BRIAN KILMEADE (CO-HOST): General, people have caught up in the South China Sea and thinking that is the China threat. But the China threat is everywhere. Do you see it that way?

JACK KEANE (FOX NEWS SENIOR STRATEGIC ANALYST): Oh yeah. We've never ever dealt with a country that has such a comprehensive strategy to undermine their adversaries and also self-promote themselves. And that's what's going on on these days on college campuses, Brian. Russia, Iran, North Korea, they try to undermine our democracy. What China tries to do is purge anything negative about the Chinese Communist Party or China itself on a college campus, and they do the same thing with content out in Hollywood in movies. How do they do that? They do it with money. They pour millions and millions of dollars into these campuses to influence the department heads who are controlling the content that's going out to our students. That's what this is about. 

KILMEADE: General, there's 65 active, they used to be called Confucius Institutes, on U.S. campuses. I think Columbia's bulking up their school then. What's wrong with learning about the Chinese culture? 

KEANE: Well, there's nothing wrong with learning about the Chinese culture, one, if it was accurate and it's not; and, two, these Confucius centers, they all have mentors. These Chinese students, they don't assimilate into the full breadth and social experience of the college. They stay in their own cocoon, so to speak, and the mentors oversee what they're doing. There's two things the students are doing and two things the Chinese are doing on a campus. One is what we just talked about, is influence operations in terms of self-promoting China and its glory, so to speak. The second thing is they steal research information and technology. So you've got to think of what is happening on college campuses as two-fold. One is there's spying going on and spying also going on with our professors, and some of them are bought and paid for, and the other thing is the influence operation itself.
