Jan Jekielek talks to John Lenczowski to discuss America’s failure to understand the nature of the communist China threat, and what should be done to counter it: “If you are dealing with a voracious power, with a revolutionary, ideologically based ambition of unlimited objectives, then appeasement will only whet its appetite.”

John Lenczowski is the founder, chancellor, and president emeritus of The Institute of World Politics, a District of Columbia-based graduate school that specializes in the instruments of statecraft and national security. He was the principal Soviet affairs advisor to President Ronald Reagan.

“The Chinese have 600 front organizations operating in the United States today trying to influence all sorts of segments of our society,” he says.

In America, he says, “there is willful blindness, there is wishful thinking, there is mirror imaging, there is corruption, there are all sorts of business interests who would prefer to try to do harmonious business with the Chinese Communist regime. There were businesses that wanted to make money by doing business with the Soviet Union and with Nazi Germany before that.”

According to Lenczowski, “the academic community and the media community have been corrupted effectively by the Chinese Communist regime, academics have learned to respect what I call the four taboos. Don’t write about Chinese human rights violations. Don’t write about their military buildup, don’t write about their espionage, and don’t write about their covert political influence operations, many of which also are overt. And so if you don’t write about those things, then you’ll get a visa to China, and you can go to the country of your expertise and your New York Times Bureau won’t be shut down and you won’t be expelled for writing things that are offensive to the Chinese Communist regime.”

“The academic institutions are addicted to Chinese students who pay full tuition. Many of these students are going into the stem departments. Many of them already have the advanced degrees in engineering that they are seeking in the American institutions. Why would they come and get a duplicate degree? Well, because they learned the basics in China, and now they get to know what the cutting edge research that their professors are engaging in and it’s easy to steal it and to report it to the Chinese Intelligence service.”
