The best way is to make China democratic and civil as a means to alleviating war in the greater Asian region.

The world’s alliance of democratic and free countries must rethink how to tame an awakened Asian giant for the benefit of humanity, without firing a shot. The best defeat their enemies without a fight.” On the other hand, the ongoing economic warfare invoked by China’s rejection of coal, lobsters, wine and red meat from Australia, and pineapples and other fruits from Taiwan, and to monopolize rare earth metals, are the acts of a spoiled child that no parent can tackle but must tolerate.Īs Sun Tzu (孫子) wrote in The Art of War: “Those who are victorious in all battles are not the best of the best warriors.

Faced with China’s expanding nuclear arsenal, naval fleet and space war capabilities, the world will have a hard time stopping Chinese aggression with any military might.Ī military war with China would be the last resort of all options considered, although it must remain one. The world has awoken to Chinese military confrontation, economic warfare, cyberespionage, cultural onslaught, political maneuvering and many more offenses that have grown even more serious as China’s GDP increased. The brutal oppression of the Hong Kong democracy movement, the crimes against humanity targeting Uighur and other Turkic Muslims, the aggressive diplomatic and military actions toward neighboring countries, such as India and Australia, and in the South China Sea, and the continual military incursions into Taiwan’s air defense identification zone are just a few examples of China’s untamed, uncivilized and unfortunate character. Moreover, as China amasses wealth, military strength, and legitimacy in the UN and other global organizations, the world’s safety net has been compromised by the irresponsible acts of this autocratic government. Its latest irresponsible act is to deny, delay and deceive about the origin of COVID-19 and risk of human-to-human transmission, leading to the deaths of more than 5 million people worldwide, including about 115,000 health workers. Instead, sad stories of inhumanity abound, such as those that occurred during the Cultural Revolution. The 100-year-old CCP has shown little appreciation for democracy, human rights or civilized behavior in world affairs. Founded in 1921, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) established the People’s Republic of China in 1949 after driving out the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT).
