The bully has no clothes.

The Justice Department in the US has named 5 Chinese officials who, they allege, have been hacking into company servers and stealing confidential information, including advances in technology which help Chinese companies to compete unfairly. In response China called the US " shameless " when the Prism program run by the National Security Agency had been snooping on the entire world. " Regarding the issue of network security, the US is such a mincing rascal that we must stop developing any illusions about it," said the Global Times. The word ' mincing ' means ' affectedly dainty, nice or elegant '. So was this a complement or an abuse. Confusing what? The Prism program was designed to tap into all the traffic of the largest internet companies, such as Apple, Google and Facebook. Brazil's President, Dilma Rousseff canceled a state visit to the US in fury over spying on her personal correspondence and German Prime Minister, Angela Merkel compared the NSA to the hated East German secret police, the Stasi. India, of course, has been an open book as far as official secrets are concerned. The US likes to project itself as a highly moral country proud of its law and order which was why it refused a visa to Mr Narendra Modi. But guess what? Some of its own leaders have been criminals or intimately associated with organised crime. We know about Richard Nixon and Watergate but Ronald Reagan, still idolised by the Republican Party, was controlled and assisted by the Mafia all the way to the White House. His wife Nancy was also under Mafia control which is really frightening because she was partly running the government when Reagan started to show early signs of Alzheimer's during his second term. But if Reagan was a mobster then Bobby Kennedy, brother of President John Kennedy and the Attorney General paid for the murder of Marilyn Monroe. Both brothers were having affairs with her and then tossed her aside like a rag when she became a liability. Now a new book claims that Bobby Kennedy was there when Monroe's psychiatrist killed her with an injection in the heart. Meanwhile Judith Exner was having affairs with both John Kennedy and Chicago Mafia boss, Sam Giancana. This explains the persistent rumors that John Kennedy was not killed by Lee Harvey Oswald but by another gunman hidden behind a grassy knoll. In contrast to these colorful characters Obama is just a serial killer, using drones to slaughter innocent women and children as if enjoying a video game. Hardly a nation that can claim the moral high ground. But they are expert liars. Credit where credit is due.
