January 9, 2016 by PA Pundits - International

By Josh Siegel ~ North Korea’s fourth nuclear test may be its most consequential, but the world is limited in how far it can escalate its response.

China Sets Out To Claim High Seas

By Dr. Peter Brookes ~ Check this: In a brazen move, the People’s Republic of China is now building “islands” in the South China Sea to bolster its position against several other East Asian countries – and the United States.

Worrying About China

December 19, 2014 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba ~ If there is one thing various experts and pundits like to do most it is to worry about all manner of speculative threats. I can recall when much of their focus was on the Soviet Union until 1991 when it collapsed along with the decline in the cost of oil. The […]

November 16, 2014 by PA Pundits - International

December 23, 2013 by PA Pundits - International

By James Carafano Ph.D.~ In 1962, the Beatles auditioned for Decca Records. Pope John XXIII excommunicated Fidel Castro. And China invaded India. More than 2,000 died in the harsh mountain combat. A self-declared “non-aligned” power, India never expected to be attacked by a Cold War protagonist. Unprepared, New Delhi threw ground troops into the fight, […]

China is NOT the Future

March 22, 2011 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba Last year I read a book, “China’s Megatrends: The 8 Pillars of a New Society” by John and Doris Naisbitt and was so entranced I completely neglected my normal skepticism and missed all the signals that what I was reading was essentially propaganda. I wonder now how I could have missed this […]

By Helle Dale As a world leader, the United States cannot be lackadaisical about the power of symbols and images.
