Officials downplay Henan floods, number of victims questioned
Continuous heavy rainfall in Henan has caused severe flooding caused by flooding from reservoirs in many places. Among them, the Zhengzhou flood disaster was particularly tragic. However, the officials deliberately played down the situation of the disaster. The officially announced number of victims has been strongly questioned by the outside world. The number of family seekers posted online has far exceeded the official data.
In the afternoon of 24 July, the Information Office of the Henan Provincial Government held a press conference, claiming that from 16 to 24 July at 4 pm, heavy rainfall caused more than 9.3 million people in 137 counties (cities, districts) and 1,373 towns in the province. 63 people are missing.
However, this figure is difficult to convince the outside world. The large number of posts on mainland social media looking for missing relatives has far exceeded official figures. Among them, only one webpage of "Netease Shufan" listed the personal data of at least 130 missing persons.
Among them, Lu Yanghan, an 18-year-old girl from Haigouzhai, Cuimiao Town, Xingyang City, Henan Province, was washed away from her home by floods. There has been no news so far.
A villager in Haigouzhai, Xingyang County, Henan Province said, "(She) was at home, and then the water overflowed to the second floor. The second floor was completely flooded and washed away. There are several households under our village, and one of them was not found, and one died. It’s in the house. The water in many places in the south has accumulated there, passing through our river, so the houses under us are all flooded, very serious."
The missing person’s information showed that on the afternoon of the 20th, 33-year-old Liu Kai went missing on a pipe gallery construction site at the intersection of Jinxiu Road and Xianghunan Road in Baisha Town, Zhongmu County, Zhengzhou.
Another young man, Sha Tao, took Zhengzhou Metro Line 5 on the afternoon of July 20, after which the subway was flooded and stopped. After 6 o'clock in the evening, Sha Tao lost contact. Sha Tao’s name is not among the officially announced subway victims.
Recently, heavy rains in Henan Province have caused disasters. On 20 July, the upstream reservoir of Zhengzhou suddenly released floods without warning, causing floods in Zhengzhou to run wild. The people didn't know it, and a large number of pedestrians and vehicles were trapped, flooded, or even washed away. The flood filled some sections of Metro Line 5 and the Jingguang Road tunnel, which was extremely tragic.
In addition, the disaster situation in Xinxiang and other places is also very critical. Therefore, the authorities claimed that only a few dozen people had died, which aroused widespread suspicion.
Xing Tianxing, a commentator on current affairs in the United States, said, "Although there are natural disasters involved in the CCP's history, the most important thing is the man-made calamities of CCP officials. Therefore, the CCP has always tried to cover up the facts of these disasters. "
Xing Tianxing said that due to the CCP’s long-term fraudulent propaganda, many people lacked understanding of CCP officials’ dereliction of duty and the evil that caused man-made disasters, which directly increased the casualties in the disaster.
Xing Tianxing said, "A considerable number of people are still there waiting for the so-called official rescue. It can be seen that this is actually the CCP's long-term propaganda that convinced them that the so-called (CCP) government can come to rescue them, but the facts themselves may be at the cost of life before they realize it."
After the disaster, the government used the media and the Internet to conduct public opinion-oriented propaganda, downplay the disaster, whitewash disaster relief, and block true information. But even so, some of the information flowing out of the people is enough to pierce the official statement.
Xinxiangli Ms. Li said, “It’s mainly the flood discharge from the reservoir above. Anyway, we didn’t notify us. I heard that four reservoirs are discharging floods last night. At present, if we are on the second floor, we can still be able to stay. If the water level rises again, I can’t stay on the second floor. The car and the household appliances at home are all incapable. They are all soaked in water."
A person responsible for collecting relief supplies revealed that the disaster was very serious and there was an urgent shortage of medicines and food and other supplies.
Ms. Qiu, a citizen of Zhengzhou, said, "They were trapped in the flood, and they had nothing to eat or drink. They only had to send things there. We are very serious here. For example, Xinxiang, its county town and Xinxiang county are all flooded. Then people can't get in at all, only rescuers with kayaks can get in."
Although the disaster in Henan is serious and the people are in a difficult situation, the headline on the front page of the official media "Henan Daily" on the 24th is Xi Jinping's visit to Tibet, and the news is the so-called toilet revolution. The Henan disaster is placed at the bottom, and it is the so-called "important instruction" that requires learning from Xi Jinping.

Xi Jinping's inspection of Lhasa is very strange
Xi Jinping's inspection of Lhasa was very strange. Compared with the floods, Tibet currently has no emergencies, and there is no need for leaders to pay for the inspection. Speaking of laboring the people and hurting the wealth, after watching the front and shouting, so many extras are still sending two people on both sides of the road to throw Hadas on the car. Who are these people?
Lhasa: In 1951, the population was about 25,000 + 15,000 monks. The Tibetans in Lhasa experienced two great escapes. In 1959 and 1989, the CCP repressed twice. A large number of Tibetans and monks left, and most of them were Han Chinese.
In this census, there are 600,000 Tibetans in Lhasa and 230,000 Han people, but excluding the army that is not included in the census. According to estimates by the Tibetan government in exile and human rights organizations, Tibetans are a minority in Lhasa. The resident of Lhasa is dominated by party and government agencies. Even Tibetans are related to the party and government of the CCP. Therefore, most of the people who donate Hada are party and government agencies, and Tibetans are not ruled out.
Xi Jinping's visit to Lhasa has two functions: 1) to avoid the embarrassment of inspecting the disaster area; 2) to draw attention to man-made disasters by visiting news spots. Just look at the first page of the "Henan Daily" on 24 July.
Deng Xiaoping could not have done anything back then
This is different from Deng Xiaoping's situation back then. Deng could not do anything at that time (of course, even if he did, he might not do it). The situation at the time was that the country was in chaos. Zhou Enlai was unable to cope with his physical condition and had to use Deng Xiaoping; Mao was in charge of the revolution and did not control production or construction. (The party leader is in charge of the revolution, the government leader is in charge of production, and the leader in charge of the revolution is also in charge of the revolution. The troubles responsible for production have been the case since the Mao era, and it is still the case now).
Deng Xiaoping needed to balance Mao’s revolution with his being activated to save the economy, and also to deal with Mao’s thugs Jiang Qing and Zhang Chunqiao. Jiang Zhang was looking forward to Deng’s negligence or loopholes, and it was in 1975. Re-use Deng (Vice Chairman of the Military Commission, Chief of General Staff, and First Deputy Prime Minister) in November to re-use Deng Xiaoping in November (Criticizing Deng's counterattack against the right-turning case).
Even if there is a saying of playing bridge, it would be helpless. Deng Xiaoping later strengthened his power to really play bridge. This is not an excuse for Deng. The nature and responsibility of Deng's subsequent 89 Tiananmen massacre and the dam failure of the Banqiao Reservoir in 1975 are different. What I am talking about is how the high-level CCP politics works.
Everyone avoids floods. What is the difference between Xi and Deng?
In the Zhengzhou disaster, Xi Jinping held the highest authority, and it is not an exaggeration to say nothing. Although there is a high-level power struggle, it will never affect the decision-making and implementation of disaster relief, that is, it is impossible to shirk responsibility. A visit to Lhasa will not add points to his struggle within the party and the layout of the 20th National Congress.
In the two major disasters in Henan in 1975 and 2021, Deng and Xi Jinping's avoidance, shirk responsibility, and even escape are incomparable. As for whether someone digs a hole for him, he has to jump down to dig the hole. This is like saying that the Gang of Four deceived Mao Zedong. Whoever wants to believe will believe it.
The number of victims and vehicles in the Jingguang North Road Tunnel
The official report is that there are more than 200 cars, Caixin.com reported that 2 people were killed, and the paper reported that 4 people and more than 200 cars were reported to be difficult to verify. But everyone who drives knows that there is no way to go in a traffic jam. Before the flood, the tunnel was in a state of traffic jams. It is impossible for the Jingguang North Road Tunnel to have less than 300 vehicles.
Some people have photographed extended trailers pulling out many suspected corpses wrapped in white cloth from the tunnel. The actual death toll may be difficult to know from the outside world.

The death toll of the two major incidents is still a mystery
We know that the death toll from two major incidents so far is still a mystery. The 89 Tiananmen Square and Wenchuan Earthquake, the former was wiped out by the army, and the latter, civilian volunteers collected a partial list. With the intervention of the army or armed police this time, it is difficult for the outside world to get a closer figure. Anyway, the official figures are by no means credible.
Disaster in Xinxiang, dozens of villages were flooded
Another issue worthy of attention is the Xinxiang disaster. The "Communist Canal" broke its dyke, flooded the Weihe River, and Weihe broke its dyke. The cause may be that the four reservoirs in the upper reaches of the river were broken or flooded, causing dozens of villages in the lower reaches to be flooded, only one village. It is said that 10,000 people are trapped. The water outside the village is 8 meters deep, and the water is 1.8 meters inside the village. The water is still rising. The local truck driver used a car to enter the breach and fill it in invalid.
The armed police all went to Zhengzhou to block news and show off. Sacrificing the countryside to protect the city is also a major feature under the CCP’s rule. "Ode to Longjiang" talks about this. It is called losing the pawn and protecting the car. The key is not whether to protect the city or not, but that the sacrificed countryside should be promptly rescued and compensated.
The CCP armed police have sufficient resources. If they cannot do it, there are only two situations: they are unwilling to do it, or they are incapable of doing it. The latter shows that the CCP’s military is actually incapable of combat. Examining the strength of the military means major disasters and actual combat. Exercises are not counted as exercises by the CCP’s military.
Major disasters can test intelligence collection, analysis, decision-making, army mobilization, deployment, communications, and the ability to reach the destination under harsh conditions.

U.S. cracks down on CCP Fox hunters
The U.S. Department of Justice updated the indictment, prosecuting 9 people who participated in the "Fox Hunt". I talked about this case when I first started working on the YouTube channel in October last year. This time a new defendant was added.
From 2016 to 2019, the defendant threatened, harassed, monitored, and intimidated someone who had lived in New Jersey since 2010 (Xu Jin, the former director of the Wuhan Development and Reform Commission and his wife Liu Fang, a hundred Hongtong staff) and a daughter of a woman2, Live in California. This is part of the CCP’s "Fox Hunt" and "Skynet Operation". Participants were sent from mainland China, there were also Chinese living in the United States, and even hired in the United States.
In 2017, three mainland officials took Xu's father to the United States and forced Xu to return to China for trial along with the suspect. Participants included an hired American private detective, some were responsible for collecting Xu's personal information, some were receiving mainland officials, some were operational logistics, some were tracking and monitoring Xu's daughter and using photos for cyber threats; some went directly to Xu's home and knocked them out. They knocked on the door and left a threatening note.
In October 2020, 8 people were prosecuted, and this time Tu Lan was added, an official of the former Hanyang District Procuratorate.
In this way, there are at least three people sent directly from China: Hanyang District Procuratorate (picture blue), Hanyang District Public Security Bureau, and a retired physician from Xiangyang Central Hospital (taking care of Xu's father along the way) to find the rest directly in the United States.
Here are a few issues worthy of attention.
1. Does Fox Hunt violate the sovereignty of the host country?
The U.S. prosecution was made under the pretext of acting on behalf of a foreign government that did not notify the U.S. Department of Justice, acting and conspiring as an illegal agent of the People’s Republic of China without notifying the Attorney General in advance, and was involved and conspired to be involved in cross-state and transnational kidnapping . Tulan and Zhu Feng also charged for obstruction of justice and conspiracy to obstruct justice (20 years).
There is an article in the country saying that this is nothing at all, but just contacting the wanted person and telling him the domestic policy towards him. In fact, it cannot be tolerated by any sovereign country, but some small countries cannot do anything about it.
This is a routine operation of the CCP, and it is indeed done in many countries. It is also in Hanyang District. In 2018, another Hongtong officer was arrested in Kenya and returned to China, and the Fox Hunting Working Group of the Ministry of Public Security led the Hubei police to catch it. , Claiming to have the cooperation of the Kenyan police.
Why didn't the Ministry of Public Security be sent to the United States, but the Hanyang District came to the United States by itself and then asked for help? I knew that it was against American law and I didn't dare to do that.
2. Why doesn't the United States cooperate?
As I said, all countries are not required to cooperate with the red circular. The conditions for cooperation are generally that the same criminal facts are also similar crimes in this country, and there must be sufficient evidence.
This has nothing to do with whether this person committed a crime, but whether the Chinese police can provide evidence acceptable to the US Department of Justice. The CCP knew that it could not provide it, so it could only kidnap it sneakily.
This is not the U.S. protecting criminals, because the CCP refused to provide criminal evidence. In fact, it did not refuse, but did not communicate with the U.S. Department of Justice at all.
3. Overseas Chinese cannot accept CCP orders
Another point is that overseas Chinese need to pay attention to the fact that official personnel from the mainland ask for help. Many of them violate US laws and cannot be accepted casually. Strictly speaking, they should be rejected at all.
This time the main person in the United States is Zhu Feng, a resident of Queens, and a permanent resident. Zhu Feng confessed to the US government that he is only a close relative of another person who was brought back to China by the fox hunting operation. He was required to cooperate with the police because of that relative’s case. . The others seemed to be found by his relationship.
In this mode of operation, the CCP sent a small number of people to temporarily form an action team in the United States to perform its tasks. This situation should be common. Once it was cracked and prosecuted as a foreign spy, no one could help.
