Again, May God Forgive Us! America’s Betrayal of China to the Communists

Price range: $2.99 through $12.95

When China fell to Mao’s brutal regime, it wasn’t by accident. Robert Welch declares it was betrayal — engineered in Washington, carried out by U.S. diplomats, and covered by political theater at home. Again, May God Forgive Us! reveals the hidden decisions, suppressed facts, and deliberate treachery that delivered a free ally into communist slavery. Both a record and a warning, Welch’s book arms citizens with the history too often denied.

Description

China’s descent into Communist rule was not inevitable — it was engineered. Robert Welch’s Again, May God Forgive Us! documents how decisions made in Washington dismantled the defenses of Free China and delivered a nation of hundreds of millions into Mao Tse-tung’s hands. The betrayal was deliberate, the evidence undeniable.

From General Joseph Stilwell’s hostility toward Chiang Kai-shek, to the infamous Marshall Mission that pressured Nationalist forces into cease-fires while Mao regrouped, American policy repeatedly crippled its own ally. Shipments of arms and ammunition were blocked or delayed, while American journalists and officials recast Communist guerrillas as “agrarian reformers.” Chiang was smeared as corrupt and reactionary, even as he fought on the front lines against both Japanese invaders and the advancing Reds.

Declassified cables, field reports, and testimony from generals reveal how State Department elites and internationalist advisers shaped a narrative that favored Mao. They strangled support for Chiang, cut off the Nationalists from vital supplies, and presented surrender as wisdom. Behind every diplomatic note and editorial campaign was the steady erosion of America’s word — until Free China was left isolated, encircled, and condemned.

The consequences were catastrophic. With Mao’s victory came mass executions, famine, forced labor, and the silencing of one of the world’s great civilizations under totalitarian rule. Tens of millions paid the price for policies crafted in Washington, policies that were cloaked in high-minded rhetoric but driven by globalist schemes and willful blindness.

For readers who want more than vague history, this book provides names, documents, and a record of culpability. It presses the point because the cost of forgetting is high: America’s betrayal of China reshaped the balance of power and still echoes in today’s struggle for freedom in Asia. (2019ed, 204pp)
