Tens of thousands of Chinese spies are ‘ready to DESTROY the US’, billionaire reveals
The London Daily Express ^ | July 13, 2017 | Thomas Hunt

A CHINESE billionaire claimed that Beijing has planted up to 25,000 spies across the US who are “ready to destroy” the country.

The shocking statement by Guo Wengui, who is in a self-imposed exile in New York City, follows rising tensions between the US and China over the situation in North Korea.

The shocking statement by Guo Wengui, who is in a self-imposed exile in New York City, follows rising tensions between the US and China over the situation in North Korea.

The tycoon said: “Before 2012, cumulatively China had around 10,000 to 20,000 agents working in the United States.

“These agents had been sent to work in the US over a 50 year period of time, and they were working in a defensive mode.”

The property magnet warned that prior to 2012 the spies were charged with gathering information but since then they have been switched to “offensive” spying.

Mr Guo said: “By offensive (operations), I mean to be ready to destroy the US in ways they can.”

China’s budget for intelligence gathering before 2012 was around £465million annually but espionage funding jumped to somewhere between two to three billion pounds.....

I believe this. Just look at what one of their operatives did to United Airlines.

Article is woefully short on substance. Source is British equivalent of The National Enquirer, supermarket tabloid. Original poster’s typical junk offering. Ignore.

Assassinate local leaders. Destroy infrastructure. Set wildfires. Use your imagination.

If you have 20k+ operatives in a foreign country (especially a country with freedom-of-movement like the US), and you could activate them, either all at once, or in echelons, what would you have them do?

Supposedly, the Soviets had plans like this in place for the US, during the Cold War. The Americans (a fictional TV series based on real-life events) had an episode on this very scenario, a while back.

It wouldn't surprise me if other countries had similar sleeper agents here in the US. Probably the Russians still do.

if they do that, they’ll never be able to collect the trillions of dollars they loaned us... and that’ll be the end of us buying all their crap.

One thousand Chinese (or any nationality, for that matter) spread across America, each with a book of matches, could ignite unimaginable destruction nationwide in just one night. Tens of thousands, that much more.

They would have to do it in the first day. By sundown anyone that looks remotely from China would be gunned down or arrested.

If this is true I believe they would only activate them as a last resort in the event of an all out war. This may no be a very credible article, but I don't doubt there's some kind of plan like this that's either already in place or being worked on. The Chinese know how to work our system. They are buying up Hollywood to produce pro-China propaganda. We know pregnant Chinese women come to our country just to have their baby so it will obtain citizenship. That kind of stuff is a real concern considering we know they are preparing for a conflict with us down the road.
