When we read the papers or turn on the television (for those of us who have television), hardly a day or two passes by without the mention of new (or ongoing) actions by the Chinese government in a military capacity. Within the past year alone, China has extended her reach steadily beyond her own territorial waters and nearby sea-lanes. She has participated in numerous exercises, some of them jointly with foreign nations. Anyone can clearly witness her aggressive, outwardly expanding policies regarding territory and flexing her muscle.
The most recent maneuver comes on the heels of the Russian actions in Syria. China (if you recall) just sent a carrier through the Suez Canal to support Russia’s actions, “against ISIL/ISIS”…whatever the boogeyman/Emmanuel Goldstein is currently labeled. In reality, China is forming a partnership in a power play that may hold dire ramifications for Western society. These ramifications are likely to be economic as well as military.

I would consider them liberators when you look at who is governing Sacramento and who currently occupies the WH.
My guess is that they’re more interested in Taiwan than San Franciso and the supply lines are quite a bit shorter.
With all the firepower in the US, they couldn’t land troops here fast enough to establish a beachhead.
Darn, I was looking forward to shorter delivery times myself. :-)
Why don't they just foreclose on us instead?
How is an invasion force going to make it 1/4 of the way around the planet across an ocean controlled/owned by our Navy? How will they be able to sustain the lines of support and supply they will need to sustain a push inland? How will they do this AND maintain the force needed to protect their own borders and keep the population under control?
Assuming we'd actually USE some of that firepower.
How do you say: Don’t kill me, I like Wonton Soup.
... because sending a million man invasion force across
the Pacific undetected is as likely as the moon landing
being a hoax. Go for it.
I mean, if we're going to play fantasy, might as well drop a tiny bit of reality in there in the end.
China's not going to invade the west coast.
Obamason!
China, you can have all the west coast states if you promise to keep them.
Maybe with Chinese tourists armed with cameras but not military.....
SHTF desperately trying to be relevant... FAIL!
HAAA! Now that was funny
I’m still waiting for *any* confirmation that the only aircraft carrier the chinese have transited the Suez. So far, I’ve only seen this report in places like infowar, worldnutdaily, and debka.
“A rifle behind every blade of grass”
I'd say even Obama could get a decent price for California!
