Sounds like the stuff movies are made out of. Spend a little time reading the headlines and it wont take you long to understand there is a greater chance that not that Chinese operatives are working their MOJO on U.S. soil.
For now, their hostile operations seem to be directed at dissidents such as the Uigurs and Falun Gong. Of course, read through my previous posts and you'll get a good history of their U.S. based operations respective of Front Companies, Economic Espionage, Political Influence, and Theft of Sensitive U.S. Technology.
In an interesting article, Forbes outlines a number of Chinese black operations. With black operations comes, sleeper cells, safe houses, and spys..... the stuff spy movies are made of. Sexy stuff huh?
FORBES
Overseas Falun Gong practitioners are, for example, leading an underground campaign to hack China's Internet firewalls to counter the Chinese Communist Party's news blackout and propaganda in the Middle Kingdom. But there are many skirmishes between Chinese communism and Chinese spiritualism taking place on U.S. soil.
Last year, however, Falun Gong practitioners worldwide were themselves barraged with harassing phone calls, including death threats. Some of these campaigns involved hours of continuous and simultaneous ringing of work and home phones and private cell phones.
A few days before the July 1999 crackdown in China, Falun Gong Web sites in Canada and the U.S. began to crash. According to Ethan Gutmann, author of Losing the New China, a Falun Gong practitioner in Washington traced the "denial of service" hacker attacks through an Asia-Pacific Internet registry, to No. 14 East Chang'an Street, Beijing, where China's Ministry of Public Security is located.
The Chinese government's persecution of Falun Gong followers is allegedly run by the notorious Office 6-10, a specially created unit that has overseen a terror campaign, which survivors say includes mass arrests, imprisonment in labor camps, brainwashing, torture and, in some cases, murder, for all those who failed to renounce their allegiance to Falun Gong.
