REPORT: China Orders Massive Buildup of Military

Something is brewing in China; we just have to figure out what.

According to new reports, China has ordered a massive buildup of its military, which has not been seen in nearly a century.

The buildup of its military is now being likened to what Hitler and Nazi Germany did in the 1930s.

Get Ready

You don’t build up your military like this unless you are expecting to go to war or defend your country from an attack.

Chuck DeVore, chief national initiatives officer at the Texas Public Policy Foundation, spotted a Pentagon report that noted the significant increase in assets in China.

He stated, "China is engaging in an unprecedented military build-up that the world frankly hasn't seen since Adolf Hitler in the 1930s.

"Now the big difference there, is that he really focused on land power, which frankly is pretty easy to build up pretty quickly.

"Navies are much more difficult to build up. And we are way behind. And not only do we need to catch up, but we also need to modernize our nuclear weapons, and we need to put a lot of effort into missile defense."

He continued, "They're [China] massively building up their nuclear arsenal. We expect it to expand to at least 1,000 warheads by 2030, only five years from now. Probably going to be bigger than that.

"The Chinese Navy, not by tonnage, but by numbers is now larger than the U.S. Navy. China has something like 250 times the ship-building capacity that America does."

Among the increased arsenal of China is the addition of 50 new intercontinental ballistic missiles, which can reach the United States, giving China a total of 400 missiles that could be launched to hit the United States if they decided to attack.

The report continues to say that China’s inventory also includes a stockpile of DF-27s, which are currently capable of “evading U.S. missile defenses and targeting Guam, Hawaii, and Alaska​."

The report further stated, "The goal of CDO is to achieve what the PLA refers to as ‘mind dominance,’ which the PLA defines as the use of information to influence public opinion to affect change in a nation’s social system, likely to create an environment favorable to the PRC and reduce civilian and military resistance to PLA actions.

"The PLA probably intends to use CDO as an asymmetric capability to deter U.S. or third-party entry into a potential conflict, or as an offensive capability to shape perceptions or polarize a society."

This is clearly something Donald Trump will have to address in office and do so quickly so as not to give China an upper hand against our country.

This is what having a Democrat president for 12 of the last 16 years gets you.

Perhaps this is why Trump wanted the debt ceiling suspended, knowing he is going to have to shell out some major cash to bring our military back up to snuff.
