China’s ‘Unrestricted Warfare’

Yah, I know. Another China article, but this one is very interesting.

I just received some news about a Chinese Military manual, published a full three years before 9/11, that suggested acts of terrorism, such as the bombing of the world trade center, as methods of combating the United States.

From Cryptome:

Published prior to the bombing of China’s embassy in Belgrade, the book has recently drawn the attention of both the Chinese and Western press for its advocacy of a multitude of means, both military and particularly non-military, to strike at the United States during times of conflict. Hacking into websites, targeting financial institutions, terrorism, using the media, and conducting urban warfare are among the methods proposed.

The word on the street is the major news organizations are not reporting this due to fears it may strain China/US economic relations.

You can read a summary of the doc by the Federation of American Scientists here.
