The Ruskies are in panic mode. They will soon realize we are the only ones saving them from having to learn Mandarin real fast.

The Sino part of the world needs oil. And it’s a lot shorter haul for them to go into Russia than the mideast.

To the younger set here:

Get used this type of BS. Many of us older members here grew up with this Pravda Propaganda crap from 1960 to 1990. It never ceases to amaze us.

...not to mention them being red faced (pardon the pun) over that “latest” radar equipment they sold to Syria and Iran, which failed miserably as the IAF shut it down earlier this month.

You make an interesting point.

If China invaded Siberia, who would intervene? All the US offers China at this point is a market for goods. I’m not sure the Russians would use nukes on the Chinese either. They’d have to be able to go back in some time and use the land again.

It may serve China, and even the rest of the world, if they did take Russia out.

It would freak Western Europe out, however.
