PART I
The USA’s decades long warfare against China
by Robert S. Rodvik
In the first part of his study of the low-intensity warfare carried out by the
United States against communist China since the Cold War, Robert S. Rodvik
focuses on the U.S. collaboration with the nationalist government of
Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek. As a rabid anti-communist, Washington
knew it could count on the Generalissimo to be more preoccupied with anti -
Communist extermination campaigns than with resisting the Japanese
invaders, and complicitly turned a blind eye to Chiangs massacres and
unbridled corruption.
Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek (L) appointed Allied Commander-in-Chief in the China theater
in 1942, with his very influential wife, and U.S. General Joseph Stilwell (R) who served as
Chiangs Chief of Staff, and at the same time commanded US forces in the China Burma India
Theater.
For as long as I can remember the US has been waging an undeclared war against
China, the latter very lucky to have avoided being nuked when it joined North

Korea in its battle against the Empire. Considering that millions of North Koreans
were wiped out by the bombing, killing, murdering giant, its land devastated by
the marauding monster, the mere fact that the Joint Chiefs were unable to get the
OK to nuke China seems a rare non-happening of great importance. This doesn’t
mean, however, that the US hasn’t continued its covert wars to actually destroy
communist China over the years. So don’t be surprised when that scenario actually
comes into play; sooner, I believe, rather than later.
At the end of WWII writes William Blum, "The ink on the Japanese surrender
treaty was hardly dry when the United States began to use the Japanese soldiers still
in China alongside American troops in a joint effort against the Chinese
communists." [1]
Blum was referring to US collaboration with Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek and
his Kuomintang (KMT) nationalist army and their plans to repel Mao Tse-Tung’s
communist soldiers, at war with the rampantly corrupt KMT. Chiang’s nationalist
army hoarded US aid monies, arms and material to such a degree that President
Truman wrote that "the Chiangs, the Kungs and the Soongs (were) all thieves" having
stolen some $750 million dollars of US funds. [2]
To understand the role of the Generalissimo and the KMT in the long, tortured
history of modern China we need to go back in time and examine Chiang’s
monstrous role in the country’s development.
Dr. Sun Yat-sen was the respected leader of modern China and the early leader
of the KMT. His death in 1924 led to a scramble for power, which, in turn, led to
the head of the Green Gang triad, Big Eared Tu (Tu Yueh-sheng) succeeding Sun
as leader. Tu was the undeniable head of opium trafficking in China and also the
head of worker suppression for the Chinese elites and their foreign counterparts in
the International Settlement who found labour turmoil as anathema to profit. In
1925 worker and student unrest was such that police from the International
Settlement were called in and a British detachment "fired into the crowd killing
twelve workers and wounding fifty others. This ‘May 30th Incident’ precipitated
strikes, boycotts, and demonstations," [resulting in the further killing of fifty-two
protestors in Canton] murdered by "French and British machine gunners." [3] Big
Eared Tu and his close drug trafficking sidekick Chiang Kai-shek were on their way
to controlling all of China.
