A redirect existed first, which is know contained here: Hun speech. It was moved according to my request. WatkynBassett ( talk) 15:37, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
The article currently states that "The "Yellow Peril" had long been a delusional fear of the Emperor". I don't have access to the cited source (Röhl), but is it actually saying that Wilhelm II had mental delusions? If not, a term like this isn't NPOV.

WatkynBassett ( talk) 15:59, 9 October 2022 (UTC)The ‘Yellow Peril’ had long been a cause of anxiety to the Kaiser and was the inspiration for his notorious sketch of 1895, ‘Nations of Europe, protect your holiest possessions!’ As a result of the annexation of Kiaochow in November 1897 Germany had entered into competition with Russia and Britain, Japan and America over the future of the vast, dilapidated Chinese Empire, a matter in which Wilhelm II naturally took a serious interest. But the Boxer Rebellion brought out in the Kaiser a bloodthirsty aggressiveness so extreme that it gave many observers the impression of a pathological state.
— Röhl p 74
Es dauerte nicht lange bis Majestät erschien. Er hielt eine zündende Ansprach an uns, von der ich mir aber nur die folgenden Worte gemerkt habe: "Gefangene werden nicht gemacht, Pardon wird keinem Chinesen gegeben, der Euch in die Hände fällt."
By "chance" i got hands on this book and had read through it. It's not imagible why the other academic sources - who refers to Haslindes diary release and thus alledgly had read through it - aren't competent enough to detect the amalgination of dubious statments and missing verifying statements in Haslindes diary? Mayby incompetence? Mayby other factors? KR 95.112.76.92 ( talk) 03:06, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
