Legendary Navy Admiral on China: We had a “Holy S—” Moment!
China’s continual theft of US intellectual property has China’s technical and defense capabilities quickly approaching – and sometimes surpassing our own, claims a report from the nonpartisan Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). , a situation representing what retired Navy SEAL Admiral William McRaven called a “holy s—” moment for the US.
China has already surpassed us in terms of 5G commercialization.
The situation with China should be a “Sputnik” moment for the US, said McRaven, referring to the Cold War space race with Russia. “We need to make sure that the American public knows that now is the time to do something” about China’s R&D developments.
The CFR’s report portrays China as the most significant threat to the US, citing not only its massive military (two million active personnel) and technological advances but also its hacking capabilities and its aggression in the South China Sea.
And remember – all of these resources are controlled by China’s Communist Party.
William McRaven is a legendary Navy SEAL Admiral who was involved in the capture of Saddam Hussein and the rescue of Captain Phillips from Somali pirates. He led Special Operations Command during the 2011 mission that killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. Today, he teaches national security at the University of Texas.
Editor’s note: Hopefully Punching Bag Post readers already understand why Trump is beating the crap out of China with tariffs. China’s products are cheap but they require anyone who produces there to give up their intellectual property to get the efficiencies.
Read some of the other PBP articles on China from the last year. Do you really want China to be in a position of power over the free world? ‘Holy S—” indeed!
NO! WE AS A COUNTRY HAVE BECOME SO PC THAT WE ARE ALLOWING NOT JUST CHINA,BUT MANY OTHER COUNTRIES ALSO. FOR GENERATIONS BEFORE US WE WERE THE EPICENTER OF POWER AND TECHNOLOGY AND THEN ASSHOLES LIKE BUSH AND OBAMA BROUGHT US TO OUR KNEES IN ORDER TO FURTHER THIER OWN AGENDA. THEY EVEN HAVE US AT EACH OTHER. “GO TRUMP 2020”.
Rodney Brown, you are ABSOLUTELY right. GO TRUMP 2020
Yep!
I AGREE 100% WITH RODNEY BROWN–AND ADM MCRAVEN IS ANTI TRUMP!!!!!!!!
We have had from the time after Truman until Trump, with 2 exceptions, a political class that only focused on their own interests and could care less for the welfare of this Country. This Country has abandoned God, the Principles upon which this Country was founded, and adopted greed and self interest as their god. We will never be a great Country as long as a political class believes they are the rulers rather than our public servants. Until we have some reform limiting our elected and appointed Federal servants to a few terms, we will always be ruled by greedy individuals and their self-serving sycophants.
THERE ALL GETTING A HEAD OF AMERICA WHILE OUT POLITICIANS ACT THERE 5 YEARS OLD (DEMCO-RATES )
MR. BROWN IS CORRECT, AS PRESIDENT TRUMP STATED FOUR YEARS AGO: ‘P.C. MUST GO!” IT’S AN EXCUSE TO DO NOTHING AND BE FROZEN BY LIBERAL SCORN……..SOMETHING OUR GREAT POTUS NEVER ALLOWS! TO CALL LOSERS LIKE BUSH AND B. HUSSEIN OBAMA *SSHOLES IS MUCH TOO COMPLIMENTARY; THEY ARE THE CAUSE OF 80% OF AMERICA’S PROBLEMS THE PAST SIXTEEN YEARS AND ARE AMONG THE “WORST IN THE WHITEHOUSE” SINCE “USELESS” GRANT AND WARREN HARDING—— CORRUPTED TO THE CORE IN A HUNDRED WAYS. READ THE BOOK: “CULTURE OF CORRUPTION” BY M. MAULKIN—- IT HAS OBAMA’S GIANT MUG ON THE ENTIRE FRONT COVER——– A NEW YORK TIMES “BESTSELLER” 2009-10! THANK YOU FOR YOU COMMENT MR. BROWN!
