The Chinese Communist Party has lately become decidedly more aggressive. Consider a few examples:

The CCP is ramping up its non-kinetic “unrestricted warfare” against us, which includes fomenting street riots. It is listing more companies in our stock markets to finance the PRC’s malevolence. And the Chinese Communists make no secret of their determination to prevent President Trump’s reelection.

But what if Beijing has something even worse in mind? We cannot ignore evidence that the CCP is preparing for actual conflict with us. The PRC has declared a “people’s war” against America and dictator Xi Jinping has directed his rapidly growing military to get ready for it. China’s civilians have lately been subjected to air defense drills and encouraged to stockpile food and water in anticipation of imminent conflict.

If we hope to deter war, we better prepare for it, too.
