Nov 15, 2022
General Robert Spalding, a retired US Air Force brigadier general and author, delves into China's strategic approach to global dominance, rooted in the concept of 'Unrestricted Warfare.' He discusses how the Chinese Communist Party exploits Western vulnerabilities through non-violent means, including corporate espionage and digital manipulation. Spalding warns that a Chinese invasion of Taiwan may be more feasible than past conflicts and offers insights on ways individuals can resist CCP influence. His insights prompt urgent discussions on national security and the importance of transparency in international relations.
