The White House released the Chinese Military Power Report delayed or hidden secrets

April 15, the United States, “Washington Times” reported that the U.S. Department of Defense submitted to Congress the annual “Military Power” has been delayed for almost 2 months are not available. Because the White House’s National Security Council, Assistant to report they presented revisions. Present report essays engage people are more relaxed attitude to make the report to avoid antagonizing China and the large fees pains.

“China Military Power Report,” each introduced, set off a tide of international public opinion must be large or small, the “China threat theory” wave. Can be said that the contents of the report released into a number of countries accused the Chinese military threat “ammunition.” Therefore, this report has been criticized by the Chinese side, China has adopted various means to pressure the United States, to stop publishing the report.

“Insider” reports that China has been all these years trying to prevent through various channels, “Chinese Military Power Report,” to publish, at least make the text less “killing power”, one of which was established in 2008, “Sanya Initiative. ” According to reports, “Sanya Initiative” the previous Hong Kong Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa and his predecessor, former U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Vice Chairman Owens led some Chinese People’s Liberation Army has been transferred to the former deputy chief of staff, the current “International Strategic Studies,” the President Xiong will take over.

In addition to “Sanya Initiative”, the Chinese continued to recent U.S. release, “Chinese Military Power”, “China Human Rights Report” and other acts of accusations and protests. China’s attitude toward the U.S. aware of the report can only lead to China’s growing conflict.

China-US military exchanges suspended the sanctions involved in arms sales to Taiwan companies to conduct testing of advanced weapons such substantial military build-up measures, the U.S. military and intelligence services are, the more blame on China, the greater the force of China’s military reaction.

Interruption during the military exchanges in the U.S. on the PLA’s situations more difficult place in the Chinese coastal ships, aircraft confrontation crisis more difficult to resolve quickly, easily misfires. U.S. sanctions will directly affect the company is the U.S. domestic economy and employment. The United States has exaggerated the results of China’s military strength is growing all the parties that advanced weapons to China several test out equipment more sophisticated weapons, “expected”, “logical.”

Instead, there are so many released report is not a situation conducive to the United States, which is first proposed the preparation of the “China military power report,” The people did not expect.

U.S. observers believe that the global financial crisis, the United States rely heavily on each other is increasing. Military means other than checking each other in strengthening bilateral relations continued to deteriorate the economy is not conducive to recovery. To extend the military stalemate in the field of economic and trade fields, lead to all-out confrontation, which is the United States at this stage do not want.

Greater threat to confidential version of the report hidden

However, the Chinese people, if this happy, that has affected the United States made war of victory, it seemed too early.

China Military Power Report,” There are two versions, in recent years, people see only the public version, in which data and information are obtained from media reports and public research institutions materials. The main function of the public version of influencing public opinion.

There are many elements, the U.S. military that “not easy” put in the public version. In addition, some content will pull out the U.S. strategy toward China real plot, we can not put in the public version. “Dongfeng -21″ anti-ship missile was classified as confidential version of the content is out of this concern. In recent years, the U.S. military has stressed the People’s Liberation Army’s “anti-intervention” capacity rising, if the public version of this inclusion, the U.S. military report on the more or less related to how to break the “anti-intervention” of the content.

This public opinion against America. The so-called “intervention” is the invasion of another country to carry out military operations in coastal waters as well as the civilization argument, “anti-intervention” is a self-defense, what is not?

This strategy attempts to hide the United States is also true negative. The United States should “anti-intervention” measures to combat the development of more advanced weapons, to ensure the freedom to impose their “intervention.” In the recently released U.S. Department of Defense, “Quadrennial Defense Review,” the report, did not elaborate to say a few words for “global real-time combat”, “one naval and air combat capability,” R & D, then. Behind this is the United States to speed up the development of ten times the speed of sound a few missiles, space weapons, and concealment penetration Navy UAV, and other operational means to ensure at all times against other countries.

In the U.S. view, these things certainly can not put the public version.

It very much doubt, “China Military Power Report,” after all the game participants, the content of these more dangerous but hidden in the secrets edition, continues to affect U.S. military strategy toward China policy. , “All warfare is deception also.” In “Laughter is not grinning,” the tone of the back, “China Military Report,” the China threat has not diminished.

China and the United States hegemony and the political manipulation of tricks

In recent months, the United States in the Google incident, arms sales to Taiwan and met with the Dalai Lama and so on, frequently took the lead after another step by step, wantonly crash China’s “bottom line” and undermine China’s national interests and national dignity, so that the US relations again into the “winter.” Through this series of events behind, it is easy to see American-style hegemony and painstaking manipulation tactics.
       In mid-November last year, President Obama to “soft posture” to visit China, and the release of a number of “positive signals”, in the jointly issued the “China-US Joint Communique”, the upgrade bilateral relations to a “common response to the challenges partnership. ” Obama also braving the cold wind to board Badaling Great Wall, when a return to “hero.” People in this country atmosphere permeated with a sense of optimism that the United States between the interests of “common ground” too much, another will take care of each other’s “major concern”, “G2″ cohabitation times in the world has come. Unexpectedly, the Obama “lift knee” had left on the “fell out”, across the Atlantic came a discordant series of “tone” Doutou to the people throwing the “pot of cold water.” U.S. National Public Radio reported that the January 2, in trade, investment and exchange rates and other matters, it is foreseeable prospect of Sino-US relations “is more conflict, rather than more cooperation.” G8R super-camp military January 4, the United States, “Washington Post” published an article entitled “worried,” the article, fearing the US-China relations will hit rock bottom in 2010. The reason is intensifying Sino-US trade disputes and the approval of President Obama may be the beginning of arms sales to Taiwan, but also ready to meet with the Dalai Lama.
       Right on cue, the new year, the United States wielded “fist” “about face” to play to China. January 12, the search engine giant Google Inc. Senior Vice President and General Counsel David. Multi-Ahmed, in order to give vent to dissatisfaction with China’s Internet censorship, deliberately wrote in the blog site “found from China against the company’s infrastructure, highly sophisticated and targeted attacks, leading to Google intellectual property theft “;” There is evidence that the main purpose of the attackers to enter China’s human rights of people e-mail account “;” We have decided not to continue to review the Google search results in China . ” Just a few hundred words of Bo-wen to express the meaning is very clear: First, the Chinese government supports innuendo “hacker attack”; 2 is to be “defender of human rights, freedom fighters.” It is this insinuation, so that U.S. officials were “more likely situation is that these attacks and the Chinese government has loose ties”, “excuse.” In fact, Google’s very clear, the network hacker attacks occur every day throughout the world, China is also a target for hackers is a victim of cyber-attacks, China’s law is strictly prohibited acts of hackers, but also to “review, filtration “unhealthy content on the network has made relevant provisions. Google in 2006 when the company entered China had a clear commitment to abide by Chinese law. Now back on its words, we should start with the Chinese government to “negotiate”, assumed a more aggressive look. “Google incident” came out, the U.S. politicians seem to find a “beating China,” “excitement,” thought of “network freedom” and “human rights person”, then U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, President Obama, personally stood up to China Government send a punitive expedition, launched an attack pressure, will the Internet as a tool for ideological struggle. January 29, the United States ignored China’s solemn representations, insisted announced a new wave of arms sales to Taiwan, including 60 Black Hawk helicopters and Patriot III missile system, two Osprey-class minesweeper, Harpoon anti-ship missile , Bo-Sheng command and control systems, the total amount of 64 billion U.S. dollars. Intended to incorporate Taiwan into the U.S. military’s Pacific theater control system to enhance Taiwan’s ability to resist the mainland’s military, encourage the arrogance of the separatist island and undermine our country’s core interests and hinder the process of peaceful reunification. February 18, that is our fifth day of the first month, when all the Chinese Guo Danian immersed in the festive and peaceful atmosphere of the time, Obama insisted on meeting with Dalai Lama at the White House, in the Chinese people’s heart, sprinkled with 1 “salt.” Within a short span of a month’s time, Google events, arms sales to Taiwan to meet with the Dalai Lama are the United States intended to make trouble for stirring up. The United States as an arbitrary “cowboy”, regardless of disregard, wielded fist, connecting towards the Chinese call. Yankee hegemonic behavior has aroused strong indignation of the entire Chinese people!
       Quite interesting is that the U.S. “manipulation skills” as if through a number of carefully “rehearsal” and its “Kung Fu” has reached the depth of the “consummate” with it. Around the United States single-handedly provoked the incident a violation of China’s interests, the U.S. media, think tanks, the military, politicians turn their turns on stage, the show supernatural powers, “tacit understanding.” “Google incident,” first be Google’s senior vice president of David. Multi-Ahmed, wrote in the network media, stirred up, “broke the news,” and then the U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton clearly stated publicly “network freedom” stance, Obama then asked the Chinese “explain.” U.S. arms sales to Taiwan, in essence, the interests and arms dealers to the U.S. strategy of containment against China. The United States first be well-known think tank the Rand Corporation and “assess” the mainland has been thrown across the Taiwan Strait military “tilting” and the only arms sales to Taiwan in order to “maintain cross-strait military balance” the conclusions in advance for the United States arms sales to Taiwan and the to test the mainland’s “response.” RAND Corporation and to be able to “forecast” to: In order not to provoke the mainland, this “arms sales to Taiwan in the list may not be requested by Taiwan F-16C / D fighters.” Arms sales to Taiwan after the announcement, and indeed with the Rand Corporation think tank’s “estimate,” exactly the same. Meeting with the Dalai Lama issue, the U.S. media propaganda machinery manufacturing public opinion, said Obama created a “first year in office served as the president did not meet with the Dalai Lama precedent”, and implies that Obama has “given enough,” the Chinese “face “Obama met with the Dalai Lama used to, above reproach. As early as the Dalai Lama arrived in the United States before the U.S. media will “pay attention” to the White House’s “low-key.” US media reported that Obama intends to address the election will meet the West Wing at the White House Map Room, rather than a symbol of presidential power in the Oval Office. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs on Obama, after meeting with the Dalai Lama stressed: “This is the president and the White House meeting with the team think that the best place.” The U.S. media “can pinch will be counted,” not only “objective” reporting of events that have taken place, but also able to “accurately predict” has not yet happened, simply spirits. Obama met with the Dalai Lama, the U.S. military “smart” with the. February 17, that is, the first day of Obama meeting with the Dalai Lama, the U.S. nuclear aircraft carrier “Nimitz” battle group arrived in Hong Kong, more than five thousand officers and men in Hong Kong “stay” 4 days. “Nimitz” aircraft carrier, the U.S. Stars and Stripes fluttering in the breeze. The flight deck, nearly a hundred fighter planes neatly parked there. Armed guards patrolled the deck at all times maintain a high degree of vigilance. “Nimitz” aircraft carrier moored in the sensitive period in Hong Kong, the U.S. media “surprise” to not “read,” Is it fear of tingling of the Chinese people “nervous”? Because they believe that the Chinese people will not forget two years ago, the “Kitty Hawk incident.” November 19, 2007, the Chinese government refused to ratify the reasons for multi-”Kitty Hawk” to Hong Kong. Very angry after the U.S. government openly incited “Kitty Hawk” aircraft carrier battle group and triumphantly return flagrantly pass through the Taiwan Strait. And in passing through the Taiwan Strait, the assumed “combat stance” – carrier-based early-warning aircraft off guard, fighter Luekong fly naked protest to the Chinese government. Over the years, Americans seem to associate numbers of China’s diplomacy response to “Pulse”: the face of the United States, often provocative, and only parry our blows, there is no backhand of the force, diplomatic protests also dry in a few less “stereotyped” and there is no really been taken to the United States feel “pain” of the counter-measures. Everyone in the face of this “unpleasant” incident, the U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took advantage of his opportunity to argue that the Pacific countries: “I hope we (the U.S.) can have a mature relationship to deal with the differences between the two countries. This means that we relationship and because of our disagreement does not deteriorate. ” Attempts to the increasingly tense Sino-US relations, “cool” and then counting on China to North Korea, Iran nuclear, Afghanistan, and some global issues with the U.S. action.
       Recently, the U.S. Undersecretary of State Steinberg and the White House National Security Council senior director for Asian affairs, arrived in Beijing to visit Bader, “trying to repair the” damage Sino-US bilateral relations. Crowley, the U.S. State Department spokesman, said, “Beijing and Washington need to set aside their differences, from the Taiwan and Tibet issues to the Internet free and the RMB exchange rate and so on, hand in hand to move forward.” Words are still ringing in our ears, the U.S. State Department recently issued the interference in China’s internal affairs, “Human Rights Report” on China’s human rights situation in making wild accusations. With regard to China’s “military power” and the Chinese “currency manipulation report” is said about “baked.” Google is again “fermentation temperature,” according to Reuters, the U.S. Google CEO Eric Schmidt said the March 10, Google and the Chinese government’s censorship and hacker attacks, the negotiations will soon bear fruit. On the same day, Anna Wong, vice president of Google in the U.S. House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee hearing, reiterated that Google do a good job of preparing to cease operations in China. She claims that, Google will no longer be subject to review for Chinese search content filtering, “even if this option will lead us to close Google.cn Chinese search engine, leave the Chinese market.” Meanwhile, the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency recently released an assessment report said that the level of Taiwan’s fighter behind has affected Taiwan’s actual combat capability. There have been comments that the United States this is the place of export wind of their intention to sell Taiwan F-16C / D fighter aircraft. High-profile China-US trade friction will also continue to be staged in order to implement the State of the Union speech, Obama declared “national export action” – not only the next five years, doubling the U.S. exports, and create 2 million jobs plan. It seems that this year’s Sino-US relations is bound to be conflicts, trapped in a “trough” in a difficult year. The next step the United States is “seasoned” political manipulation “routines”, or a new guise, what is the “new drama” staged? We can only wait and see!
