Just a thought...

 

Observers such as Michael Yon have noted that among the illegal aliens streaming northward through the Darien Gap towards the USA, there are a significant proportion of Chinese.

Many of them are younger men "of military age".  Video and photographs appear to confirm that.

Others have already speculated that they may include Chinese intelligence agents;  but I fear something more.  If I were China... and I regarded the United States as an enemy... and I expected that a "hot" war might erupt in the Pacific in the not too distant future... wouldn't I try to get as many Special Forces operators as possible into my prospective enemy's territory before the outbreak of hostilities?

They wouldn't have to be well equipped.  Given the sheer volume of international trade entering the USA every day, it would not be difficult to smuggle their arms and equipment into the country through various channels.  For that matter, much of it could be bought locally.  It's not like China is short of US dollars - we pay them billions every week (literally) to buy goods we import from them.

At any rate, that's the thought that comes to my mind when I see so many Chinese men "of military age" seeking to illegally enter the USA.

What say you, readers?

I wish I could fault your logic, but I cannot.

“If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. If sovereign and subject are in accord, put division between them. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected .”
― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

Sounds like insurance troops inside the USA in case the bought Politicians are unable to finish the job.

You might want to look at a movie "Dragon Day" about how the USA was sold out and American Federal Police were placing correction bands on American wrists.

Divemedic said...

That would be a nightmare for American citizens of Chinese descent. If there were ever a significant amount of attacks by Chinese agents on American soil, many people who appear Asian would be shot on sight.

that is what I would do. infiltrate and have hundreds of small cells. they could cripple infrastructure fast and easy and we would be screwed

The President is compromised by China. The military is compromised by China. The House and the Senate members are compromised
by China. Our educational system and Universities are compromised by China. Our corporations are compromised by China.
Our news organizations and media are compromised by China.
What was the question?

LtFuzz said...

I think "your thinking" is right on. People are not suspicious enough of the CCP and their patience and ability to put off immediate satisfaction for long-term gain.

Aesop said...

It's always going to be "young men of military age".

They're the ones who can pick up and go.
Old women of housewife age are stuck home with the kids.
And young women are prey, not predators.
As ever.

There's a reason the squaws weren't the ones out looking for deer and buffalo, and why there's no tales of fur-trapping mountain women.

So there's a lot less here than meets the eye.

Not that China or anybody else isn't up to nefarious deeds 24/7/365, but even twenty years ago, the groups we were catching on the border were 20 men to every 1 woman who tried.

Papa or big brother heads out to get work to send money back to the family.

Since ever.

I have no doubt. It goes hand in hand with the US allowing Fufeng Group to purchase a large swath of land within 20 miles of Grand Forks AFB. A quick Google search will show what the base does.

Damn I wish said...

Hate to say this but I pretty well agree with you on this. It makes a while lot of sense.

I find myself wondering - what with train derailments, food processing facilities being destroyed by fire, attacks on electrical substations - is there an active campaign of sabotage going on here and not by home-grown malcontents?

1chota said...

Almost nobody mentions the sea routes. Our government entities have openly stated that they are unable to inspect anywhere near half of the ships that come into our shores, especially container ships.

MNW said...

I had thought that when I read a report for Yon a month or so ago.

That make the current, agressive, post SCOTUS gun-control/civilian disarmament campaign even morr treturious aneven treasonious

SiGraybeard said...

Considering how weak we look to the rest of the world, I wouldn't be surprised if they're here operating now. Working out which food plants to take out, which rail systems to sabotage, everything. That might be going on around us.

Forget about China for the moment. How many Iranians on the so-called watch list have been picked up in the country? How many are "getaways?" Does anyone in charge strike anyone as being competent?

Peace through strength works. Animal predators pick off the stragglers or the ones who look weak, not the strongest looking members of the pack. It carries over to humans.

Peteforester said...

'Been saying this for MANY years!

...The people "leading" our country are bent on DESTROYING IT!

Funny; when Trump asked for $15B to build a border wall he was told it was too expensive. Where are we at in Ukraine now; somewhere around $200B???...

NO ONE on EITHER SIDE is doing anything about this... It's time for We, The People to push back...

Anonymous said...

With Brandon and others in his admin being owned by the CCP, I'd say this was very likely. Keep an eye on any Chinese in your AO. Likely we will have to clean up this mess ourselves.

Anonymous said...

The same could be said about those coming from the middle east. They could be sent by Iran, or just simply some muslim terrorist organization. Of couse, many of those from the middle east look similar enough to those from South American countries to blend in better than the Asians.

boron said...

How much did you say they're paying the pResident to keep the door open?

Xoph said...

How do you want to leave your enemy? Does China want the USA to burn to cinders, or would they consider a regime change sufficient?

If 60% voted for Trump (which I think is low) and another 10% were useful idiots that would leave 30% of the US as a problem, a number I think is high. Much of that 30% is irrelevant (welfare recipients and the like). Given good intelligence and a good target list a few thousand could certainly spark a civil war and even perform a significant number of assassinations during the chaos.

In US war games the US frequently initiates nukes first. I would think avoiding nukes to be high on the to do list. Easiest way to invade Taiwan is to have the US internally focused and consumed.

Don't forget the flood of Spanish speaking young men. Cartel members, mercenaries? The racial tensions among Americans (as noted by Scott Adams). Plenty of fuel once the fire is lit.

First start a banking crisis. No one can buy gas or groceries if the economy is brought to a screeching halt. Throw in some power outages, some selective shootings and let the games begin.

I used to do some serious gun buying from a major US sporting goods chain as a collector. The chief gun salesman at the local store told me that he was getting a large number of Chinese students buying AR-15s and handguns, all configured the same way, and that other stores in the region(Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana) were reporting the same thing. He had let corporate know, but they just wanted the sales, and I tried to pass on the info to a few people I knew in the intel community, to no avail.
I haven't been in any of the stores in a few years, since I got in trouble with my last client over missing an important meeting because a transaction took 3 hours, so I don't know if this activity is still going on.

The logistics are possible.
The targets are certainly available.

But with today's surveillance capabilities, be tough in most places to hide the ethnicity.

Anonymous said...

Agreed. And don't forget that they are the most likely to cause problems in any country, so China is getting rid of a potential problem, which is a win for them, especially since their one child policy means many of them won't be able to marry in China.
And yes, this influx will cause problems for Asians in the US the same way the influx of Hispanics causes problems for those already here.

Hey Booms said...

There was a video clip posted that suggested that the 'spy' balloon was actually broadcasting instructions to sleeper cells. Thanks Brandon, you dumb f%&#.

Anonymous said...

It's not just the Chinese MAMs, Venezuela is contributing multiple brigades worth of MAMs too. The narco-terrorists are the logpac for what? At least 10 brigades worth of light infantry. Just infantry, no need to have support elements besides heavy weapons when it happens. So our BCTs have only 20-30% shooters and with the numbers already in the US we'd have a big, big problem. It is not going away.

Genji said...

If you were China faced with an imploding American Empire ruled by insane folk with a death wish, what would *you* do?

Genji said...

That Being Said (™) Y'all really are a bunch of Barca Lounger Boomer Fantasists.

Still obsessed with Muh Red China when 99.99999% of your problems international *and* domestic could be solved by cleaning house AT HOME and staying the #%^& AT HOME as in staying the @#$%ing ^&*# out of other countries' and peoples' businesses and spheres of interests.

But that's too much of a conceptual leap... You're all Universalists... just your side of the Universalist Coin believes in putting the naughty bits where biology intended them to go and the Evil Woke don't.

I investigated Chinese smuggling cases for a good number of years during the 90s, and we thought exactly the same thing; can some be spies.

I can’t imagine China passing up the opportunity to infiltrate America with trained operatives. In fact it makes no sense not to. Unfortunately this smuggling has gone on for over twenty years, so there are many, many Chinese illegal aliens living in America.

1chota said...

Immigration Investigators have been dealing with Chinese smuggling for decades. the chinks like to play the long game.

MNW said...

It would, and it would also be a propaganda tool for the CCP

"See the Americans hate you..."

MNW said...

In the case of China cultural norms and the one child policy means that China has a lopsided number if men.

That said, it is a possiblity.

Anonymous said...

CCP propaganda has become the stuff of legends.
About a month ago elements of the Chinese people were protesting for western style 'democracy' (why?). The protesters suffered as is usually the case. A lovely young Chinese woman gave plea to western peoples on an apparently smuggled tape(?) to not forget them in their struggles for democracy & freedom. News flash lovely young (crying) Chinese woman: how can we not forget you when we never thought of you in the first place?
Actually another brick for the propagandists to use to build that wall that says; see' they don't care about us at all.
Hate to be Mr. Doom&Gloom but we are not going to win this one when it comes around.

Imagine for a moment that the CCP powers that be got in a big room with all the movers & shakers in every sector and asked: how can we kill a LOT of americans & destroy huge swaths of their infrastructure without them noticing?
Its easy if you try.

TechieDude said...

I don't know. It's a great strategic plan.

But China has a huge population of military age males thanks to the one child policy. By far the bulk of them live out in the sticks with zero hope of bettering their lives or finding a woman. It's a sellers market there for women, who can be choosy. And many get caught up in the same crap as women here - career, money, stuff - and don't want to be married.

Seems like a simpler answer. Aesops is good as well. Coming here to make money.

riverrider said...

doesn't it make you suspicious that after years of trying to convince us china is not our enemy,that they suddenly want us to be afraid of them?

Michael said...

Riverrider even though our government, deep state and it seems military are bought and paid for my China doesn't mean they cannot use distractions as needed.

The Magician often flares the right hand while the left hand is doing the trick.

Most Americans have the memory of a goldfish to what was said just YESTERDAY in the news.

If you doubt that ask some random grocery shopper about the Balloons, we had flying last week. Keep the details vague so they cannot repeat what YOU Said back at you.

Embarrassing, more often than not.

pyotr said...

Okay, "people of military age", check.

Chinese "investors" buying farm land. Which just happens to be near US strategic interests.

New reports years ago of a container load of AK rifles getting stopped at a port, while they knew at least one more had already cleared the port ...

Wondering how well one of those "farms" would serve as a staging point for special operations. Shouldn't be difficult to ship in, or acquire locally, the rest of their kit.

There was a Strategy & Tactics' war-game in the 1980s "Battle for Berlin", the battle in Berlin if the Soviets invade Germany. One scenario was "Operation Werewolf" had a large number of tourists coming just before the balloon goes up. Healthy, fit, young men. AKA "reinforcement"

I'm not paranoid. That's the delusion they are out to get you.

If you want to find out how the Soviets intend to emplace Special Forces (Speznaz) before starting a conventional war, Victor Suvorov (the pen name of Vladimir Bogdanovitch Resun) can be read here:

I have absolutely no doubt that the Chinese will have their own version of pre positioning their own Special Forces with an identical set of targets and missions.
