China admits to cyberwarfare strategy

China has admitted that it is preparing for cyberwarfare and plans to conduct drills in June 2013 to test aspects of it:

China’s state news agency says the Chinese army will conduct an exercise next month to test new types of combat forces, including units using digital technology.

Xinhua reported Wednesday the drill marks the first time China’s military will focus on digitalized combat forces to be used in “informationalized war.”

The announcement of the digitalized combat forces comes as U.S. President Barack Obama is expected to talk about cybersecurity next week with Chinese President Xi Jinping, amid fresh reports of cyber attacks on critical American defense systems.

U.S. officials have not commented on the latest reports, but White House spokesman Jay Carney says he is certain cybersecurity will be discussed when President Obama meets with President Xi in California. Carney calls the issue a “key concern” for the administration that U.S. officials raise at every level in meetings with Chinese counterparts.

Monday, The Washington Post newspaper published parts of a confidential defense report accusing Chinese cyberspies of compromising some of the most sensitive and advanced U.S. weapons systems.

Classified sections of the report outlined more than two-dozen breaches of missile defense and other weapons systems by Chinese hackers, including many that had not been previously reported.

China firmly denies involvement in the hacking attempts. It has also returned the accusation, saying U.S.-based hackers have attacked several Chinese military websites. http://www.voanews.com/content/china-announces-digitalized-combat-forces/1670340.html

China is believed to be engaging in multiple forms of “cyber warfare” and now it basically admits it is preparing for a future, at least partially, cyberwar.

Of course, as the logo at the beginning of this post shows, the USA has its own plans (not all of which I believe are purely defensive).

While major war between the USA and China is not specifically prophesied in the Bible (though China may, at least somewhat, support the final King of the North Beast power, for a time against the USA and its interests–see the video Is China THE Threat to the United States of America?), this internet tension is showing the USA that China truly is not interested in being a friend (of course the USA has taken steps to show that it is also not China’s friend).

Actually, I believe that part of the reason that the USA will be able to be taken over by a European power is that it will conclude that China and others are a much bigger risk than Europe, and hence will shift more and more of its defense strategy towards dealing with China and others. Instead of considering Europe a threat, the USA will embrace it and rely on it for part of its military defense. The USA has already taken several steps along this line and this planned cyber-drill by China will only tend to increase the USA’s focus to China and away from Europe.

Overlooking Europe and the real threat from there (Isaiah 10:5-11) will be something that the militarily strong and wealthy USA will later regret (Daniel 11:39; 8:24).
