This document page (167), labeled as Appendix 2 and bearing a House Oversight Bates stamp, details geopolitical tensions regarding the Ryukyu Islands (Okinawa) and the Senkaku/Diaoyu chain. It analyzes 'covert meddling' and propaganda efforts by the 'Organizing Committee for the Ryukyus,' a Hong Kong-based group with personnel ties to the CCP United Front Work Department, which agitates for Chinese sovereignty over the islands. The text also references the US military presence in Okinawa as a source of local discontent utilized by these campaigns.
