We petition the Obama administration to：Investigate Jimmy Kimmel Kid's Table Government Shutdown Show on ABC Network.

We were very disturbed by Jimmy Kimmel’s ‘Kids Table’ show. It was aired on ABC recently and talked about killing all the Chinese so that the states do not need to pay back their debts to China. The kids might not know anything better. However, Jimmy Kimmel and ABC’s management are adults. They had a choice not to air this racist program, which promotes racial hatred. The program is totally unacceptable and it must be cut. A sincere apology must be issued. It is extremely distasteful and this is the same rhetoric used in Nazi Germany against Jewish people. Please immediately cut the show and issue a formal apology.

Created：Oct 19, 2013
Issues：Human Rights

　　最近在ABC播出Jimmy Kimmel节目提到“杀死所有的中国人以解决美国对中国的债务”。孩子们可能不懂事，然而，吉米・金梅尔和ABC的管理者都是成年人。他们可以选择不播出这个煽动促进种族仇恨的节目（http://www.scmp.com/news/china-insider/article/1337344/kill-everyone-china-outrage-over-comment-during-jimmy-kimmel-skit）。

　　这出节目是非常令人反感，这是在纳粹德国对犹太人的人用同样的说辞。小孩子确实是无知和天真的，但是ＡＢＣ和Jimmy Kimmel选择播放这个就是完全恶意的，这个如果换成杀光黑人，或者杀光任何其他一个种族的言论都是不能接受的。我们华人的懦弱造成了这样的事件层出不穷，今天你不说话，以为和你没有关系, 明天德国人屠杀犹太人的历史就在我们身上重演。这种成年人借小孩的口说出极端种族主义的言论是不能接受的。 ABC请立即停播吉米・金梅尔的节目，并做出一个正式的道歉。（https://sites.google.com/site/boycottjimmykimmelandabc/）

　　请大家坚持，只要ABC和Kimmel一天不道歉，我们就抗议一天，如果写信没有作用，我们会去ABC的总部游行。请大家同时给各大报纸的报料信箱发信，告诉他们有这样一个新闻，相信一定会有报纸愿意报道这个事件。

　　这个节目的播出连接如下，您可以通过ＦＡＣＥＢＯＯＫ直接在这里表达不满, 请不要谩骂，不要威胁，只是说出您的不满。请写信给下面的部门投诉:

“杀光中国人”言论引发众怒，华人“要发声”（徐一凡）

　　近日，FACEBOOK、人人网、北大未名BBS等社交网络或论坛出现大量请愿网页、号召帖等；白宫“我们人民”（We The People）请愿网页上也出现题为“调查美国广播公司吉米·坎摩尔的政府停摆儿童圆桌会议”（Investigate Jimmy Kimmel Kid's Table Government Shutdown Show on ABC Network）的签名请愿。发起请愿、号召的华人主要针对的是美国广播公司（ABC）节目中的“杀光中国人”的种族主义言论。

　　在美国广播公司10月16日的深夜脱口秀节目“吉米鸡毛秀”（Jimmy Kimmel Live）中，主持人吉米·坎摩尔邀请了4位不同肤色的孩子组成“儿童圆桌会议”，吃着糖果讨论国家大事，以讽刺“国会议员像儿童一样爱闹脾气”。当坎摩尔问道“我们欠中国1.3万亿美元债务，怎样才能还完”，有孩子说“要建造大高墙，把中国人挡在外面”，被坎摩尔用“长城”（Great Wall）进行调侃，而随后一6岁白人儿童更是语出惊人，说“要绕到地球另一边去，杀光中国人”。

　　此言一出，立刻引起了华人的不满和愤怒，并纷纷采取行动。19日北大未名BBS出现一则号召帖，整理了白宫请愿网、CHANGE公益请愿网站以及国会亚太裔委员会成员、ABC高层、当地议员等人的邮箱，号召华人团结起来，发出请愿信，联合抵制美国广播公司和吉米·坎摩尔，表达对这种种族主义言论的坚决抵制。此贴在FACEBOOK，人人网等社交网络上被纷纷转载。除少数人认为小题大做外，绝大部分人认为“是要做点什么表明态度了”。

　　在相关请愿网站上，大部分请愿者是华人，也有从姓名看显然是西方人的请愿者。他们写下留言“我也有两个孩子，我简直难以想象一个小孩子说出这样的话，他背后的成年人花了多少时间教给他仇恨”；“在文明社会以任何方式宣传大屠杀都是犯罪”；“很难过听到这样的言论。让孩子讨论屠杀？我为吉米·坎摩尔和美国广播公司感到耻辱”；等等。

　　现居德克萨斯州的张先生。张先生说，这种言论替换成任何一个种族都会引起轩然大波，在这样令人震惊的论调面前，一贯“低调”的华人也不能再沉默下去了。这个孩子接受了怎样的教育、因为什么说出了这样的话也许不重要，但节目居然播出了这个实际上就表明了他们的态度，说严重点他们在慢慢灌输“华人可以被屠杀”的观念，这是非常危险的。张先生还说，他的太太是白人，他在和太太、岳母讨论这个问题时，她们也都非常震惊，认为向小孩子灌输暴力、排华的人不能被姑息；华人们有必要举行相关的抗议活动向他们表明自己的态度。

　　在美国的“城市数据网”（City-Data）论坛上也看到了对于这次事件的讨论。大部分讨论者对此表示震惊和不满。他们认为这是“自由主义者教育孩子打打杀杀的恶果”，有些人开始反思“这些孩子们都听见了奥巴马关于要炮轰叙利亚的演讲，怎么能不受影响”。

　　白宫请愿网站的签名已经达到将近4000，并且在加速增长。华人们希望“发出声音”，杜绝此类事件再次发生。

批ABC道歉無誠意全美華人動員抗議（駱舒嫻）

舊金山華人利用周末休息時間趕製28日抗議所用的條幅、口號等文宣材料。（「都督」提供）

「美國廣播公司」（ABC）日前就「吉米金莫直播秀」辱華言論26日致函「80-20促進會」政治行動委員會主席吳仙標表達「歉意」。不過包括舊金山、紐約在內的華人27日均表示，ABC這一動作與華人社區的訴求相差甚遠，各地28日中午的抗議活動不會叫停。此外，芝加哥、西雅圖、休斯頓等地區華人也紛紛吹響「集結號」，計畫在當地舉行抗議活動。

新澤西州電腦行業人士、紐約抗議發起者icemount27日指出，ABC道歉信是寫給吳仙標本人，信中只承認節目冒犯華人，「暗示是華人感情受傷，不懂他們的娛樂、幽默」，卻沒有承認是ABC自己犯了錯，更沒有金莫本人的道歉，這樣的「道歉」令人無法接受。

icemount表示，80-20的努力值得稱讚，ABC的信函「只是意識到問題，卻沒有意識到自己錯誤…每一個有正義感有良心的人，出於對人的生命的尊重，都不會允許開這種歪曲、輕浮的不當玩笑，這關係到整個社會意識導向，不只關係到華人社區，更不是面子或感覺，是要堅持原則」，如果草草道歉了事，難保沒有下次。所以這次事件不能輕易妥協，必須有人對此負責，抗議的最低目標是ABC必須解僱吉米金莫，以及相關負責人員作出正式、全面的道歉，否則華人必將抗爭到底。

舊金山抗議活動發起者「都督」27日也向本報表示，舊金山抗議計畫不會有任何改變，「風雨無阻，下冰雹也要去」，撤下金莫脫口秀、全面封殺金莫和要求聯邦通訊問委員會（FCC）介入調查三項要求也缺一不可。「都督」指出，ABC的信無論從形式到內容都毫無誠意，「簡直是對我們智商的侮辱」，此信一出，非但沒有平息事態，反而激起更多華人義憤，截止到27日中午，單是「都督」接到的報名人數就已突破千人，此外還有眾多當地社團參與。

在洛杉磯，美國華人社團聯合會表示，ABC的「道歉信」未達到華人社區要求，南加新、老僑團和越柬寮僑社28日將向ABC遞交聯名抗議信，要求金莫本人必須在電視上作出正式道歉，且ABC官網上應登出書面道歉信。

芝加哥網友wherever號召當地華人同在28日中午到當地ABC抗議，西雅圖、休斯頓、費城等地華人也都相繼動員，準備抗議。

抗议“杀光中国人”是为了制止仇恨（侨报网）

ABC电视台的吉米鸡毛秀（Jimmy Kimmel Live）“杀光中国人”言论事件持续发酵。华人以各种形式发出声音，表示不满和愤怒，并敦促相应的处理。美国广播公司资深执行副总裁丽莎·贝格（Lisa Berger）和ABC副总裁蒂姆·麦克尼尔（Tim McNeal）日前联名发给“80-20促进会”的道歉信表示，他们“绝不会有意让华裔、亚裔群体感到难过”，因为节目的目的只是“娱乐”。他们还表示已经“尽量减低这一事件的影响”，意指ABC官网上已经撤下了节目视频。

但是，ABC高管的行为并不足以平息事端。正如许多华人指出的，一封发给私人的、语气含糊的信件并不能解决问题。ABC高管发布针对全社会的公开信进行道歉才是此次事件合适的处理方法。既然节目是公开播出的，道歉也应该是公开的。据报道，全美华人继续以请愿、游行等形式表示抗议，要求更为正式、深刻的道歉。10月28日，纽约、旧金山、洛杉矶等地爆发游行抗议活动；11月2日，波士顿等地的华人也将走上街头。目前，白宫请愿网站上关于这次事件的签名已经近6万，离必须要答复的10万签名还有一小半距离，离签名结束还有20天。华裔民选官员、社区人士纷纷发出呼吁，期待华人在其中发出自己的声音。

“杀光中国人”童言无忌还是有成人的指使，是此间热议的话题，大部分人支持后一种看法，即问题在于电视台。他们认为，6岁男孩说出“杀光中国人”后，主持人吉米·坎摩尔不否定不阻止，就是失职和越界的行为。而节目由其后期制作完成和播放，更代表电视台的态度。此事首先伤害到了华人。国会众议员赵美心就认为“杀光中国人”并非玩笑，对美国华人而言这是一个恐吓信号。另一名国会众议员孟昭文发表声明，严厉批评该节目不负责任的行径，伤害华裔民众感情，并要求其道歉。

其次，伤害到了美中友谊。中国拿出大量外汇储备购买美国国债，是对美国经济的贡献，有利于稳定美元和美国经济，是经济常识。美国不能恩将仇报，媒体更不能就此利用小孩的“童言无忌”来妖魔化。

再有，这一事件的要害是在下一代中播种仇恨。对此，不仅是华人，许多西方人士也站出来主持公道。他们指出，听任这种言论和节目泛滥，不仅华人，美国孩子也是受害者。如洛加大孔子学院院长简·苏珊（Susan P. Jain）认为，ABC主持人不但没有对孩子的幼稚言论加以纠正，反而还把这种客观上传递种族仇恨的画面公布于众，这是一种极不负责的表现，将一种不健康的观念灌输给了美国的下一代。洛加大教授卡妮（Perla Karney）表示，孩子们看好莱坞打打杀杀的片子太多了，张嘴闭嘴“杀杀杀”倒见怪不怪，但主持人应当在节目上加以引导，教育孩子们什么话是对的，什么观念是错的。但遗憾的是他没有这么做，而是轻描淡写地说了句“这个想法很有趣”，这就辜负了一个主流媒体对民众所肩负的社会责任。

所以，“杀光中国人” 事件的要害是播种仇恨。华人的抗议活动，不仅是为了自己的利益，也是为了我们下一代有一个更纯净的社会环境。正如一位华裔抗议者说的，过去发生的事情，我们无法改变，但是可以不忘记；未来发生的事情，我们也许看不到，但是可以预防；今天发生的事情，我们可以采取行动，改变轨辙。这就是华人对此事不依不饶的理由。

30日华人赴好莱坞抗议ABC电视台辱华（高睿）

由洛杉矶华人学生团体发起的抗议ABC电视台反华言论的示威游行将于30日中午在好莱坞大道吉米秀录影棚外举行，学生发起人派崔克（Patrick）希望能有更多的华人加入游行队伍，以壮大抗议声浪。

派崔克表示，日前他已经将这次示威抗议活动向洛杉矶警局报备，现在已收到许多网友报名，他还把示威活动的消息通过电邮群发给南加大等多个中国学生团体，希望他们能发动更多的华人学生加入到这场抗议活动中来。目前，他和同学们正在加紧赶制抗议横幅、标语和宣传材料。

除派崔克外，还有一位华人Long Tian发起了11月9日的ABC抗议活动。据了解，28日旧金山、纽约、芝加哥等城市的华人已经举行了抗议ABC的示威活动，在未来的几天里，休斯敦、西雅图、达拉斯和波士顿的华人也将加入到抗议行列当中。ABC电视台抗议活动地址是：6840 Hollywood Blvd. Hollywood, CA 90028。

APAPA has been closely following the recent incident on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel show, where a young boy proposed "kill all the Chinese" as a solution to our national debt problem. While a child can sometimes say outrageous things, the show was not live and such inflammatory comment could have been edited out by the show or ABC. Instead, the show played on October 16th, to the disbelief of Chinese and Asian Americans in the US and throughout the world. A widespread community uproar all over the country and in cyberspace forced ABC to send an apology to 80-20 Initiative. However, the apology was insufficient, without sincerity and contained no action against those responsible.

While some may excuse the episode as "just entertainment", we know that hate speech leads to hate crime. Are we to teach our children that we can joke about genocide? Would this have been shown if it was about other minorities? "Kill all blacks"? "Kill all Jews"? Chinese/Asian Americans must stand up and demand action! How do you think others will look at us if we can't even get 100,000 signatures on a petition against making fun of killing an entire race?

APAPA strongly urge you to go to the link below and sign the petition. Registering is easy and takes less than 1 minute. For our children's future, we must stand up and be counted. . .NOW!!
Don't forget to ask your entire family to sign. . .then pass it onto your friends. We're counting on you to help us reach 100,000. . . 200,000. . .signatures.

I encourage everybody read that PDF (the fax page from ABC) carefully, like I did - and make your own judgement. That fax actually tells more about the story than Mr. Woo's long announcement.

Mr. Cheng:
Please scroll all the way down at the bottom, where there is a link to a pdf letter from ABC, which clearly indicates an apology. Please know that I do not work for 80-20. I just heard about them and thought it would be a good organization to mobilize to address this issue. Please don’t be so quick to criticize. Think first about what you can and have done for the community.

I do not see ABC publish/post any apology anywhere. An apology that 80-20 said ABC made to 80-20 and asked 80-20 to pass on to other Asian Americans... ? And if anybody care to read that so-called apology letter, you judge yourself. I do not see any apology - I only see how desperate 80-20 is to benefit from this incident.

Judging from the wording of 80-20''''s announcement letter and the wording of the ABC letter, it seems to me that 80-20 had desperately begged ABC for an apology, and pathetically attempted to claim credit from any meaningful back-stepping of ABC. After failed on both accounts, 80-20 shamelessly announced a non-existing victory and hastefully called for more membership and donation in name of its non-existing victory - hoping nobody would notice they are nothing but a bunch of clowns.

Please, 80-20, stop pretending you are some sort of representative of Asian Americans. It is distasteful because you represent nobody but your bosses in DNC. If ABC truly wants to apologize, they make public apology to Asian Americans directly. Waving a page of fax from ABC and claiming you fought for Asian Americans and won - it is beyond pathetic - it is actually an insult to Asian Americans'''' intelligence.

]ABC Apologizes to People of Chinese Descent Through 80-20 PAC. After 2.5 days of hard negotiations, 80-20 obtained an apology from ABC for airing the "kill every Chinese" segment on the "Jimmy Kimmel Live" which is actually not live. 80-20 took ABC executives to task for their grievous lack of judgment. On the other hand, we can shrug off those kids' statements, because "Kids say the darndest things."
Two high ABC executives asked 80-20 to convey ABC's "sincere apology" to all persons of Chinese descent. On 10.23, after S. B. Woo, President of 80-20 PAC contacted ABC, it immediately took down the offensive segment on the Youtube. However, 80-20 didn't announce that progress, because intense negotiation was continuing.
80-20 PAC is proud to have served the Chinese Am. component of the Asian Am community by being the ONLY organization to have obtained a verbal & written
apology from ABC. This incident is a teachable moment for our community -- the importance of an Asian Am organization that has the stature & ability to serve the rightful interests of our community. It illustrates the importance of SELF RELIANCE. Please DONATE to 80-20 EF's SELF project. Click on http://admin.80-20nj.info/cgi/80/e?l=8/au/1/f&w=no .

==============================
PRESS RELEASE: ABC Apologizes to People of Chinese Descent Through 80-20 PAC

80-20 PAC, which is by far the largest Asian American political action committee with an email list of 350,000 e-addresses, announced today that ABC's top executives gave verbal and written apologies for permitting an offensive segment in "Jimmy
Kimmel Live" to air. It requested S. B. Woo, President of 80-20 National Asian American Political Action Committee, to be a conduit to convey "our sincere
apology" to the "Chinese community, Asian Community, anyone of Chinese descent or any community at large."

ABC also apologized for letting the offensive segment to get on Youtube linkage. ABC stressed that upon being contacted by 80-20 PAC, it has since "taken swift action" to remove it and promised to â€œedi 5f92 t(ing) it out of any future airing of the show.

The written apology was signed by ABC's Executive Vice President, Alernative Series, Specials and Late Night, Lisa Berger, and Vice President, Talent Development and Diversity, Tim McNeal. Mr. McNeal also verbally requested S. B. Woo to convey ABC's eagerness to have Asian American writers, actors and producers apply for jobs with ABC. It is one way to avoid such unfortunate incident in the future -- through diversity in its organization. McNeal said, "ABC takes achieving diversity very seriously." Interested parties may reach his office at Tim.McNeal@ABC.com.

Mr. McNeal has also offered to ask the producer of the "Jimmy Kimmel Live' to "personally apologize." Woo preferred a written apology from the top executives
which was sent subsequently.

S. B. Woo said, "Many worked to achieve this success. 80-20 is very much aware that many different individuals and organizations in the Chinese, Asian and other communities have made great efforts asking ABC to apologize. They organized a petition at the White House, and planned demonstrations in NY & SF. The Chinese media, in particular, did an outstanding job in calling our community's at…

Hi, All: Good news! ABC has apologized to us through 80-20 PAC. This is a small victory. It further confirms this is an important issue that needs to be addressed. It shows we do matter, and have the rights and power to get heard. Congratulations to our first victory, which I hope is one of many to come.

The aired program is for sure NOT within the protection of freedom of speech pertinent to commercial messages. The bottom line is to file a suit against ABC and the host for monetary damages and/or injunction. It could be a class action suit one as many people are similarly situated. The best the U.S. goverment could do is to cite ABC and its subsidary stations with a fine under the certain federal laws that prohibits the promotion of violence or racially hatred conduct, similarly to the Janet Jackson incident for exposure at the Super Bowl years ago, evey affiliated TV stations got fined individually by the U.S. government.

Fighting for our children is exactly why so many of us feel the need to speak up. Ideally, we should be at peace with everyone in the society. Fighting for our rights sometimes does have the risk of alienating us from other groups of people. However, the reality in a multi-ethnic and multi-cultural society is that everyone needs to speak up or even push the envelope to get understanding and respect. Plus, the culture in the U.S. is that if you don’t speak up and let others know your boundary, you are invisible, or marginalized. There is a saying in America “squeaky wheel gets the grease”. If you are working in a corporate situation surrounded by the majority Americans, you will know what this means.
11 years in the U.S. is not long. It takes about 20 years to really get to know the U.S., how things work, how to survive here. Sometimes that is not even long enough. Many Chinese don’t socialize with the local Americans all their lives here. So they don’t know how Americans think, don’t even know when they are being insulted, or treated unfairly. Chinese have a very high tolerance for mistreatment, and discrimination. Many tend to suffer silently, or take the high road thinking the fight is too petty, beneath them. Remember 阿Q？ So little by little, over time, anyone can step on our toes, insult us, or even threaten to kill us.
That’s what’s at stake here. I suggest you read the history book “People’s History of United States”. You will understand how American Indians lost their land, lost their lives, and got to where they are today. They were not united. They didn’t have sophisticated organization. They didn’t have leadership. They didn’t fight smartly. Now they are pushed to little patches of land called Indian Reservations.
Now that may have dampened your American dream a bit. But that’s the reality you have to deal with. The sooner you wake up to it, the better prepared you are. I was like you over 20 years ago, full of idealism, full of worship for the “American Way”. Waking up has been painful. But I think it is called growth and maturity.

對華人社區抗議ABC和要求道歉的行動，爾灣加大教授陳勇表示「應該採取一切和平、非暴力方式抗議」。陳勇指出，對於說出這句話的六歲孩童，華人社區不需要反應過度，而且應看到這種言論並不反映美國政府對華政策或主流社會的態度，然而對於直接將節目播出的ABC須強烈抗議，「言論自由不代表可以允許公然發表這類種族主義言論」，這一言論也不符合自文藝復興以來西方資本主義經濟的核心精神——規則和信用，「欠債不想還錢？遊戲規則不是這麼玩的，也不符合西方資本主義一貫強調的信用經濟」。

伯格教授：“你知道我是个陆军历史专家，谈到海军的时候并不多，因此就我目前所了解的简单谈谈。的确中国军事学者的观点大多出于美国提供的观点与研究结果，其中当然有许多是美国人有意释放出来的，这造成了中国学者跟着美国意图思考的弊病。德国军事教育一直有自己独特的风格，这与德国的民族主义与民族性有很大关系，这也让德国在二战中付出了惨重代价。

我父亲直到去世那天还戴着当兵时的手表，而且时间指针永远停在当年进攻苏联的那一刻，这种情结让德国与美国和俄国都保持着某种距离。德国人承认二战罪行，但不承认自己比苏联人或美国人差，而日本人表面不肯承认罪行，但内心对美国、俄国乃至中国有深刻恐惧感。中国年轻军事学者不但与西方军事教育脱节，而且也与中国老一辈军事家思想脱节，其中明显一点就是缺少必胜精神，顾忌太多，自己吓唬自己。如今中国学者们在思考国际力量对比时常犯一个错误，那就是没有学会从对手的角度看问题，一味强调自身的弱点而畏惧对抗，这本身就是中了对手的讹诈之策。就保卫钓鱼岛战略而言，中国人并没有看清美日对中国的恐惧，处处强调韬晦，这导致丧失战略主动权” 。

那小兵：“ 您很理解这种状况。您研究克劳塞维茨军事思想非常有成就，他的军事战略思想是整个西方军事思想的基础，请您从战略与战术层面给中国读者谈谈如何运用西方军事思想保卫钓鱼岛与南海吧。"

伯格教授：“首先，应当了解中国的对手战略意图，然后评估对方的战斗意志与方式，再然后评估敌我实力对比，之后才能制定战略战术。我们明白战争是政治的继续。在任何情况下，都不应把战争看成独立的东西，而要看作是政治的工具，是为政治服务的。战争爆发之后，并未脱离政治，仍是政治交往的继续，是政治交往通过另一种手段的实现，是打仗的政治，是以剑代笔的政治。美英两国在二战中就建立了所谓“ 围堵欧亚大陆” 的战略同盟，那时对手是德国，德国与苏联交火让英美趁机攻入，最终德国失败。

在二战后，那时的假设敌人包括了俄国与中国这两个潜在超级大国，一旦其中一个大国与其他一个大国开战，美国就将选其中一个联合制服另一个，从而用最低成本掌控两个超级大国。美国对于俄国和中国的经济与军事战略围堵计划依然有效，但其中外部情况发生了变化，美国有些不知所措。这个战略弱点有两个：一是伊斯兰国家的崛起造成西方文化与东方文化冲突升级，这带来了从来未有过的新挑战(这一点个人认为是未来第三次世界大战的根源，编者注);二是欧盟、俄、中三国相互依赖加强，美、英、日联合向心力减弱.

美国十分担心俄国与中国会因为发生动乱而走向伊斯兰式极端主义，故此并不敢相逼太甚，而且会继续制约日本与韩国的军事冒险。很大程度上，美国不敢真正触动中国的霍姆斯海峡与马六甲海峡生命线，担心中国背水一战造成美日韩战线彻底被摧毁。美国从中国历史中得出一个结论：每次中国打仗就会促进民族大团结，同时解决贫富不均等社会问题，中央集权相应大大加强，相比之下，美国日本韩国这些民主国家主动发动战争将极大的激怒国民。因此美国希望中国继续和平演变而对美国有利。

中国对于保卫钓鱼岛不必担心美国真正介入，但可以适当选择时机给美国面子出来调停。从经济学角度讲，战争恢复能力比打赢战争本身更重要，看看德国与日本就是这样崛起的，再看看那些没有参战的南美洲国家，一个都没崛起，因为他们被既得利益集团拖住了” 。

伯格教授：“我读过一些中国现代军事著作，但觉得像《超限战》之类的作品都缺少军事战略思想格局的，太过拘泥于技术层面，显然受到了西方武器制胜论影响。就目前美俄中平衡的格局看，中国相对最强的战争要素就是武器，尤其是核武器，这就是不怕打输的底牌，这让对手们明白无论战争如何发展中国都不会输，更不会割地赔款。

中国最弱的是缺少实战经验和军事思想训练，在常规武器系统中缺少某些关键技术，但这些都可以通过实践迅速取得。因为中国对这些方面过多的顾忌，因此南海各国对中国不断讹诈，比如，越南每次向中国要钱之前必定先在南海制造事端，强化姿态，而后从中国把钱拿走，这和从前匈奴人逼迫中国提供物资钱粮有何区别.

菲律宾也在试图用同样的方式从中国得到好处。其实，我预料今后在钓鱼岛和南海更多出现的武器是“ 冷兵器” ，也就是装甲舰艇相互冲撞，这属于心理战范畴。日本人也在试图对中国实施心理战，他们正通过媒体与巡逻强化一个假象，那就是“ 日本对于钓鱼岛掌握实际控制权” ，我到想问问日本人在那茫茫大海上凭什么实际控制了钓鱼岛?难道中国船去和日本船去有不同吗?难道日本建立的岛上海防吗?日本人使用这个心理战术的原因是他们认定中国人是农耕民族，农耕民族往往误用陆地划分的思维划分海洋，让中国人心理上接受日本的战略主动权。

伯格教授：日本债务深重、韩国惧怕朝鲜、越南经济依赖中国、菲律宾是个变相美国殖民地、印度本身陷于民族与社会危机，故此中国相对是形势最好的国家，仍在上升之中，没有必要惧怕他们。

美国越是打压中国就越造成中国冷战思维加剧，这对于美国非常可怕。中国最可怕的就是畏惧本身，没有听说一个13亿人的国家整体怕失去朋友的，中国人民与中国人民就是最牢靠的盟友，比北约加上华沙国家人口更多。只要有“ 以战止战” 的决心，没有那个国家敢得罪中国，谁也不敢与永远无法消灭的中华民族战斗到底。

（个人愚见：假洋鬼子和蠢猪狗蛋，不属于中华民族。）

YJ: You misunderstood what it means to live in the U.S. We are exercising our rights by protesting and we are not suffering. On the contrary, we are quite happy as we can do things like this. This is the only one of the two countries where an individual can sue the country. If you live here long enough, You will come to appreciate that and participate in things like this, hopefully.

It's ok to be critical of Chinese government. There are many things they
could improve on. But when the whole people of China, including us are
attacked, we need to be united, unless you don't consider yourself Chinese
anymore. If we don't, we as a people get NO respect, no matter how good the
Chinese government is.

I thought we set up this group separate from NJCCPS so that people can debate political issues thoroughly. But let’s not get back to attacking each other personally if there is disagreement. If you disagree, say what you disagree on, and why, but don’t do personal attacks. Let’s make this a rule so that we can all be elevated to be adults, and professional. Watch American politician debate. How they keep cool, no matter how each candidate disagrees with each other. But no one would attack personally. That’s called professional debate. Let’s learn to improve our style and manner.

Thank you.

“杀光中国人！”该沉默还是发声？
十月十七日，美国ABC夜间脱口秀主持人吉米金波在搞笑节目中采访四个美国小孩，当问到“美国欠中国1.3万亿美元，我们怎么还？”一个白人小孩回答“杀光所有中国人。”背景里响起一片笑声。这档节目全美播放，至少几百万人看了。
北美崔哥的我是搞脱口秀的，这档节目我经常看。当时虽然听着不大舒服，但是毕竟是小孩子狂言，童心无邪，童言无忌，也就没往深里想。第二天，我的一个美国朋友把这段视频发给我，写了句“This is too much. He should be fired.” ( 这太过份了，他应该被解雇。)
我心里咯噔一下，哎哟，美国人都看不过去了，是不是这事开始有点天理难容了。我于是开始小题大做地琢磨：你看哈，如果把“杀光所有中国人”里的“中国人”三个字换成“犹太人，”“同性恋人”“黑人”“阿拉伯人，”那全世界会怎么反应呢？
凭崔哥我在美国25年的经验，我相信全球犹太人和以色列会以最强大的方式抗议并且动用犹太人的势力抵制和封杀这档节目，黑人朋友有可能考虑大暴动，阿拉伯人绝对会考虑自杀式攻击，同性恋者们比较和平，但是来个半年的静坐示威也会把正常人烦死。
正因为这些民族喷血的反应，才导致美国的媒体不敢拿他们开玩笑，即便偶尔不小心走了嘴，当事人和总裁一定会道歉甚至辞职才能平息众怒。可是，为什么如此侮辱华人的玩笑却无一人发声呢？
按说，美国这么个民主正直平等的国家，是不会容忍这种赤裸裸的灭绝种族的语言的（哪怕是幼童的玩笑）。我终于有点愤慨了。
冷静一想，这“杀光所有中国人”里面肯定包括我，也包括我辛辛苦苦在美国生的三个儿子，包括在美国定居的五百多万华人，包括满怀对美利坚热爱的留学生和新移民，包括带着千万现金来支援美国四个现代化建设的土豪们，甚至包括那些中文都不会说了只是目前长得还像中国人的人。
都扬言要杀死我们了，我们要是一声都不吭，假装没听见，有点对不起自己的良心，也对不住这么多年的爱国主义教育。
要不我们吼几声？
可是国歌里好像说了：中华民族到了最危险的时刻，每个人（才能）被迫地发出最后的吼声。起来，起来！
几个美国小屁孩子要“杀光我们，”难道就算是最危险的时刻了吗？万一我们抗议了，美国使馆记仇不发签证怎么办？美国报纸公布我在美国的存款怎么办？美国税务局抽查我们收入怎么办？美国房管局查我们家电表怎么办？美国城管提前让我拆迁怎么办？
不少富豪和社会精英劝戒我不要和美国犯刺儿了，不要和小孩子一般见识，俗，丢份，一点大国心胸都没有。
没错，北美崔哥的我这人心眼就是有点小。我觉得既然国家都崛起了，钱多得都能砸死人了，GDP都高得没人可超了，那咱们这辈儿人就应该在世界上立个新规矩：以后甭管哪个国家，哪个民族，谁要是侮辱了，欺负了，伤害了中国人，一定要让他们付出代价。这么做是让咱们的后代在这个世界上不受欺负，不被取笑，有面子，有尊严，有安全感。想到这儿我特别热血沸腾，觉得终于有一次我不是为了哗众取宠而写文章了。
美国有不少网友写信让我当头儿，我觉得还真轮不到我拔这个份。崔哥我巡演美国几十个州，上百个城市，发现凡是有中国人的地方就有一大堆协会，什么同乡会，促进会，同盟会。会长和副会长一站起来好几百。这绝对是会长领军的好机会，如果每一个协会都发点声，汇合起来就是“风在吼，马在叫，黄河在咆哮。”
我越想越开始真生气了。一个六七岁的小孩儿，居然张嘴就能说出“杀光所有中国人，”他要是没听他妈他爸说过类似的话，没看过类似的影视节目，没玩过类似的游戏，他能凭空来这么一句相当有深意的话吗？
目前，我还是认为ABC主持人吉姆金波（Jimmy
Kimmel）只是做了档不合适宜的节目，谈不上什么恶毒暴行，给华人真诚道个歉，也就还是个好同志。我们不会得理不让人。
在美国的华人朋友，拿出十分钟，把下面的白宫请愿书填一下，已经有上万名同胞这样做了，但是必需要有十万签名才能发挥作用。这是美国宪法和民主赋予我们的权力。别怕麻烦，为了我们的后代，这点麻烦不算啥。来吧。

I really didn't mean to kick anybody out, it is suggestive, please read it again.
By the way, in couple of years, I am going to kick me out of this country. :)

我有两个孩子，我希望我的后代生活在一个种族和谐的社会，不希望华人和其他种族格格不入，自立门户成一个国中国。本来这件事情是一个娱乐节目，大家笑笑就算了。而且我看过视频，主持人也许出乎意料，不知道该如何应付，只好，用你太有才了敷衍一下。我觉得很多人火冒三丈，可能是对interesting idea 望文生义了。所以像大家解释一下。这暴露了一些问题，

1，很多人对美国没感情，总一外来人自居。
2，以弱势群体自居，事无巨细，总以受害者的姿态出现。
3，种族歧视思想严重，以犹太人为榜样，轻视其他族裔。凡是总犹太人怎么样，黑人怎么样，印度人怎么样，白人怎么样。老兄，我为什么要学犹太人，因为他们比我们有钱?

我在美国生活了十一年，我觉得，美国对于各个族裔来说，是相对公平的。虽然在大学录取方面有欠缺，但那不是针对华人的。我觉得这是一个误会。美国人即使40多岁了，他们的思想还是很简单的。
大家去看看视频吧，把interesting idea 用你太有才了替换一下，有什么感受?

What you referred are incidents. People choose to live in US. Nobody forces nobody to stay. If people think it is hostile here, the solution is to move to a better place.
Once people decide to stay, the expectation is to treat themselves as part of the society and contribute to it.
Think about it, why do you want to stay US? Do you know you are an American? Or you still think you are a Chinese living in US?

I don't know about your experience in the U.S. Maybe you are lucky enough that you have never experienced any disrespectful or sarcastic comments or unfair treatment here, or haven't noticed any. But that doesn't mean it doesn't happen. It has happened to earlier immigrants, and is still happening today. One of my good friends is from Taiwan and has been here for over 40 years since he was 2. But about 15 years ago he got beat up by three big white men in Queens at a gas station with a baseball bat, only because the three men shouted "Chinks, go back to your home country", and my friend retorted that America was his country. The baseball bat hit one of his eyes and shattered everything. He lost his eye. What's more upsetting, When the three men were hauled in front of a judge in a NYC court, the judge didn't sentence the three men, except charging them a small fine.
A few years ago, a Chinese man was pushed into the subway tracks in NYC and was killed instantly by a coming train because the attacker shouted some insults to him for being Chinese and the Chinese guy wrestled with the attacker.
Recently, there was an article about a Chinese student studying at a university in the mid-west. Her English wasn't good. The professor kept insulting her in front of the class, telling her she was stupid and she should go back home, and he would kill her if he had a gun with him.
On and on.
Even if you think you are an individual immigrant, ignorant people here will still link you to Chinese Americans, and most likely to China, and may treat you that way. There is nothing wrong with that, except that ignorant people may typecast and stereotype you negatively, instead of trying to get to know you as an individual. On the other hand, if you are part of the Chinese community and have its support, you can be stronger when facing challenges or misunderstanding. Why is that bad?

"China" is not "Chinese Government". It just include Chinese Government, but it's not only Chinese Government. Mostly it means a county, it means the people in the country, it means a nationality, etc... Always use Chinese Government to against China is not smart. I don't like to discuss "big picture" based on "partial picture". I like to make American people to be friendly with China regardless who is the government. It's funny always use "Chinese Government" to describe everything related to China. Plus don't you think "Mao Zedong", "Zhou Enlai", "Hu Jintao", 'Xi Jinping" etc... are from Chinese people? What are they? Are they Janpanese were dropped to China to rule Chinese people?! History are moving in the way of itself, not in the way of IT theory, not in the way of engineering. You can not engineer society, people, culture, etc... Social science are different from technical science. How's "国富“ can not benefit Chinese people? Have you seen China are building more advanced industries which belonged to the rights of advanced countries before? That benefit Chinese people in many ways. Of course, they also relize that they need to make people more rich. Well, it's on the way. Your reasons of why Chinese people are more respected than before are not comprehensive. I believe many Chinese Americans understsand what I'm saying here.

Don't use "partial picture" mentality to debate with my "big picture" issue. If Muslem not a perfect example for you, then use Iran. I believe that Iranese in this country feel a breath release when Iran and US start to soothe their relationships. I talked to an Iranese before, he said Iran is not what Americans said. Well, I get it. Check history, Iran had great civilization history. Watch CNN, look at the pictures and people in Iran, they don't look "evil" to me. I have a friend who traveled all over the world, he told me to use different angle to look at the world.

It''s "辩证法“。Do you think Muslim in this country feel happy where they are standing? Do you think they are getting enough respect as they should? No. Because they have a miserable background so called "evil" by Americans. Do you think Chinese would feel the same way if China were 200 years ago? They felt like rats on the street, always have to look people''s face, out of everybody''s way. Now we feel proud to be a Chinese, because we have a strong background behind us. There is a "国富民强“ China standing behind us. When you have strong/rich relatives, you got more respect, that''s natural.
The only thing I want from American people are changing their "China Threat" attitude, be friendly with China. We are the most beneficial group could be for that result. Imagine you are the only Chinese in this country, you have no way to recuite Chinese professionals, all resources you have is your weak, poor relatives in China. Well, how do you feel? We need to be strong as a race, help China to be strongger as our background.

If you do not know how to use your right, that means that you are not qualified to get the right. It is pretty sure that ''no right'' is ''no interest and benefit'' in this country.

We live in this country so do as the Romans do. Let's not keep comparing what can be done here to what can be done in China. One of the best things about this country is constitutional rights of any individual, or human rights. We the people are more powerful than the government, the media, or any institution. But use it or lose it. If you read history of the U.S., every new immigrant group has fought their way to the present to gain their rights. The Irish, Italians, Jews, blacks, Hispanics, and so on. The Chinese group is the weakest and there doesn't seem any voice here. That's why there is a general disrespect, or outright hostility towards China and Chinese in general in the media and politics, and among Americans. It is our responsibility to band together, to speak up, to educate others.

“Interesting Idea” may be a polite way to disagree, but also can mean something the listener hasn’t thought of. The host is the only adult at the table and has choices. He could have corrected the kid right on the spot if the comment is out of line. What the kid said was wrong and he could have said “no, you can’t do that, this is wrong”. But he didn’t and he didn’t have to be polite to the kids. This is where it is offensive. What’s more, ABC decided to air it, which implies their endorsement. That’s what’s wrong and outrageous. They would never dare to do that to the Jews and blacks or any other ethnic groups. ABC or Disney’s chief would have resigned or fired immediately. That’s why we need to protest.
One of the key skills to develop to survive and thrive in this country as a minority is to be tuned in, and hone our awareness and sensitivity towards bias, prejudice, and hostility, so that we can protect ourselves and our children, and defend ourselves when attacked. America is multi-cultural, but American public can be very ignorant, biased. I am sure you might have experienced this at work, or outside work, to some degree. We have a responsibility to educate others about our culture, and establish boundaries, just like any other ethnic group has done. This comes with experience, and time spent here, and more importantly, being tuned in. It’s never too late to start opening your eyes and ears and be aware.

The host not only did not correct the kid but said it was an “interesting idea”. What’s more outrageous ABC aired this despite the fact it was pre-recorded. It is a brazen act of terror against Chinese people, and an egregious hate crime. Imagine this is done to other ethnic groups, like the Jewish and blacks. The host would have been fired right away and ABC would have issued an apology already. We as a group need to band together to have our voices heard. Otherwise, this is going to no end.
I was very disturbed by Jimmy Kimmel’s ‘Kids Table’ show. It was aired on ABC recently and talked about killing all the Chinese so that the states do not need to pay back their debts to China. The kids might not know anything better. However, Jimmy Kimmel and ABC’s management are adults. They had a choice not to air this racist program, which promotes racial hatred. The program is totally unacceptable and it must be cut. A sincere apology must be issued. It is extremely distasteful and this is the same rhetoric used in Nazi Germany against Jewish people. Please immediately cut the show and issue a formal apology.
