The CCP is at War, and Not in a "Gray Zone"
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.
Another merchant ship under the control of the Chinese Communist Party has apparently been responsible for cutting an important piece of undersea infrastructure. On this occasion, the location was close to home, in waters near a Taiwanese island. And, as has been the case as far away as the Baltic Sea, the damage was done by the vessel’s anchor to a key fiber optic cable. Sometimes, the disruption was to an energy pipeline.
National security sophisticates describe such incidents as “gray zone” actions, meaning they don’t rise to the level of actual warfare. But that is just a rationale justifying inaction on the part of the nations impacted.
In fact, these are acts of war. They are part of a military doctrine that calls for “shaping the battlefield” in preparation for hostilities and can confer a possibly decisive advantage on the perpetrating party.
In a memo on Friday, President Trump described the Chinese Communist Party’s PRC as a “foreign adversary.” He has initiated financial warfare steps aimed at ending our underwriting of this enemy. They can’t be implemented soon enough.

Thx Mr Gafney, for a Top grade, Concise, and Clearly Focused update on the Actual Situation at hand. It's incredible that these Gray Zone Maneuvers go seemingly unnoticed by Public opinion Outlets. The Other news is important too, but Crowds Out these "Battlefield Shaping" Activities.
It's as Startling as the Chinese Balloon Incursion/ 4000+ Miles Overflight surveillance of our U.S.A. ..only 2 years ago. The Frequency of these events is a very important factor. Thank you for doing this, + Thank God... That enough U.S. people woke up, and DIDN'T reinstall the Biden or Harris DEMOCRAT PARTY-Total Disaster Again.
Yes, the PRC is a foreign adversary. I'd prefer the more straight forward language "our enemy" or "our most pernicious threat world wide, perhaps excepting Islamist invasion into the West." Or perhaps "our enemy responsible for killing 100K Americans each year" Or best, "our deadly enemy whom our greedy politicians and corporations gave our entire manufacturing capability-- including all our nuclear warhead designs." Nevertheless, I'm grateful God has given America a reprieve from its ongoing collapse. That said, unless America returns to the one true God, and rejects the new paganism controlling our nation, (the corruption of which, the PRC underpins) we will be judged.
