On the question of China’s “authentic aspirations,” which Americans need to understand, looms the national security issue. Freeman told his audience, “No one still dismisses the PLA as a ‘junkyard army.’

Gee, I guess Freeman hasn't seen some of the posts here where there are always a few who still do....

China's recent anti-satellite test, growing participation in UN peacekeeping missions, and near tripling of defense spending since 2000 mark its emergence as a considerable military power.”

That's only what they have admitted to, Freeman.

Yet, we should not react to this. Indeed, he urged the CNA, whose job it is to worry about such things, to reject “our apparent nostalgia for the aggressive expansionism of our now inconveniently vanished Soviet rivals” and to avoid “writing narrowly focused and highly tendentious reports mandated by Congress to justify the single-issue agendas of our military-industrial complex or, for that matter, our humanitarian-industrial complex.

This China apologist has a little bit of trouble with the Law. And he gets his knickers in a twist when rejected by those people who are concerned for AMERICAN national security...and true liberty for the oppressed around the globe...and so he attempts to misrepresent and demean them when he calls them "Complexes".

H'mmmmm. Dwight Eisenhower he isn't. Seems to me that the guy has a "complex" of his own...

There’s a difference between dismissing the PLA as a junkyard army and dismissing the idea that it is — or will be for decades — even a remote peer of the United States. For some reason there are always a few who can’t accept that difference.

NEVER FORGET

.

Then CLINTON National Security Advisor SANDY BERGER, after he had already been Chief Washington D.C. Lobbyist for the Communist Chinese,

...went on NBC’s ‘Meet the Press’ to “guarantee” the American People that there was “no way” the Communist Chinese could get our precious Missile and Space Satellite technology while launching U.S. Space Satellites from inside Communist China.

Which they, of course, prompty did.

For,
...the Enemy is now Within...
...and always has been.

And is planning to once again occupy our Oval Office for America’s last time.

.

NEVER FORGET
