Will We be Living Dangerously in 2026?

2026 will be a challenging year. The United States will be preoccupied with potentially game-changing mid-term elections. Western European nations seem likely to slide further into what Team Trump calls illegal immigrant-induced “civilization erasure.” 

Then, there’s Russia’s intensifying bloodletting in Ukraine and  Western civilization’s unfinished wars with jihadists in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran. 

The question to which we must give earnest, focused and sustained attention is: Will China’s dictator, Xi Jinping, perceive such distractions – at least some of which he relentlessly fosters – as an irresistible opportunity to transition from the pre-kinetic warfare his Chinese Communist Party has long waged against us to a shooting war?

An important webinar today will explore that prospect – and what we must be doing now to prepare for, and hopefully deter, it. You have a need-to-know. Join us at PresentDangerChina.org at 1 p.m. Eastern Time.
