China is the second-largest foreign creditor of the United States, after Japan. The two countries remain in dispute over territorial issues in the South China Sea... Chinese intelligence presented the report to top Communist Party officials last month, warning them about the fallout from China’s handling of the Coronavirus pandemic. Leaders were warned the backlash could lead to an armed confrontation with the United States.
In the USSR, schools used to indoctrinate the kids into thinking that there would eventually be a war, bigger than WWII, and that the Warsaw Pact would win and control the Earth. The imbecile Khruschev beat his shoe on the podium at the UN and shouted "we will bury you!" (literally, we will attend your funeral). So, how did that work out? I mean, other than the pro-Soviet-era trolls?
This appears to be a contingency scenario, pretty serious, but also pretty routine. As with the leftist coronavirus demagogues, the Chicoms prefer the spectre of blood in the streets, rather than the real thing, realizing that a shooting war with the US would result in their complete annihilation in about twenty effin' minutes.
China's delusional - worse than the old USSR if they think ANY country (other than North Korea) would put up with the Chinese moving their totalitarian hellhole to ANY of our soils.. Chinese leaders are delusional.
