| Link of the Week Frank Gaffney, head of the Center for Security Policy, warns the U.S. against ignoring Communist China�s growing power and aggressive nature. In a very good piece in the Washington Times, Gaffney notes Communist China�s growing belligerence against Taiwan and the U.S., its growing financial power that is fueling its military buildup, and the antics of Hong Kong tycoon and PRC-sympathizer Li Ka-shing.
