Chang sounds alarm on Taiwan: US military must be ready for war with China in hours, not years
A Chinese drone was shot down over the Taiwan Strait on Thursday
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Gatestone Institute Senior Fellow Gordon Chang warned the U.S. military is not prepared for war with China, urging Biden to prepare Americans for war after a Chinese drone was shot down over the Taiwan Strait. Chang joined "Fox & Friends First" to discuss why he believes war could be coming in a matter of hours, as opposed to years.
GORDON CHANG: They're not prepared for a number of reasons. First of all, the Navy has been broken for a decade. The Air Force is not in great shape either, and also the political leadership in the Pentagon is not, I think, mentally prepared to fight a general war… They're much more interested in things like… woke culture and the rest of it. But also, they believe that if a conflict with China comes, it'll come no earlier than five years from now, and that's why they're retiring ships and planes. They need to be ready for a conflict with China in the next few hours, not five years from now.
