China’s ‘arsenal’ spurs warnings - - The Washington Times, America’s Newspaper: “The report provides evidence countering statements by Chinese officials, and some U.S. officials, who say China’s buildup is peaceful. ‘The Commission concluded that China is developing its military in ways that enhance its capacity to confront the United States,’ the report stated. ‘For example, China has developed the capability to wage cyber-warfare and to destroy surveillance satellites overhead as part of its tactical, asymmetrical warfare arsenal.’ On Taiwan, the report said tensions between the island nation and China produced an ‘emotionally-charged stand-off that risks armed conflict if not carefully managed by both sides.’ ‘Such a conflict could involve the United States,’ the report said. The U.S. military is ’significantly exposed to such attacks,’ because of its reliance on systems of command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, the report said.”
