Navy intel chief says average Americans are ‘naive,’ have ‘blindness’ on China threat
 
MARCH 14, 2023 JUSTIN COOPER

The commander of Navy intelligence recently called the average American “naïve” to the threats posed by China, saying the nation suffers from “a China blindness problem” as competition between the countries reaches new heights.

Rear Adm. Mike Studeman, commander of the Office of Naval Intelligence, made the remark Feb. 15, Breaking Defense reported, at the height of the fallout over a Chinese spy balloon that flew over a large part of the U.S. before being shot down by fighter jets.
 

“I’ll be very honest with you. It’s very unsettling to see how much the U.S. is not connecting the dots on our No. 1 challenge,” Studeman said during the U.S. Naval Institute’s WEST 2023 conference in San Diego, California.

If the military is connecting the dots, it sure doesn't show in their actions. **nononono*
