As contrived wars threaten Asase Yaa, OUR MOTHER EARTH, why is your voice not being heard? Please, President Mahama, free us from the shame and guilt of not hearing the collective voice of Africa when the collective West undermined President Gaddafi, had him slaughtered and carried on to lay Libya to waste and destruction. African leaders, with frail nerves, would not come out to condemn, with one voice, the genocidal acts of the collective West.
Mr. President, you and your colleague Heads of State and Government would only fold your arms and seal your lips as the US and Israel destroyed Palestine, Syria and now Iran. Why this display of frail nerves by our leaders unable to stand up to bullies and resist oppressors with all their might? As a Christian President where lies your fear of the US and Israel playing God on earth?
Why this silence when you know the predatory and dastardly record of the US since World War II? Below are the facts silence cannot hide:
Mr. President, as we wait for you to rally your colleagues to speak out, please listen to the voice of China listing the *30 sovereign countries that the United States has bombed, after World War II*:
Japan: August 6 and 9, 1945
Korea and China: 1950–1953 (Korean War)
Guatemala: 1954, 1960, 1967–1969
Indonesia: 1958
Cuba: 1959–1961
Congo: 1964
Laos: 1964–1973
Vietnam: 1961–1973
Cambodia: 1969–1970
Grenada: 1983
Lebanon: 1983, 1984 (attacks on targets in Lebanon and Syria)
Libya: 1986, 2011, 2015
El Salvador: 1980
Nicaragua: 1980
Iran: 1987
Panama: 1989
Iraq: 1991 (Gulf War), 1991–2003 (US and British invasions), 2003–2015
Kuwait: 1991
Somalia: 1993, 2007–2008, 2011
Bosnia: 1994, 1995
Sudan: 1998
Afghanistan: 1998, 2001–2015
Yugoslavia: 1999
Yemen: 2002, 2009, 2011, 2024, 2025
Pakistan: 2007–2015
Syria: 2014–2015
This list consists of approximately 30 countries. China has stressed that “we must never forget who the real threat to the world is.”
Then the question arises:
Has Western society ever expressed anger at the US?
Has there ever been a strong voice raised against it?
Has there ever been a single time when sanctions have been imposed on the US?
This entire world system, which we call the “international community”, has been a silent spectator, while the US attacks countries around the world like bandits and turns their dreams into terrible nightmares.
No condemnation, no reprimand, no resentment of any kind.
A cowardly, shameless, and hypocritical global conscience.
What is needed is that this list be broadcasted repeatedly on every possible platform. Videos should be made that expose all these Western hypocrites and remind us of every fact of the crimes committed by the US around the world.
The list was released by the Chinese Embassy in Russia (Moscow) as a political and moral message at a time when the international media and Western countries were strongly condemning Iran’s attack on Israel, but the past of the United States itself was being completely ignored.
The list was published to expose the double standards that the United States and the West adopt in matters of human rights, international law, and global security.
When Iran retaliated against Israel, the United States and its allies began to call Iran a “global threat.” The Chinese Embassy issued the list in response to this critical campaign to remind that the real threat is a country that has bombed more than 30 countries since World War II.
China’s position is that the United States is not qualified to speak from any moral position, because its own past and present are full of human rights violations and global aggression.
China sent a broader message by releasing the list:
“The world must remember who the real threat is. Western media and governments act with hypocrisy, and when the US commits massacres, they remain silent.”
This move is not just a diplomatic or informational one, but also a political response and a moral charge sheet against the one-sided narrative being spread by the US and its allies. (*Zalmay Jadoon*)
