Chinese general to visit Pentagon, once threatened nuclear attacks on US cities Mar 5th 2013, 03:50 A Chinese general who once threatened to use nuclear weapons against hundreds of U.S. cities will visit the Pentagon this week as part of a U.S.-China military exchange program. Maj. Gen. Zhu Chenghu, who is head of China's National Defense University, will take part in a  "familiarization exchange," Maj. Catherine Wilkinson, a Pentagon spokeswoman, told the Free Beacon. "The delegation will visit Hawaii and D.C.," she said. "A military delegation from the U.S. Pacific Command will visit China later this year for a reciprocal exchange." Zhu will lead a group of 10 senior colonels from all branches of the Chinese military, Wilkinson said. She declined to provide the names of the officers. Zhu is best known for inflammatory comments made to two foreign news reporters in 2005 when he said China would use nuclear weapons against the United States in any conflict over Taiwan.
