"McCarthyism is the practice in the United States of making accusations of subversion or treason without proper regard for evidence........ During the McCarthy era, hundreds of Americans were accused of being communists or communist sympathizers; they became the subject of aggressive investigations and questioning before government or private industry panels, committees and agencies........ Suspicions were often given credence despite inconclusive or questionable evidence, and the level of threat posed by a person's real or supposed leftist associations or beliefs was sometimes exaggerated."

Subversion or treason is another way of saying national security. Meng Wanzhou, the heir-apparent of Huawei, was arrested in transit and detained without explicit charges........ Zhang Shoucheng, a member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Thousand Talents Program, was ever since investigated under 301........ Both met misfortune on the same day when Xi met Trump........ Another 2 days later, ASML, the leading overseas provider of cutting-edge lithography equipments, announced delivery delays in early 2019, because of a fire........

I am reporting the incidents as they were and noticing the parallels to McCarthyism.

There are more happening behind the scene. On the same day that Meng Wanzhou was arrested, "Zhang Shoucheng, a Chinese-American physicist at Stanford University, died at the age of 55 "after fighting a battle with depression,"". The official police record is a suicide.

Zhang's team verified the existence of the Majorana fermion in 2017, practically waiting in line for a Nobel Prize in Physics. He is near the peak of his career, how would any "depression" have taken over?

The Majorana fermion is a leading candidate to become a major component of a quantum computer. And his venture-capital firm is also investigated under 301.

So the question becomes, is it suicide under depression or suicide under coercion?

And then 2 days later, ASML announced that deliveries of chip equipments will be delayed in early 2019, which also means orders to China, because of fire at a supplier.

It is looking more and more like McCarthyism........

Looks like Ms. Meng may face up to 30 years of jail in the US.
Bail looks increasingly unlikely as well, since the US/Canada wants to make this an example.

This really looks bad.
