China War

The fifth world war is well underway, and no one is talking about it. This is partly as a distraction and, also, because no one really wants to face the major issue impacting our world today. If you still think China is peaceful and COVID19 was a natural phenomenon, you're quite confused. Historically, the pandemic will formally mark every nation in the world becoming a state of China, and although it's debatable that this wasn't true before, it's unquestionably incontestable now. The future that all nations face as China being the world's sole economic superpower is nothing short of ...

Zwischen den Weltmächten China und USA tobt ein Kampf um die technologische Vorherrschaft.. Esgeht um Künstliche Intelligenz, Superchips und -computer, neue Medikamente und Behandlungen, um selbstfahrende Autos und Flüge zum Mond und Mars. Aber es geht auch um Killerdrohnen oder kämpfende Roboter. Chinaexperte Wolfgang Hirn zeigt, dass in vielen Tech-Bereichen China in den vergangenen Jahren gewaltig aufgeholt hat und in manchen gar führend ist, und er fragt: Kann Europa bei diesem Duell mithalten und eventuell seine technologische Souveränität zurückholen?

A poetic, prophetic pandemic memoir hailed by humans, AI, and future historians alike. When COVID-19 first struck, Jorah Kai was already locked down in Chongqing, China—an ancient, cyberpunk megacity predicted to become one of the first global epicenters of the storm. As a former journalist, DJ, philosopher, and English teacher, Kai turned to what he knew best: writing. What began as a personal diary evolved into a gripping, poetic chronicle of survival, fear, resilience, and humanity in a world turned upside down. The Invisible War is more than just a memoir—it's an immersive journey ...

Diego Garcia is an island in the Indian Ocean. Technically a British Indian Ocean Territory, since 1966 it has been dominated by U.S. military facilities headed by Navy Support Facility Diego Garcia and its current 2,800 personnel. China’s lucrative trade route to Europe ran through the South China Sea, the Indian Ocean, and the Mediterranean. To help preserve European countries’ economies, the U.S. Navy established a quarantine against Chinese cargo vessels. This led to naval engagements between American and Chinese forces. Due to the inability to resolve the dispute diplomatically, ...

Many people in the West look upon the Second Sino-Japanese War, which took place in the 1930s and 1940s, as a sort of sideshow to the larger Second World War, but there is no separating the two. Imagine the Pacific War, the theater of World War II that took place in the Pacific. If the Japanese were not busy fighting on another front, they would have had millions of more troops available to fight the Americans and the British. In all likelihood, World War II would have ended the same way, but it would have taken much longer and cost that many more lives.

Ten days after the end of World War II, a young American missionary was brutally murdered by the Chinese Communists in 1945.

Throughout the book, you’ll realize the significance that Birch’s life represented: communism vs. capitalism, freedom vs. tyranny, and Americanism vs. globalism.

China loomed large on the world stage. Wealth, power, and hundreds of years of rule by the Manchus of the Qing Dynasty catapulted them to new heights, but with power and prestige came those who would do anything to usurp their authority and undermine their sense of stability. The British Empire and its faithful allies devised a masterful plan and executed it with stark precision. Vicious lies, cheating, and stealing were only the beginning of what they had in store for the nation.

This all-time classic is still perhaps the most prestigious and influential book of strategy in the world, as eagerly studied in Asia by modern politicians and executives as it has been by military leaders since ancient times.

Its aim is invincibility, victory without battle, and unassailable strength through understanding the physics, politics, and psychology of conflict.

The Ukraine has been a safety plug for Europe for three decades, and if NATO wanted it as part of the alliance, it would have already let it in. President Putin has come to play, and he and the rest of Russia have nothing to lose. The major winner in all of this will be China as they will rebuild the entire region, profit heavily off the borrowing, and can use the war to deflect the COVID19 debacle that they created. At least now, we know the true intent behind releasing COVID19, and we should expect similar military actions in East Asia soon. Most Westerners don't care about what is ...

Ryan Hass charts a path forward in America's relationship and rivalry with China rooted in the relative advantages America already possesses. Hass argues that while competition will remain the defining trait of the relationship, both countries will continue to be impacted - for good or ill - by their capacity to coordinate on common challenges that neither can solve on its own, such as pandemic disease, global economic recession, climate change, and nuclear nonproliferation.

Years before the CIA was formed there was something called the Office of Strategic Services. Georgetown Township resident Al Johnson was a charter member of this clandestine group during World War II, joining forces with the French Underground and then fighting the Japanese occupation of China. The OSS conducted secret missions hundreds of miles behind enemy lines. Al Johnson who is 98 years old said one of the toughest part might have been "keeping a lid on" everywhere he was and everything he did. "It was such a hush-hush group. We couldn't talk about it when we got home on furloughs. We ...

In the last years of her life, Teresa Lim's mother, Violet Chang, had copies of a cherished family photograph made for those in the portrait who were still alive.
