How many ways are there to invade or attack a nation without firing a shot? We can look at China to see a few examples.
This past week, China was in the news as the U.S. closed a Chinese “outpost” in Houston and the people from that consulate were evicted. The Chinese were hacking American institutions and stealing secret research. We don’t yet know what else was going on in that building, but the Chinese spent a day burning documents in the consulate courtyard.
EVICTED
Then there’s the Covid attack. The disease originated in Hunan China, was altered to be more infectious than it naturally was and was sent to America and other countries by human carriers.
Also, China has infiltrated our nation’s universities through Confucius Institutes.
China launched the Confucius Institute program in 2004 with the stated goal of promoting Chinese culture and language, but it has been criticized for being a Trojan horse for Chinese-state propaganda. Recently, Sweden decided to close all of its Confucius Institutes and classrooms as the country’s relationship with China further deteriorates into mutual suspicion. In the U.S., there are approximately 90 Universities that host the Confucius Institutes.
Additionally, last week The US Department of Justice on Thursday announced charges against Chinese researcher Tang Juan, 37, and three other scientists living in the US, saying that they lied about their status as members of China’s People’s Liberation Army. All were charged with visa fraud.
Tang took part in U.S. research at the University of California, Davis.
NOW, IN ANOTHER possible attempt to disrupt and weaken the U.S., strange seed packets, from China, have been received by households in Washington, Utah and Virginia. Maybe it’s nothing, but….
Residents in Washington, Utah and Virginia have received small packages of seeds in the mail. “Today we received reports of people receiving seeds in the mail from China that they did not order,” the Washington State Department of Agriculture said Friday. “The seeds are sent in packages usually stating that the contents are jewelry. Unsolicited seeds could be invasive, introduce diseases to local plants, or be harmful to livestock.”
“Invasive species wreak havoc on the environment, displace or destroy native plants and insects and severely damage crops,” the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services said in a statement Friday. In Utah, at least 40 people had received mysterious seeds, Fox 13 reported. It is unclear how many people in Virginia and Washington were mailed a package of seeds, but officials said “several.”
Agricultural Agencies have warned, do not plant the seeds. Immediately contact your State Agricultural Agency.
It’s an odd sounding thing, but I don’t put anything past the Chinese Communist Party. Think of how harmful invasive species are in the U.S. today.
Take Kudzu for instance.
KUDZU, DEVOURING AMERICA
Iguanas in the Florida Keys are invading nests, eating the eggs, and wiping out native bird and reptile species.
“CHICKEN OF THE TREES”
It’s the same with Burmese Pythons in Florida. They’re wiping out many native species, birds, reptiles, amphibians and small mammals.
It’s obvious how damaging a non-native plant or animal species can be.* So I would not be surprised to learn that China has engineered plants to run wild in America. Plants highly resistant to herbicides and designed to displace valuable food crops.
The Chinese Communist Party is bad news. Their stated goal is to dominate the world, Land, Sea, Air and also Financially. They continually push the limits of what the world community will accept. They’ve gotten away with it for many decades. None of the world’s leaders dare push back.
IT’S IMPORTANT THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP BE REELECTED. HE’S THE ONE MAN WITH THE GUTS TO STAND UP AGAINST CHINA.
* Side Story
When you start reading about invasive species, it’s crazy how many there are throughout the country. But in Florida, it’s insane, totally out of control. There are fish, mammals, plants, reptiles, birds…everything! A lot of species are edible, and free for the taking.
For instance the Capybara. “Capybaras are from about 39 to 51 inches (100 to 130 centimeters) long and about 20 inches (50 cm) tall from foot to shoulder. They tend to weigh 60 to 174 lbs. (27 to 79 kilograms), depending on gender. Females are usually a little larger than males.”
I’m seeing pulled pork here, smothered in Carolina BBQ Sauce.
If more people could get over their squeamishness, or their reluctance to try new things, they might put at least a dent in the invasion. On the other hand, things like kudzu, which is edible, may never be eradicated. Nobody wants to eat salad 24 hours a day for 100 years.
Just keep in mind, when the SHTF, there is a ready supply of food out there that not many will be willing to utilize.
