Why Is the CCP Afraid of Its Own People?

CrossroadsET

The Chinese regime is banging the drums of war. Outside China, it’s becoming more aggressive. In the South China Sea, it’s growing more daring in its disputes with the Philippines. In trade, its diplomats are aggressively trying to expand in new markets. Politically, its diplomats have been on the offensive. Yet, behind the scenes, there is a very different picture. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is reorganizing its military, but the demand is for loyalty to the Party. The same calls for loyalty are being issued within the ranks of the CCP’s leadership. But even more telling, there...

Is the CCP Getting Dangerously Close to the US Red Line?

CrossroadsET

The United States drew a line in the sand in its disputes with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). It declared openly that if the CCP attacks the Philippines, the United States will be forced to defend its ally. The warning comes after a Philippine sailor was seriously injured following a Chinese coast guard ship allegedly ramming their boat. The latest incident comes amid a growing pattern of confrontations between Philippine ships and CCP ships in the South China Sea. The Chinese regime claims ownership of the whole region, which has been rejected by many nearby countries as well as by the...

Why the US–China Trade War Is Heating Up

CrossroadsET

The United States and Europe are involved in a trade war with the Chinese Communist Party.

How the CCP Is Using Propaganda to Win the Muslim World

CrossroadsET

It appears the Chinese Communist Party is launching a charm campaign at the Muslim world.

Is Hong Kong Becoming the CCP’s New Tibet?

CrossroadsET

The fate of Hong Kong is becoming a focal point in the United Kingdom, where a British judge, who recently resigned from Hong Kong’s highest court, said the former British colony is becoming a totalitarian state under the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The criticisms focus on the recent conviction of 14 political dissidents by CCP authorities, and come in the wake of recent CCP suppression in Hong Kong about discussions on the history of the Tiananmen Square massacre. The CCP controls several territories where it employs additional abusive policies as a way to maintain its authority,...

Why Is the CCP Mobilizing Its Citizens as Spies and Soldiers?

CrossroadsET

The main espionage agency of the Chinese Communist Party has released a propaganda video on a new state program—essentially attempting to enlist every one of China’s citizens into the role of spies, from co-workers to kids, to the old lady down the street. Alongside this, the CCP has also been rolling out other programs, including one that forms militias among Chinese companies, and another for the military training of school children. So what’s really going on? We discuss all this and more in this episode of Crossroads. Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and...

What Is the US ‘Hellscape’ Strategy to Stop a CCP Invasion of Taiwan?

CrossroadsET

The United States has developed a strategy to disrupt China’s communist regime if it tries to take Taiwan by force. This is now being described as a “Hellscape” strategy, and one that would involve classified capabilities as well as thousands of unmanned vehicles—including drones, submarines, and surface craft. Its aim would be to delay the CCP long enough for the United States and its allies to arrive, and could drag the Chinese regime into a drawn-out war similar to what Russia now finds itself fighting in Ukraine. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this proposed U.S....

Is China’s Economy Actually Collapsing?

Amid Nuclear Escalations, Is the World Returning to a Cold War State?

For the first time in decades, the United States is considering expanding, rather than reducing, its nuclear arsenal.

Why Is the CCP Trying to Stop a Russia–Ukraine Peace Deal?

A conference to discuss a possible peace deal between Russia and Ukraine is currently set for June 15 and 16. The plan is off to a rough start, due to alleged outside interference from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

In this live Q&A with Crossroads host Joshua Philipp, we’ll discuss this topic and others, and answer questions from the audience.
