One thing that I think some people are missing in the hacking of our election process is the dawn of a new era of aggression. It just might not be necessary to invade a country anymore; just immobilize it’s infrastructure and bring it to it’s knees. The ease that Russia, China and assorted hackers can tap into supposedly secure sites is scary. I don’t know about Russia, but China has 5 universities dedicated to cuber-warfare. They are turning out people dedicated to making China invincible.

Today’s weapons systems are more and more computer driven, even our planes ability to fly is controlled by computers; this is called fly by wire. Neutralize the aircraft’s computers and the plane drops from the skies. Stop all communication with ground forces and the war is won for your side with little risk to your troops. Russia and China’s goal is to create a whole new form of war-fare; first to destroy all computer systems and then destroy all weapons with stat6e of the art armaments.

On Sept. 7, 2007 Israel attached a nuclear facility in Syria, wiping it out at midnight. The Syrian troops on the ground were helpless because their defense systems were telling them that nothing was there. Israel had made themselves invisible to Syrian defenses. Just recently, Israel purchase 50 American F-35s. They refused the F-35s communications, radar and weapons systems because they had something butter (scary, scary scary.) We are putting great hopes on this $119 million aircraft.

This post is not to say that America is sitting on it’s hands and waiting to be conquered. We have a supper secret unmanned aircraft in space with an unknown mission. Can it snatch an enemy’s satellites out of space? Although pictures of it have been posted on the Internet, the USAF refuses to admit the existence of any such craft. We have weapons around Russia and I’m sure that the threat of cuber-warfare has been taken into account before deploying the weapons.

One of my brothers has worked in China for 6 or 7 yrs.

His kids went to school there for 4 yrs and are fluent.

He notes one thing about China, which is that it doesn't think of itself as second to any other country in the world.
