'We should not single out one race, this is racial profiling, it is illegal, it is immoral, and it's certainly against American values,' a foreign policy expert told Newsweek.

A State Department official this week controversially invoked race as a contributing factor for China being an unprecedented threat to the U.S.

"In China we have an economic competitor, we have an ideological competitor, one that really does seek a kind of global reach that many of us didn't expect a couple of decades ago. And I think it's also striking that it's the first time that we will have a great power competitor that is not Caucasian," Skinner added.
