"China. They’ve been moving towards this capability for years."

Agreed. I met the head of Information Assurance for the Air Force and he told me the following stark fact. Surprisingly, it was unclassified.

"To all of my fellow officers, in all other service branches and even the Air Force, our enemy is radical Islam. They fight the War on Terror."

"As for me, I stand alone. I have a single enemy. It is China. We have thousands of attempted network penetrations originating in China each day."

"We will win the War on Terror. But our real enemy is China."

Chilling thought. I hope we are sending back just what they are dishing out, in spades.

My fear is that we are woefully unprepared for Chinese cyber attacks. The Chinese see it as an indispensible part of asymmetrical warfare strategy, and I'm beginning to think that this is one area where they are years ahead of us.

However, I still hang on to one shred of hope: the utter cloak of silence around US network warfare may mean that they are treating it as the modern-day Manhattan Project.

My theory (in case you’re interested, lol)...

The Jihadists are simply the “military branch” of the real war we are fighting here. Add Russia to China, and then you’re starting to get a clearer picture I believe. We are in a World War against the Communists & their Muslim allies, it’s all a matter of reading between the lines at this point though. Very few people - and most definitely not the media - speak to the real dangers, and real problems our country is facing right now. It’s a real shame because if people knew the truth I highly doubt they would’ve elected a Freshman Senator to deal with these problems no matter how much they “hated” Bush.
