We must stop China's nuclear program!

[ABikerSailor]

In an interview Monday, Cain said part of China's threat to the United States stems from its attempts to develop nuclear weapons -- even though China tested its first nuclear weaponin 1964.


"Yes, they're a military threat," Cain said on the PBS NewsHour, in response to a question from Judy Woodruff. "They've indicated that they're trying to develop nuclear capability and they want to develop more aircraft carriers like we have. So yes, we have to consider them a military threat."

How China is advancing its military reach
17 January 2012 - In recent months China's airforce and navy have rolled out new hardware

As the US shifts its focus to Asia, Alexander Neill, head of the Asia Security Programme at the Royal United Services Institute, sets out the Chinese military advances challenging the regional balance. At the Pentagon recently, US President Barack Obama announced deep cuts to the US military and set out a shift in attention towards the Asia-Pacific region, in a thinly-veiled message to China. Despite a narrative of peaceful intent, China's leaders have struggled to reassure the US over the direction of the People's Liberation Army (PLA). Both countries admit that their military dialogue falls well behind other aspects of the relationship.

So the shift has brought renewed scrutiny of the PLA's latest capabilities against US dominance in the Pacific. In recent years the PLA has demonstrated impressive new capabilities at sea and in space, aimed at showcasing the success of its modernisation effort. The obvious message is to deliver a powerful warning if Taiwan were to declare formal independence. But Pentagon planners are now concerned that the Taiwan contingency has been eclipsed by China's broader maritime territorial claims and demands for more international space to protect the arteries feeding China's growth.

'Unrestricted warfare'

China is developing a range of capabilities linked to the space and cyber domain in order to sidestep the overwhelming might of the US military in the Pacific region. The PLA calls this fighting "local wars under informationised conditions". China recognised almost two decades ago that in the mid-term the PLA could be no match for US conventional forces. So it began working on what was dubbed "unrestricted warfare" - combining multiple methods to defeat a superior opponent.

At the same time party leaders launched adventurous civilian acquisition projects in the high-tech domain to increase Chinese competitiveness and to boost indigenous production capabilities. The PLA has been running military projects mirroring these civilian acquisition ventures. Sometimes involving dual-use technologies, the military and civilian strands have often been indistinguishable. China's space programme is a case in point. The recent successful docking manoeuvre between a Shenzhou module and the Tiangong Space station is as much a triumph for the PLA as it is for China's civilian space agency.

Every country in the world wants to be the one ultimate super-power. China is no exception.

Thank goodness that our great capitalist leaders have invested so heavily in China.

It was starting to feel lonely here at the top.

Retired military officers call for curbing China's power
Mar 19, 2012* - China's burgeoning military poses a significant security threat to Southeast Asia and beyond unless quickly counterbalanced by the U.S. and its allies, said several retired military officers Monday at a Washington symposium.

That threat could hit global waters in as soon as 10 years, Yoji Koda, a retired vice admiral with the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, said at The Washington Times Foundation-sponsored event at the Capitol. “The U.S. may be shadow-boxing against an elusive threat to them … [but] today is not the time to shadow-box,” said Adm. Koda, who was a senior fellow at the Harvard University Asia Center. “The U.S., Japan and South Korea must be ready and together prepare for the growing Chinese threat 10 to 20 years from now.”

Because China’s long-range nuclear missile capability doesn’t match that of the U.S., it relies heavily on mobile warships as potential launch sites for nuclear weapons, he said. “The role of China's navy is much larger than that of the United States,” he said. China also is beefing up its naval presence in Africa and South America as a way to expand its global influence, Adm. Koda said. “That’s the frontier for China,” he said. “To exercise its influence and also to gain a victory over the natural resources competition in Africa, China needs a navy.”

Patrick M. Walsh, a retired U.S. Navy admiral who commanded the U.S. Pacific Fleet from 2009 to 2012 and was a vice chief of naval operations, warned that China’s political, economic and military expansion will be both “dramatic and traumatic.” The growing procurement of warships by nations throughout Southeast Asia — including China‘a recent intentions to purchase aircraft carriers — challenges security and stability in the region, he said.

Adm. Walsh added that China’s millennia-old conflicts with its neighbors and its sense of history make the arms race in the Pacific Rim different than those in the Middle East. “This is not an ideology, this is the nation-state concept coming in to direct contact and collision with a country that views itself as a civilization,” he said Adm. Walsh also warned against viewing China and other Southeast Asian nations as only economic partners. “It’s easily to rationalize something as being too far in the future to be worried about,” he said. “Looking at economics as a sole indicator of national interests and roles will bring you to just ignorant one-dimensional conclusions.”
