the west are mightier than anyone for the last 70 years. Their combined forces seem to be invincible. However China is coming. Once the US hegemony is toppled, without the support of the US, Israel won't be able to push through their final solution for Palestinians. Maybe that's why they "allowed" Hamas to launch a massive attack on Israel to create a pretext to eliminate Gaza?

Remember the Gaza Strip is a prison under tight surveillance, thousands of missiles can't be moved into the prison without being noticed.

That's why the western zionists ruling class is scared shitless of the rising of China. They should be.

Maybe there's hope for Palestinians.

Lao A: China's Social Media Scheherazade telling One Thousand and One Night Stories of Horror of America to the Chinese Audience

In the flickering digital shadows of the Chinese internet, a new literary phenomenon has taken hold. He is known only as Lao A (牢a), a phantom storyteller who never shows his face, yet possesses a voice that has hypnotized hundreds of millions. To his listeners, he is the new Scheherazade - a modern One Thousand and One Nights narrator. His tales are less entertaining than the ancient magic; they are macabre chronicles of the "American Hell."

​Lao A’s popularity stems from a haunting literary eloquence that strips away the American veneer of respectability and hypocrisy - a mask the country has spent a century perfecting. He reveals an underworld where the predatory American cabals treat the underclass with utter ruthlessness and cynicism.

​Do you know the true source of America’s dominance in biochemistry and pharmaceuticals? It is not talent alone, but the continued, systematic harvest of the American underclass that the machine deems "useless eaters". The United States has an abundant population of "human cattle", deliberately maintained in poverty and ignorance, for experimentation; it is, after all, the world's largest exporter of human plasma and human derived products: bones and tissues.

The US healthcare or rather biochemistry industry is literally a killing machine, and its laboratories - from the military outposts of Fort Detrick to the hallowed halls of Baltimore - are charnel houses where the poor are led to slaughter for a paycheck.

​To understand the weight of these stories, one must look at the institution that stands as the crown jewel of American medicine : John Hopkins university.

​The Immaculate Shadow: Baltimore and the Hill

Baltimore wears a mask of harmlessness - a quiet stage where a fatigued middle class clings to the last vestiges of normal life. Tree-lined streets soften the eye. Red-brick facades are scrubbed clean to catch the morning light. Everything suggests order. Everything suggests safety. Yet beneath this calm, the city runs a low fever.

The docks, once the city’s heartbeat, no longer sustain its families. Seasonal labor now governs life: three months of work, six months of abandonment. Time accumulates without purpose and begins to decay. In these long intervals, men drift toward drugs, gambling, and violence which have become routine. Strip clubs flicker like lesions along the streets, their neon signs pulsing through the night.

And rising above this slow, methodical deterioration - calm, immaculate, and untouched - stands the source of both Baltimore's prosperity and its most sinister horrors..

​To the international student, it is a sanctuary of discipline and data. But to the local African American community, it is something far more ancient, sinister and predatory. They look at the red brick and green copper roofs and see a monster that never sleeps. Unlike the infamous Unit 731, which history was forced to bury, this entity is legal. It is celebrated. It is funded by billions. It doesn't need to hide in a war zone; it hides in plain sight, protected by the "respectable" armor of federal grants and prestigious journals.

The Anatomy of an Afterthought: A Hospital That Birthed a School

​Johns Hopkins did not grow like other universities. It did not begin with the dusty pursuit of philosophy, the rhythm of literature, or the logic of law.

​It began with a hospital studying human bodies.

​A Quaker merchant - celibate, childless, and burdened by a vast fortune - bequeathed his wealth not to the pursuit of abstract knowledge, but to the brick and mortar of a hospital. The hospital was the mother; the university was the child. Here, medicine was never a mere department. It was the central nervous system. Everything else - engineering, public health, international relations - was grafted on later, like auxiliary organs stitched onto a beating heart.

​And that heart has never stopped asking the same, silent question like the unit 731:
How far can the human body be pushed before it finally breaks?

​There is a gravity to this place that defies explanation. Federal money pours into Hopkins in quantities that make the Ivy League, icons like Yale, look like beggars. It receives more federal R&D funding than MIT, more than the giants of California—Stanford, UCLA, and UC Berkeley—and far more than the institutions built in the very shadow of the White House, such as Georgetown and George Washington University.
​Billionaires like Michael Bloomberg offer their billions without hesitation, and university presidents do not simply retire; they vanish into the inner sanctums of the world’s gatekeepers—The Lancet, Nature, The Atlantic, Politico. They become the guardians of "Truth," ensuring no one asks how that truth was harvested.

​Consider the precision of the Great Plague. During the height of COVID-19, two students at Hopkins tracked the world’s infections with an accuracy that felt less like research and more like prophecy. But accuracy of that magnitude is never born from theory alone.

​It comes from data. And data comes from subjects who have no names.

The story below recounted by Lao A has happened again and again in real life and is still ongoing.
III/

The story below recounted by Lao A has happened again and again in real life and is still happening now.

The Boy and the Silver-Tongued Devil

​The young boy is fifteen years old, turning sixteen, standing on the precipice of a life he wasn't ready for. His girlfriend is pregnant. His pockets are empty. His job at the docks is gone.

​Then comes the stranger who approaches the boy in a bar. He is not a monster with fangs, but a spectacled gentleman with a soft voice and a sketchbook filled with anatomical drawings. Turns out he has been following and observing the boy for several weeks. He offers a deal that sounds like a miracle: $20,000 for two weeks of "observation." Downpayment of $5000 right away. To a boy with nothing, five thousand dollars in hand feels like the touch of God.

​He is driven to the "Clinic." The route is a labyrinth, designed to disorient, ending at a quiet villa on a hill. Inside, the air is heavy. The floorboards groan like dying men. On the walls hang oil paintings of Washington crossing the Delaware, but in the corners, the cold, blue eyes of holographic cameras flicker. It is a marriage of the 18th century and the 22nd - a place where time has been removed.

​"There is a worm in your brain. We will cure you for free." the doctor says with a sterile smile. "Drink this."

​The liquid is brown and sweet. The boy drinks. He is paid. He buys a car, he buys clothes, he even gives money to his pastor, thinking he has been blessed.

​The Harvest of Madness

​But the "blessing" has a half-life.
​Six months later, the world begins to warp. The boy sees pies crawling across the floor like insects. He sees ribbonfish floating through the air. He sees his dead ancestors waving from the clouds, and then, the sky begins to weep red rain.
​When the money runs out and the hallucinations take hold, the "Clinic" is waiting. The boy calls the Clinic. They tell him he took the medicine wrong. They offer him a "Level 2" project. More money. More sweet liquids - pink this time, or perhaps a deep, forest green. They subject him to "resonance therapy" and "sonic purging," claiming they are coaxing the brain-worm out.

​In reality, they are mapping the collapse of a human soul. He becomes a ghost in the street, dancing to music only he can hear, while the University's data points grow more precise. He is not a patient; he is a crop being harvested for the next breakthrough in biochemical warfare or high-priced pharmaceuticals.

Spain's Córdoba Tragedy and the Myth of Western Standards

On the evening of January 18, 2026, in the southern Iberian Peninsula, in the picturesque province of Córdoba, Spain, a catastrophic high-speed rail collision unfolded. Forty lives were extinguished within tens of seconds, reduced to fire, debris, and smoke. Dozens of families were shattered in that single moment at dusk. Eyewitnesses later described the scene as a vision of hell: steel folded into grotesque knots, blood staining the ballast red.

Yet what chills one more than the accident itself is the silence that followed.

One opens the BBC. One scrolls CNN. One checks AFP. Coverage exists, yes—but of what nature? Briefs written with softened language, humanitarian sentiment confined to rescue narratives, responsibility gently dissolved into the word “accident.” No interrogation. No systemic questioning. No technological autopsy.

One is compelled to make a cruel but necessary assumption. Had this collision occurred not in Spain but in China; had the derailed train not carried the Japanese Hitachi brand but China’s CRRC Fuxing—what would the global reaction have looked like? The answer is obvious. The international opinion field would already be ablaze.

Headlines would scream “China’s Technological Collapse.” Deutsche Welle would churn out essays on the price of "China Speed". Social media would drown in mockery of “Made in China.”

This is not conjecture. This is pattern recognition.

Why do forty European deaths merit only a few painless expressions of regret in Western media discourse? Why can a mere delay of minutes on China’s high-speed rail be elevated into proof of systemic failure? What interests lie beneath this asymmetry? Whose entrenched privileges has Chinese high-speed rail disrupted, triggering such reflexive double standards?

Today, those perfumed news drafts are set aside. The text below relies not on sentiment but on data - on hard numbers, engineering logic, and technical comparison - to dissect what is now known as the Córdoba tragedy. The task is simple: to examine what crawls beneath the sanctified surface of “Western standards.”

The clock must be turned back to approximately 6 p.m. local time on January 18. It was meant to be an ordinary weekend evening in southern Spain. Two trains were converging on adjacent tracks. One was operated by a private company, traveling from Málaga to Madrid. The other belonged to Spain’s state-owned operator Renfe, heading from Madrid to Huelva.

In theory, a modern high-speed rail dispatch system functions like a precision instrument. Trains remain strictly segregated. Physical intersection should be impossible.

But catastrophe is born in details.
At that moment, the rear carriages of the privately operated train suddenly derailed - without warning. The word “suddenly” matters. The inertia of the derailed cars turned them into uncontrolled projectiles. They breached the central barrier and crossed directly onto the opposing track.Image
II/

Twenty seconds later - only twenty - the oncoming Renfe train had no opportunity to react. Traveling at roughly 200 km/h, it collided head-on with the derailed carriages. The impact was devastating. Front cars were launched off the track, tumbling from a roadbed five to six meters high. Survivors described the sensation as akin to an earthquake of magnitude eight: luggage transformed into missiles, glass shredded faces, conversations ended mid-sentence as lives vanished instantly.

In the aftermath, Spain’s Transport Minister publicly acknowledged that the incident was “highly abnormal” and largely ruled out operator error. This assessment rests on three facts that make industry insiders uneasy.

First: the track was new. This section had undergone a full renovation and upgrade in May of the previous year. By all standards, it should have been in peak condition.

Second: the train was new. The derailed unit was a Fracturosa 1000 high-speed train manufactured by Japan’s Hitachi—also marketed as the Red Arrow 1000. Produced in 2020, it had been in service for less than four years. More critically, it had passed a comprehensive technical inspection just three days before the accident, with all indicators deemed compliant.

Third: there was no speeding. The section was a straight track with a design speed of 250 km/h. Both trains were operating at approximately 190 km/h. The most convenient scapegoat - overspeeding - was absent.

So where did failure originate?
Preliminary investigations uncovered a conclusion that leaves one speechless: multiple rail fractures were found precisely at the derailment point. More damning still, clear evidence of chronic wear was discovered at the rail joints.

This means the failure was not instantaneous. It had been accumulating over time, silently, like a tumor.

Months earlier, the Spanish Railway Drivers’ Union had issued formal warnings about infrastructure degradation and abnormal vibration along this line.

Those warnings disappeared into bureaucratic silence. Worse still, a track safety warning system touted as “world-class” remained inert during the critical 20 seconds following derailment. It detected nothing. It issued no emergency braking command. It functioned as ornamentation—present, expensive, and useless.

This is the reality behind the image of “rigorous European standards”: newly renovated tracks fractured, recently inspected trains overturned, and safety systems blinded. Yet Western media posed not a single sharp question.

Attention must now turn to the train itself.

In Western narratives, Japanese manufacturing occupies a sacred space—synonymous with craftsmanship and immune to suspicion. The Fracturosa 1000 was marketed as one of Europe’s fastest and most comfortable trains, Hitachi’s flagship entry into the European market.
Yet beneath this halo lie structural weaknesses.

Following the accident, media treatment of Hitachi bordered on indulgence. Beyond a brief statement pledging cooperation, no serious scrutiny of design choices emerged. But technical realities tell a different story.

First, the braking system. This model relies on a relatively traditional pneumatic braking architecture. Its emergency braking response time is approximately 1.2 seconds. At high speed, those 1.2 seconds translate into tens of meters of uncontrolled forward motion. Moreover, the braking system’s thermal dissipation design has long drawn criticism. Under sustained high-speed operation, it is prone to thermal fade—a weakness previously observed in overseas deployments and conveniently ignored due to the absence of catastrophe.
III/

Contrast this with China’s electro-pneumatic composite braking system. By integrating electric and pneumatic braking seamlessly, China’s system achieves maximum braking force within 0.6 seconds—half the response time, with braking efficiency roughly 30% higher. In high-speed rail, fractions of a second are not margins; they are destinies. Had such a system been in place, the outcome might have differed.

Next is signal compatibility. Europe’s signaling landscape is notoriously fragmented. National standards coexist uneasily, forcing rolling stock to operate across multiple modes. To accommodate this complexity, Hitachi’s design made compromises in signal processing.

China’s system operates on an entirely different philosophy. Trains, tracks, and dispatch centers form a single integrated organism. There are no translators, no intermediary layers, no latency introduced by incompatible protocols.

Yet within Western discourse, these gaps are invisible. When Japanese equipment fails, blame migrates to infrastructure or fate. When Chinese equipment succeeds, silence prevails.

To understand the collapse of the warning system in Córdoba, one must confront the congenital defects of European high-speed rail. While European standards are celebrated rhetorically, their implementation is fragmented.

Germany, France, and Spain maintain divergent systems. The EU’s push for ERTMS unification has been glacial.

As a result, during line transitions, systems often downgrade to legacy signaling - analogous to a smartphone oscillating between 5G, 3G, and 2G. Stability under such conditions is illusion.

In Córdoba, despite recent renovations, reports indicate that the line was not fully upgraded to ETCS Level 2. Instead, it retained components of older S8 digital systems. These systems monitor speed but cannot assess track integrity in real time. Rail fractures or foreign object intrusion remain invisible to them.

Compounding this, Spanish rail standards exhibit lower wear-resistance thresholds than French equivalents - explaining why severe wear manifested so rapidly on a “new” line.

These facts rarely surface in Western reporting. European high-speed rail is presented as a unified gold standard, while its patchwork vulnerabilities are carefully concealed.

If the same incident had occurred in China, it would have triggered a radically different Western narrative.

However, Chinese high-speed rail has reached a level of structural maturity at which such an accident has become nearly impossible in practice.

China’s CTCS Level 3 train control system represents a dimensional reduction in safety architecture. Independently developed, it links train, track, and dispatch in real time, with data latency below 0.1 seconds—three times faster than comparable European systems.

Upon detecting anomalies, it can issue maximum braking commands within seconds.
Its anti-electromagnetic interference technology reduces signal failure rates from 90% to 20%, even under lightning and extreme weather.

In practical terms, at equal speeds, China’s braking distances are 50–90 meters shorter than European equivalents. Those meters determine survival.
China’s inspection regime is equally decisive. Daily physical inspections are complemented by comprehensive inspection trains - the “Yellow Doctors” - capable of detecting 0.1 mm cracks at 350 km/h. Big data analytics flag risks before they metastasize. In China’s system, “operating with illness” does not exist.

Real-world performance confirms this. The Jakarta–Bandung high-speed rail operates in seismic, tropical conditions far harsher than Spain’s. In over two years, it has logged 560,000 km, transported more than 1.2 million passengers, maintained punctuality above 95%, and recorded zero safety accidents.

The Butterfly Effect of War: Why China Wins Other People’s Conflicts

​Every major war begins with a structural lie: the illusion that conflict is local, contained, and punishes only its intended target. The war in Ukraine shattered this pretense. It was intended to break Russia, yet it ended up weakening and fracturing Europe, causing the deindustrialization of Germany, and - most significantly - granting China a precious window of time.

​Beijing has used this "strategic opportunity" to neutralize U.S. sanctions on "chokepoint" sectors like semiconductors and advanced lithography. China has moved from being the world’s assembly plant to its premier high-tech laboratory, achieving a level of vertical integration that has effectively neutralized Western market leverage.

As the logic of escalation now drifts toward Iran, Western strategists operate under the outdated assumption that severing energy lifelines can stifle China. In reality, a large-scale conflict in the Middle East will likely accelerate the decline of the Western financial and industrial system while China emerges as the "Strengthened Survivor."

​I. The Iranian "Regime Change" Fallacy

​Israel and Washington recognize a reality they rarely vocalize: they cannot defeat Iran alone. Iran is a continental-scale state with a strategic patience forged by forty years of isolation. Consequently, the objective has evolved toward a regional escalation - a war large enough to internationalize the conflict and lock NATO into a system-draining commitment.

​However, the "regime change" narrative relies on a fatal misunderstanding of the Iranian people. While many Iranians harbor deep resentment toward the Khomeini regime, they harbor even more abhorrence toward foreign intervention. Having witnessed the "democracy" brought to Iraq and Libya, they know that externally incited collapse leads to ruin. Any plan predicated on an internal uprising triggered by foreign bombs will likely spark a wave of religious-Islamic nationalism that hardens resolve against the outsider. Iranians may hate their government, but they hate being "liberated" by the West even more.Image
II. The Fortress of Fluid: China’s Strategic Energy Reserve

​The belief that the West can "choke" China’s energy supply to stall it's AI and industrial development is decades out of date. Beijing has transformed its energy vulnerability into a massive, multi-layered fortress.

​As of early 2026, China has officially amassed between 1.2 and 1.5 billion barrels of crude oil—a historic high. This "Great Wall of Oil" is no longer just a 90-day safety net; it covers over 100 days of net imports. In a crisis where China invokes "demand reduction" - prioritizing its 50% EV fleet and high-speed rail while rationing fuel for military use - analysts estimate China could "hold the fort" for one to four years.

​This resilience is built on three pillars:

​The "Floating Fleet" & Opportunistic Buying: China institutionalized a policy of massive buying whenever global prices dipped below $70. In late 2025, floating storage in Asian waters tripled to a 3-year high, with over 70 million barrels—mostly Iranian and Russian oil—waiting offshore.

​Invisible Underground Caverns: A significant portion of these reserves is stored in massive underground salt caverns and rock galleries, such as the 195-million-barrel facility in Fujian. These sites are immune to satellite monitoring and harder to target than surface tanks.

​The Green Shield: By 2026, green energy accounts for approximately 50% of China's total energy consumption. AI centers run on electricity, not crude. With clean energy generation exceeding 3 trillion kWh, the power for China's high-tech heart is increasingly independent of global oil lanes.
III. Two Scenarios: The Breaking of the West

​Scenario A: The $20 "Supply Dent" (Mild Escalation)

​If Iranian and Venezuelan supplies are severed, the market must replace 10% of China's oil imports, triggering a $20 per barrel hike.

​The true casualty of a war with Iran will be the stability of the United States and Europe.

​The Affordability Crisis: Both Europe and the U.S. are at a breaking point. A surge in energy costs would ignite rampant inflation, deepening the existing affordability crisis for ordinary citizens.

​The Interest Rate Trap: High inflation makes it impossible for the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates. Buyers of U.S. debt will demand even higher yields, pushing U.S. national debt interest payments past the $1 trillion mark in 2026. Raising rates further to fight oil-driven inflation would break the U.S. economy.

​Industrial Flight: High energy costs have already gutted Germany’s manufacturing core, with giants like BASF and Volkswagen cutting local production. A $20 oil hike would cause the remaining European industrial base to collapse or relocate to more stable energy markets - most notably, China.

Scenario B: The $200 "Global Chokehold" (Violent Escalation)

​The true nightmare scenario lies in Iran’s geographic trump card: the Strait of Hormuz. As a continental power with a sophisticated arsenal of mines, anti-ship missiles, and swarming fast-attack craft, Tehran has the demonstrated capability to turn the world’s most vital energy artery into a graveyard for tankers.

​If Iran follows through on its long-standing threats to block the Strait or strike the vulnerable energy infrastructure of neighboring Gulf states, roughly 20 million barrels per day - a fifth of global supply - would vanish overnight. In such a vacuum, the logic of supply and demand collapses; as Supreme Leader representatives have warned, oil prices could realistically surge toward $200 per barrel.

​The Western Terminal Shock: For the West, this would not merely be an "energy spike" but a terminal economic shock. It would ignite rampant, double-digit inflation that would shatter the remaining purchasing power of American and European households, potentially leading to widespread civil unrest and a forced sovereign debt restructuring.

​The China Surplus & "Made in China" Antidote: Paradoxically, global dependence on "Made in China" will increase during this hyper-inflationary period. As Western production costs become unsustainable due to energy prices, Chinese exports of "industrial ingredients," spare parts, and consumer goods will become the only affordable antidote to Western inflation.

​The $1.5 Trillion Peak: Buoyed by its domestic energy sovereignty and the ability to continue manufacturing while the West grinds to a halt, China’s trade surplus is projected to soar to a historic $1.5 trillion. China will emerge not just self-sufficient, but as the world's sole functioning industrial "stabilizer" amidst the chaos. China will achieve a level of industrial dominance unprecedented in human history.

The American Weapon of Mass Destruction: the Invisible Execution Line that kills hundreds of thousands of Americans a year silently

This is a hot topic in China these days.

I summarize the main points below. Americans can tell me if it's true.

In the United States, there is an invisible line. You never see it marked on the ground. No siren sounds when you cross it. No announcement is made. But once you do, your life enters a closed system. A negative loop. A corridor with no exits.

In America, everyone talks about paying bills. It is a national obsession. Its medical bills are legendary. Dynamic pricing without limits. Giving birth can cost hundreds of thousands, even a million dollars. A single tooth extraction can cost more than a month’s rent. No ordinary person can possibly pay these sums—especially those who have already lost their job and, with it, their insurance.

If you cannot pay, the system does not pause. It does not negotiate. It eliminates. Slowly, mechanically. You are not punished in a courtroom. You are ground down by procedures, fees, astronomical compound interest, and deadlines until nothing remains.

This line is a survival threshold. Cross it, and the system stops treating you as a human being and starts treating you as waste that has not yet been processed.

Western media loves to talk about China’s so-called “social credit score,” in dystopian language. A digital leash. A techno-authoritarian nightmare. But this is projection. The real, fully operational social credit system already exists in the United States. It is called your credit score. Your ability to pay your bills.

In America, your credit score is not just your financial data. It is your civil status. Your digital soul. Once it drops below a certain point, you are quietly erased. You cannot rent an apartment. You cannot get a phone plan. You cannot pass a background check. Often, you cannot even open a basic bank account. There is no meaningful appeal. No state-level repair mechanism that works at scale.
In China, debt problems are treated as a social risk to be managed. Housing is stabilized. Utilities stay on. The state intervenes because social collapse is expensive. Fear and despair spread quickly in a society, and the cost is collective. In the United States, default is treated as a moral failure. Punishment is impersonal, automated, and outsourced to algorithms. Once the gears start turning, they are designed to move in one direction only.

The most brutal feature of the American system is not poverty itself. It is the absolute requirement of a fixed address.
No address means no mail. No mail means no bills, no notices, no verification. No verification means no bank account. No bank account means no job. No job means no health insurance. This is not accidental. It is a perfectly engineered chain reaction.

Once you lose housing, time itself turns against you. The average survival time of a homeless person in the United States is about three and a half years. In a country that constantly talks about labor shortages and immigration, this number should haunt every policy debate. People are not “falling through the cracks.” They are being processed out of the system.
Perfectly normal people—fit for work, needing only a few weeks of stability—are treated as waste and left to rot and die on the street.

Healthcare stands guard at this execution line.

In America, if you get sick, there are only two outcomes. Either the disease kills you untreated, or the bill finishes you off by pushing you into homelessness. There is no third path.

Lose your job, you lose your insurance. Get sick afterward, and the bills arrive in amounts no average American could ever repay. The debt is not meant to be paid. It is meant to push you past the line.Image
II/

When people began using AI tools to audit medical bills, to contest inflated charges, simply to survive, the response was immediate. New rules now forbid the use of AI to contest medical bills. Soon AI will have inbuilt algorithms which forbid such interference with the filtering function of the system.

Costs must remain high. The guillotine must stay sharp. Americans must be made to stay in the debt trap all their life. The system makes sure nobody can pay off their debts (compound interest aiding which no average American understands) and walk away with huge savings and a happy retirement. Nobody is able to do what the personal finance gurus like Dave Ramsay or Robert Kiyosaki teach.

This also explains the opioid epidemic. If seeing a doctor means bankruptcy, homelessness, and social death, then swallowing painkillers and continuing to work becomes a rational survival strategy. Addiction is not a cultural failure. It is an adaptation to a system where rest, healing, and care are priced out of reach.

The middle class—once the system’s stabilizer—is being quietly dismantled.

Young people now enter adult life already wounded by debt. Student loans that cannot be discharged. Interest that compounds faster than wages. From day one, they are locked onto the credit treadmill. Miss a step, and you slide backward into the kill zone.
At the same time, low-cost survival has been criminalized. Sleeping in your car. Growing vegetables. Keeping chickens. In short, self-sufficient non system dependent cheap living is illegal or heavily restricted in many states. You are not allowed to survive cheaply. You must consume expensively. You must borrow. You must pay interest. The system does not want resilience. It wants dependency.

The popular fantasy is that this is a competitive system where the best rise to the top. In reality, it is closer to a battle royale with a shrinking map. A few escape upward. Most run in place, living from pay check to pay check, paying bills just fast enough to avoid immediate default.

They are not citizens in a republic.
They are cattle in a credit algorithm.
That is the invisible execution line that awaits evey middle class American.

Bondi Beach and the Netanyahu Pattern

Across 9/11 (2001), London Metro 7/7 (2005), and Charlie Hebdo (2015), Bataclan (2015) and many other high profile terrorist attack, the same identical scenario repeats. The structure is the same. They are all Israeli psyops.

First: foreknowledge, extreme proximity.
Before 9/11, Netanyahu moved in the same New York political–business circles as Larry Silverstein, the owner of the Twin Towers who acquired the Towers shorty before 911, a long-standing pro-Israel donor with direct access to Netanyahu and Israeli government. Netanyahu himself repeatedly claimed, immediately after the attacks, that he had long warned of such an event. On 7/7, Netanyahu was physically in London, cancelling a public appearance shortly before the bombings. With Charlie Hebdo, Netanyahu had close personal ties to Richard Malka, the magazine’s long-time lawyer who defended Charlie Hebdo's long tradition of sadistic blasphemy of the Prophet Mohammed of the utmost bad taste as freedom of expression, who became a central media figure after the attack.

Second: instant attribution.
In all four cases, the identity of the attackers and the ideological framing was established almost immediately. No uncertainty window. No need for competing hypotheses. The enemy was named before the investigation began.

Third: convenient evidence.
Passports found intact (911 and Bataclan: passports conveniently found immediately at the crime scene. No need for prolonged investigation to know “who done it”). Documents appearing on cue. Evidence that survives explosions (911) better than steel or human bodies. The narrative locks early and never unlocks.

Fourth: no serious inquiry into intelligence failure.
How did this happen? Who knew what, and when? The apparent foreknowledge is discarded.

Fifth - and most important: instant political framing.
Each event is immediately folded into a civilizational narrative: terrorism as an existential war, Israel as the frontline, and Jewish life in the diaspora as inherently unsafe. The implied conclusion is always the same: Jews must move to Israel. Without continuous Jewish settlement, the Israeli state hollowes out demographically and politically.

After Charlie Hebdo, Netanyahu openly urged French Jews to leave for Israel - fear converted directly into demographic salvation. This time is no different: accusations of mounting anti-Semitism are paired with calls for Australian Jews to relocate to Israel, a country now facing sustained population outflow.

Same sequence. Same beneficiaries. Same absence of indepth investigation addressing disturbing coincidences and damning evidence of an inside job. Same mainstream campaign to strike down disturbing questions as "conspiracy theories”.

Bondi Beach and the Logic of Spectacle

When a mass killing happens, the first instinct is grief. The second is fear. The third - if you have lived through enough of these cycles - is pattern recognition.

The Bondi Beach tragedy immediately triggered that third response in many people. The mass casualty is real, but the structure of the event felt familiar. Too familiar. Professor Jiang has given his analysis of the Bondi Beach attack in his viral YouTube video.

youtu.be/Ke0nsy70khE?si…
II/

Prof Jiang does not claim that nothing happened, or that no one died. The argument is more uncomfortable: that some events are allowed to happen, shaped, framed, or accelerated because they serve a strategic narrative.

This is what “false flag” originally meant - not fake blood, but misattributed causality.

Foreknowledge and the Smell of Timing

One of the first anomalies raised in the video concerns timing. Searches for the alleged perpetrator’s name appeared in Google Trends in Israel, Turkey, and Afghanistan before the attack occurred. On its own, this could be coincidence, data noise, or misinterpretation. But in intelligence analysis, anomalies are not judged in isolation. They are judged in clusters.

When foreknowledge, media preparedness, and narrative readiness all appear together, analysts begin to ask a different question - not “is this fake?” but “who was the master mind behind and why?”

Narrative Control Comes First, Facts Later

Almost immediately, the event was folded into a broader ideological frame.

An Israeli human rights lawyer appeared in mainstream scheduled interview grade high-resolution photographs - bloodied, bandaged, composed - giving television interviews before seeking medical treatment. Again, no single image proves anything. But mass casualty events are usually chaotic, visually messy, and poorly documented in their earliest moments. This one was not.

After decades of successful psychological operations, Israel no longer bothers with subtlety.

Even more striking was the speed with which political conclusions were drawn. Before investigations had meaningfully begun, Australia’s alleged “anti-Semitic culture” and its stance on Palestine were cited as causal factors. This is not how criminal inquiry works. It is how narrative consolidation works.

The goal was not understanding. It was immediate moral framing.

Convenient Security Failures

Bondi Beach was not an obscure location. It was a high-profile public space, associated with a Jewish cultural gathering, in a country with extensive surveillance infrastructure. Yet police response reportedly took over twenty minutes.

Meanwhile, the alleged perpetrator was already known to security services. ISIS flags and explosives were conveniently “discovered” in his car with remarkable speed. The suspect conveniently embodied every required archetype: radicalized islamists, foreign-linked, ideologically fitting the Israeli narrative.

In intelligence history, such scenarios are called too clean. Either security services are catastrophically incompetent - or selective blindness was involved.

The Camera Was Already Rolling

Perhaps the most unsettling feature of the Bondi event was how well it was documented.

High-quality photographs during the attack. An eleven-minute video released by authorities. Extensive real-time coverage. This runs directly against decades of established practice, which limits public exposure to mass shootings to avoid copycat violence. Western governments know this. They teach it. They enforce it. Strangely now they practice and teach the opposite. How to carry out a mass shooting video is released to the public for all to emulate. Maybe they want more of such massacres to occur?
III/

Spectacle is not a by-product here. It is the point.

And spectacle has an audience.

Who Is the Message For?

The central claim of the video is not about Australia. It is about the Jewish diaspora.

Zionism, as a political project, does not function on comfort and normality. It functions on mass casualty and fear. Historically, Aliyah - the migration of Jews to Israel - spikes not during peace, but during perceived existential threat. The more frightened the diaspora feels, the stronger the pull of Israel.

This is a time proven structural observation.

The podcast references historical precedents, including documentation of covert attacks on Jewish communities in mid-20th-century Iraq, later acknowledged by Israeli historians as operations designed to accelerate migration. The precedent exists: fear as fuel.

From this perspective, the Bondi tragedy functions as a message: You are not safe in Australia. Anti-Semitism is everywhere. Leave for Israel.

The target is not just Muslims. Not just Australian government expressing sympathy for the Palestine cause.

The target is Jewish families watching the news at home.

False Flag Does Not Mean Fake Deaths

One of the laziest rebuttals to this kind of analysis is moral outrage: “Are you saying the victims aren’t real?” That's not the point.

A false flag operation does not negate death. It weaponizes it.

It means responsibility is misdirected, while the beneficiary quietly consolidates narrative advantage. In the Bondi case, the clearest beneficiary is not ISIS, not Australia. The biggest beneficiary is Netanyahu and the Zionist political narrative that requires perpetual hostility to justify its cause and atrocities.

The Coaxing of Jews to Move to Israel

As Israel’s demographic pressures deepen, its political contradictions sharpen, and its international legitimacy erodes, the incentive to externalize blame and anxiety grows. Diaspora insecurity becomes strategic capital.

This framework is highly plausible. Bondi is not an isolated tragedy. It is a re-enact of a prototype.

Spectacular violence. Instant moral framing. Emotional button pushing. Media saturation. A frightened audience told, once again, that history is repeating (continued holocaust) and only one destination offers safety: Israel.

The repeated deployment of Israeli psyops are so crude they verge on the parody. For long term follower of such psyops, the pattern screams.

One detail doesn't fit the narrative. It's the Muslim hero Ahmed al-Ahmed who tried to stop the attacker. Israel doesn't know what to do with him. He is not in the script.

Pang Zhongwang (庞众望): Chinese scientist rising from a family of severe disability and poverty to the frontlines of China's scientific breakthroughs rendering null and void western sanctions.

In China, Tsinghua University is the country’s equivalent of MIT. It is where the most scientifically gifted students from across the nation converge, where competition is brutal and expectations are extremely high.

Pang Zhongwang belongs to that world now. He is a doctoral researcher in precision instrumentation, working on technologies China still struggles to import. He publishes papers in the world's top scientific journals. He holds patents. He works at the sharp edge of China's scientific self-reliance.

But Pang did not come from a background of privilege.

He came from the poorest family of the poorest village that barely survived.

Pang was born in rural Wuqiang County, Hebei Province, into a family that seemed, from the start, condemned by fate. His mother suffered from congenital spina bifida. She had no legs and spent her life in a wheelchair. She had never attended school, never learned to read in the formal sense. His father suffered from severe schizophrenia, unable to communicate normally with others, often isolated in his own mental world.

The family survived on subsistence farming, relying largely on elderly grandparents. A modest government stipend kept them from starvation. Then, when Pang was just six years old, doctors diagnosed him with congenital heart disease.

By any ordinary measure, this was a family being pushed toward collapse.

Yet something unusual was happening inside that small, poor home.

Pang’s mother never complained.
She was serene, cheerful and quietly determined her son should receive the best education. Pang speaks of his family without embarrassment or bitterness. He says his mother was extraordinary, and that there was nothing about his family he was ever ashamed of. “Which part of my family,” he asked during his now famous interview, “is not worthy of being spoken about? My mother is such a good person. My grandparents too are so good. Surrounded with so much goodness, I should be envied rather than pitied”

Though Pang's mother had never gone to school, she refused to surrender to ignorance. She watched her nephew recite classical Chinese poems and asked him to teach them to her. She memorized the verses herself, then recited them to Pang while holding him as a toddler. Poems entered his world before textbooks ever did. Between moments of pain, she did handicraft embroidery work, earning money one piece at a time.

When Pang was diagnosed with heart disease at the age of six, his mother did what she had always done: she acted instead of indulging in lamentation. Sitting in her wheelchair, she had Pang push her from door to door, asking villagers for help. People knew the money might never be repaid. They gave it anyway. Nearly 40,000 yuan (about $6000) was raised — a staggering sum for a rural village. Pang never forgot this. In a way, his achievements belong to every villager who helped his family survive.

Pang learned responsibility early.
By the age of five, he was standing on stools to cook. He followed elderly relatives to collect scrap materials for money. At twelve, he left home to attend a middle school in a neighboring town. His weekly living expense was about 20 yuan ($3) Every weekend he returned home to wash clothes, cook meals, and care for his mother.

Academically, however, he moved with astonishing speed. By high school, Pang was not merely a top student — he won national awards in mathematics, physics, and biology competitions, a combination rare enough to shock educators across Hebei Province.
II/

In 2017, he entered the national college entrance exam and scored among the very top students. He was admitted to Tsinghua University’s Department of Precision Instrumentation.

At first, Pang assumed he would need to work multiple jobs to survive in Beijing. But Qiu Yong, then president of Tsinghua, personally visited Pang’s home in Hebei and made a simple promise: no student at Tsinghua would drop out because of poverty. The school would provide Pang with financial aid to cover the tuition and living expenses.

Still, Tsinghua was a shock. Pang later admitted that for the first time, he felt intellectually challenged — not by life, but by peers as gifted as himself. A professor named Shi Zongkai offered him a crucial insight: the purpose of university is not to be good at everything, but to discover what you are uniquely good at, and pursue it relentlessly.

The idea changed him. Pang stabilized. He improved every year. He won the university’s Academic Progress Award four consecutive times, served as a class leader, and paid for much of his education through scholarships and work-study programs. When offered financial aid, he voluntarily gave it up, believing other students needed it more.

Then, during his junior year, tragedy returned.

His mother fell gravely ill and passed away at 48 years old. Pang later recalled seeing, for the first time, the deep wounds her body had carried in silence. The day before she died, sensing the end, she called Pang and his grandmother to her bedside. She spoke little — except for one thing she could not let go of: her worry for her son. Giving birth to and raising her son was the meaning of her life.

Pang continued.

He was accepted into a combined master’s–PhD program at Tsinghua. Before even completing his doctorate, he broke through a key technological bottleneck in precision instrumentation — a field where China still relies heavily on imports, including medical imaging and high-end diagnostic equipment. He published an important paper. He secured invention patents.

Globally, many Nobel Prizes have been awarded for the creation of a single groundbreaking instrument. That is how strategic this field is.

Today, Pang Zhongwang works quietly within that strategic domain as a top scientist. He speaks often about responsibility, about how each generation inherits unfinished tasks, and how scientific independence is not abstract, but practical and urgent.

Western sanctions and technological containment were designed around a simple assumption: that a country emerging from poverty and historical ignorance could be permanently locked out of the highest levels of science. China broke that assumption through its people — determined scientists forged in conditions far harsher than any trade restriction. One of them is Pang Zhongwang. Born into utter poverty, raised by a mother with no legs and no schooling, and growing up in a family shadowed by repeated outbreaks of illness, Pang’s rise to the frontiers of precision science is not just a personal story. It reflects how China, within a single generation, moved from scarcity to abundance, from dependence to self-reliance — almost a miracle, but in fact the cumulative result of millions of lives that refused to surrender to circumstance.

He was raised by a mother who had no legs, no education, no complaints — yet taught him poetry. dignity and serenity. That, more than anything else, may explain why Pang Zhongwang has achieved so much. His name Pang Zhongwang means "The Expectation of the Village”. He has fulfilled the expectations, not just of the family and the village but the whole nation. He is one of the top Chinese scientists working hard to break the Western sanctions on China.
