this is a very big deal and everyone should know it is not without substantial risk and cost.
“this is a very big deal and everyone should know it is not without substantial risk and cost.”
According to Gordon Chang in the article:
“Pompeo’s comprehensive speech caps a series of remarks that are changing American foreign policy: two addresses from Vice President Mike Pence, in October 2018 and one a year later; one from Pompeo last October; and three speeches June and this month, from National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien, FBI Director Christopher Wray, and Attorney General William Barr.
Taken together, these six pronouncements constitute today’s version of the Long Telegram of 1946 and the “X Article” of 1947, George Kennan’s paradigm-changing thoughts on the Soviet Union.”
It would have been less risk and cost if we had done what was needed before China got so strong, but the risks and costs will be even higher, the longer the communists are allowed to build their strength, and undermine ours.
Without the USA, no other Nation would likely be able to save humanity from the Orwellian fate that the ChiComs are preparing to impose.
Without President Trump, the USA would be unlikely to do it either.
