it boils down to china, and I think we are scared of them. They own half our debt, have nukes, and trade and the economy is dependent on their communist economy.
"They own half our debt........"
Sickening, isn't it?
You are right in part, but the bottom line is that at this moment, we absolutely are not capable of a large-scale land war in Asia. NK will have to be dealt with in other ways, whether it's behind the scenes pressure on the ChiComs, arming Japan, or whatever. There are military realities here.
You got it. Add $ 100.00 a barrel oil to what you just mentioned. The United States and Israel have just been neutered by the communists, Democrats, and muslims.
