Beijing issues deadliest war warning yet as China declares it is now 'ready to defeat' US

CHINA has issued its deadliest warning yet as Beijing warned that the US will be "defeated" if the two superpowers go to war amid a tense stand-off over the South China Sea and Taiwan.

China has pledged to rapidly defeat the US in a military conflict in one of the country's most explicit warnings yet. China's Global Times, which is seen as a Government news outlet, published an editorial revealing the threat in response to joint military drills carried out by the US. The US joined drills with Japan, Australia and France this week in an intended show of force against Beijing.

However, instead of backing down, China appears to have been rattled, prompting a fierce rebuke in Beijing's state-run newspapers asserting confidence in Chinese military superiority.

RT America’s Alex Mihailovich said: "The Global Times put out an editorial saying the US would be defeated if any conflict broke out in the South China Sea.

"Many see the drills as a show of force aimed at China as Japan works towards consolidating military alliances in an effort to deter its neighbouring superpower

"However the drills appeared to irritate China rather than contain it."

I don’t think we will get much warning.

Biden works for the Chinese. That puts us in a very bad place.

I think that if anything, history teaches us that belligerent nations do signal their intentions in advance, if not their precise battle plans.

Translation: their container ships are ready to wreak havoc on any US fleet which is magnetically drawn to them.

Solution is very simple. Secretly give Taiwan some nukes.
Targets locked into Beijing and Shanghai.

On a toe-to-toe confrontation China wouldn't stand a chance...they know they wouldn't stand a chance and they know that we know they wouldn't stand a chance.

However, considering the crew that now occupies DC, our own government would pull all the stops to insure we snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Honestly, who in congress or the White House has the stomach for a fight?

A war between the U.S. and China will be fought in the western Pacific, assuming that it does not go nuclear. The U.S. Air Force still vastly outclasses China’s. Enormous damage could be done to China’s infrastructure with CONUS based assets.

China would be insane to actually provoke a war with the U.S. China couldn’t chase India out of the Himalayas. China expects to achieve its aim without the need for actual armed conflict.

Oh come now, the best thing that could happen to the US is an actual armed attack. Biden and company are owned by the Chinese, a real attack might force us to send in hoe Woke battalions with the tranny special forces.

Sounds to me that they are running scared and they should be.

The CHICOMS are just like the Muslims, always issuing hysterical shrieking, thinking the other guys will fall for the BS.
