Is so 19 00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:27.840 apropos today, as if you check the local news and 20 00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:31.439 national and world news, China is in the front of 21 00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:36.040 the headlines with the China and Taiwan situation. A little 22 00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:39.640 backstory on the book, First China is Attacking, Colonel Grant 23 00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:42.719 Newsham outlines what America must do to fight back, how 24 00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:45.120 meanish China wants to replace. The United States is the 25 00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:48.480 world's leading superpower, and the looming feeling of attack is 26 00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:52.040 on the mine of Americans everywhere. In When China attacks 27 00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:55.879 a warning to America, Colonel Grant Newsham uses his military 28 00:01:55.920 --> 00:01:58.599 and China expertise to provide a well founded, blow by 29 00:01:58.640 --> 00:02:02.359 blow account of that's what China is capable of what 30 00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:05.840 our nation must do to stop the CCP. Drawing from 31 00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:09.120 intelligent experiences from his forty year career in the Marine 32 00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:12.680 Marine Corps and Sleep Department, Colonel Grant Newsham delivers a 33 00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:16.719 stark warning about America's impending war with China. Little brief 34 00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:20.000 background on our special guest. Colonel Grant Newsham, a retired 35 00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:23.560 US Marine, served in the Indo Pacific for decades, including 36 00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:27.840 an intelligence and liaison rolls, and was instrumental in establishing 37 00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:31.800 Japan's Amphibious Force. As a US Foreign Service officer, he 38 00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:34.719 covered a number of regions, including East and South Asia, 39 00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:40.960 and specialized in insurgency, counterinsurgency, and commercial matters. Colonel Newsham 40 00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:44.719 is an expert on political warfare, commercial espionage, an Asian 41 00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:48.000 organized crime, an attorney. He lived in Tokyo for more 42 00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:50.879 than twenty years working for an investment bank in the 43 00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:54.800 high tech industry. A hearty welcome to Lieutenantive to Colonel 44 00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:58.800 Grant Newsham on the Doctor Sky experience. Colonel, thank you 45 00:02:58.840 --> 00:02:59.879 for spending time with us. 46 00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:02.680 Oh, my pleasure. I appreciate the invitation. 47 00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:06.080 Thank you, sir. This book is outstanding and it goes 48 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:09.000 to the top, of course, of our bookshelf to recommend 49 00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:12.039 to what's really going on behind the news. Talk a 50 00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:14.240 little bit about this book and the necessity. I think 51 00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:16.439 it's so appropriate. I mean, just look at the news 52 00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:19.599 around the world today as we're doing this interview toward 53 00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:22.080 the mid portion of April twenty twenty three. It couldn't 54 00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:24.800 be more timely, right, sir, Oh, not at all. 55 00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:29.039 I should send a thank you note to Beijing, for example, 56 00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:32.360 for having sent that balloon over the United States. There 57 00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:34.479 must have been a lot of people who looked up 58 00:03:34.680 --> 00:03:37.039 at the Chinese spy balloon and wondered, well, what is 59 00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:40.319 going on? What's the deal with China? Well, my book 60 00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:44.199 actually explains a lot of that, talks about a war 61 00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:46.840 which China has been waging against us for at least 62 00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:49.560 three decades, to talk about how they're fighting it, what 63 00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:53.039 damage has been done, what happens if we lose, and 64 00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:56.199 I also give some ideas of how to win. But 65 00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:58.919 China very much has been attacking us on a number 66 00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.719 of fronts, as I said, for decades, and they consider 67 00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:06.759 it war. Unfortunately, the United States does not consider what 68 00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:10.439 the Chinese are doing and have been doing to the 69 00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:13.719 war works to China's advantage. It has put us in 70 00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:14.840 a difficult position. 71 00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:17.600 Now, well, colonel, you say it so well. And in 72 00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:21.199 the twenty chapters they're in this book. Once again, I 73 00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:24.759 recommend everybody within the sound of this particular particular radio 74 00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:29.079 show and podcast, the Doctor Sky Experience, that they quickly 75 00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:31.680 get a copy of this and learn so much more. 76 00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:34.480 As we're talking around here in the timeframe of mid 77 00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:38.160 April twenty twenty three, we see that maybe a standoff 78 00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:41.480 between the United States military, the United States Navy, and 79 00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:46.120 the communist Chinese forces over Taiwan if you could explain 80 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:48.560 to this audience. You go into some great detail about 81 00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:52.879 describing various phases of warfare. You describe something called entropic 82 00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:56.480 warfare and kinetic warfare. Please explain that to our audience, 83 00:04:56.519 --> 00:05:01.079 because we're getting an education today here on the sky experience. 84 00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:04.240 Well, sure, I'll be glad to you know. The one 85 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:06.800 way to look at this is, you know, to consider 86 00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:09.319 how the Americans how we tend to look at war, 87 00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:11.439 and we look at it as something like one hundred 88 00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:14.800 yard dash, where the competitors get to the start line 89 00:05:14.839 --> 00:05:16.680 and they stretch out, and then they get in their 90 00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:19.519 crouch and then somebody shoots a gun and says go. 91 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:22.920 And in the case of war, we look at it 92 00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:26.720 only once the shooting has started, and before that we 93 00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:30.120 don't look at it as war. We require actual shooting 94 00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:33.319 to have begun, and then we take it seriously. So 95 00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:35.560 the Chinese don't see it that way. They look at 96 00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:40.120 it as a continuum, as a spectrum of activities, and 97 00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:43.879 they've been doing things for decades. The economic warfare, you know, 98 00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:47.839 getting us to move so much of our manufacturing industry 99 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:52.480 and other industries into China, handing over technology, letting the 100 00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:55.360 rest of it be stolen, of course, and that has 101 00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:58.360 built up China's economy, built up to help them build 102 00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:01.399 up their military and the processes well, and it's weakened 103 00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:06.399 us to China. That is very much a battlefield biological warfare. 104 00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:09.920 You know, one can argue about exactly where COVID came from, 105 00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:13.240 but I think there's little doubt that once it was 106 00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:17.279 out from China that they at least opportunistically heeded the 107 00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:20.360 rest of the world with it, and that just brought 108 00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:22.720 the United States to a halt. And that was an 109 00:06:22.759 --> 00:06:29.000 immensely successful sort of active war by the Chinese. Another 110 00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:31.800 one chemical warfare. The Chinese will refer to the drug 111 00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:36.120 warfare talking about say that particularly the fentanyl scourge which 112 00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:40.199 killed almost seventy thousand Americans last year, and most of 113 00:06:40.199 --> 00:06:42.759 that comes from China trying to claims it just can't 114 00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:45.279 do anything about it because it can't find who's doing it. 115 00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.839 And the Americans have taken, unfortunately, have taken them at 116 00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:52.439 their word instead of recognizing that this is an incredibly 117 00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:55.879 effective attack on the United States. You think of all 118 00:06:56.079 --> 00:07:00.240 the damage that has done. So there's cyber warfare, what 119 00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:04.439 I call proxy warfare is buying off the elite in 120 00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:08.399 your enemy. The Chinese has done that very well financial warfare, 121 00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:11.519 trying to displace the US dollar a week in the 122 00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:15.000 US dollar. Not that Congress isn't helping them with that 123 00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:21.120 without a control spending. But those are battlefronts that we 124 00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:25.360 have been under attack on for a long time now. 125 00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:28.319 But as I said, this doesn't appear to the Chinese 126 00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:32.120 to be something we're responding to. To us, we don't 127 00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:35.519 think that the war has actually started. So the Chinese 128 00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:38.480 will actually look at the so called kinetic warfare, and 129 00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:40.879 that's the modern word for what really means just a 130 00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:44.439 shooting war. So they look at that as almost the 131 00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:47.279 last step. You know, if you've softened up your enemy, 132 00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:51.240 you've got him weakend, you confused him, you've caused enough harm, 133 00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:55.079 but he either cannot respond or cannot respond effectively. And 134 00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:59.279 that is a very different way of looking at warfare 135 00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:02.480 compared to ours. And I use the expression you've mentioned 136 00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:06.199 it entropic warfare, And what that really means is you 137 00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:09.519 get your enemy in such a state of confusion that 138 00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:12.839 he is destroying himself and he is not able to 139 00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:15.639 resist your domination. 140 00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:17.879 Right, and you don't even have to fire a shot. 141 00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.959 I mean, it's so amazing. It's like a cancer that spreads, 142 00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:23.120 and you say it so well. Here, I just want 143 00:08:23.160 --> 00:08:25.439 to remind our listeners you're not listening to the Doctor 144 00:08:25.480 --> 00:08:28.639 Sky experience. Here. Our producer is Richard Dugan on the 145 00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:31.879 Great Talk Radio seventy seven WABC out of New York. 146 00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:34.919 We call it the Crown Jewel of Radio. Our special 147 00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:37.879 guest is Colonel Grant Nusham. And this book, Ladies and Gentlemen, 148 00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:39.879 really knocks it out of the park as far as 149 00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:42.679 what's really happening with China what we need to know. 150 00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:46.519 The book when China attacks a warning to America. Sadly, 151 00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:49.320 sir Colonel, you describe something that's been going on for 152 00:08:49.440 --> 00:08:53.000 such a long time. You make the analogy of Baltimore, Maryland, 153 00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:55.519 and what it was once and what it is now. 154 00:08:55.679 --> 00:08:57.639 Tell the listeners a little bit more about how this 155 00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:00.759 is all connected to the master plan that the Chinese 156 00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:03.679 Communist Party is now evolving in front of our eyes. 157 00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:07.320 Yes, I used Baltimore as an example, but it could 158 00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:10.320 have been a number of other American cities that once 159 00:09:10.360 --> 00:09:17.720 we're thriving societies, thriving neighborhoods, and now there are war 160 00:09:17.799 --> 00:09:21.080 zones at best actually gives war zone would actually be better 161 00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:24.399 in some respects. But what this is the result is 162 00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:28.320 there's a few things at work. One is i would 163 00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:33.000 say very successful Chinese economic warfare, and that was convincing 164 00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:37.519 America's financial class, it's business class, and too many of 165 00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:41.600 the political class, that China had to be allowed into 166 00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:45.360 the World Trade Organization despite meeting none of the requirement. 167 00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:48.679 There was a promise of sorts that they would eventually, 168 00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:52.279 but after twenty plus years they haven't met them at all. 169 00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:56.759 But that really allowed it gave the excuse for so 170 00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:00.759 much of American industry to move into China. Just gutted 171 00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:05.840 American societies. And when you take the jobs away, these decent, 172 00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:09.720 well paying jobs that generations had managed to live on 173 00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:12.919 and done very nicely, take that away, and then you've 174 00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:17.320 opened it up for chemical warfare, the drug war absolutely 175 00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:21.600 susceptible to it just happens to be fentanyl. Now it'll 176 00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:25.200 probably turn into something else before too long. You have 177 00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:31.279 actually also you have created a dependency, a constituency in 178 00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:36.279 the United States that thinks that it absolutely has to 179 00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:39.039 be doing business with China. It cannot do anything to 180 00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:44.759 upset that relationship, and that is effective psychological warfare. So 181 00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:47.320 you can see how these tie in with each other, 182 00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:49.960 and you see the effect that it has had on 183 00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:53.039 our military where so many people are either unable to 184 00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:57.120 join because they don't meet the standards they've got the 185 00:10:57.200 --> 00:11:01.120 drug history, or when seventy and people, many of them 186 00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:04.320 young people, are dying every year from fentanyl. Well that's 187 00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:07.519 taking a couple divisions off the battlefield. So you can say, 188 00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:09.720 as I said, you can see how these different types 189 00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:13.360 of warfare all tie into each other and they can 190 00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:14.840 be mutually reinforce it. 191 00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:17.080 And you make a good point, sir, in your book, 192 00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:18.960 and I wanted not to steal from the chapter, but 193 00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:20.600 of course people should get a copy of it and 194 00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:23.559 read it from cover to cover, all four hundred pages. 195 00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:26.399 But you describe this, and I believe it's very accurate. 196 00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:29.879 Only twenty three percent of those that would mean necessarily 197 00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:33.320 be inducted into the military can actually pass not only 198 00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:36.320 the litmus test from criminal backgrounds, but drug abuse and 199 00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:39.720 mental issues. That's a very sad state of affairs today 200 00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:42.600 when we once had a draft in this country. Nobody 201 00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:45.600 wants war. But am I at least accurate in quoting 202 00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:46.879 what you say in the book about that. 203 00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:51.840 Yes, it's probably even worse than worse than I stated, 204 00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:54.919 But it's just amazing that a country of three hundred 205 00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:59.200 and thirty million people cannot meet the sort of recruitment target. 206 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:03.519 And there's an aspect of that that it goes beyond 207 00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:07.720 just the physical part, but also there's a sense that 208 00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:11.879 the America is not the country worth defending, that America 209 00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:14.759 is not a good country, and that is a form 210 00:12:14.759 --> 00:12:18.720 of education warfare. If you can get into the schools 211 00:12:19.519 --> 00:12:22.159 and get that point across and from a young age, 212 00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:25.240 that that has an effect on recruitment as well. 213 00:12:25.879 --> 00:12:28.159 Colonel bellows to talk about in the short time that 214 00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:30.480 we have here, But I'd like you to define the 215 00:12:30.559 --> 00:12:33.440 meaning of the Chinese word tien shah as you put 216 00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:36.440 in the book. As we know, the translation means all 217 00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:40.120 under heaven. But is that accurate in my statement of saying, 218 00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:42.159 if I put it this way, that that's their global 219 00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:46.120 domination concept, that what all of China is all under 220 00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:49.360 heaven and that's the whole policy that they believe theirs 221 00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:51.759 is theirs and they should go out and grab it right. 222 00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:55.320 It very much is one way to look at it. 223 00:12:55.360 --> 00:12:58.159 Is you think of how we used to always assume 224 00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:01.120 that you know, America's number one, that our system is 225 00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:04.840 the best one, and it's what most of the world, 226 00:13:04.840 --> 00:13:08.799 the world should be run under. Is just a given, 227 00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:13.480 something you eternalize. And for the communist Chinese it's similar, 228 00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:19.759 but they've also used it, I say, for less altruistic purposes. 229 00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:25.679 The idea is domination, complete domination, not any sort of 230 00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:30.279 a mutually beneficial coexistence. But the idea is to dominate 231 00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:34.919 every other country. And it doesn't necessarily mean physically occupy 232 00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:37.240 them or to peep them at war, but to dominate. 233 00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:40.240 And that is what they've set out to do, and 234 00:13:40.320 --> 00:13:42.799 it's and I must say that they've had some success 235 00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:47.759 at it. If you look at Latin America Africa, for example, 236 00:13:47.840 --> 00:13:51.679 the commercial inroads they have made with political influence, often 237 00:13:51.759 --> 00:13:55.320 greased with bribes and under table, under the table payments 238 00:13:55.679 --> 00:13:59.720 doesn't get the attention it should, but they are well 239 00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:03.720 on their way to establishing a global presence and ultimately 240 00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:07.200 surrounding us. When you actually look at where the Chinese 241 00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:10.519 have made their inroad, it does indeed look like they 242 00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:13.639 have global domination in mind. They have in effect said 243 00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:16.080 as much all you have to do is read what 244 00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:20.480 Siji Ping has said, and even his predecessors they weren't 245 00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:24.279 exactly nice guys either, But just look at what Ashiji 246 00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:27.639 Ping is on record as having said, and the idea 247 00:14:27.720 --> 00:14:32.159 of Chinese global domination. It may have seemed preposterous twenty 248 00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:35.679 years ago, but it really should be taken very seriously. 249 00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:39.320 The Chinese telegraph their punches and we should know what's coming. 250 00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:42.519 Well, Colonel, this is fascinating here on the Doctor Sky 251 00:14:42.639 --> 00:14:46.200 experience today. So many questions to ask in so limited time, 252 00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:49.000 at least in this interview, and I always recommend, if 253 00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:51.480 it's okay by our guest, to come back at a 254 00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:54.360 future time too to talk more in the details of 255 00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:57.519 what's happening in the world, particularly with the China and 256 00:14:57.519 --> 00:15:00.799 the Communist Chinese Party. But their goal for world domination 257 00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:03.600 is sir, and the word Tien Shah, as we talked 258 00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:06.919 about and translated I believe to all under heaven. Is 259 00:15:06.960 --> 00:15:09.320 it possible because they are one of the most populated 260 00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:12.600 nations on the earth that the German concept of something 261 00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:16.320 called leiben Schrom which means living space also kind of 262 00:15:16.360 --> 00:15:19.279 counters into this or plays a part of this. Simply 263 00:15:19.320 --> 00:15:21.639 what they have so many people in such a small area. 264 00:15:21.679 --> 00:15:23.799 Wouldn't it make sense that they want this not only 265 00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:27.440 for the economic the military side of the equation, the 266 00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:30.240 power that they could possess, but they want more places 267 00:15:30.240 --> 00:15:32.279 for their people to live. Is that a simple way 268 00:15:32.279 --> 00:15:35.080 of looking at that concept of leibenschrom for them. 269 00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:41.360 Yes, I would note Australia, it's been said, and there's 270 00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:44.799 been cases where Chinese officials have noted that, well, there's 271 00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:48.080 a lot of space in Australia, there's not many people. 272 00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:51.200 It would go very nicely for China. There is very 273 00:15:51.279 --> 00:15:54.519 much an aspect of that there is a surplus population 274 00:15:54.759 --> 00:15:58.879 for now that they like to keep busy for obvious reasons. 275 00:15:59.080 --> 00:16:03.600 And well, with that word leavinsam as a very negative 276 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:08.919 connotation because of it being coined by Adolf Hitler. Unfortunately 277 00:16:09.039 --> 00:16:10.240 it does still apply here. 278 00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:13.399 It's a very interesting story. You know, there was a 279 00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:16.639 secret speech I guess not so secret now, and I 280 00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:18.759 hope I pronounce it right by a general Chi Ho 281 00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:22.440 Chion back in two thousand and five. And I encourage people, 282 00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:24.919 I'm sure, sir, you're a wealth of knowledge on this 283 00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:28.440 particular speech, which basically goes into the story I guess 284 00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:30.879 they didn't want it to pop out, but the Epoch Times, 285 00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:33.279 I think, got a copy of this. It talks about 286 00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:35.840 how they want to do this plan for world global 287 00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:38.840 domination and how they would treat those that are not 288 00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:42.759 necessarily on their side, just like what Mao did to 289 00:16:42.879 --> 00:16:45.039 so many of the people. Are you very familiar with 290 00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:47.279 that speech and if you would comment on it. It 291 00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:51.600 simply describes a plan for more details on global domination 292 00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:53.120 by the Chinese Communist Party. 293 00:16:54.200 --> 00:16:58.480 Yeah, it's it makes your blood run cold when you 294 00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:02.480 read these things, not least because they're still doing you know, 295 00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:07.680 the plans are still there. It really can't be just excused. 296 00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:12.400 It's just one extremist talking and that system. Extremists don't 297 00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:15.759 last very long if they don't have government approval. It's 298 00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.680 known that there is a list being made of, for example, 299 00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:22.839 Taiwanese who are considered not friendly enough to China or 300 00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:27.400 have supposedly advocated independence, and it's a kill liss for 301 00:17:27.440 --> 00:17:30.119 when the time comes, and it's not as if Taiwan 302 00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:33.079 is the only place such a thing exists. Tenders do 303 00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:36.599 keep the Communists do keep a very good track of 304 00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:39.160 who their friends are and who their friends are not. 305 00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:43.599 But these sorts of statements that get leaked out every 306 00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:46.640 once in a while, and even ones that get written 307 00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:49.799 in China, they get published, but they're in Chinese, so 308 00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:52.960 Americans tend not to and foreigners tend not to notice them. 309 00:17:54.039 --> 00:17:58.039 That these sorts of things give us a very clear 310 00:17:58.079 --> 00:18:02.039 sense of what is coming if we do come under 311 00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:07.359 Chinese domination, and that's really something we have not experienced 312 00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:09.480 far and awfully a long time. I think there's a 313 00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:12.680 few people alive today who can quite conceive of the 314 00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:16.319 threat that the Chinese Communist Party poses to us. 315 00:18:16.839 --> 00:18:20.039 Colonel I guess I'm being simplistic when I asked this question. 316 00:18:20.119 --> 00:18:21.599 I mean I would have an answer, and I'm not 317 00:18:21.640 --> 00:18:24.440 a military person. I served the United States Army, but 318 00:18:24.519 --> 00:18:26.079 not at the level that you did, sir, and I 319 00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:29.279 salute you for your service and all others. My gvice. 320 00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:32.599 A concern is this when you look at China and 321 00:18:32.640 --> 00:18:35.720 you look at what their military was, and you now 322 00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:37.400 see and I'm going to ask you, in a little 323 00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:40.000 more into depth of this interview to talk about their 324 00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:43.200 current strength. Let's talk a little bit about that military, 325 00:18:43.640 --> 00:18:45.799 and let's talk a little bit about why in this 326 00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:48.440 country I guess the most simplistic question you've probably gotten 327 00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:51.559 from all these different interviews, many of which I'm sure 328 00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:55.039 are very very positive on this subject, why in the hell, 329 00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:57.680 and I say it so simply, is this government not 330 00:18:57.720 --> 00:19:01.079 paying attention to this. It's almost like reliction of duty, 331 00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:04.279 or if I even go to an extreme term, treason. 332 00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:07.960 What the heck is going on here that to me, 333 00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:09.839 even I think a seven year old would think that 334 00:19:09.920 --> 00:19:12.000 this is insane not to stop it or do something 335 00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:12.480 about it. 336 00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:17.559 Well, it is even it's even worse that we have 337 00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:22.400 effectively funded the growth of the Chinese military. The Chinese 338 00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:25.920 currency is not freely convertible, which means that nobody outside 339 00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:28.960 China much wants it. So if the Chinese want to 340 00:19:28.960 --> 00:19:32.240 buy stay Australian iron ores to make steal to build 341 00:19:32.519 --> 00:19:35.400 navy ships, have to pay for it in something like dollars. 342 00:19:35.799 --> 00:19:38.039 Wall Street and the business class have made sure that 343 00:19:38.119 --> 00:19:40.920 they have had all the money they need to pay 344 00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:44.880 for this. So that is one aspect of this infanity 345 00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:48.400 that has gotten us into this fix. I think you 346 00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:53.400 find that excessive administration until the Trump administration, all thought 347 00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:56.920 that China could be made nicer with just a little 348 00:19:56.960 --> 00:20:02.400 more accommodation and ignoring the their aggressive their aggressive behavior, 349 00:20:04.599 --> 00:20:07.400 you're just crazy. And I think the lots that does 350 00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:10.200 track down to come back to money, that when you 351 00:20:10.279 --> 00:20:15.599 can get the influential financial business classes, the donor classes 352 00:20:15.599 --> 00:20:18.920 that have political influence, get them to think that they 353 00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:21.640 are making a ton of money in China or wills 354 00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:26.240 one day that you have effectively handcuffed your main enemy. 355 00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:28.680 And that's what the Chinese referred to us as is 356 00:20:28.880 --> 00:20:33.240 the main enemy. And the military, the US military was 357 00:20:33.279 --> 00:20:36.039 not immune to this at all. Too many of the 358 00:20:36.079 --> 00:20:38.880 senior leaders saw that the way to get ahead was 359 00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:43.920 to mirror that thinking that they saw in the business class, 360 00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:47.400 they thought in administrations, they thought in the White House, 361 00:20:48.119 --> 00:20:51.440 and just insists that China was not a threat. In 362 00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:55.039 around two thousand and ninety nine, for example, then the 363 00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:58.240 head of a commander of Pacific commands of all US 364 00:20:58.279 --> 00:21:01.400 forces in the Pacific, he was visiting China and he 365 00:21:01.480 --> 00:21:05.200 was asked about the possibility of Chinese aircraft carriers and 366 00:21:05.279 --> 00:21:08.200 he said he saw nothing wrong with that and would 367 00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:10.720 be glad to help China developed them to as much 368 00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:13.759 as he could. And that was the thinking. So really 369 00:21:13.839 --> 00:21:17.519 until about twenty seventeen, even the US military in it, 370 00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:20.400 you could not say that China was even an adversary 371 00:21:20.839 --> 00:21:23.839 or you would be in trouble. So the entire nation 372 00:21:24.279 --> 00:21:27.799 or the parts of it that have too much influence 373 00:21:28.200 --> 00:21:31.400 kind of went insane. And really, we built up this 374 00:21:31.559 --> 00:21:33.960 enemy that would cause us no end of trouble if 375 00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:36.519 they'd choose their spots in the time of attack. 376 00:21:36.400 --> 00:21:39.960 Right, amazing, Colonel, About a decade ago, or maybe even 377 00:21:39.960 --> 00:21:42.480 a generation ago, which I think we talk about twenty 378 00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:46.079 five years, the Chinese Communist Party and the military, their 379 00:21:46.079 --> 00:21:49.119 military did not have from reading in your book, I 380 00:21:49.160 --> 00:21:52.519 wanted you to corroborate and expand the ability to project 381 00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:55.680 their power beyond let's say their own nation state, and 382 00:21:55.759 --> 00:21:59.920 obviously the Taiwan situation only ninety miles away, there's obviously 383 00:21:59.920 --> 00:22:02.880 a whole change of foot here with China today. So 384 00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:06.599 describe them then and what is their capability right now? 385 00:22:06.720 --> 00:22:08.279 Is we want to talk a little bit more before 386 00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:11.440 I get to the ultimate stuff about what could happen here. 387 00:22:11.519 --> 00:22:15.119 Very sadly, as the Communist Chinese military and the Communist 388 00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:18.640 Chinese Party tries to take back to ii Wan, describe that, well, 389 00:22:18.680 --> 00:22:19.079 I think. 390 00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:22.680 They really have the ability to throw their weight around 391 00:22:23.880 --> 00:22:28.640 big time, to use the technical word, close to China. 392 00:22:28.720 --> 00:22:33.119 But once they get too far beyond China's sort of 393 00:22:33.200 --> 00:22:36.559 near maritime boundaries or get too far away from China, 394 00:22:36.599 --> 00:22:40.440 that ability drops off pretty quickly. So China would have 395 00:22:40.440 --> 00:22:44.079 a very hard time defending says sea lanes of communication 396 00:22:44.240 --> 00:22:47.920 of the transport. And it does depend on food imports, 397 00:22:48.119 --> 00:22:50.680 energy imports to take care of its need. That doesn't 398 00:22:50.680 --> 00:22:54.000 produce anywhere near what it needs, so it is vulnerable 399 00:22:54.559 --> 00:22:57.599 if a fight is if you expand the battlefield. But 400 00:22:57.640 --> 00:23:01.119 if it's a fight close to China, certainly Taiwan is 401 00:23:01.160 --> 00:23:05.079
