Debate with Frank Gaffney on dangers: CCP's world domination vs. US folly. While CCP is concerning, US lack of prudence is worse. Sun Tzu would foresee Chinese victory without conflict due to American incompetence. Discuss American folly in HOT ZONE episode.
The HOT ZONE: Enemies Within Ryan Wesley Routh, Dr. Jay Varma, Olivia Nuzzi, American bioweapons, persecution of Dr. Paul Marik, suppression of cancer treatment Sat, 28 Sep 2024 14:26:32 GMT https://petermcculloughmd.substack.com/p/the-hot-zone-enemies-within I occasionally debate with my friend Frank Gaffney about which is more dangerous—the Chinese Communist Party’s desire for world domination or America’s spectacular lack of prudence, discipline, and common sense. While I appreciate and concur with Frank’s concern about CCP machinations, I am even more concerned about American folly and venality. As the great Chinese philosopher of war, Sun Tzu observed:
To win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.
If Sun Tzu were still around to study America’s current political and institutional leadership, he would express certainty of an eventual Chinese triumph without firing a single shot. The only thing he would likely express concern about is that—like a two-year-old throwing a tantrum in the grocery checkout line when his mama doesn’t buy him a Snickers bar—the Americans would likely embark on a pointless spree of destroying a ton of men and property instead of prudently recognizing they have been defeated.
