For the first time the new improved Chairman Mao Zedong and 'Little Mao' attended the NYC Veteran's Day Parade together.

Little Mao spoke to some of the north american veterans and informed them that China has had veterans of it's own for thousands of years, long before the creation of the USA.

He stated that "Vietnam invaded China in 1075. The Tibetans also invaded China..

The French and British invaded China in 1856.

The Invasion of China by the Eight Power Allied Forces on September 7, 1901 consisted of 8 countries which were Britain, the United States, France, Germany, Japan, Russia, Austria and Italy.

In addition China was invaded by Japan in 1895, 1931, and 1937.

China has also been invaded by tribes such as The Tatars, The Manchu Tribes in 1644, Turks (nomadics who moved to the west to flee from Han tribe, now Turkey), Xianbei tribes, Jurchens (mongolic tribe who established Qing dynasty, when they had independence), Khithan tribe (established Liao dynasty during Tang era), and the Mongols.

So one can see that China has been invaded by numerous forces throughout it's history which explains the Great Wall and the long heritage of Chinese veterans China still maintains today when the PRC (People's Republic of China) invaded North Korea, South Korea, Tibet, India, etc.."

The New Improved Mao stated his thoughts on Veteran's Day reflects a statement made by one of America's greatest generals:

Smedley Butler on Interventionism

-- Excerpt from a speech delivered in 1933, by Major General Smedley Butler, USMC.

"War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses.
I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.
I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.
There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.
It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.
I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.
I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.
During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents."

Both Mao's did agree on one thing, and that is, that the United States and it's allies are gonna have plenty of new veterans in the future but there will no longer be a Veteran's Day holiday.. only a memorial day..
