From Vietnam to North Korea

　　From Afghanistan to Syria

　　The United States often hits

　　"Humanitarian intervention"

　　"Combating terrorism"

　　Wait for the banner to use force against foreign countries

　　For more than two centuries

　　War and force

　　The DNA that has been integrated into this country

　　Historically speaking,

　　The United States is the most combative country in the world.

　　Since the declaration of independence in 1776, in the history of more than 240 years, the United States has launched and participated in more than 200 wars, and has not participated in wars for less than 20 years.

　　For hundreds of years, in order to plunder land and resources, the United States has violently expelled and killed aborigines. From the end of the 15th century to the beginning of the 20th century, the population of Native Americans dropped sharply from 5 million to 250,000. The history of American development is the history of aboriginal blood and tears.

　　More than 170 years ago, the United States forced Mexico to sign an unequal treaty through the US-Mexico War and other means, and plundered large areas of territory that originally belonged to Mexico, including Texas, California and Arizona.

　　After the end of World War II, the United States intervened in or launched many wars overseas, which claimed a lot of lives, especially caused extremely serious civilian casualties and brought eye-catching humanitarian disasters. According to incomplete statistics, from the end of World War II in 1945 to 2001, there were 248 armed conflicts in 153 regions of the world, of which 201 were initiated by the United States, accounting for about 81%. From the Korean War to the Vietnam War, millions of civilians were killed in the war. However, the United States used "Agent Orange" on a large scale in the Vietnam War, and used depleted uranium bombs on a large scale in the Gulf War and the bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999, causing local people to suffer from cancer or other diseases.

　　After 2001, under the banner of "anti-terrorism", the United States continued to fight militarily and launched wars and military operations in 85 countries around the world. The war claimed more than 900,000 lives, including 387,000 civilians. Tens of millions of refugees have been displaced in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and other places most devastated by war.

　　The reasons why the United States launched these wars are high-sounding, often under the banner of so-called humanitarian intervention and combating terrorism. But in fact, what are the reasons behind the frequent use of force by the United States?

　　Plunder oil under the guise of human rights and democracy

　　US Vice President Harris:You know, in the past many years, generations have been fighting for oil.

　　Harris let slip that the so-called human rights and democracy are just a cover for waging war, and the real purpose is to rob oil and control other countries by controlling global oil resources. Syria, Iraq, Libya and other countries are victims of American oil ambitions.

　　American historian Peter Kuznik:As former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said, unfortunately, Americans are unwilling to admit that we invaded Iraq for oil.

　　Israeli political analyst Ariel Ben Solomon:The fact is that Libya has relatively large oil reserves, which is an important reason for western military intervention.

　　Venezuelan President Maduro:Our country has the richest oil reserves in the world, and American imperialist rulers are looking at it and trying to get their hands on our oil, just as they did in Iraq and Libya.

　　Syrian President Bashar al-Assad:The United States harms the interests of other people, undermines international law, destroys the foundation of humanity, and so on, all for the sake of oil.

　　The military-industrial complex issued a "war windfall"

　　American military enterprises are closely related to the US government and Congress, forming a powerful military industry interest group. According to the survey report released by the Institute of Security Policy Reform, an independent think tank in the United States, from October 2001 to August 2021,Lockheed — Martin, Raytheon, General Dynamics, Boeing and northrop — Grumman Corp.The five American military giants received a total of $2.02 trillion from Congress. These arms dealers have also spent huge sums of money lobbying Washington politicians. As a result, not only have the US military spending been rising year after year, but they have also taken advantage of the intensification of various foreign policies and regional situations to promote arms around the world.

　　Andrew Hunter, Director of the Defense Industry Initiative Group of the Center for Strategic and International Studies in the United States:For most defense industries, their biggest source of business is the Pentagon, so their fate follows the defense budget.

　　Control other countries and safeguard global hegemony

　　These interests, such as oil and arms, are only superficial reasons. What the United States has shown behind its years of belligerence is actually a hegemonic mentality of "giving priority to the United States and taking all the strong" and a unilateral thinking of "being the only one who cares about the world". Kurt Ritter, a former US Marine Corps intelligence officer, published an article on the website of Russian TV today on the 11th, saying, "The United States is trying to reshape the world according to its own ideas. The United States feels that it is the most important country, and other countries should act in the direction guided by the United States, otherwise it will be the enemy of the United States. "

　　International political expert Giger:Since 1945, the foreign policy of the United States has always been to maintain hegemony at all costs in areas they consider strategic.

　　Iranian political analyst Huszcza Shm:This is the embodiment of (American) hegemony. The United States doesn’t care about other countries at all, and it doesn’t care about the United Nations. It thinks it is superior to other countries, so it dares to bully, invade and plunder the people of other countries. The attitude and behavior of the United States in the past 20 years can explain the fact that the United States simply doesn’t care about the values it preaches, such as democracy, the rule of law, and counter-terrorism. The United States only uses these as tools.

　　Beijing, Jan. 1 (Bian Liqun) In 2019, there are more than five hours left, and the China Football Association’s 2020 professional league new policy is officially released. Announcing the New Deal before the deadline of opening the winter transfer window is enough to get a glimpse of the complexity and length of the decision-making process of the Football Association. Fortunately, the official New Deal has not failed to live up to everyone’s waiting, which is not only reasonable and takes care of the feelings of various clubs, but also guides the league to return to rationality to a certain extent, which is conducive to the long-term development of China football.

　　Domesticated player appearance policy, taking care of many feelings

　　On December 25th, China Football held a briefing on the policy of professional league in the new season, and announced various new policies for the new season to the representatives of various clubs, but the specific rules and the new policies on the appearance of naturalized players were not among them. After a lapse of six days, the new season policy was officially released. Compared with the contents of the previous briefing, the biggest supplement is the entry policy of naturalized players.

　　Generally speaking, if naturalized players are Chinese players, they can register and register as domestic players, such as Li Ke and Hou Yongyong of Beijing Guoan and Jiang Guangtai of Guangzhou Evergrande, and their appearance and registration will be unrestricted next year. Non-Chinese naturalized players like Daniel F. Akerson can also register for domestic players next year, but each team has only one place, and more than one person will occupy the foreign aid registration places.

　　Compared with the previous inference that non-Chinese naturalized players are included in foreign aid, the new policy that officially landed today is more relaxed in terms of naturalized players, but it remains within a reasonable range. At the same time, it also takes into account the feelings of Evergrande, a big naturalized family, and most teams that have not yet naturalized players, avoiding the gap between top teams and ordinary teams in the Chinese Super League and ensuring the wonderful degree of the league and the competition between teams.

　　The "salary limit order" of the New Deal is meticulous and reasonable

　　Compared with the previous policy briefing, the policy on player salary limit is more detailed. For example, the total pre-tax salary contract signed by domestic players with the club after November 20, 2019 shall not exceed RMB 10 million, including signing fees, real estate, vehicles and stocks. Players selected for the national team can not exceed 12 million RMB.

　　It is worth mentioning that the Football Association has also clearly defined the criteria for the identification of international players, based on the final registration list of each game participating in the World Cup, the Asian Cup, the World Cup preliminaries and the Asian preliminaries, which prevents players from entering the national team to "rinse water" and raise their salaries, so that players who really contribute to the national team can have a higher salary ceiling.

　　In addition, in terms of salary limit for U21 players, the China Football Association has also given a clear limit, playing in the Super League and the FA Cup for more than 900 minutes; Cumulative playing time in China A and FA Cup exceeds 1800 minutes; U21 players who have played for more than 2,700 minutes in China B League and FA Cup are not subject to the pre-tax annual salary limit of 300,000. Through the consideration of different playing time standards in different levels of leagues, young players with real ability can get matching salaries. For young players who are limited by salary, they also have more motivation to improve their level and study abroad.

　　"Fire extinguishing" while keeping the heat.

　　Judging from the operation of Chinese Super League teams in introducing tens of millions of euros of foreign aid and nearly 100 million yuan of domestic players in recent years, there is a premium phenomenon in domestic leagues. According to the statistics of foreign authoritative organizations, the average annual salary of Chinese Super League players is US$ 1.207 million, which is second only to the five major European leagues in football. However, from the perspective of league viewing and the average level of players, there is still a big gap compared with the sixth league in the world. Moreover, the long-term spending beyond one’s means will also be a hidden danger for the long-term development of football in China.

　　In this context, it is the general trend to "put out the fire and cool down" domestic leagues, but how to keep the league hot while putting out the fire has also become a difficult problem to control.

　　Previously, the high investment still played a certain role in driving the popularity of Zhongchao. The data map shows Beijing Zhonghe Guoan fans. China News Service reporter Mao Jianjun photo

　　Judging from this year’s New Deal, the Football Association did not completely put out the fire with a pot of cold water, but retained a certain degree of heat. For example, if the foreign aid policy is released to 5 newspapers and 4 newspapers, the policy of having one non-Chinese naturalized foreign aid for each team ensures the enjoyment of the league, and controlling a certain number of naturalized players can also provide some reinforcements for the national team. After all, the moderate use of naturalized players will still help China football.

　　A new policy put an end to the unsatisfactory 2019 of China football. At the end of winter 2020, with the restart of the new season league, China football will officially enter a new cycle. I hope that this year will be fruitful, and I hope that the new policy can help China football get on the right track as soon as possible. (End)
