A Chinese Intelligence Operation in America’s Great Plains? Yes, In North Dakota a CCP Intelligence Gathering Facility is Being Constructed
American Thinker ^ | 07/22/2022 | Janet Levy

The meaning of weiqi, the ancient Chinese game of strategy, is ‘encirclement game.’ But in weiqi it isn’t enough to surround enemy stones to capture ground. It’s vital to have some of your stones within enemy territory. When you then lay siege, swathes of the board fall with no fighting. China’s leaders, strategists, and generals swear by Sun Tzu and weiqi: they combine the lessons of the philosopher’s Art of War with principles of the game to win without fighting, deploying long-term plans and deception, skirmishing on many fronts, and creating outposts hidden in plain sight.

One such outpost, an agro-industrial plant of China’s Fufeng group, is in development stages on American soil – in Grand Forks, North Dakota, to be precise. It’s 13 miles from the Grand Forks Air Force Base (GFAFB) and 85 miles from the Cavalier Space Force Station. This is the Great Plains region, so uninterrupted lines of sight make visual and electronic surveillance of the base and station uncomplicated. Given China’s ambition to dominate the world and its ingrained culture of war by deception, it would be naïve to think the plant won’t be used for espionage.

The patriots of Grand Forks, against tremendous resistance from the administration, are campaigning for a referendum against the plant. Some of them have faced intimidating visits from the FBI and police. Hopefully, the rest of America will wake up to their clarion call and thwart this Chinese intelligence bastion disguised as a corn mill. But the question is, how was the Fufeng plant able to avoid closer scrutiny? And why are the authorities bearing down on those opposing what should never have been allowed in the first place?

For decades, China has been growing its front of influence in the U.S., as in other countries, by working at the local level

Americans are soft and not interested. The left, in particular, is more interested in fighting conservatives than the CCP.

A house divided...

The ChiComs have to get this done while they have such massive leverage on the White House. Brandon’s tenure is reaching the end, although they may find Kamala’s stupidity as nearly as advantageous.

China is a frenemy. Let’s be at peace but not trust them any further than we can throw ‘em. Don’t build the plant.

The left will support ANYONE who will provide the narcotics and the abortions.. Narcotics is the life's blood of the democratic party, and the Chinese know it..

The UniParty appears to be far more beholden to or blackmailed by Russian and Chinese interests than to American interests.

so far it appears they’re gonna get away with it

“Narcotics is the life’s blood of the democratic party, and the Chinese know it..”

A turn around on the opium wars.

“The Left” isn’t interested in fighting the CCP, because “The Left” is so in bed with the CCP as to be largely indistinguishable.

“Corn mill”? Sounds like the CCP figured out how to get a “fishing trawler” into America’s heartland.

“Frenemy”? I think you’ve got a couple of excess letters there.

Considering the number of curious fires that lately have been destroying or damaging our sources of foodstuffs, maybe one of those fires might happen at these CCP facilities ...

Who am I kidding ... these CCP facilities will be guarded by Chinese security teams with shoot-to-kill ROE. Unlike here in the USA where critical power and supply line centers are unguarded, the CCP facility will be guarded tighter than Area 51.

North Dakota is a very Red state. But people have to realize that not only the press, but the city governments of Fargo and Grand Forks have become very liberal over the past 20 years. I can certainly see money buying influence over those that do not love this country, even here in North Dakota.

If I were King of America for a day, I’d evict EVERY Chinese national living in America and make it illegal for a Chinese company to own or be a partner with an American company!

There are 300,000 ++ Chinese students attending US colleges and universities - THEY ARE ALL SPIES! SENDEM HOME!

With regard to ownership of American companies and farmland, ALL Chinese owned companies and farmland should be confiscated and returned to American ownership!

CHINA IS AT WAR WITH AMERICA, PEOPLE!

WHEN WILL WE WAKE UP TO THAT FACT!

While I agree the Chinese shouldn't be allowed to do this, I have to wonder what REALLY brought those visits from officialdom. Did these people shoot off their mouths about doing something violent?
