Thread: Is China a Global Threat?! Sanctions initiated to prevent the use of U.S. technology in their supercomputers.

A recent article from BBC News (1) indicates that the U.S. is concerned about the use by China of supercomputers to enhance their ability to design advanced weapon systems. Seven Chinese groups have been blacklisted. The measures have been initiated by President Biden in order to prevent the use of U.S. technology in the design, construction and operation of such computers.

These computers are used for various reasons, for both commercial and military applications. These different operations cannot be separated from each other. Supercomputers are used in the virtual design and testing of thermonuclear weapons and hyper-sonic aircraft, to name just a few worrisome aspects of their application.

China has been modernizing its military capabilities in recent years, and is already trying to seize the entire South China Sea for their own purposes. This area, valuable for raw materials and food, is largely open to all countries for navigation, and most of it falls under the 200 mile exclusive economic zones (2) for three countries: The Philippines, Vietnam and Malaysia.

The Chinese are violating international laws by dredging up "new land" in the South China Sea - clearly an attempt to control most of the area for their own purposes. The Chinese have no concern for the rights of other nations. These actions suggest they have no limits on what they deem appropriate for their grand plans for a future world, apparently under their control.

Does China represent a threat to the world with their activities to skirt international laws, and in modernizing their military to literally combat any push-back to their naked acts of aggression?!

The thread could easily be moved to politics, though and then it would be perfectly fair comment. China is a global threat, clearly.

It seems unlikely. After all, we are not in China.

Sometimes science and world events are inseparable. This is one of those cases, and deserves discussion, not suppression.

Perhaps you would care to debate these issues rather than have them deleted.

Politico has released a story on the current state of U.S. intelligence agencies and their willingness to publicize the threats posed by China and Russia, and who is winning the "information war".

It tells a rather scary story :

"Spy chiefs look to declassify intel after rare plea from 4-star commanders"

Clearly you do not want information posted and debated which does not fit your ideas of the world.

Fortunately you are posting on a forum that allows free exchange of ideas, and does not suppress alternate views. You might want to consider another forum where they tell you what to read, and censure the truth if it causes trouble. It would seem you would prefer to be ignorant vs. well informed. That is your choice. Do not try to force it on others.

So if "this place" has become defiled, why do you keep posting?

For those wanting more information on the threats posed by China to world peace and security, it would be advisable to read the following overview from Wikilpedia*. Quoting from this article:

"China is known to have stolen classified information on the W-56 Minuteman II ICBM, the W-62 Minuteman III ICBM, the W-70 Lance short-range ballistic missile (SRBM), the W-76 Trident C-4 submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM), the W-78 Minuteman III Mark 12A ICBM, the W-87 Peacekeeper ICBM and the W-88 Trident D-5 SLBM and weapon-design concepts and features."

This is just a sample of what they are doing to destabilize world peace and force their suppressive form of government on the rest of the world. Intellectual property theft, and brutal treatment of people in Hong Kong and other regions they occupy are more examples from which the world can gain an understanding of their intentions. If they treat their own people so brutally (or those they have enslaved), how will they treat the rest of the world?

China is not to be trusted with anything. It is pretty clear what they are up to:

"Chinese espionage in the United States"

And then there is this link. It is very revealing about their stealth "diplomacy" :

"China's salami slicing"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China%27s_salami_slicing

and let's not forget :

"Xinjiang internment camps"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xinjia...ducation_camps

or this one :

"Antireligious campaigns in China"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antire...aigns_in_China

and this one :

"Human rights in China"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_in_China

There is much more evidence to support a global threat to the free world from China, but this is a start. Perhaps xingha would care to comment further on these aspects. If not, many more can be posted.

China has already been considered by a number of countries as a strategic threat for many years. And with the development of technology in this country, the threat has undoubtedly increased. In addition, do not forget that China has long been a global player in the global arms market.

They are not alone.

Along with China, the other four permanent members of the United Nations Security Council - the U.S., U.K., Russia and France - are also some of the largest exporters of weapons.

The issue is more about who they are supplying, and what is being done with the weapons.
