China nothing. The Democratic Party will defeat the US before anyone else gets a chancce.
Sleeping giant is already up and had two smokes and a cup of coffee.
No one here noticed.
Who can't defeat the US? All they have to do is wait us out for... a month?
"China Could Defeat US"
How? By burying us under plastic lawn furniture?
So long as China cannot defeat the US in a military conflict over the US, I really don't care.
Since so much of our hardware comes from China, all they would have to do is wait till we run low and launch a counter offensive.
But hey, it is free trade and all that, and China would NEVER attack us right?
Then expect it all the time, any time, and treat it as a civilizational enemy it is.
No one can beat the US better than we can beat ourselves.
The Democrat Party beat them too it
China is quietly involving itself in other countries' politics, like providing money to politicians in the Philippines. You might remember the Philippines, they used to let the US have a base there ...
That could happen, especially if the Russians assist China with the takeover (By threatening nuclear attack against us if we intervene).
I there wouldn't be so many traitors and cowards at large, we could defeat every enemy in this galaxy.
This is the fuzzy headed thinking that passes for strategic thought in the think-tank world.
There is no way - no way! - that China could ever attack, invade, and occupy Taiwan; not with the US 7th fleet in the way.
First, any attack would be repulsed by air forces from the US and Taiwan.
Second, the invasion fleet will end up in Davy Jones locker, thanks to the US submarine force.
Third, any airborne invasion will be shot out of the sky, killing thousands of Chinese troops. Any lucky enough to make it to Taiwan will be attacked and killed by Taiwan forces. Reinforcements are impossible.
This article is just some amateur trying to get a headline.
Damn right!! Mogadishu, surrender in Iraq, Viet Nam. Funny all those defeats at the hands of the democRATS.
"Could" defeat also means could not. On a given day, anything "could" happen.
No chance.
It won't be, and currently is not, a foreign enemy working hardest to defeat us.
Goddam neohippies.
Time to crank up those cruise missle production lines. Don't wanna run out. Of course, we'd have to find a new supplier of all that "Made in China" crap.
NOTICE TO ALL FOREIGN CITIZENS and THEIR GOVERNMENTS!
(EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY)
1. As a sovereign nation, you have the same rights to govern your nation as we have. Whether freely elected or despotic tyranny, how you run your government and DOMESTIC affairs is between you and your leaders. If you people don't like how your government is behaving, we suggest you read some American history for the period between, say, 1774 and 1789. The world is awash in various sorts of small arms and other weapons. Getting enough to turn out your tyrant-du-jour ought not be a problem. Yes, many people will die (just as they did HERE in the late 1700s). It's the price of freedom. But -- and this is important to us -- our SOLDIERS will not be among them. But trust us when we tell you that the casualties of your revolution will pale compared to those you will suffer should we be forced to invoke Clause 3!
2. Please pay SPECIAL attention to the word "domestic" in number 1.
3. The MINUTE we become privy to firm, corroborated intelligence that you have plans to harm the United States or one of our recognized allies -- or, worst case -- DO, in fact carry out such an operation, the United States and any such allies who wish to assist will come to you and request that you cease and desist. If you refuse to do so, we will TURN MOST OF YOUR LAND INTO A SMOKING RUIN. We include in this list of threats AIDING, ABETTING, HARBORING, TRAINING OR SUPPLYING THOSE WHO, ALTHOUGH NOT CITIZENS OF YOUR NATION, MAKE PLANS TO HARM US OR AN ALLY.
We wish to live and trade in peace with all peoples -- BUT harm us or injure/kill American/allied citizens AND YOUR WORLD AS YOU HAVE KNOWN IT WILL SIMPLY GO AWAY -- FOREVER.
(If you have never seen it, slide on down to Blockbuster and rent "The Day the Earth Stood Still" with Arabic/Farsi subtitles, of course. REREAD 3 AND THINK "GORT.")
4. Once those smoking ruins have sufficiently cooled, we will put boots on the ground, clear any remaining resistance and seize your former property for the benefit of those who participated in the neutralization of the threat you posed. Casualties among our troops should be very limited because, as we think you have seen, the weapons possessed by the United States will leave very few to resist. REREAD 4 AND THINK 51st STATE!
QUESTIONS????
Thank you for your support in this vital matter.
The People of the United States of America
