>China is likely using the chaotic conditions on the southern border to insert military personnel into the U.S., the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee charged on Wednesday.
>Rep. Mark Green, Tennessee Republican, said among the large number of Chinese migrants who have rushed the border since President Biden took office are people with “known ties to the PLA” — the People’s Liberation Army.
>“We have no idea who these people are, and it’s very likely, using Russia’s template of sending military personnel into Ukraine, China is doing the same into the United States,” Mr. Green said.
>The number of Chinese immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally has exploded this year. Border Patrol agents caught nearly 8,000 of them since Jan. 1. That includes 3,195 in April alone, which is a 20-fold increase over last April, when agents caught just 146 of the immigrants.
>They’re hitting the southern tip of Texas particularly hard. The Border Patrol in the Rio Grande Valley sector detained 2,600 of them in April, the vast majority coming in as single adults.

>China has an off-switch for America, and we aren’t ready to deal with it.
>Chinese-made chips, routers and switches embedded throughout U.S. networks contain dormant firmware that, upon activation, could place critical U.S. infrastructure under Chinese Communist Party command.
>Under this approach, China targets power grids, satellites, telecom networks and data centers...

>Assassin's Mace (杀手锏, pronounced "sha-shou-jian") represents China's asymmetric warfare strategy aimed at defeating a technologically superior adversary by targeting critical vulnerabilities. Rooted in ancient Chinese strategic thinking, this concept envisions a suite of unconventional weapons and tactics designed to create devastating effects against Western military and civilian infrastructure at precisely the right moment.
>These weapons operate within China's "Unrestricted Warfare" doctrine, described by PLA Colonels Qiao Liang and Wang Xiangsui, who argued that "the battlefield will be everywhere" and "all the boundaries lying between the two worlds of war and non-war, of military and non-military, will be totally destroyed." Most concerning is how these weapons could be deployed together at the "Moment of Shi" (势/勢) – the optimal strategic timing – creating cascading failures across military and civilian domains that exceed the sum of their individual effects.
>China has developed sophisticated conceptions of "systems destruction warfare" that target networks and systems providing U.S. forces with their technological advantage rather than engaging in symmetric warfare. By targeting command, control, and communications infrastructure before conventional operations begin, China aims to blind, deafen, and isolate adversaries through attacks on supporting digital systems.
>The most tragic Assassin's Mace starts from China's principle to ignore any distinction between Ba's civilians and her defenders. By erasing traditional boundaries between civilian life and war, People's Liberation Army employs social, economic, chemical, information and biowarfare before and during war. From limitless fentanyl precursors to mind-altering algorithms to destabilizing Western markets, Blended Domains before war begins pales in comparison to what happens when the Moment of Shi arrives.
>This approach directly implements the "cocktail warfare" strategy advocated in "Unrestricted Warfare," which argued that “the great masters of warfare techniques during the 21st century will be those who employ innovative methods to recombine various capabilities so as to attain tactical, campaign and strategic goals.”

>Chinese National Natural Science Foundation-funded scientists have urged China to invest in military brain science (MBS), researching the damaging effects of various weapons on brain tissues and the development of brainwave interference and infrasound weapons. The brain, they argue, is the “‘headquarters’ of the human body” and weapons “[p]recisely attacking the ‘headquarters’” will soon become “one of the most effective strategies for determining victory or defeat in the battlefield”.

>The Commerce Department imposed sanctions on Chinese technology companies and announced recently that China’s military is engaged in dangerous work related to “brain control” warfare research.
>“War has started to shift from the pursuit of destroying bodies to paralyzing and controlling the opponent,” said the [Chinese military] report headlined, “The Future of the Concept of Military Supremacy.”
>“To win without fighting is no longer far-fetched,” it stated, quoting ancient strategist Sun Tzu’s maxim.
>The report, which was published in the official military newspaper PLA Daily, also asserted that China is merging four major technology fields for military purposes: nano, bio, information and cognition.
>“Future human-machine merging will revolve around the contest for the brain,” the report said. “The two combatant sides will use various kinds of brain control technologies and effective designs to focus on taking over the enemy’s way of thinking and his awareness, and even directly intervene in the thinking of the enemy leaders and staff, and with that produce war to control awareness and thinking,” the report said.
>A second Chinese report, also from 2019, disclosed that brain-machine interface is part of Beijing’s plan for the development of intelligentized warfare. The second report said “interactive intelligentization” will involve “direct control of machines using thoughts through mature brain-machine interface.”
>A third report published by the PLA revealed that the China Electronic Technology Group is working on “brain confrontation” technology for warfare.>Among its various research focuses are “brain control technologies, such as measuring neuronal activity in the brain and translating neuro-signals into computer signals, establishing uni-directional or bi-directional signal transmission between the brain and external equipment,” the third report said.
