"All warfare is based on deception.� --Sun Tzu The recent Chinese refutation of speculation they intend to use a massive sell-off of U.S. dollar holdings is deception. It is at best disingenuous�at worst, classic Sun Tzu.
China has $1.3-Trillion in foreign exchange reserves and is the largest in the world. The presumption is that the bulk of those massive reserves is in U.S. dollars and represents a double edge sword of Damocles.
The Chicoms are not yet equal to the U.S. in military might (although they are intent at working their plan to correct that). However, as I have stated many times before, the future preparation of the battlefield by the communist Red Chinese will not consist of just rockets and bombs.
Recently, Britain�s The Daily Telegraph quoted Chicom economists as saying China would dump its dollar holdings if or when there were a trade war with Washington. That Scribean (or Machiavellian) slip of the tongue added significantly to the hinkiness on Wall Street already angst ridden by volatility in U.S. share markets.
The China threat is very real and in many ways far more dangerous and ominous that the contemporary dangers of Islamic fundamentalist terrorism.
- China intends
to go to war with us eventually
- They have said so repeatedly.
- Their actions
militarily and economically have been in support of their agenda.
- China is meticulously
working their plan to correct their military and strategic deficiencies.
- China has control of the Panama Canal and both ends of the channel.
- China is routinely undermining US interests whenever and wherever they can.
- China�s satellite technology (abetted by the Clinton administration) is preparing for preparing the battlefield.
- China�s cyber warfare capacities are significant and growing.
- China has us by the short hairs over the value of the dollar and currency markets worldwide.
I have said it time, Again, Again, and will continue to beat the drum.
Washington has pointed to China's growing reserves as proof that the Chinese currency is undervalued, making Chinese exports cheap, putting American manufacturers at a disadvantage and compounding a hefty U.S. trade deficit. Recently there have been renewed calls by several U.S. senators to punish Beijing if it does not let the currency, the yuan, rise in value. We are being �rope-a-doped� by Chicom money managers.

Communist China, has been, is, and will remain, an enemy of the United States.
Despite the occasion mixed or contradictory messages, China isn't really even being all that covert about their intentions anymore. China is an enemy because they say so.
Sun Tzu declared in "The Art of War," "Attack when they are unprepared, make your move when they do not expect it . . . So a military force is established by deception, mobilized by gain, and adapted by division and combination."
Confusius said, "If you know, to recognize that you know, if you don't know, to realize that you don't know: That is knowledge."
1. China has SAID intend to go to war with us �eventually�.
2. We know they have a stranglehold on our economic well being.
3. We know they have been and continue to build their military.
4. We know they have extended and developed significant strategic footholds beyond their territory.
5. We know they are increasing their satellite technology.
6. We know they are increasing their capacity to wage cyber war.
7. We know they have a plan and are working their plan.
Americans may want/need instant gratification. However, Asians tend to not only develop long-term plans � decade-long plans � they also actually work their plans�and China personifies that axiom.
Eventually, inevitably, failing some unlikely policy or political sea change, China will pick a fight with us. They are preparing . . . we are not.
- China intends to attack Taiwan if or when Taiwan attempts to declare independence.
- Within 15 years Communist China will control over 80 percent of the South China Sea.
- Within three years (2010) China will have a navy FIVE TIMES LARGER THAN OURS.
If you throw in the economic collapse card, mixed with a strategic biological attack, added to global isolation and trade sanctions, the U.S. would be S.O.L. (simply out of luck) when the Red Dragon decided to roll out the bombers and tanks.

Over a decade ago students at the Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island, played out a �war game� in a 2010 environment that resulted in the U.S. Seventh Fleet being crushed by China.
China IS a for-real, you damnbetcha threat.
