There is something paranoic about observing that China is building its defenses, and concluding that China is going to “attack us.” This is the latest cry you hear emanating from the echo chamber of America’s warmongers.
These
are the characters whose job is to work on hypnotizing the duly elected fifth
columnists of the Congress who would be out looking for the highest bidders to
their congressional services, instead of spending their time governing the
country for the benefit of those who elected them.
You
can see how these traitors are Svengalied into succumbing to the hypnotic
suggestion of the echo chamber’s lobbyists by reading an article that came
under the title: “China is going to attack U.S. and its allies soon,” and the
subtitle: “Gen. Mark Milley is naïve in this threat assumptions.” The article
was written by Brandon J. Weichert, and published on July 21, 2021 in The
Washington Times.
Despite
the fact that Brandon Weichert admits to the following: “If a war between China
and the United States ever erupted, it would be fought mainly at sea, in waters
closer to China than the United States,” which means that if anyone has the
intention to provoke a war, it would be the United States — he goes on to
describe China as the one that’s preparing to attack America and its allies.
Given
that Brandon Weichert could not avoid being contradictory while making his
presentation, he compensated for the resulting loss of credibility by resorting
to the hypnotic techniques that proved to work on the feeble-minded members of
Congress who ultimately decide on funding the military buildup that lobbyists are
advocating. Here is how Weichert started to make his pitch to that end:
“China’s
navy has been engaged in a shipbuilding spree, specifically of their
submarines, aircraft carriers, amphibious assault ships, so much so that one
Chinese official described it as akin to ‘dropping dumplings in water’” … In
the United States, however, the US Navy’s shipbuilding has remained stagnant”.
Having
dismayed the audience by making a preliminary gloomy pitch, the writer went on
to bludgeon the audience, then quickly made his recommendation. Here is how he
did that:
“America’s
aircraft carriers are expensive to build and maintain. They are also
susceptible to weapons systems of the kind that China has peppered
the regions nearest their shores with. China fields weapons and tracking
systems that could allow them to sink American aircraft carriers before they
could get near enough to China’s shores to be a real threat. The cost and
time it takes to build these leviathans of war means that putting them at risk
is a dangerous proposition. If lost in battle before they can attack the enemy,
their loss will create a gap at a critical time for the US Navy. The submarine
will be the primary weapon for the Americans in the Indo-Pacific. Yet, the
United States has not invested in building more submarines. And the current
fleet of subs is insufficient for China’s challenge”.
Knowing
that the audience will ask how come no one has seen this reality, and done
something about it before it was too late, and America lost the war to China without
firing a single bullet, the author gave an explanation that should be even more
terrifying to an American audience than seeing the uncertain state of the
American navy. Here, in condensed form is how Brandon Weichert did that:
“Rather
than address this glaring vulnerability, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff, Mark Milley told the House Armed Services Committee
that China would not have the capability to invade Taiwan before
2027. More dangerously, Gen. Milley asserted that a Chinese attack on Taiwan in
the next 18 to 24 months would be technically complex. Given how
far China has come in such a short time, one has to wonder what Gen.
Milley and the Pentagon are thinking with this assessment?”
To
make certain that these ideas will stick in the minds of the audience, Brandon
Weichert thought it prudent to cite a historical example that will buttress his
argument. Here is what he did:
“Few
in Washington believed Japan could mount a serious challenge to the United
States Armed Forces. No one believed Pearl Harbor was at risk because launching
such an attack on Hawaii was too complex for the Japanese. On December 7, 1941,
the Japanese Empire proved all the naysayers wrong”.
If
this thing begins to sound unreal to you, it’s because it is. So, you expect
Weichert to shed some light on what’s behind it all, and he does. You now see
it clearly; this thing is political from head to toe, and here is its true
color:
“Gen.
Milley should put his Critical Race Theory [CRT] books down. Just because China
was an agrarian backwater does not mean it is that today. China has
rapidly evolved into a highly innovative, potent, and dynamic force that seeks
to challenge America’s status as the world’s dominant power. President Xi
Jinping told his people that he would bash America’s skull against the Great
Wall”.
It is
“At
a time when China is throwing vast sums of money at enabling their
forces to challenge the US military, the American defense budget remains flat. The
money that’s there is misallocated into systems, like the aircraft carrier that
may not be effective. Biden and his military leaders have yet to show they
fully understand China’s threat. With its growing power and wealth,
China is more likely to strike against the US and its allies sooner than
2027”.
By now, the feeble-minded members of Congress who ultimately decide on funding the military buildup and other things, will be hypnotized into a deep somnambulist state. They will have no power of thinking and no free will, but they’ll act like a puppet that’s pulled by the strings of the puppeteer.
