“U.S. Military Vulnerable to China’s War Systems”
The U.S. military is vulnerable to China’s advanced war-fighting systems, including space weapons and computer attacks that would be used in a future conflict over Taiwan, according to a congressional commission’s report released yesterday.The full report of the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission also provides more details than the summary released last week, showing that China is engaged in a “large-scale industrial espionage campaign” with “scores” of cases involving spies seeking U.S. technology.
The full report presents a harsh assessment of China’s military buildup and plans for a war against the U.S. if Beijing decided to use force against the island nation of Taiwan. (By Bill Gertz. The Washington Times

CHINA IS ALSO LIGHT YEARS AHEAD OF MOST EVERYBODY IN CYBER WARFARE CAPABILTY. I WONDER IF THE LIFTING OF THE RESTRICTION OF THE SELLING OF SECRET SUPER COMPUTERS BY THE CLINTON ADMIN HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THAT????? (READ BOOK RED DRAGON RISING. WRITTEN BY EDWARD TIMPERLAKE? WHOM WAS AN ADVISOR TO BUSH 1 AND SERVED IN THE REAGAN ADMIN. HE ALSO HAS A LONG CAREER IN C.I.A. AND N.S.A.) I WAS IN THE PHILLIPINES IN 95 WHEN A STATE OF EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED AFTER THE CHINESE NAVY AND MARINE CORPS LANDED AMPHIB SHIPS IN THE SPRATLY ISLANDS. BY THE TIME THE PHILLIPINOS RESPONDED THERE WAS A AIRSTRIP BUILT AND UP TO 5000 TROOPS ON THE ISLAND. MIND YOU THE SPRATLYS ARE DISPUTED TERRITORY, BUT THE PHILLIPINES IS IN VERY CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THESE ISLANDS.THE CHINESE FLEXED THEIR MUSCLES BECAUSE THE SPRATLYS HAVE LONG BEEN RUMORED TO BE OIL RICH. THE LANDING AND OCCUPATION WAS INTENDED TO INTIMIDATE THE PHILLIPINES INTO SUBMISSION ALSO. "WISE MAN SAY WHEN DRAGON WHISPER, PAY ATTENTION". THE DRAGON HAS NOT YET ROARED, BUT IT,S COMING.

Must remember that it was Richard Nixon (R) who opened China to the West. Also, much like other saber rattling, predictions of war with China are only predictions without any real basis. Finally, the prediction itself contends that when war does come, China will win (or at least when China thinks that it will win). The World cannot afford a war between the U.S. and China.

I BELIEVE WAR WITH CHINA IS COMING. RIGHT NOW THE DRAGON IS CONTENT. HE IS UNDERGOING AN ECONOMIC BOOM THAT IS UNSURPASSED IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND. THIS ECONOMIC BOOM WHICH IS FEEDING AND ALLOWING THE DRAGON TO GROW BIG AND STRONG IS COURTESY OF US IN THE WESTERN WORLD.SOON THE DRAGON WILL BECOME BELLIGERENT AND WHEN HE DOES IT WILL BE AT HIS CHOOSING. IT WILL BE WHEN HE KNOWS HE WILL WIN.

Why do I get that feeling that China is just waiting for that perfect chance to take us out! We'd better never give it to them!
