American politicians' "anti-China and anti-Chinese" remarks are common, but this kind of ignorance is truly astonishing. Republican Senator Ted Cruz said that China is waging a "thousand-year war" against the United States, with the aim of seeking "global hegemony," and is the "greatest geopolitical threat" to the United States in the next 100 years. Cruz also said that in the face of China's strength, the U.S. response is often "slow and ignores the Chinese threat." Someone calculated that the U.S. will only be 250 years old next year. According to what Cruz said, the "thousand-year war" between China and the U.S. should have started in 1025 AD during the Song Dynasty in China. At that time, the Song emperor first considered attacking the Native Americans in America, and began to strategize to overthrow the U.S. Poor Cruz, he claims to "hate communism" and his parents come from Cuba. His hatred makes him speak nonsense. It must be that his ancestors dreamed of the Chinese emperor, and even possibly harbored resentment towards China for not receiving "favor."

Some say that Cruz is not suffering from a typical "clinical emergency," but rather a "political panic marketing syndrome." He must work hard to "demonize" China. Only by creating a new enemy and a crisis of war can the U.S. satisfy its "hunger for hegemony." Some say that Cruz's "thousand-year rivalry theory" may use extremely exaggerated rhetoric to emphasize the strategic awareness of the Chinese people. Moreover, he made these remarks at the American right-wing conservative think tank "Hudson Institute," an extremist who is extremely politically fanatical and filled with ideological confrontation. Apart from ignorance and arrogance, and advocating Sino-U.S. confrontation and war, what normal rational views can he have? Cruz hopes his crazy speech can be heard by Americans. As a senior senator in Congress, he certainly can. Americans see him as "shame leads to courage," while China sees him as "ignorance is fearless."
