China Daily Europe correspondent Zhang Chunyan quoted Mrs. Helga Zepp-LaRouche in Thursday’s European edition, under the headline “China’s Show of Force Combines Memories and Peace,” on European views of the Sept. 3rd Beijing celebrations of 70th anniversary of victory in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the end of World War II.

Ms. Zhang wrote:

The article also reports on the comments by two other European observers. Rana Mitter, director of the University China Centre at University of Oxford, stated that “This commemoration reminds people that China made very significant sacrifices to help bring about an ultimate allied victory during the war.” And Kerry Brown, associate fellow at London’s Chatham House, said that the military parade “marks a momento of new confidence for China, where it wants to have its contribution in World War II more widely understood and recognized.” 

Obama is celebrating the visit of King Salman of Saudi Arabia with a high-profile Oval Office meeting just a week before the anniversary of the British/Saudi-organized 9/11 attack on the US. On Friday, an AP photo of Obama yukking it up with Salman—architect of the Yemen murders of civilians—was being posted in hundreds of articles. It shows Obama doubled over in laughter in his meeting with Salman in the Oval office. The two reportedly discussed Iran and their joint support for a “stable government” in Yemen, where the Obama-assisted Saudi attack and blockades have resulted in about 2,000 civilians’ deaths since the since the fighting began.

Underscoring the meeting’s importance to Obama, NSC official Ben Rhodes held a phone briefing on Wednesday night for reporters on Salman’s visit, stressing the US/Saudi partnership. RT reports today that Riyadh “expects more US support for its interventions” like the Yemen war, in return for not opposing the Iran deal.

The disgusting Saudi monarch reportedly rented the entire Four Seasons Hotel in Georgetown (222 rooms) and lined up scores of custom Mercedes limos for his entourage.

At the hotel, reported Politico, “Everything is gold, says one Four Seasons regular …. Gold mirrors, gold end tables, gold lamps, even gold hat racks. Red carpets have been laid down in hallways and even in the lower parking garage, so the king and his family never have to touch asphalt….”

But, Salman’s visit is also fueling the campaign to expose Obama’s protection of the Saudis by his refusal to release the classified 28 pages of the Congressional report on the 9/11 attacks, or otherwise expose the Saudi role in terrorism.

As reported on Sept. 4, just a day before Salman arrived, NY Times columnist Thomas Friedman nailed the Saudis and Wahhabis for their ongoing support for the ISIS and Al Qaeda terrorists as well as for their role in 911.

Yesterday, UCLA announced in a press release that, “As part of the Hammer Museum’s Forum, Sen. Bob Graham, former chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee and co-chair of the Congressional inquiry into the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, will address the 28 pages of the Sept. 11 report that remains classified. The event will take place 7:30-9:30 p.m., Thursday, Sept.10, at the Billy Wilder Theater.” The press release also says that there are “incessant questions about whether powerful Saudis funded Al Qaeda and some of the hijackers who carried out the 9/11 attacks.”

In covering the Salman visit, the Washington Times says that “analysts note that Saudi Arabia, along with Qatar and Turkey, is arming and funding a rebel coalition in Syria that includes fighters from the Nusra Front—[which] is widely seen as al Qaeda’s main affiliate in Syria.”

28pages.org has begun a petition on the White House website calling for the release the 28 pages, aiming to generate 100,000 signatures.
