China Raids India

July 5, 2012: India recently confirmed rumors that the computer networks of its Eastern Naval Command (ENC) had been hacked and information sent back to Internet addresses in China. The ENC handles operations off the east coast of India and points east (like the Straits of Malacca and the South China Sea). This includes the growing number of Indian Navy operations eastward, including in the South China Sea.

The Chinese Navy has been more active near the Straits of Malacca and in the Indian Ocean because of the large amount of Chinese shipping passing through the area. This includes Chinese exports, and most of Chinese oil imports (along with minerals from Africa). The South China Sea is important to China because China claims the entire area, and any natural resources in the water or beneath the ocean floor. This is disputed by other nations that border the South China Sea. These nervous neighbors of China (mainly Philippines, Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia and Vietnam) have been forming an alliance, and are enticing the United States, India and Russia to help out.

India is in the process of shifting the majority of its warships to the ENC, and away from the Western Naval Command, which for decades controlled most of the fleet and stood prepared to deal with Pakistan in another war. Pakistan has declined as a major threat, and has been replaced by China. This explains why China would be interested in what the Indian Navy is up to, especially the ENC. China denies any involvement in hacking ENC networks.

Nemo me impune lacesset,


[linked image]"The chief aim of all government is to preserve the freedom of the citizen. His control over his person, his property, his movements, his business, his desires should be restrained only so far as the public welfare imperatively demands. The world is in more danger of being governed too much than too little.

It is the teaching of all history that liberty can only be preserved in small areas. Local self-government is, therefore, indispensable to liberty. A centralized and distant bureaucracy is the worst of all tyranny.

Taxation can justly be levied for no purpose other than to provide revenue for the support of the government. To tax one person, class or section to provide revenue for the benefit of another is none the less robbery because done under the form of law and called taxation."

John W. Davis, Democratic Presidential Candidate, 1924. Davis was one of the greatest trial and appellate lawyers in US history. He also served as the US Ambassador to the UK.
