Could well be a set up.
China could engage Japan over something, sink her pipsqueak “navy” and seize the islands she wants. Occupy Taiwan at the same time—talk nice to USA about controlling North Korea.
At the same time, China moves on Vietnam and India, as Pakistan moves on India, and Iran moves on the gulf and Iraq as well as hits Israel hard. Cuba could move on Gitmo? Russia move on Belarus or Georgia. what could the USA do? Obama would urge calm and go to UN. Russia could threaten peace as well. In one we we could be tossed out of Asia. As a condition of peace Japan would have to expel all US bases, same with south Korea. If things go nuclear all bets are off. Obama said he would never drop the bomb.
bump!
Lots of possibilities...
It’d be a mess. a “game changer”. The US would be a joke after that.
