The U.S., he said, has instigated the war in Korea to cover up its invasion of Formosa and to further "its fanatical design of dominating Asia and the world." Screamed Wu: "Who has shattered security in the Pacific? Have Chinese armed forces invaded Hawaii, or have U.S. armed forces invaded . . . Korea and Formosa? . . . The real intention of the U.S., as MacArthur has confessed, is ... to dominate every Asiatic port from Vladivostok to Singapore."

The U.S., he said, has gulled the 52 nations sharing in the police action in Korea. .Shrilled Wu to the 52, in a patent move to splinter the already divided U.N. majority: "Do not be taken in by the U.S., do not pull the chestnuts out of the fire for the U.S.—because . . . you must bear the consequences of your actions."

The U.S., he said, follows in the footsteps of Japan and is using Japan for the enslavement of Asia. In contrast, Russia's conduct is "righteous."

The Chinese people, he said, have arisen. "The Chinese people, who victoriously overthrew the rule on China's mainland of Japanese imperialism, and of American imperialism and its lackey Chiang Kaishek, will certainly succeed in driving out the United States aggressors and recover Taiwan [Formosa] and all other territories that belong to China ... As a result of the victories of the great Socialist October Revolution of the Soviet Union, of the anti-Fascist second World War, and of the great revolution of the Chinese people, all the oppressed nations and people of the East have awakened and organized themselves.

"Regardless of the savagery and cruelty of the American imperialist aggressors, the hard struggling people of Japan, the victoriously advancing people of Viet Nam, the heroically resisting people of Korea, the people of the Philippines who have never laid down their arms, and all the oppressed nations and peoples of the East will certainly unite in close solidarity. Yielding neither to the enticements nor to the threats of American imperialism, they will fight dauntlessly on to win the final victory in their struggle for national independence."

To Kiss a Buzz Saw. Throughout, Wu never recognized the fact that the forces in Korea under attack by his master were United Nations forces. In fact, Wu demanded that the U.N. apply "severe sanctions" against the U.S. for sending troops to Korea. He demanded that U.N. force an American "withdrawal" from Korea and Formosa* (i.e., turn both over to the Reds). Whether the U.N. did so or not, militant Red China, leading all Asia, would chase off "U.S. aggressors."
