The ancestor left a sentence, "If the sky wants to die, it will make it crazy", and I think this sentence is very reasonable.
"If the heavens want to die, they will make them crazy", which means that if a person or a regime loses its mind due to arrogance, then the next step is to go to extinction, and there are many examples of this in history.
I'll give you a few examples, one is the king of Zhou, this person is called Di Xin, he is known for the "wine pond meat forest", he believes that "the destiny of heaven is in me", he is poor and extravagant, rigid and self-serving, cruel to Zhongliang, and digs out the heart of Bigan, which is very cruel. Finally, in the Battle of Muye, the Shang army defected, and the King of Zhou set himself on fire in Lutai, and the Shang Dynasty was destroyed by King Wu of Zhou.
The second person is Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, who claims to be "the god of the whole world", and walks "The Son of Heaven has his own destiny, what can the rats do to me?" Crazy remarks. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was so happy that he exhausted his national strength in the three expeditions to Goguryeo, and the digging of the Grand Canal cost the people and money. In 618 A.D., Yu Wenhua launched a mutiny, Yang Guang was hanged, and the second Sui Dynasty died.
The third person is Hitler, in 1941 Hitler opened up the Eastern Front of the Soviet Union and the Western Front of the Allied Forces at the same time, saying that "the German Third Reich will last for a thousand years", after the fiasco of the Battle of Stalingrad, he still refused to retreat, and finally in 1945, the Soviet army invaded Berlin, Hitler committed suicide in the bunker of the Chancellery, and Nazi Germany was destroyed.
The fourth person is former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, who ignored the UN ultimatum after the invasion of Kuwait in 1990, clamoring to "let the US military swim in a sea of blood", and before the 2003 war, he also assured the people that "victory is within reach", and finally the Iraq war broke out in 2003, the regime quickly collapsed, and was finally captured and hanged.
The fifth is Japanese militarism, in 1941 Hideki Tojo said that he would "solve the Chinese problem in three months", and then the Japanese army attacked Pearl Harbor, and in 1942, when it occupied Southeast Asia, it issued stamps of "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere", painting Britain and the United States as pigs and sheep to be slaughtered. Finally, in 1945, it was bombed by the U.S. military and surrendered unconditionally.
In 2009, Gaddafi tore up the UN Charter on the spot during his speech at the United Nations, and when the Arab Spring broke out in 2011, Gaddafi declared that "the people love me". In the same year, Gaddafi was captured and tortured by the opposition, and his body was displayed in cold storage.
All of the above people have a common characteristic, which is the "five steps of arrogance": the first step is overconfidence; The second step is the wrong decision; The third step is to lose the hearts and minds of the people; The fourth step is the outbreak of the crisis; The final step is to perish and collapse.
Lai Qingde of Taiwan Province has also been following this routine, this crazy five steps, Lai Qingde has completed the first three steps:
The first step is to be overconfident. Isn't this title given to him by Lai Qingde as arrogant as King Shang said, "The Mandate of Heaven is mine," Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, and Gaddafi said that he is "the king of African kings"? Historically, "Taiwan independence" leaders in the Taiwan region, such as Lee Teng-hui, Chen Shui-bian, and Tsai Ing-wen, did not dare to say that they were "Taiwan independence workers." Only Lai Ching-te dared to be so crazy and not only said that he was a "Taiwan independence worker" but also a "pragmatic Taiwan independence worker." What does it mean to be pragmatic? Pragmatism is to pay attention to reality, based on practice, and pursue practical results, which means not empty talk but action. So everyone says that Lai Qingde gave him this title, isn't it very crazy?
Looking at the second step taken by Lai Qingde, the wrong decision, what wrong decision did Lai Qingde make, and is the "new two-state theory" a wrong decision? Is it a wrong decision to clamore that the mainland of our motherland is a "hostile force outside the borders"? Is it a wrong decision to brutalize General Gao Anguo and other reunification figures on the island, to detain former Taiwan People's Party Chairman Ko Wen-che and other people with dissident political views, and to search for Fu Lai-hing, the chief of the Kuomintang caucus in Taiwan's legislature? Is it a wrong decision to prevent universities on the island from exchanging with 10 universities on the mainland of our motherland? Setting off a "wave of recalls" on the island to suppress dissidents, reducing the number of seats of the Kuomintang, and wanting to control the public opinion organs on the island, is it a wrong decision to say it alone? Is it a wrong decision to introduce the so-called 17 articles to resume "military trials" and put everyone at risk? Is it a wrong decision for Lai Qingde to incite confrontation, demonize the mainland, and arouse the hatred of the Taiwan people?
Looking at the third step taken by Lai Qingde, he lost the support of the people. A few days ago, a poll conducted by the "Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation" in Taiwan showed that Lai Qingde's satisfaction was only 29.2 percent, and his dissatisfaction was as high as 60.5 percent. The formation of an alliance of 75 scholars on the island has listed and denounced all the "bad things" that Lai Qingde has done in the past year or so in office. Since the beginning of this year, there have been more than five large-scale demonstrations in Taiwan by 10,000 people to oppose Lai Ching-teh's reliance on foreign countries to seek independence; on 11 January this year, a large-scale demonstration in support of former chairman of the Taiwan People's Party Ko Wen-cheh broke out in Taipei, demanding "justice for the Taiwan people." Is this the loss of popular support for Lai Ching-te?
Not only that, but within the green camp, Lai Qingde's actions have also lost the support of the people. Not long ago, the New Taipei Civic Progressive Party held a propaganda meeting, but the 2,000 green camp personnel that the DPP had planned to mobilize and participate in did not show up. When Zhuo Rongtai, the person in charge of Taiwan's "administrative department," spoke, there was almost no one in the audience. At the same time, the "infighting" of the DPP authorities has intensified, and important figures in the green camp, such as Chen Shui-bian, Annette Lu, and Hsieh Chang-ting, have all opposed Lai Qingde's "general recall." Huang Ming, a member of the Kaohsiung Civic Progressive Party, also openly opposed Lai Qingde, and was publicly supported by You Yinglong, chairman of the "Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation".
So let's look at the fourth step, the outbreak of the crisis. Has the Taiwan crisis erupted? The Taiwan people have repeatedly demanded that Lai Ching-te step down, the mainland's Ministry of Defense and the mainland's Taiwan Affairs Office have warned Lai Ching-te on many occasions, and our army has also held exercises against Lai Ching-te and other Taiwan independence elements on many occasions. On March 26, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council announced the email address for publicly reporting "Taiwan independence" elements. On April 1st, the Eastern Theater just released the video "Demon Suppression and Demon Extermination", Sun Wukong is holding a thousand jun sticks, and it is a somersault cloud, a doppelganger, a stealth technique, and a fixing technique. After that, China's Eastern Theater organized the army, navy, air force, rocket force, and other forces, and ships and planes to approach Taiwan Island in many directions, and practiced such subjects as naval and air combat readiness patrols, seizure of comprehensive supremacy, sea and land strikes, and blockade and control of key areas and roads, with the purpose of warning Lai Qingde and other "Taiwan independence" separatist forces.
can only say, congratulations to Lai Qingde, now Lai Qingde has completed the first four steps, and only the last step is left to perish and collapse. Our army has now continued to patrol the Taiwan Strait, and the operation of "locking Taiwan and closing the net" has in fact begun, and Lai Qingde's end can only be "annihilation," and no one can save him.
