China War

The media cycle has now picked up the "lab leak theory" again as we start to get back to normal in developing countries following nearly 20 months of being lockdown by a global pandemic that came out of Wuhan, China. BSL-4 labs aren't new, and although it's difficult to say for sure, there are about 50 of these labs globally. The first one was seen in the US in 1967, and we have seen them developed in the following decades in response to increased scientific collaboration, better education, and a rise in the global population. What the world witnessed and is currently dealing with was not ...

Out in the Pacific Ocean, there is a war taking place. It is a "warm war", a shoving match between the United States, since World War II the uncontested ruler of the seas, and China, which now possesses the world's largest navy. The Chinese regard the Pacific, and especially the South China Sea, as their ocean, and they're ready to defend it. Each day the heat between the two countries increases as the Chinese try to claim the South China Sea for their own, and the United States insists on asserting freedom of navigation.

What a ride the Modern Age has been! There have been so many ups and downs with new varieties of the same old problems that we have been encountering since the first anatomical human started walking the Earth. There's nothing more depressing than reading a cynical novella that opens your eyes to the misery and suffering in the world, but these topics need to be addressed. Every cloud has a silver, and although, countless numbers of children, women, and men have died from COVID19, nearly every individual on the planet has been imprisoned in their apartment or home for over the last two years...

The relationship between the US and China, the world's two superpowers, is peculiarly volatile. It rests on a seismic fault of cultural misunderstanding, historical grievance and ideological incompatibility. No other nations are so quick to offend and be offended. Former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, who has studied, lived in and worked with China for more than 40 years, is one of the very few people who can offer real insight into the mindsets of the leadership whose judgement will determine if a war will be fought.

Though scarcely mentioned in the world of early 21st century politics, Manchuria represented a key region of Asia during the first half of the 20th century. Once the heartland of the fierce Manchu empire, this northeastern Chinese region's rich natural resources made it a prize for nations in the process of entering the modern age, and three ambitious nations in the midst of such a transformation lay close enough to Manchuria to attempt to claim it: Japan, Russia, and China.

War-game simulation specialists James F. Dunnigan and Austin Bay have revised their highly regarded analyses, bringing up to date not only the many conventional conflicts around the world today but the new battlegrounds that have emerged since the previous edition was published more than a decade ago - the Global War on Terror, counterinsurgency struggles around the world and the latest frontier of modern combat: cyber war.

While I’ve been cooling my heels in Africa, things have been happening at a furious pace back home. Zombies have founded a city right next to mine, and the nearest human settlements are now united and busy sharpening their knives. Meanwhile, traitors weave their webs of intrigue within the Architects Clan itself, and a numberless horde of zombies is moving relentlessly toward us from China. And these are just some of the problems I’m going to have to solve as soon as I get home.

China-Burma-India is one of the most forgotten theaters of World War 2. As the United States entered the war after Pearl Harbor, it looked to China as a source of manpower as well as a base for bombers and a way to eventually invade Japan. The Japanese, British, Americans, and Chinese each had their own motivations and policies in the Pacific that would ultimately lead to the involvement of Burma in the Pacific War. The conflict in Burma was an intricate affair that may be best understood through the story of the first Yunnan Expedition into Burma.

Historian and geopolitical expert Michael Auslin argues that far from being a cohesive powerhouse, Asia is a fractured region threatened by stagnation and instability. Here he provides a comprehensive account of the economic, military, political, and demographic risks that bedevil half of our world, arguing that Asia, working with the United States, has a unique opportunity to avert catastrophe - but only if it acts boldly.

The last two years have been really difficult for everyone around the globe. Some people have moved out of cities, and others have just given up and taken to the streets. We now have vaccines to fight against COVID19 but access to them does not exist in every country yet. It is clear that the WHO has lost interest in its investigation into the origins of the disease, and in reality, this is probably a good thing because it is a waste of time. The virus could have been released by the Chinese Communist Party, hundreds of other governments, or millions of organizations around the globe. To ...

There comes a time when the world community has to say enough is enough. We have been lulled into complacency by China's cheap FMCG in our markets and entire livelihoods have become dependent on working at the retail stores that distribute these goods. How did we get to this point? Every dollar, euro, pound, etc... spent on a good that at some point was manufactured in China is a vote against our own freedom. China's ambitions through the Belt and Road Initiative and RCEP are to enslave the world, and the mainstream media and governments aren't talking about it because they are controlled ...

We have entered a new Cold War, even if most people choose not to admit it. The contest between America and China is global and unbridgeable, and it encompasses all major instruments of statecraft: diplomacy, technology, military power, intelligence, trade and investment. It has its tinder box: Taiwan. And both protagonists are working hard to draw allies and friends to their side from east and west, north and south. We stand at its beginning. But this Cold War is nothing like the last one between the Soviet Union and the West, which defined the second half of the twentieth century.

The Japanese army's brutal occupation of the city of Nanking during the 1937 Sino-Japanese War is known, for good reason, as the rape of Nanking. As they slaughtered an estimated 300,000 people, the invading soldiers raped more than 20,000 women - some estimates run as high as 80,000. Hua-ling Hu presents here the amazing untold story of the American missionary Minnie Vautrin, whose unswerving defiance of the Japanese protected 10,000 Chinese women and children.

After China launches its attack on Taiwan, America will respond. But how far will the US go to keep Taiwan out of Beijing’s control? Russia wants to make money selling equipment, weapons, and fuel to the Chinese war machine. But, if China wins in Taiwan, will it stop there? Or will it begin to eye the over 4,000 kilometer long border it shares with Russia? If nuclear war does break out between the US and China, will Russia be able to stay on the sidelines? This time, even Russia’s most capable agents might not be able to save their country from disaster.

For the first time in any modern language, a female scholar and translator reimagines The Art of War. Sun Tzu’s ancient book of strategy and psychology has as much to tell us today as when it was first written 2,500 years ago. In a world forever at odds, his rules for anticipating the motivations and strategies of our competitors never cease to inspire leaders of all kinds.

Hundreds die in a fiery train crash in northern China. A cargo ship smuggling refugees is lost to calm seas off the Libyan coast. Entire villages in Ghana are abandoned overnight.

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 ...

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 ...

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?
