Can anyone explain the total lack of understanding our friend Jim C exhibits in these forums? Is it that he/she is actually part of Obama's staff of propaganda pushers or is he/she really that dim?
He quotes the author "Fekete then says, "Chinese troops boarded British ships in international waters carrying opium to Chinese ports and destroyed their cargo..."
