Good to know.
Directive to China (according to the video)
Turn away from the sea, and look West.
Just one city in China makes 90% of the worlds electronics ,proof:

China destroyed the U.S. electronics industry
The USA Has no electronics industry therefore the USA is not even a country anymore much less the world economic power or a country able to fight war. So free traders want more of this , to destroy what is left if any other industry in the USA.
Hyperbole much?
"Computer and electronic product manufacturing shipments totaled $339.4 billion in 2012 and accounted for 5.9 percent of total U.S. manufacturing shipments. Shipments of semiconductor and related devices, such as integrated circuits, memory chips, microprocessors, diodes, transistors, solar cells and other optoelectronic devices, totaled $72.2 billion or one-fifth of industry output that year."

And an unsubstantiated line from an article on INC.com is not exactly a reliable source for such an incredulous claim.
Muslims screwed up “Silk Road Mk I” I have a feeling the Chinese will not let that crap happen again....

Try reading that link first before you give false "stats"
She other 10% made in Japan,S. Korea, Asia .
Show me NUMBERS of how many smart phones or laptops are manufactured in the USA, not shipped , assembled but manufactured.
I've never seen a smart phone or laptop made in the USA . I do see Made in China on the back of all my electronics like my smart phone,laptop etc. . What planet are you on? show me a picture that you have with a smart phone made in the USA ok?
The USA “assembles” toyotas most of Japanese parts and China made electronics parts.
Well, lucky for us ‘cause if there’s a war with Iran - - and China and North Korea side with Iran - we won’t need access to any electronics...
If the USA manufactures so much electronics why does the USA have to import all these hundreds billions of dollars worth of electronics (most if not all from China):

Electronics
In 2017, American importers spent the most on the following 10 subcategories of electronic equipment:
Phone system devices including smartphones: US$113.1 billion (up 7.7% from 2016)
Integrated circuits/microassemblies: $33.5 billion (up 8.9%)
TV receivers/monitors/projectors: $24.6 billion (up 5.2%)
Insulated wire/cable: $20.2 billion (up 4.2%)
Electrical converters/power units: $14.2 billion (up 0.7%)
TV receiver/transmit/digital cameras: $11.9 billion (up 12.1%)
Electrical/optical circuit boards, panels: $11.3 billion (up 6.5%)
Unrecorded sound media: $11.3 billion (up 28.9%)
Lower-voltage switches, fuses: $10.9 billion (up 4.4%)
Solar power diodes/semi-conductors: $10.7 billion (down -22.8%)
Among these import subcategories, Americas purchases of unrecorded sound media (up 28.9%), TV receivers, transmitters, and digital cameras (up 12.1%) and integrated circuits or microassemblies (up 8.9%) grew at the fastest pace from 2016 to 2017.
These amounts and the percentage gains within parenthesis clearly show where the strongest demand lies for different types of imported electronics among US businesses and consumers.
Machinery
In 2017, American importers spent the most on the following 10 subcategories of machinery:
Computers, optical readers: US$84.9 billion (up 9.3% from 2016)
Turbo-jets: $23.7 billion (up 7.8%)
Computer parts, accessories: $23 billion (up 41.1%)
Printing machinery: $17 billion (down -1.7%)
Taps, valves, similar appliances: $14.9 billion (up 8.1%)
Air or vacuum pumps: $11.3 billion (up 10%)
Piston engines: $11.1 billion (up 0.4%)
Liquid pumps and elevators: $10.6 billion (up 10.6%)
Piston engine parts: $9.4 billion (up 1.6%)
Refrigerators, freezers: $9.2 billion (up 5.3%)
Among these import subcategories, Americas purchases of computer parts or accessories (up 41.1%), liquid pumps and elevators (up 10.6%) and air or vacuum pumps (up 10%) grew at the fastest pace from 2016 to 2017.
Excellent video. A wake up call, if we needed one. China is serious, confident and focused. Now that Xi has pretty much absolute power, (and lots of dollars), he’s going to go full steam ahead with his vision.
This is the start of a new Chinese dynasty.
Thanks for posting it.
