MSNBC analyst and far-left website ‘Mother Jones’ Washington bureau chief David Corn has published an essay dismissing Steve Bannon’s assessment that China and Iran are more-than-eager to foment the war between Israel and Hamas as the conflict could serve to diminish American power. Surmising that regional and global powers like China and Iran could benefit from a worn down and war weary America is a “conspiracy theory” according to Corn.
Bannon’s theory about Chinese and Iranian interests in the Israel-Hamas conflict is wrong because he discussed it with War Room guest Alex Jones, says Corn, who calls Jones “scurrilous conspiracist” and “dangerous grifter.” Despite the ad hominem, what Jones told Bannon is a reasonable estimation of how Chinese grand strategy is intertwined with the interests of the global anti-American elite:
“[They] want to wear [out] America, destabilize America, and drive nations of the world away from a Western uni-power to this multi-polar world they talk about that really will finally end up unseating the US as the dominant force of the planet.”
The Chinese Communist Party has been shown to be actively working to undermine the power and influence of Western nation’s around the globe. In the United Kingdom two parliament staffers with links to senior lawmakers were arrested in March on the suspicion that they were acting as spies for Communist China. The UK Parliamentās Intelligence and Security Committee even published a report admitting that China had infiltrated every level of the country’s economy in an effort to exert influence over the British nation and its interests.
In the U.S., powerful Wall Street interests, like hedge-fund billionaire Jeff Yass, have poured money into preventing the government from banning the Chinese social media app TikTok ā despite credible accusations that the Chinese Communist Party uses the app as an espionage tool. Yass is a major investor in TikTok with $21 billion of his $28 billion net worth wrapped up in the app. And in an example that adds additional strength to Bannon’s thoughts on China, the communist nation continues to back the Russian invasion of Ukraine in an effort to undermine the U.S. hegemony and push us towards a multi-polar world.
