The pretense is that it\u2019s about protecting the country\u2019s national security, rather than a bid to end freedom in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n<p>The bill will empower Beijing to override the city\u2019s independent legal system and local laws \u2014 as well as to extradite whoever it likes to the mainland to face kangaroo-court \u201cjustice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Extradition was the issue that kicked off Hong Kong\u2019s massive protests back in March 2019. But protests on the island can\u2019t stop a legislature in Beijing, the way they moved Hong Kong\u2019s lawmakers to drop the earlier bill.<\/p>\n<p>And this measure goes further, outlawing \u201ccollusion with foreign or external forces\u201d \u2014 with the central government handling at least some cases. It also will install a dedicated security-service office in Hong Kong \u2014 putting the jackboots on scene for use as needed.<\/p>\n<p>The Chinese Communist Party pretends this is about quelling unrest. In reality, it\u2019s all about killing freedom.\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/06\/22\/spelling-out-hong-kongs-doom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more Opinion <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">watch Movies<\/a> or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Spelling out Hong Kong\u2019s doom&#8221; June 22, 2020 | 8:12pm Enlarge Image Extradition was the issue that kicked off Hong Kong&#8217;s massive pro-democracy protests back in March 2019.
