Because China\u2019s military rise has been completely unchecked under both the eight years of the Obama presidency and now under President Joe Biden.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The results are chilling.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-military.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Xi has been building a Chinese military that can back up his tough talk on Taiwan.\" class=\"wp-image-24292239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-military.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-military.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-military.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Xi has been building a Chinese military that can back up his tough talk on Taiwan.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Photo by Kevin Frayer\/Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For starters, we should understand that this is not the Chinese military of even just a few years ago. Xi has transformed his armed forces into something that could wage war against America in Asia \u2014 and would have a chance to win, something unthinkable just a decade ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Yes, Beijing is already a military superpower thanks to the development and deployment of thousands of ballistic, cruise and now even hypersonic missiles. If US forces ever tried to mass into any area around China \u2014 even as far away as Guam \u2014 Beijing could target and attack them relentlessly. It even stands to reason that Washington could see its mighty aircraft carriers, the source of US naval supremacy, sunk in a war with Beijing, meaning thousands dead.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, Chinese military strategists are proud of the fact that they have clear plans to leverage those missiles in a fight with America. Beijing\u2019s top military minds have talked about a \u201cbolt from the blue\u201d attack in which China launches a massive missile assault on US satellites in the sky, communications nodes, air bases and naval assets all over Asia if war looks imminent.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-missile.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"A Chinese DF-41 intercontinental ballistic missile and DF-17 hypersonic missile on display in Beijing on October 12, 2022.\" class=\"wp-image-24292236\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-missile.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-missile.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-missile.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>A Chinese DF-41 intercontinental ballistic missile and DF-17 hypersonic missile on display in Beijing on October 12, 2022.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">REUTERS\/Florence Lo<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Striking first would give Xi a major advantage, as China has so many missiles that US missile defenses would be overwhelmed, and most of America\u2019s assets on the ground and in space would be destroyed. That would present Washington with a tough choice, as US forces would have to fight their way into Asia in the event of a conflict, having already taken massive losses.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>China\u2019s goal is simple: It wants America to give up the fight thanks to one big knockout punch.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But again, that is just for starters. China now has its own aircraft carriers, three in total, with more on the way. Beijing also is building a fleet of stealth fighters and offering them for export. Xi and company are also developing not one but two new stealth bombers to challenge US dominance in Asia and put America\u2019s air bases under direct threat.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-carrier.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"One of China's three aircraft carriers in Hong Kong waters in 2017.\" class=\"wp-image-24292237\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-carrier.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-carrier.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/china-carrier.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>One of China\u2019s three aircraft carriers in Hong Kong waters in 2017.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Photo by ANTHONY WALLACE\/AFP via Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Then there are the nuclear weapons: It seems Beijing wants as many as it can get its hands on these days. Some say Xi intends to double China\u2019s total atomic arsenal to ensure it has a clear second-strike capability, with enough land-based weapons and submarines armed with nuclear weapons to negate any chance of a US first strike.<\/p>\n<p>From here, things will only get worse. While the US military battles about pronouns, China\u2019s only goal is ensuring it can wipe out our forces if war comes. Beijing is investing billions of dollars more in armed forces, building game-changer <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> related to artificial intelligence, blockchain, cyberweapons and much more.<\/p>\n<p>Until the Biden administration can truly get serious about the threat China poses, our own military\u2019s capabilities will degrade more and more.<\/p>\n<p><em>Harry J.
