Going slightly off-topic the usual focus of the blog here, I’m pretty darn sure that a war is coming based on recent events. Check these stats out…

June - Pentagon hacked by Chinese Military. (FT)

September - Chinese military “infiltrates defense companies”. (FT)

September - Chinese military hacks Pentagon AGAIN. (vnunet)

September - UK foreign office attacked by Chinese hackers. (vnunet)

September - Chines military strikes again in France. (vnunet)

October - Chinese military attacks German networks. (vnunet)

December - MI5 contacts 300+ businesses warning of Chinese attacks. (vnunet)

December - Unexplained NSA (National Security Agency) website unavailability. (NSA)

December - US Military Labs Computers broken into. (Gadgetell).

Rather… We are IN a digital war. A technology war. A race for power. With China’s development of anti-satellite technology and the Great Firewall Of China, Iran’s undoubted nuclear warhead creation, North Korea’s embargo on e-mails, scanning and re-scanning everything that goes in and out of the country, Russia’s shady movements and secretive scientific research. If I didn’t know better, I’d say the Cold War never ended. Except it’s a little more of a World War than a Russia Vs. Britain feud.

What d’yall think? Pity we’re blocked by the Great Firewall Of China ourselves. Would have loved to have heard some views from inside the country.
