NaanViolence posted:Vietnam (the best communist country ever) was colonized by China on and off for a thousand years. That doesn't mean they're part of modern China. Same with Xinjiang. It should be independent and have a more respectful name than just 'new frontier.' I mean it has been called Xinjiang since the Qing Dynasty...it isn't a PRC thing. As far as Xinjiang being independent, do people there actually want that (that includes Han and Kazakhs)? Does that rule apply to Russians in Crimea? How is it different from ethnic Russians moving to Soviet Estonia to work in factories or Californians moving to Oregon to buy vegan chickpea ice cream?

sincx posted:lol, this is worth a read Some categories are too board if he is actually going to do phd paper on it. Like for example if he wants to study "tankie" imo he should separate people who has ethnic Chinese connection and the ones who come from the soviet affiliation. Yet he put Martin Jacques into his own category. I haven't seem other people like MJ.

You guys have decent ancient indochina history book to recommend? Ancient indochina peninsula history seem to be harder to find than ancient India history. Is there a different term to use other than "Indochina"? I need something in audiobook or ebook format.

My theory is Xi commanded her to walk out of the embassy herself and "sacrifice for the motherland" because Xi Dada didn't want to give Trump an excuse to close the San Fran branch and boost Trump's polling number. Pooh's new Iran mega deal heavily bet on Trump going away.

Men seen forcing open backdoor of China's Houston consulate after closure quote:HOUSTON (Reuters) - A group of men accompanied by a U.S. State Department official were seen forcing open a door at the Chinese consulate in Houston on Friday, shortly after a U.S. government closure order for the mission took effect at 4 p.m. Central Time (2100 GMT). Looks like the State Department is doing their sweep of the consulate.

lol he's dead something I always find kind of funny in a morose way is that if you're caught as a spy in the west, you go to prison. If you're caught as a spy anywhere else, they execute you unless they think they can get a trade out of you

Mister Bates posted:multiple Soviet defectors successfully un-defected back to the USSR over the course of the Cold War, and a few North Korean defectors have attempted to do the same Those were probably double spies to begin with. But the state can totally justify prosecuting you if you didn 't defect on the order of the country.

Atrocious Joe posted:lots of Vietnam hasn't been Vietnam for a 1000 years You're right. The core of Vietnam (the northern part) was still occupied by China for hundreds of years. That doesn't give China any right to claim it as part of their territory. Same with Xinjiang.
