China War

While Admiral Dan Lenson motorcycles across a post-Armageddon US in search of his missing daughter, his wife, Blair Titus, lands in a spookily deserted, riot-torn Beijing to negotiate the reunification of Taiwan with the rest of China and try to create a democratic government. But a CIA-sponsored Islamic insurgency in Xianjiang province is hurtling out of control. Andres Korzenowski, a young case officer, must decide whether ex-SEAL Master Chief Teddy Oberg - now the leader of a ruthless jihad - should be extracted, left in place, or terminated.

On 20 October 1962, high in the Himalayas, on the banks of the fast-flowing Nam Ka Chu, over 400 Indian soldiers were massacred, and the valley was overrun by soldiers of China's People's Liberation Army. Over the course of the next month, nearly 4,000 soldiers were killed on both sides, and the Indian army experienced its worst defeat ever. The conflict (war was never formally declared) ended because China announced a unilateral ceasefire on 21 November and halted its hitherto unhindered advance across NEFA and Ladakh.

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 ...

“Bill Holstein’s gripping reporting on the extent of China’s incursion into American commerce, culture, education and politics is so alarming that if you put this book under your pillow it would keep you up all night. A must read for everyone to understand the just below-the-surface asymmetric war China is relentlessly waging against the largely-unsuspecting United States.” —Allan Dodds Frank, an Emmy and Loeb Award-winning business investigative journalist. “The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting. —Sun Tzu, author, The Art of War The challenge is this:...

What happens when the world’s dominant superpower begins to lose not just its influence—but the trust of its allies, the credibility of its currency, and the cohesion of its own institutions? Unraveled: The Death of Globalization and the Fall of America delivers a gripping, deeply researched account of how American hegemony quietly fractured from within. This isn't a story of sudden collapse. It’s a forensic dissection of the slow, deliberate dismantling of the postwar order—engineered not by enemies, but by decades of political short-termism, elite self-dealing, and institutional ...

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, ...

As a young man, Norman Bethune served as a stretcher-bearer in the First World War. The experience left him with the dedication and passion to lead crusades to find a cure for tuberculosis, to introduce universal health care in Canada, and to introduce mobile blood transfusion units to save wounded soldier's lives on the battlefield. He served with the Republican armies during the Spanish Civil War and in China where he died of blood poisoning in 1939 Because of his left wing politics, Bethune was ignored for decades in his home country. His childhood home in Gravenhurst, Ontario sees large...

Kirchner elaborates on a simple plan to let China destroy itself by effectively not doing anything. China should be allowed to expand, take control of all of its provinces, and dominate East Asia in its entirety. Socialism and communism have failed every time they have been tried; China is no exception. The case is made that US and Western involvement in the region as China reaches the milestone of being the world's largest economy is a complete waste of time. There is no reason for Western taxpayers and militaries to prop up pseudo democracies referred to as countries in the region because...

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.

Ten days after the end of World War II, a young American missionary was brutally murdered by the Chinese Communists in 1945. Grievously, John Birch’s parents were informed that he had been killed by a stray bullet. Robert Welch, founder of The John Birch Society, was determined that John Birch did not die in vain. Throughout the book, you’ll realize the significance that Birch’s life represented: communism vs. capitalism, freedom vs. tyranny, and Americanism vs. globalism.

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.

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.

In February 1972, President Nixon arrived in Beijing for what Chairman Mao Zedong called the "week that changed the world". Using recently declassified sources from American, Chinese, European, and Soviet archives, Chris Tudda's A Cold War Turning Point reveals new details about the relationship forged by the Nixon administration and the Chinese government that dramatically altered the trajectory of the Cold War.

Vladimir Putin, the chief executive of the Russian state, shares his side of Russia's relationship with NATO, the United States, and the West with an American journalist, Tucker Carlson.Topics addressed: Why does Putin feel that Russia has a right to Ukrainian soil? Has Russia ever had any interest in joining NATO? Why does Russia seek to align itself with China on the international stage, and what has that partnership been like?And more. This transcript has been excellently formatted for a convenient reading experience on your Kindle or tablet, and is offered here without any alterations ...

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 ...

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.

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.

The United States of America has been the most powerful country in the world for more than 70 years, but recently the US National Security Strategy declared that the return of great power competition with Russia and China is the greatest threat to US national security. Further, many analysts predict that America's autocratic rivals will have at least some success in disrupting - and, in the longer term, possibly even displacing - US global leadership. Brilliant and engagingly written, The Return of Great Power Rivalry argues that this conventional wisdom is wrong.
