Mandate

The Chinese have made no bones about the fact that they are enforcing in Hong Kong the laws that they inherited there from the British. One country, two systems, indeed. 

For that matter, the Chinese are enforcing those laws a great deal less brutally than the British did, above all under the same Labour Government that so grievously wronged the people of the Chagos Islands.

But "We are only enforcing the laws from the Colonial Period" is a familiar refrain the word over. If people wish to indicate their distaste in Hong Kong by unfurling the old flag, then the same might pointedly be done in Sur Baher, the demolition of which began today.

Let those whose homes are being demolished march under the flag of the British Mandate of Palestine, and see how much the "Anglosphere" fantasists, who hated the Hong Kong Chinese viciously when it mattered but who love the Israelis more than they love their own children, can bring themselves to dare to hate them then.
