US leaders should reflect on their hate speeches
China DailyRepublican presidential candidate and former president Donald Trump is surrounded by US Secret Service agents at a campaign rally, Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania. The assassination attempt on former US president Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday has shocked the United States and the world, triggering calls from US political leaders, including President Joe Biden, to shun political violence and calm down. However, the unfortunate assassination attempt on Trump came as no surprise given the heightened tensions between the two US political parties and their incessant attacks and hate speeches against each other. While political hatred worries many Americans, the hate speeches US political leaders give on the global stage, including against countries such as China, Russia, Iran and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, deserve closer scrutiny. The hate speeches by US political leaders are pushing the world closer to a new Cold War, even a hot war.
