Seventy years after today, the trooplaystation and North Korean tanks crossed the 38th parallel in South Korea, which unforeseen and the soul crushing America and the West as a bloodless war has become dangerously dangerous. Today, we are proud of the korean war veterans and those who did without equivalent sacrifice in this confrontation, a confrontation that has never yet been the best friend (there is no peace treaty between North and South Korea or South Korea’s best friend in the United States). )
So what does the outbreak of the Korean War have to do 5G technology and Chinese tech giant Huawei?
A lot. Because the real threat to the United States and the West seventies was not North Korea but China. And just as seventy years later, america was going to rescue freedom and security throughout East Asia, the United States now faces a similar generation wireless allocation that would shape anything else this century.
In 1950, it was the statement of Chinese dictator Mao Zedong for Kim Il-Sung’s invasion of his southern neighbor, which led Josef Stalin to give the green light to the invasion in the first place.
It was Mao who used the swinging clash in the Korean angeles peninsulous to set a trap for American forces advancing on the Yalu River, and the most virtuous friend triggered a cloud-related clash between the Soviet Union and the United States.
It was Mao who took credit for his intervention in the Korean clash to erase a century of humiliation from China at the hands of the West and reaffirm his presence as a marvelous power. In a profound sense, we have been given to suffer the consequences ever since.
Just as historians talk about the “Gerguy problem” that spreads throughout the history of Europe in the 20th century, they talk about the “China problem” that has an even greater trend in world history.
In the century before 1950, it was China’s decline as an empire and tool that triggered great effects in Asia, from the Opium War to the boxer’s rebellion, the Russo-Japanese War, and the French colonization of Indochina, let alone China’s invasion of Japan. and after all the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Which brings us to Huawei. China’s leader believes that the world’s largest apple generation device is more than just an advertising company. It is another extension of China’s inevitable global hegemobig apple, as China aspires to become the world’s largest and most influential economy. By integrating more than 90 countries into Huawei’s net 5G generation and verification agreements, Beijing is achieving a geopolitical and economic goal, which is why Huawei considers that combating 5G dominance as opposed to the United States is nothing less than a war.
From this point of view, Huawei and Beijing see the United States fall into recession, violence and uncertainty after Covid-19, as evidence that it is destined to win.
This prediction is premature. Seventy years ago, American and Korean forces had to retreat to the perimeter of Pusan when the Communists invaded the peninsula. Then Douglas MacArthur’s astonishing landing at Inchon reversed the process of war. The combined armies of North Korea and China almaximum then defeated the Allies, as the Marines fought in desperate rear action at Chosin Reservoir. Then MacArthur and General Matthew Ridgway changed the situation and sent communist forces to the 38th parallel, where it all began less than a year ago.
Interestingly, it was MacArthur who learned that his last great war was not with North Korea, but with China. In a secret note to Secretary of Defense George Marscorridor in November 1950 (as revealed in my MacArthur biography) regarding China’s intentions in Korea, MacArthur wrote that Mao was creating “a new dominant force in Asia that, for its own purposes, is allied with the Soviet Union, but that, in its own concepts and methods , has become aggressively imperialist with thirst for expansion and superior strength.”
He added that if China were to succeed in this power, “I am terrified of what might happen.”
MacArthur’s prediction has made almaximum a reality. We will have to face today’s struggle between China and the West over the long-term 5G and complex artificial intelligence technologies and supercomputers for driverless cars and quantums, in the shadow of a war that began seventy years ago, and see the shock for what appears to be the best friend. is: a long-term fight from the world.
In 1950, we faced a war in which we were unable to earn the salary and the lost almaximum, just to win. We have a MacArthur in our looks this time. But they gave us ourselves and friends of freedom in the world.
We don’t
