The [Communist] Party’s collusion with Western politicians and businessmen rests on a lie; Chinese leaders project themselves as the custodians of a culture that they have, in fact, done their best to destroy.

Guy Sorman, The Empire of Lies

The Chinese communist regime is an “empire of lies” as Guy Sorman explained to his readers. It is also an empire of secret agents and infiltrators. The communists are also building the largest military machine in the world. What do the Chinese communists plan to do with their military? Will they provoke a war in the Far East? On Friday I was able to interview Mr. D. Wang of Lude Media, who has sources inside the CCP and People’s Liberation Army.

An INterview on China’s Strategies for 2024

With Mr. D. Wang of Lude media
23 February 2024

JRN: You recently received intelligence about a special operation against Taiwan that was initiated on 10 February against Taiwan. What can you tell us about this operation and how it works?

LUDE: “Operation Dang Gui” [where Dang Gui signifies “should return”] has two parts. There is the “Small Dang Gui” and the “Big Dang Gui” Operation. There are several aspects to this plan. They are going to enclose Taiwan without attacking it. And they are going to put pressure on Taiwan, from outside. Then they are going to provoke a conflict. The purpose is to bring the Taiwanese military under the control of the Chinese Communist Party. The CCP is going to use its agents in the KMT [Nationalist Party] while infiltrating and using local Taiwanese religious groups.

JRN: Using religion?

LUDE: Yes – and by exploiting the local culture. This is called the Mazu Plan.

JRN: To turn Taiwan’s flank using religion and local culture?

LUDE: Yes.

JRN: Has preparation for this operation been underway for a long time?

LUDE: This has been planned, obviously, for a long time. The reason being, that from a skill perspective, there is the ongoing work of compromising certain people. Because it involves the local culture and the popular Mazu belief, the CCP has been infiltrating temples and religious communities. If the CCP wants to influence these people during an election or military operation, they have to get local leaders to act in accordance with the CCP’s purposes.

JRN: This sounds familiar. The Soviet KGB did the same thing with Christian churches in the West and mosques in the Islamic world.

LUDE: In the Muslim infiltration strategy, the top leader of the Mosque is usually targeted for recruitment. Regarding Taiwan, I would like to mention that Mazu is also a religion in Fujian Province. This is the closest province in Mainland China to Taiwan. What they want to tell the local Taiwanese people is that we all believe in Mazu – Chinese Mainland people and Taiwanese people – so that we are part of the same culture, the same root, the same ancestors; so you should not believe the Americans who are Christians and Catholics. One of the main thrusts here is to get the local Taiwanese people to distrust the Americans while trusting the People’s Republic of China.

JRN: How does this work in the context of Taiwan’s internal politics?

LUDE: There are two groups in Taiwan. There are the Taiwanese natives and there are the Chinese who came from the mainland when the KMT was defeated in the Chinese Civil War in 1949. The Democratic Progressive Party is mostly based on Taiwanese natives. The KMT Party largely represents Nationalist Chinese who settled in Taiwan. The Big Dang Gui part of the plan deals with manipulating the Taiwanese people and the Democratic Progressive Party. The Small Dang Gui is the plan dealing with manipulating the KMT Party.

JRN: So, the Chinese Communist Party feels the time has come to mobilize their infiltrators within the Big and Small Dang Gui groups? And they feel they have the strength within the two Dang Gui’s to take control of the Taiwan?

LUDE: First thing, we should explain what it means to take over Taiwan. There are three aspects to this: (1) Taiwan’s military system; (2) Taiwan’s police system; and (3) Taiwan’s intelligence system. The Chinese Communist Party is capable of taking over Taiwan’s military, police and intelligence systems in theory. Controlling these institutions is not the same as taking Taiwan by force. Such a takeover makes it hard for the West to interject forces. Furthermore, this situation must be placed into the context of a global war that is ongoing. Missile fire is being exchanged in the Middle East, there is trouble in the Far East, and there is a heavy fighting in Ukraine as well.  When so many places are on fire at once, from an improvisational perspective and a logistical perspective, the West probably does not have the bandwidth to prioritize Taiwan. In terms of diplomacy, China has been working on ways to leverage this situation; for example, the CCP could offer help in restraining North Korea if Washington looks the other way at the sudden integration of Taiwan into the People’s Republic. They could also offer to curb Russia’s westward advance in Europe. We must also remember that this Taiwan plan has an end date, which is November. This is what our internal intelligence sources say. There could be serious protests in Taiwan if the plan unfolds, and there are elections in the United States – in November. Furthermore, you have growing isolationism in the United States. China can use this situation.

JRN: Later this year the U.S. is planning to move five aircraft carriers, along with French and British aircraft carriers to the Far East. This is the biggest concentration of carriers in many years. Might such a deployment have something to do with this CCP operation to take control of Taiwan?  

LUDE: I believe that America does have intelligence regarding this plan against Taiwan. However, from a big-picture perspective, Taiwan is just one position and is part of a much bigger strategic situation. The Asia-Pacific is very large, stretching from Japan in the north to the south of Asia. And the purpose of threatening Taiwan, from the CCP’s perspective, is either to take Taiwan or to create a situation for sinking U.S. aircraft carriers. The CCP would like to hunt down American aircraft carriers, especially. The CCP’s most important strategic goal is not so much to take Taiwan, but to make headway against the U.S.

JRN: Is the CCP intentionally laying a trap for U.S. aircraft carriers?

LUDE: Yes, exactly. One of the CCP’s strategies is to make a trap for American aircraft carriers.

JRN: And they are willing to take on several aircraft carriers at once?

LUDE: The Chinese People’s Liberation Army/Navy is setting a trap in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea. They have laid underwater traps for ships and submarines that can hook onto the propeller, so that these vessels cannot leave the area. They want to attract aircraft carriers to those regions and they want to employ their own submarines as well.

JRN: Are there simultaneous plans for provocations in Korea? Or in the waters of Japan?

LUDE: I have no specific information concerning provocations involving Korea or Japan; however, logically it makes sense that something may happen around Korea or Japan. Our intelligence says there will be a trap in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea; therefore, the warning is that carriers should be careful about operating in those areas; therefore, military provocations could occur that force the U.S. to enter other areas as well. There might even be landings in certain islands.

JRN: In the Senkaku Islands, which are Japanese territory?

LUDE: This correlates with the plan against Taiwan we have been talking about. These small Japanese islands are located northeast of Taiwan, plus there is the U.S. base at Okinawa which could be involved. Anything that happens to these island positions or threatens the U.S. base at Okinawa could cause U.S. aircraft carriers to be deployed and could be used to set the trap.

JRN: That makes sense. What does China hope to accomplish by sinking a U.S. aircraft carrier?

LUDE: The CCP is preparing for war. Luring U.S. aircraft carriers is not just a trap. There is a wider war in prospect. Why? It is very clear to the world right now that China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, are allies. This is the Axis of Evil. This should be clear to the Western world. The leaders of the CCP think that a war with the Western world is inevitable. Therefore, everything is about preparing for the Big War. In the recorded Guangdong military-civil meeting in May 2022, we see how everything is being prepared for a strategic victory. [The translator added his own comment that China is sending recruits from its southern fronts to the coastal provinces.]

JRN: Presently, Americans are discussing the issue of President Biden’s senility. Many are questioning his qualifications for a second term. What does the CCP leadership think of Biden? Are they hoping to take advantage of Biden’s cognitive deficits?

LUDE: I do not have intelligence on this. I do know that when Biden became president the CCP senior leadership saw Joe Biden as one of their assets. However, what they are seeing right now – in financial and military spheres – is that Biden is going against the Chinese Communist Party, which is a big surprise for them. In fact, they are very surprised at Washington’s latest moves. If I could add another point to the previous topic: Why does the CCP leadership place such a priority on attacking aircraft carriers? Obviously, you cannot win a global war from one attack. They want to create a negotiation factor. Look at what the CCP did in the Korea War, in 1950, for example. They sent thousands of troops to attack the American forces, and these troops froze to death. They showed the West that they were willing to sacrifice lives, so that the Americans would be deterred from further military operations in that direction. If you think of the Hamas-Israel war, you must ask what was motivation to start this war? This is something called terrorism. In your last article you had this quote from Lenin where he said that terrorism was required to get anywhere. Terrorism is one of the key concepts for the CCP.  

JRN: If I understand correctly, the CCP is disappointed with its American friends, especially with Joe Biden. Is this disappointment the reason for China’s willingness to provoke a war?

LUDE: This is not just about disappointment with the West’s leadership. There is a political perspective and there is a historical perspective involved here. Since the West allowed China, under the CCP government, to join the WTO and to play by the same rules, the CCP owes the West a great deal. If you join the Big Family, you should pay something back. But they do not want to show any gratitude. They have their one belt, one road initiative. They want to use the money they have gained to becoming dominant in places like South America, for example. And also, they want greater influence in the Middle East. They want to be dominant in various regions. On top of that, they are in deep trouble economically, especially inside China. Their plan is to use pressure outside of China, in other countries, to solve their domestic problems.

JRN: What about India? Does the CCP leadership think that India could make trouble for them? How do they view India in all this?

LUDE: India is not seen as a big threat by the CCP leaders, because of India’s limited organizational capabilities. China only respects the power of Russia and North Korea and Iran. [The translator observed that the Chinese communists look down on India. They also think India cannot be a real ally with China.]

JRN: If the Chinese leaders have begun an operation to take Taiwan ending in November, and the operation involves a provocation, does this mean we can expect a war to start by November?

LUDE: The timeline depends on global factors, the first being the war in Ukraine and the situation with Poland. Russia is going to put more pressure there to force NATO to intervene. They also want to escalate the situation in the Middle East with Iran, so that we will have to spend resources there. The third one is North Korea, where they might attempt a nuclear experiment as diplomatic leverage. Then there is the progress of the subversion of Taiwan. They could cause chaos inside Taiwan. Also, they could cause chaos in the United States itself as the November elections approach.

JRN: It looks like we are headed into a serious crisis. I ask again, if this thing has been planned for a long time?

LUDE: We are looking at a plan, at long-term preparations, but the CCP leadership is making use of its opportunities as well. The hardship the CCP is trying to overcome is their economy. My recommendation to the West is to directly deter the CCP in its economy before the election. Their economy could be crushed. China does not have the financial means to fund the military operations of Russia, to fund the military operations of Syria, or fund the nuclear experiment in North Korea at the same time as an operation against Taiwan.

JRN: We are coming to the end of our time, but I would love to get a progress report from you in two or three weeks. Do you expect some developments in the next month?

LUDE: There will definitely be progress within the next month, because a flier came out today from the CCP. It was about Taiwan being returned to Chinese control in the near future. The reason things may develop quickly is what I’ve learned from my connections in Guangzhou and Shanghai, which are two of the biggest economic centers in China. Many local businesses are at risk – critical risk right now; and President Xi himself cannot wait very long to move forward with his plans because of economic pressure.   

JRN: So the CCP is being pushed to these operations because of its economy.

LUDE: Affirmative.

JRN: I want to thank you for this interview and hope to talk with you again soon.

LUDE: Thank you. I appreciate your work.

  1. The communists remind one of greyhounds chasing a mechanical rabbit. First, the rabbit isn’t real. Second, they will never quite catch up. Main thing: Chasing and, as collateral damage, destroying the world…

    1. I’m not surprised to see them in the streets like that in 2024, they are getting bolder. I can only think of them as a target, a nice bright red target that everyone should see. People need to wake up.

  3. U.S. engaged in ‘battle of ideas’ with communist China, U.S. ambassador says

    The United States is locked in a war of ideas with China, which wants to replace the American model of democracy around the world with its communist system, U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns says.

    China adopts ‘space coercion’ of U.S. as strategic weapon with plans for attacking U.S. satellites

    China’s military has adopted a new military strategy for a future conflict with the United States that calls for “space coercion” as an element of deterrence, according to a new U.S. Air Force think tank report.

  4. “The CCP has been infiltrating temples and religious communities.” – Mr. Wang of Lude Media

    Trevor Loudon explains how infiltrated the Catholic Church is and what this means. Then he tells us about the collaboration between the German communist party, Die Linke, and Bernie Sanders. Finally, he’s talking about what qualities Trump’s vice president needs to have in these upcoming hard and decisive times.

  7. Macron: “Russia Will Attack 10 More Countries” — Slovakia PM: “Zero Talk of Peace at NATO Meeting”

    27 FEBRUARY 2024

    French President Emmanuel Macron has publicly claimed Russia will attack ten more countries unless stopped in Ukraine. He said this at a conference where the Prime Minister of Slovakia revealed there is “Zero talk of peace” at the NATO Conference.

    Here is video of Macron making the claim himself:

    https://twitter.com/Sprinter99800/status/1762175111833038986?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1762175111833038986%7Ctwgr%5Ef50fb4fe167e6eba778d45e0a3d2e1a781a3dfa4%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fhalturnerradioshow.com%2Findex.php%2Fen%2Fnews-page%2Fworld%2Fmacron-russia-will-attack-10-more-countries-slovakia-pm-zero-talk-of-peace-at-nato-meeting

    Macron went on to say that several NATO countries have chosen to INDIVIDUALLY sign “Security Agreements” with Ukraine, and then he dropped a rhetorical bombshell by announcing some NATO countries may choose send their own troops into Ukraine to join the fight.

    The implications of such a move are staggering, and the reactions from Russia are just as staggering.

    The possible decision to send ground troops to Ukraine by NATO countries could be interpreted as the alliance’s direct participation in hostilities and even as a declaration of war, Konstantin Kosachev, the deputy speaker of the Federation Council, said following the statement by French President Emmanuel Macron, who stated after a meeting of European leaders in Paris that such a scenario had been discussed, but the participants failed to reach a consensus.

    “This is a point where not just NATO’s participation in the war begins (it started a long time ago), but can be interpreted as the alliance’s direct involvement in hostilities, or even as a declaration of war,” Kosachev said on his Telegram channel.

    He described the French leader’s logic as dangerous: those who deny the possibility of sending Western ground troops to the conflict zone today once denied the possibility of supplying tanks, airplanes and long-range missiles.

    “This logic is not just faulty, but dangerous and fraught with a catastrophic scenario. Which, as we can see ever more often, some Western leaders absolutely do not understand. The tactic of “slowly boiling a frog” by no means “persuades” Russia that it can accept anything, provided it is done gradually,” Kosachev said.

    He pointed out that competent Western experts knew perfectly well in the past that there was a limit to patience or a so-called red line.

    “This is exactly what happened with the expansion of NATO and the beginning of the special military operation, which became simply inevitable at a certain stage. At some point NATO thought that since the Baltic countries were in NATO, Moscow would agree to Ukraine’s role of “Anti-Russia” quite calmly. Russia refused to reconcile itself with the gradual increase of threats to its security and did its utmost to express its position to the Western countries and offer real agreements on the security architecture in the Euro-Atlantic. They turned a deaf ear to this and preferred to ‘boil the frog.’ The same will happen should NATO intervention occur in Ukraine,” Kosachev said.

    Macron told a news conference following a meeting of the European leaders that there was no consensus on officially sending ground troops to Ukraine today, but he did not rule out such a possibility in the future. He added that Western countries “intend to do whatever is necessary to prevent Russia” from gaining the upper hand in the conflict.

    KREMLIN: “Would Make Direct War Inevitable”

    The Kremlin warned on Tuesday that conflict between Russia and the U.S.-led NATO military alliance would be inevitable if European members of NATO sent troops to fight in Ukraine.

    The war in Ukraine has triggered the worst crisis in Russia’s relations with the West since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis and President Vladimir Putin has previously warned of the dangers of a direct confrontation between NATO and Russia.

    “The very fact of discussing the possibility of sending certain contingents to Ukraine from NATO countries is a very important new element,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters when asked about Macron’s remarks.

    Asked by reporters about the risks if NATO members sent their troops to fight in Ukraine, Peskov said:

    “In that case, we would need to talk not about the probability, but about the inevitability (of a direct conflict).”

    Peskov said that the West should ask themselves if such a scenario was in the interests of their countries and their peoples.

    Even talk of a confrontation between Russia and NATO – a Cold War nightmare of leaders and populations alike – indicates the dangers of escalation as the West grapples with a resurgent Russia 32 years after the 1991 fall of the Soviet Union.

    1. If Mr. Wang of Lude media is right, Russia would be pleased at a direct war. This is what Moscow and Beijing are after. They want the war to appear justifiable to their people. So they are doing everything to pressure the West, to make life difficult and to frighten them into action. This is the One Clenched Fist.

      1. There is another concerning development. Transnistria, an openly communist country after fake collapse USSR, is petitioning to be annexed by Russia.

        https://www.thedailybeast.com/vladimir-putins-allies-accused-of-plotting-russian-annexation-of-moldova

        It is now highly that Russia will accelerate the annexation of Ukraine. Odessa is the next, prime target. The “One Clenched Fist” against Europe is forming. If Russia managed to annex all of Ukraine with the helps of NATO traitors, then the next step of so-called “SMO” of Russian communists will be Baltic States, Moldova, Finland or Poland. I think Russia will first try to invade one of those NATO states to test if anyone of them dared to invoke Article 5 of NATO. However, NATO traitors will not invoke it because they fear Russian nukes. Since Article 5 is not invoked, many NATO members will be disappointed to start leaving the organization. Russian communists simply fulfilled the plan of disarming Europe and disbanding NATO. This is all hypothetical but it can be possible.

      2. I lived in the Baltics (Latvia) for 5 years and felt stress on a level I had never experienced before in my life in the weeks leading up to the invasion of Ukraine. The Latvians I knew have great faith in their NATO membership, but the Russians sneer at them as though it means nothing. They strut about Riga and its environs with a swagger, some even sporting t-shirts saying, in English, “War is Coming”.

        The Latvians are, of course, helping Putin to frame an argument for intervention. All medicines in the country are lacking documentation in Russian, all transactions in shops must open in Latvian (they have a language police to enforce this), and Russian TV and radio channels have been clamped down on since we left, isolating many old babushkas who have no other connection to their own language and customs and who do not speak Latvian. So there is a concerted effort by the Latvians to make the large Russian minority in the country feel alienated and unwelcome; this is being done to preserve Latvian culture and identity, which is understandable, but it is gift-wrapping an excuse for Putin to ride in to the rescue of the Russians there.

        I spoke to an ex-Latvian army soldier about Latvia’s chances should Russia invade and he said the country (like the other Baltic states) has no mountains, only forests, and could withstand an assault for no more than 48 hours without full NATO support. But he had great faith in NATO. I told him I was not so confident, but did not explain why. My lack of optimism about it arose from a book I read some years ago called “The Secret State”, by Peter Hennessy, which details all of the UK’s now declassified Cold War plans. In that book, it is revealed that the UK government anticipated WW3 would occur during a “transition to war” in which, among many other things, Russia would attempt to test the water with NATO by seizing a small, front-line NATO country, which they thought would probably be Denmark. Today, Denmark might readily be replaced by the Baltic states in such modelling.

        I’m very glad to be out of Latvia now and back in Northern Ireland, but now I notice people here are starting to quietly panic about WW3. I spoke to a real estate agent concerning this in recent days and he confirmed this is the case amongst well-off people, and that there is a feeling we are headed towards a singularity. He did not say if anyone is looking to start prepping for it, but one has to presume they are. But persuading them that Russia is an enemy and that Putin has ill intent towards us is a whole other ballgame.

      4. But I also think that Putin needs to be shown a clear edge. This discussion about Taurus is a hypocritical tactic by Scholz. Of course the Ukrainians need the system. As long as they are fighting against these Bolsheviks, they are not here and we have to do it ourselves. And if Ukraine loses, we can expect an additional 10 million refugees here.

      5. If we have refugees from communist countries who hate and understand the danger of communism that is a good thing. If we have refugees who come from all the jails of Latin America, that is another thing.

      6. However, we have refugees acting as spies and saboteurs for the communists. Even the most hateful anti-communist refugees can be turned into acting rogue agents if you pay them with good money.

      8. One thing that doesn’t make sense to me, and maybe you can clear this up: why would they want a direct war when Russia can’t even defeat Ukraine in a direct war? Is it that they believe a nuclear conflict will sort us out quickly?

      9. Nuclear war is one way they can win, believe it or not. Killing a carrier in a limited conflict is another way they can win. Furthermore, the West has not been preparing properly for a full scale conventional war. Overwhelmed the West on many fronts is another thought.

    2. NATO member countries are a little too late in declaring this. If they had taken a firmer stand in the beginning of Ukraine war, by closing the sky over Ukraine at least, Russia would not have the guts to attack. But now Russia is far more ready to escalate than ever before.

  8. Taiwan and China have been partners for decades. They play the US off for concessions and foreign aid. I attended college with the nephew of a CCP industrial general. The student said that Paramount Leader, Deng Xiaoping’s son and the son of Taiwan’s president at the time, were close friends who flew back and forth between China and Taiwan to visit each other quite frequently. Besides, Taiwan is US Territory as the US never did hand over administration to a local government after bugging out. Under international law, The United States remains the occupying force.

    1. Ha ha ha ha ha! Your lies are so open that they are laughable.

      Years ago I talked with a CCP delegation to a technical conference who repeated the same sort of lies. I then asked, “Have you talked to anyone from Taiwan?” Of course, the answer was “No.” “Well, I have …” and I preceded to tell them what the Taiwanese people thought. The next year and following the CCP didn’t send a delegation to that technical conference.

      1. I am trashing this nonsense from THE. There are plenty of communist lies in the media. This platform cannot possibly hold that vast mountain of untruth and halftruth they continually spew.

    2. Taiwan is not U.S. territory. It became the territory of Nationalist China at the end of WW2. The Chinese Government of the KMT retreated troops there at the end of the Chinese Civil War. There are no U.S. troops in Taiwan, and there were no U.S. troops there during the entire Cold War.

      1. An acquaintance of mine and Torsten Mann, a book author, is currently in the Philippines and wrote me this email:
        What we are not being told is that China is massively targeting the Philippines and everything is getting worse and worse here. The Philippines are still standing in the way of the conquest of Taiwan.

  9. Apparently, the war in Taiwan will likely create a logistics crisis against Japan and South Korea. I suspect that China will create another “Houthi” event in Far East Asia to cripple the US military in Japan and South Korea along with economies of Japan and South Korea. Trevor Loudon stated that the acquisition of Taiwan by China will mean that the PLA will have an unstoppable blue water navy.

    I still think Biden is the asset of the communists but he has to pretend to be against the communists at this moment to extract monetary concessions. Biden family is infamous for extracting bribes from anyone like his family dealings with Ukraine. I disagreed with Mr Lude that Biden is going against China. Biden merely pressured China to give him more money or potentiallly help Biden to win the elections through rigging again!

    1. It’s difficult to tell what is going on, because people are not easy to control when they have options. Many analysts think that everyone in politics is following someone’s orders. Try to order people around in life and see how far it gets you. It only works if you can punish them immediately. And sometimes it doesn’t even work then.

  10. Well, it looks as if Dr. Wang has answered my question that I’ve asked for years, more frequently recently—how long can they wait until conditions are just right? Well, before November this year, probably July or August. They know for a certainty that patriots in this country will not, that is NOT, register their arms nor disarm willingly, not even when ordered by the government. Maybe they could get that to happen in a generation or two, but neither China nor Soviet Union have that time. So like in the hide-and-seek game, “ready or not, here I come”.

    I’ve been watching what goes on in China. I’ve seen the poverty in the villages. I see the youth rebelling against the system, so far nonviolently. I just don’t see how the CCP can hold society together for much longer, seeing as they are less than 10% of the population. That is, unless they do something big, like take down the U.S., and that fairly soon. How soon? Dr. Wang’s sources have finally given a time.

    1. Trying to organize and provoke a world war, with allies who may or may not be ready or willing, with domestic problems getting in the way, and agents in the enemy country who begin to act disloyally. Who knows what problems they have had to navigate. I only hope they will call off the whole thing this year as they did in 2022. I think the Ukraine War has been a big delaying factor. Now that Ukraine is running out of ammunition, the likelihood of a widened war appears.

      1. Is the CCP organizing and provoking a world war, or is the ultimate plan found in Moscow?

        As for the timing, when will they have a better time than this year? NATO has largely run out of war supplies. It takes time to tool up and get production going to replace what was used up. Both Russia and China are facing population implosions, China’s is worse than Russia’s, if they wait, how long will it be before they just don’t have the manpower for their militaries?

        I liken an attack this year to a hail Mary pass from the end zone, but what options do they have? If they don’t attack this year, will they face like the wedding where “If there’s any objection, speak up now or forever hold your peace”? I too would prefer it that they don’t attack this year, or for that matter any year, but that decision is not mine to make. From Chi Haotian’s speech, it looks as if the decision to attack has already been made, the only question is when? When would be a better time than this year? Why?

        As for the Ukrainian war, Moscow may just stop the pretense and use their short to medium range nukes to finish the war. If they do that, they will use their strategic nukes against the U.S. and other NATO countries at the same time. They have the nukes, why wouldn’t they use them?

  11. Dear Jeff, can’t you ban these Unz, RT, Reese, Rense, Sputnik, KnowMore, et al propagandists? I know WordPress can probably reveal IP addresses, but maybe you are letting it go through so we can see how they think. Anyway, just wanted to say how much I enjoy your prolific work and the discussions with Alex as well (especially the last several weeks). Week after week of 3 hour long informative discussions that always grab my interest, and which I always manage to find time for. I’ve learned a lot from these interviews and started visiting Alex’s site too. Thank you Jeff.

      2. Yes. Waiting on trolls to delete them is time consuming. But I think the trolls lose more time because I just hit delete. They actually write some long posts that I do not even read when I see who has posted them.

      6. There used to be, but the program changed and I have not figured out how to do this it. If they motivate me enough I will. Right now I am on a very fast hamster wheel.

  12. Quietman, interesting what you are saying about Latvia, i spend there a couple of months as well (in Riga). The Woman who rented me the apartment is russian and we had interesting conversations. First of all she was aware that the elites in Moscow are still comunists, she told me that we, in the west, absolutley have a false idea of what is really going on in Russia. She told me as well that it is only a question of time that Russia will attack the Baltics (“because if the communists say it, they will do it”). She told me also that she was not expecting a better treatment than the Latvians because under the communists there is not a better treatment for anyone, everyone is equal. She does not understand the latvian government who started the discrimination of the russian minority ( in Riga 40-50% of the population is russian) because (and that’s important) the russians were fighting together with the Latvians against the communists (it was interesting because she was always refering to them not with the word Russians, but Soviets or Communists). She told me that no one of the Russians in Latvia would like to return to Russia, it is as going back to a third world country (“Cross the Border and you will see immediatley the difference”, only this clown of Carlson is convinced by the opposite)

    One day a russian friend arrived from ST. Petersburg, she left Russia and she told me that Russia is preparing for a war, many Russians are leaving the country, but they are always disciminated, no one gives them a job or an apartment, because they are Russians”.

    In the coming months i will return to the Baltics, let’s see how the situation there is developing

    1. Please, make sure, Giacomo, you keep us all updated about what’s going on there! Be safe!

    2. It depends on the Russians you mingle with in Riga. Some are anti-Putin, some are pro-Putin (and very anti-US). But the Latvian army guy I spoke to was adamant that communism is alive and well in Belarus, etc., and some Russians in Latvia would agree. It’s a shame the Lats are doing their best to alienate them.

  13. Thank you for the interview. I continue to be concerned for smaller communities (1K-10K’s) and rural areas. There has been a false assurance message sent out that big cities will be the main issue. Here is an article from yest:

    https://freebeacon.com/national-security/how-the-border-crisis-hit-a-small-wisconsin-town/

    Also, I was wondering about your opinion on the credibility of this profile. Is this truly happening now? All those ghost cities make more sense, if so. More rural areas here need to become more watchful and wise.

    https://twitter.com/songpinganq/status/1762798294164713520

    1. The rural and small town areas are where those who dislike leftism live. If Stalin starved those area to favor the cities in Russia, an American Stalin will dump illegal aliens in them. No doubt.

      2. Many people imagine they can survive as a small unit. Under the current climate, they cannot. We survive as a country or we do not survive at all; for war is between countries. That means we need America to survive as a nation, and we need to preserve OUR continental power. This is the basis of our personal security and liberty. We lose that and we are under the thumb of our foreign enemies. We also have to understand that many groups in America have been infiltrated by foreign agents. Everyone needs to know that foreign agents are enemies. They are a threat that must be dealt with. And we have not dealt with it. There is too much treason in our country, and too much dreamy nonsense about ideals that are not ideal at all — like an open border, like Marxists teaching in our schools and colleges, like cutting off Ukraine of ammunition which we can send on the cheap (the least expensive thing we could do to defend our country). But Americans have this fantasy that our security and safety is somehow guaranteed. We have let all that go now.

    2. That’s possible and even likely. There are more houses in China then people. And before you think, “maybe in prep for nuclear war,” NO. Vast majority are uninhabitable and were created for the sole purpose of being sold, bought, and sold again, in a market the primitive Chinese thought could only go up. Price controls aided and abetted this process. Local CCP governments used it as a great way to pump their GDP numbers, which in turn was used by the national CCP to pump their numbers.

      2. The Chinese are not primitive. Communism has restricted their options for investment. The Ponzi scam of the real estate market was one of the few places where they could invest with a hope of returns, a hope that has been yanked out from under them.

  14. The Republican party in Michigan has ousted GOP chair Christina Karamo. I know from my sister who was a precinct delegate and still receives emails that it was a nasty, underhanded coup and many delegates are very confused. Christina, as GOP chair, was trying to get WEF out of her backyard, as they have a headquarters in Detroit. She has true Christian, conservative values and yet this group of Republicans wanted her out. Pete Hoekstra, the new GOP chair, is  a WEF shill. China CCP took over California and they are now taking over Michigan. And, guess who is endorsing Pete Hoekstra? None other than Donald Trump. Trevor Loudon said that Trump can’t fix things alone that only God can help well, we are down to just God. It’s time to move to Iceland.

      1. I think Trump is part of the danger. Part of the scissors strategy. But I can’t say that to the Trump supporters.

  15. A company near where I live just let go of around 100 illegals without papers. These people showed up everyday and worked. They were employed because the locals who should be working in these positions don’t last more than a couple of weeks because of failed drug tests. The plant manager told h.r. that the repercussions of this on the company are going to be hard felt. Everyday in every way this country is being destroyed by Communist.

    1. This is another very real aspect of the problem. Americans use drugs and are often unwilling to put in a full day’s work. Immigrants are often the hardest working people. Do this must be taken into account. A large percentage of Americans have themselves become lazy and entitled. Socialism and the Cloward-Piven strategy has made Americans dependent on government goodies.

  16. Jean Robin wrote a pretty good book called “France, a colony of communist China’. He talks about the Communist infiltration in France. I am confused. Macron talks about sending French Troops into Ukraine. Is Macron waking up or is it a head fake or what?

    1. There is no chance of France sending troops and Macron knows it. All he has to do is send ammunition. Why them talk of troops? Perhaps the goal is to scare everyone into abandoning Ukraine; for the simple solution is never mentioned. Only a solution that makes people want to get done with NATO altogether.

      1. I think Macaroon plans to draft illegal aliens into the French Foreign Legion in order to crack down on French farmers who dump cow manure all over town in protest of French regulations order them to terminate all the cows.

      2. That was my first thought when I heard about Macron’s comments. Macron of all people? Now, after 2 years of dragging their feet on sending weapons to Ukraine? And how would those NATO troops be armed? They would still face the same shortage of ammunition the Ukrainians are facing right now since the West hasn’t significantly increased production capacity. And this is coming from the same France that is very friendly with China, the same France that saw no issue with selling advanced weapons to Russia before the full-scale invasion started. Given Macron’s background, going from 0 to 180 on Ukraine seems very suspicious. The other possibility is that he is genuinely scared, which makes one wonder what intelligence reports he’s been getting.

        Of course, as a negotiating tactic, it’s better to let Russia think that no option is off the table as far as NATO is concerned. As Maj. Gen. Rupert Jones noted in the linked video by BRCC, it’s better not to tip your hand and instead let the other side keep guessing about what you will do. But this can be done in closed meetings with Russian officials. Floating the idea of NATO troops publicly without laying the proper groundwork for public discussion only alarms people and fuels the anti-Ukraine side. The leaders of large European countries like UK, France, Germany have never even voiced the idea that Russia is a threat to Europe beyond just Ukraine, so any talk of troops there will be portrayed by Russian propaganda as crazy escalation talk from war-hungry NATO. And conveniently at the same time we have the leaked info about Russia’s criteria for using tactical nukes, which they would use in case of enemy incursion on Russian territory. And Putin has been saying for 2+ years that Ukrainians are Russians and that Ukraine is really Russian territory artificially divided to form a fake state. So NATO troops in Ukraine would meet Russia’s criteria for the deployment of tactical nukes. Put these two news items together and it’s clear that this is the same old tactic of making Westerners fear “escalation” of the war so that they will back off supporting Ukraine. Just in time for the 2024 election cycle. Because none of the previous “red lines“ about sending weapons to Ukraine worked, Russia has to set up a new “red line” and scare people into believing that NATO is about to cross it and unleash nuclear Armageddon. And all this time, the West’s focus is distracted from doing the easy thing and ramping up arms production to supply Ukraine. As Maj. Gen. Jones noted, fear of escalation in 2022 led to months long delays in supplying Ukraine which dampened the momentum of the UAF and gave the Russians enough time to build defenses to stop Ukraine’s counter-attack in 2023.

        Knowing how much thought and planning Russia and China put into the idea of a final nuclear war against America, it is unlikely that any real plans about their nuclear doctrines will be allowed to leak. The suggestion that Russia fears invasion by China is a dead giveaway, it’s bait for conservatives who think Russia is the great white nationalist hope for mankind.

  17. FT: Leaked files reveal Russian military’s criteria for nuclear strike
    Elsa Court, The Kyiv Independent news desk

    https://news.yahoo.com/ft-leaked-files-reveal-russian-072838412.html

    Leaked military documents outline Russia’s doctrine for tactical nuclear weapons use, including the minimum criteria for using tactical nuclear weapons, the Financial Times (FT) reported on Feb. 28.

    Russia’s tactical nuclear weapons are designed for use on the battlefield in Europe and Asia, and have a more limited range compared to strategic nuclear weapons, which could reach the U.S.

    The 29 Russian military files, which date from between 2008 and 2014, indicate a threshold “lower than Russia has ever publicly admitted, according to experts who reviewed and verified the documents,” the FT said.

    The criteria range “from an enemy incursion on Russian territory to more specific triggers, such as the destruction of 20% of Russia’s strategic ballistic missile submarines,” the FT said.

    The destruction of three or more large surface warships, three airfields, 30% of its nuclear-powered attack submarines, or a “simultaneous hit on main and reserve coastal command centers” are also listed as potential conditions for a nuclear strike.

    The documents also indicate a distrust of China, despite growing ties between Moscow and Beijing. Training materials indicate that Russia’s eastern military district conducted exercises that envisaged a hypothetical attack by China.

    Moscow may fear that Beijing could take advantage of its military focus toward the West, and launch an attack across the border to gain territory in Russia’s Far East, the FT said.

    The FT highlighted that Russia continues to conduct military exercises near China, holding exercises in June and November 2023 in regions bordering China using nuclear-capable missiles.

    William Alberque, director of strategy, technology, and arms control at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, told the FT that Russia likely has a higher threshold for using tactical nuclear weapons against Ukraine due to fears it would likely “escalate the conflict and lead to direct intervention by the U.S. or U.K.”

      1. Anything that disproves the global alliance of Russian communists and Chinese communists is purely crap. I suspect that the expired assets of Russian/Chinese communists are cooking up this story or fantasy of “Russia-China rivalry” to win some favors from their communist sponsors. It reminds me when Bezemov talked about how Russians will dispose of any asset that outlives its usefulness.

        The type of people, who are pushing narrative of China-Russia rivalry, are Kissinger-type assets. They are outliving their usefulness for the global communists, so they try to salvage some influences and money here.

        We are now in the “One-Clenched Fist” endgame period now.

    2. The Russian “leaked document” details of when to use nukes are very strange, and unlike anything in past Soviet and Russian military writings. It’s just not credible.

    3. I like what he says about the industrial base. Stupidly, we didn’t seem to keep nearly enough of that here, which is most worrisome.

  19. It appears China is in a race: take Taiwan before their economy collapses, and there is a very real risk of that collapse. 50% unemployment in the youth. New estimates (quickly censored) by a Chinese economist of 945 million people now loving in poverty. The inability of China to stop major real estate businesses from collapsing. The life savings of the middle class simultaneously being destroyed by that collapse. Then the stock market has been routing, and the only reason it hasn’t gone to zero is because China stepped in and stopped large numbers of people… from even selling. But if you can’t get your money out of the stock market then it’s the same as if it had dropped in value to zero.

    Considering this is made public, Taiwan is likely aware of it. If they’re aware of it, I am sure the patriotic majority of Taiwan will ensure proper counter measures are in place.

    Think of Russia’s bungling of Ukraine. China will bungle this too… or that is my hope.

  20. I just realized that Moldova is not part of NATO and currently has no plan to join NATO to the problem in Transnistria.

    Transnistria just formally announced to request the Russian military assistance.

    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/feb/29/transnistria-moldova-breakaway-region-russia-protection-appeal

    This is clearly a sign that Russia will not only take over Odessa in Ukraine but also aims the next annexation of Moldova. Russia or China will always plan events that can achieve multiple goals at once. Moldova seems to be a bonus during the Ukraine War for the Russian communists.

    1. It is difficult for a Russian forces to reach Moldova or Transnistria. They will have to infiltrate soldiers by the sea and air routes and will be blocked by Ukrainian missile fire.

      1. Yes, my scenario here only occurs when Russian forces take over Odessa due to the lack of Ukrainian troops and acts of NATO traitors. If Russia plans the military takeover Europe, then Moldova is probably the most likely target. This is a plausible hypothesis since we all know Russia wants to take over all of Ukraine, and NATO traitors are helping Russia to achieve it.

        This is something that we should keep in minds when tracking what the Russian communists and EU Soviets are planning.

      1. Yes, and the Russians have a vast stockpile of weapons and ammunition in Transnistria. In their initial 2022 invasion they were trying to reach Transnistria overland, but they were stopped at Nikolaev and driven back across the Dnipro River.

  21. Jeff :

    Sorry for not responding sooner. I’ve been busy with work.

    Here is some information I’ve been able to gather. The cult that Tulsi Gabbard grew up in ( The Science of Identity Foundation ) is an offshoot of the Hare Krishna movement. Chris Butler – the leader – is the authoritarian leader of the cult.

    See attachments for links to articles about it.

    To me anyone who is a member of a cult, or New Age or Freemasonry is suspect. And would have to be proven to be trustworthy. In all cases they pledge their loyalty to their group and not to Judeo-Christian morality or to their country or the general community.

    https://www.hawaiifreepress.com/Articles-Main/ID/20858/Gabbard-Political-Career-Begins-in-Cult-School

    https://hawaiifreepress.com/Articles-Main/ID/12083/Tulsi-Gabbard-Office-Manager-tied-to-Chris-Butler-Cult

    https://www.meanwhileinhawaii.org/home/butlers-web-part-2-who-is-gabbards-guru

    As far as I can gather, Chris Butler’s father was an actual Communist.

    I hope Tulsi is not Trump’s running mate. But I don’t think she is on the short list. I’m not so worried that she is a hypnotized Manchurian candidate ( although that is possible ). But that she would follow the general views of Chris Butler ( her guru dev , as she says ). And those views are decidedly very left wing.

    Hope this not off topic for this essay.

  23. Does anyone monitor sites like this? Pro Putin, pro Russia propaganda, anti Ukraine, via “Right wing conservative and so called independent journalists”?

    More pro Russia propaganda from Clayton Morris and Douglas Macgregor. Begins at the 34:07 mark. Ends about the 42-minute mark. One can listen to this conversation and pick out points that may indeed be true however, it is mixed in with the pro Russia “don’t poke the Bear” narrative via Morris’ own words.

    https://www.youtube.com/live/4UuFDsxmXrA?si=rfBMThZQyIuvnPNE

    1. Or this guy, former Navy “intelligence” guy during his stint in the military…Patrick Lancaster? I’ve called him out on his channel a couple times and he wanted me to chat on Telegram however I refused as he’s tied into and with the Russian government and I would not take the bait. I replied on his YT channel and he would never respond. Vice and other media have reported that he’s a Russian asset regarging his so called “independent” reporting. Many of his reports of Ukraine army attacks on Russian civilians have been proven to be staged courtesy Russian government controlled media.

      https://youtu.be/oSTRMWToYBc?si=YM0SXQPAQO-Ma6e1

      Clayton Morris and Andrew Napolitano have Lancaster on their YT channels all the time (as well as the pedophile S. Ritter and Douglas Macgregor) as so called “experts”.

      I challenge their reporting on their channels a lot but with the exception of Lancaster, a month ago, my own attempts to debunk their claims goes unanswered.

      1. I would never use Telegram for anything. Please don’t ever chat with them on Telegram. It’s a control and tracking platform. It can be used to do anything or track anything. Macgregor is paid opposition, I’m waiting for him to say Ukraine lost a thousand tanks in a minefield, or something that stupid. He’s in the same class as Tucker. And we’ve called out Tucker long before Putin became allergic to short tables on this site, it appears his allergies went away with Tucker, but he was allergic to Macron.

      2. It has been remarked that Putin was frightened by COVID, and feared infection. He remained isolated throughout, and in February 2022 he was still being careful when his top officials remained on the other side of the room from him.

      3. What about using Telegram to access and read Ukrainian sites, as well as seeing what Russian propaganda channels are saying? Do you think there is harm in that?

      4. Morris had me on his show once. I made some statements about Russia that he was none too pleased about. Their bread and butter is maligning U.S. institutions. This puts them in the business of blaming American first. In that sense they are America firsters.

      5. I always comment they are Pro Putin, Pro Russia every time they post a video that’s anti-Ukraine. As I said earlier, there is never a reply to refute my statements.
        Most comments are simply “atta-boys” from the typical conservative bloc voter who watches Faux News 24/7 and never questions anything or anyone.
