The Significance of China's ‘Unrestricted Warfare’ on U.S. Ally India
American Thinker ^ | 1 Jul, 2021 | Janet Levy

China’s conflict with India goes beyond what’s apparent on the surface: it’s part of the Communist nation’s attempt to wrest power from, and destabilize, the United States.

In 1999, two Chinese officers explored potential strategies that militarily inferior nations might use against a superpower like the U.S. In their book Unrestricted Warfare: China’s Master Plan to Destroy America, they expounded on alternatives to direct military confrontation -- often defined as “gray-zone” or indirect war, and including tactics such as assaults on economic and financial systems, gaining control of infrastructure, disrupting networks, cyberattacks, political propaganda, and replacement of populations. Of course, China has employed this strategy, reminiscent of Sun-Tzu’s conviction that wars should be won without firing a single shot, against other adversaries. But nowhere is this more evident than in its actions against U.S. ally India.

Since the advent of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in 1949, the newly independent India, under prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru, was viewed by the American leadership as “potentially a great counterweight to China” in the region. But it was more than 70 years before a strong alliance was forged between the two countries by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Donald Trump, during the latter’s visit to India in 2020. Simultaneously, the revival of the Quad alliance -- India, U.S., Japan and Australia -- solidified the relationship as a bulwark against China’s growing dominance in the region. During his India visit, President Trump remarked approvingly on the difference “between a nation that seeks power through coercion” and one that “rises by setting its people free… and that is India.” Therefore, China’s attempts to weaken India militarily and economically will certainly diminish our regional ally’s value as a counterweight.

Several events of the past two years highlight China’s insidious war of sabotage against India, t

China is also fanning “Maoist” communist revolutions in and around India, including in Nepal where China funded a road over a Himalaya mountain pass from occupied Tibet. This highway called “The Friendship Highway” is a road the Chinese can use to traverse the Himalayan mountain range and Attack India from the east side.

I trust China. It’s not like they murdered 75 million of their own people...

some people would view China’s actions as a warning to India to kneel, but others might view it as outright acts of war. It’s time to shun China - the more they get away with, the more they will push.

China has been in direct conflict with China for several years and the conflict is escalating

The Wuhan virus is now exposed as a product of “gain of function” bio engineering. Gain of function is bio warfare development by another name and the Wuhan Level 4 facility was collaborating with Chinese military and it's sister Level 3 facility a few miles away where the primate testing for human modeling is actually run by the military.

Until recently, India has been one of the countries least impacted by the Wuhan virus.

Suddenly, out of the blue, a new “Delta” virus seemingly particularly suited to infecting Indians pops up in India

Recently, documents have leaked that prove China has actively been working on bio engineering infectious pathogens, especially corona virus, to selectively target racial, gender, and age group demographic cohorts.

Let your imagination run wild on that one.

China, bad. OK, we can all agree. India, ally. Wait, not so fast.

“Ally” in the modern sense usually means treaty alliances, doesn’t it? It implies them, at least. Has the US ever had a defense treaty with India?

“I never knew India was our ally.”

Indeed. India has long had a philosophy of non-alignment and have never joined any alliance blocks.

The flaw in China’s strategy is the more they push on India the more likely a true USA-India alliance will form.
