In May 2019, the Chinese Communist Party declared a whole-of-society “People’s War” on the United States. Yesterday, Beijing announced highly restrictive controls on exports to this country of rare earth minerals essential to our economic activity and national security.

History may record it as the moment when China’s longstanding, pre-kinetic “unrestricted warfare” against us took the turn towards the old-fashioned, shooting kind.

If so, that will be because in short order, Chinese dictator Xi Jinping will follow that crippling blow with others inside America for which he has been preparing for some time. A webinar today will examine the resulting “enemy within” threats.

You have an urgent need-to-know what is now in prospect – and what we must do immediately to put this country on a war-footing and protect all you hold dear. Please, join us at 1 p.m. ET at PresentDangerChina.org.
