My Most Recent Media Interviews and Upcoming Projects
Including a preview of my new proposed comprehensive national security strategy to successfully counter Communist China's grand plan to become the world's first global hegemon
Since I was last interviewed, Communist China has announced that it has suspended its one-week long Joint Blockade Exercise against Taiwan. However, the risk of increased Chinese aggression against Taiwan and other Pacific island nations within the next few weeks and months remains high.
I have listed links to my most recent recorded media interviews below in which I discussed the the ramifications of the Pelosi visit to Taiwan, China’s latest timeline for reunifying with Taiwan by force and how we should respond to Chinese aggression in the Pacific. I also discuss the latest developments in the war in Ukraine and the Ukrainian government's decision to brand me an "information terrorist" and “war criminal” for publishing a 15 point peace proposal to end the Russo-Ukrainian War.
There is one misstatement I made during my interview last week with Scott Horton that I need to correct. I do not favor abolishing NATO. Rather, I meant to say I support President Donald J. Trump’s call for a US departure from NATO which his former National Security Advisor John Bolton has confirmed in his new book. I would support the transformation of NATO into a European-led alliance, strengthened by Germany being armed with nuclear weapons while keeping Western Europe under America’s nuclear umbrella.

“How Should the U.S. Respond to Chinese Aggression Against Taiwan?”—A new comprehensive national security strategy soon to be published in The National Interest outlining how the U.S. can most effectively respond to Chinese aggression against Taiwan short of a direct military conflict by establishing clearly defined “red lines” that would trigger US military intervention and engaging in massive trade and economic sanctions against Beijing, while securing America’s vital interests and, more importantly, ensuring its survival. Here are some key points of my proposed strategy:
Provide strategic clarity by stating the U.S. will not send its military forces to defend Taiwan while establishing clear redlines that the US will go to war if any US military bases, territories or military forces are attacked or to defend America’s treaty allies—Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and Australia.
Declare that if China does take action to attempt to take control of Taiwan by military force, the U.S. will respond by implementing a policy of economic nationalism designed to completely decouple the U.S. economy from China by implementing extensive and wide-ranging trade and economic sanctions that I will elaborate on.
In the event of the Chinese naval blockade continues in place after their military exercises end, mediate a peaceful reunification agreement between China and Taiwan based on Deng Xiaoping’s “One Country Two Systems” giving Taiwan a high degree of autonomy, amnesty for all independence party leaders and ROC military servicemembers and the right to emigrate from Taiwan.
In the realization that any strategy to counter China will not likely succeed without the U.S. improving relations with Russia to divide and disrupt their military alliance with China as I have been advocating since 2000, the U.S. must take a number of actions that I will delineate. The most important action the Biden administration must take is to pressure the Ukrainian government to make peace with Russia before the window for peace has closed and it annexes all of its occupied territories as soon as next month, while also serving to end the danger of Russian nuclear escalation in Europe.
Sign a non-aggression pact with China as well as a trilateral sphere of influence agreement with Russia and China to establish clear redlines/boundaries to our respective spheres to prevent future conflict so we stop sending US military forces into their spheres of influence to provoke them to ally against us and attack us. China would have to recognize a U.S. sphere of influence over the Western Hemisphere, Western Europe, Japan, South Korea, Australia and perhaps the Philippines as well. China would have to relinquish its control of the Panama Canal and withdraw all troops and military support of Communist Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua in exchange for their control of the Singapore Straits and a Chinese sphere of influence over Taiwan, Mongolia, North Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Burma, Singapore, Pakistan, Afghanistan and about half a dozen Marxist African nations along with the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea and the South China Sea up to the “nine-dash line “. The U.S. would recognize a Russian sphere of influence over the former Soviet republics excepting the three Baltic republics which are NATO members as well as the Gulf of Finland, the Barents Sea, the Sea of Okhotsk. All three superpowers would agree to the continued political independence of all nations within their respective spheres of influence. Both sides would agree not to send their warships or combat aircraft within 200KM of the other country with the exception of the Bering Strait which is more narrow than that.
The U.S. should only agree to consider lessening these economic sanctions against the PRC if they keep their reunification agreement with Taiwan and treat the Taiwanese people well and refrain from committing any aggressions against other countries once reunification has been achieved.
Use the $150-200 billion in annual savings from closing most of our 800 US military bases abroad and bringing most of our 200,000-250,000 troops home to rebuild America’s strategic offensive and defensive capabilities by taking a number of important measures which I will discuss further in my article.
“How the U.S. Lost the Post-Cold War Peace”—an essay detailing all the biggest mistakes the U.S. has made that have brought us to the precipice of unnecessary nuclear war with the Sino-Russian alliance and what the world might have looked like if we hadn’t made them. A few of America’s biggest foreign policy mistakes include not welcoming Russia into NATO or as a full-fledged strategic partner by 1995 to prevent it from allying with Communist China and granting the PRC Most Favored Nation Status as well as WTO membership providing them trillions of US trade dollars to enable them to outpace us in virtually every economic, industrial, conventional military and nuclear field of competition. If we had not made those mistakes, Russia would be a U.S. ally today, Ukraine would be whole and free and China would be much weaker and more isolated militarily and much less willing to risk war with the U.S. over Taiwan. Unilaterally reducing America’s strategic nuclear deterrent below START I levels of 6,000 warheads was another huge mistake which has made the US much more vulnerable to nuclear and EMP attack by our adversaries and encouraged Communist China to build a nuclear arsenal nearly three times larger than our own.
Organizing a Coalition to Rebuild America’s Strategic Deterrent—a newly proposed full-spectrum strategic deterrence concept still in the process of consideration. It might include multiple national security organizations and think tanks committed to rebuilding our nuclear arsenal and build a multi-layered national missile defense system with space-based elements to meet the Sino-Russian nuclear threat while also focusing on hardening our electrical power grid and other critical infrastructure against the existential threats of comprehensive EMP and cyber attack. This initiative would seek to build support to more than triple the size of America’s strategic nuclear arsenal from 1,500 to 4,700 warheads to counter Russia’s and China’s massive strategic nuclear buildup which I estimate will give them five times more strategic nuclear warheads than we currently possess by 2024.
It would also support legislation to increase the number of our Anti-Ballistic Missiles (ABMs) to at least 5,000, which is half of the estimated number of ABMs deployed by the Russian Federation. It would also seek to further harden America’s nuclear triad and nuclear C3 against super EMP and cyber attack while improving our nuclear war survivability and civil defenses. Finally, it would prioritize national and homeland defense rather the current emphasis on offensive conventional military power projection to Europe, the Middle East and the Western Pacific which, along with our failed policy of liberal hegemony that seeks to interfere in Russia’s and China’s spheres of influence, has brought us to the brink of nuclear war with the Sino-Russian alliance.
“Churchill’s Missed Chance to Win the Second World War Four Years Earlier”
An essay revealing Hitler’s secret May 1941 offer to withdraw from 83% of the territory the Germans occupied from 1939-1941 which would have liberated seven out of nine European countries the Germans had occupied from 1939-1941 in addition to a German military withdrawal from North Africa without the loss of the life of a single additional Allied soldier in exchange for British neutrality in the imminent German-Soviet war. Had Hitler chosen to make this offer public, Churchill would have been forced by the British public to accept it or be forced out of office. Britain’s acceptance of his offer would have changed history forever preventing Communism from ever getting a foothold in China, North Korea or Vietnam and likely preserving the British Empire decades longer than actual history. It would also have saved the lives of half a million U.S. soldiers and 5- 6 million Jews given their deportation to Palestine was reportedly an express term in Hitler’s official peace offer.
