China may have the desire to war with the US, and they may have enough capability begin such a war, but do they have the resources to maintain the conflict for a long period?

Are the Chinese able to attack America’s heartland?

I believe the US has the capability to attack anywhere in China.

The Chinese has two aircraft carriers? How many American submarines are tailing those carriers at this time? If war came those two carriers would be at the bottom of them sea withing hours.

Do the Chinese have enough fuel to maintain a prolong attack?

Do the Chinese have enough food?

I am not an expert on China’s capabilities but I don’t believe we would have to kill their military, only destroy their ports, and destroy their refineries.

Having the desire to hurt your enemy and having the capability are two different things. So the question is, do the Chinese have the ability to win a armed conflict with the US?

Some would say that Vietnam didn’t have the ability to win an armed conflict with the US.

How did that work out again?
