      Any data that is not independently verified (ie, your hopeful propaganda), I don’t like.

      Unlike you, I don’t chill for a single entity, I simply like people to be properly and fairly informed.

      You can refer back to the article that has actual data from multiple countries that count the number of false data used in Chinese scientific articles. If you’re confused about actual data versus wishful thinking.

          Ah yes, purporting an argument for another since you can’t counter their actual point.

            There is no actual point to counter. You’re evidently claiming that CSIS data is not reliable and called it Chinese propaganda. I can’t believe you provide this level of entertainment at no charge.

              Whatever your reason for doubting CSIS is, dont attributed to me. You have plenty on your plate as it is without making up claims by others.

                I’m not the one doubting CSIS who made the report that China’s gallium restriction are a national security threat to US.
