Agree completely. Asian media needs to start growing balls and see the west for the inveigling snake that it is and start educating. Just take a look at that North Korean defector related channel I posted earlier, those commenters are wondering why NK is so hostile to innocent and sweet white people who never did any wrong /s. Never did any wrong like forcefully divide a nation with purges and massacres and napalm 20% of the population, yeah.

Genghis Khan was said by Rashīd al-Dīn Ṭabīb to have declared: "The greatest happiness is to vanquish your enemies, to chase them before you, to rob them of their wealth, to see those dear to them bathed in tears, to clasp to your bosom their wives and daughters." [101]

This is supposedly Chinggis Khan's quote according to a Persian Jew named Rashīd al-Dīn Ṭabīb, and not a quote straight from Mongol chronicles themselves. It could be a grossly exaggerated misrepresentation but I also don't doubt it completely seeing whose perspective it's coming from. Look up what happened to the Mongol envoys sent to the Khwarazmian Empire. Chinggis Khan rained hell on earth on the Khwarazmians after what they did to his initially peaceful diplomacy attempts. I wouldn't be surprised Chinggis Khan told Khwarazmians this to express what he really thought about them. But if Chinggis Khan acted according to this quote to every tribe he conquered then we wouldn't be here, lol.
