The United States has a history of putting rivals on the world stage in a corner economically, obligating them to make the first moves to war.

Riiiiight
We forced Japan to attack us. Not that they were allied with NAZI Germany already at war in Europe.
Japan just HAD to attack us to get the oil it needed for their military.
Dumbest logic ever
China MUST attack us because they can’t figure out how to produce chips. Again that’s their only recourse.
The idea that they might just join the world is an impossible idea

“ While access to petroleum was crucial to militaries in the 1940s”
Got news for them…go find a military in the 2020s that petroleum isn’t crucial to.

China hasn't built fabrication plants for the highest-end chips yet because they haven't been forced to - such chips have been readily available on the open market. Now, they will steal whatever processes they need to build those plants from companies in Taiwan/South Korea/Singapore that their agents have already infiltrated and start producing their own.
Stopping exports might at most cause a delay of a few years in China's plans, but it isn't going to cut them off permanently.
