VDH UltraOur Two Cold Wars Couldn’t Be More Different. Part Two: Our Current Cold War with China
Victor Davis Hanson Contrast the Russian Cold War with our current rivalry with a 1.4-billion-person China. Other than its size and strange combination of state-run/crony capitalism with Maoist totalitarianism, ostensibly, China should be no more difficult a rival than was the Soviet Union. Like Russia, it was a one-time ally of the U.S. in World
VDH UltraOur Two Cold Wars Couldn’t Be More Different. Part One: The Russian Cold War Model
Victor Davis Hanson How did the U.S. win the 45-year-old Cold War with the former Soviet Union?

Victor Davis Hanson But no problem. At the ER, they gave me Benadryl and some tests, and I was out in a few hours. So, it would be now, too. The doctor there had said, “You have an allergy to something. And oh, by the way, you have a large kidney stone on your scan.”

Victor Davis Hanson I have lived on my farm for the most part of my 72 years. In all of them, I have lived amid pollinating orchards—plums, apricots, pears, and now almonds. These species required dozens of rented beehives at bloom. In the last few decades, perhaps the Africanized hybrid strains seem a bit more
