        Beijing will only restrain after the #HongKongHumanRightsandDemocracyAct is passed by the House.

        Beijing is playing the long haul because they are scared of losing their image and the anniversary of enslavement is coming up fast.

        SCMP news always helps the USA to fight against China. I am wondering what kind of benefit can you get if China will be destroyed by the USA? Part of trade war. Do you think the Americans care about your daily life?

        Have the USA suddenly encountered brain damaged? Or both sight & ear defects? Can they see or hear the news on how the rioters hv done to HK? Probably laughing at the stupidity of the youths destroying HK on their own.
