China State Media Says Country Must Prepare for Nuclear War With U.S. After Biden Asks for COVID Probe
Newsweek ^ | 6/1/21 | Jenni Fink

Posted on 06/02/2021 6:35:50 AM PDT by C210N

Hu Xijin, the editor of the Chinese state-run newspaper the Global Times, considers enhancing China's nuclear program as being vital to the country's "strategic deterrence" against the United States.

China and the United States have been sparring over a range of issues, including the COVID-19 pandemic. Hu's op-ed came one day after Biden announced he instructed the Intelligence Community to "double down" on their efforts to identify the COVID-19 origin, including coming up with a list of questions that China has to answer.

The Intelligence Community hasn't ruled out the possibility that COVID-19 originated in a laboratory, a notion that China vehemently dismissed as being politically motivated and anti-science.

China: it was a bat and that is that.

While evidence surfaces of Fauci's ties to Wuhan lab.

Xi is pretty awful when it comes to saber-rattling. Other commie dictators were much better at it. He just comes off as impotent.

I guess they figure they can win a nuclear war by attrition, considering their population reserves.

Bring it on Byotches

Nothing times two equals nothing.

Investigating Trump supporters, on the other hand . . .

We created a monster. Blame Clinton for Loral and W for encouraging MFN status.

3GD doesn’t stand much of a chance against another round of extreme flooding.

Three Gorges Dam looks like it would collapse if it were hit by a strong fart.

I wonder if we could send in a couple of special ops guys armed with a can of beans...

A population of a billion or 10 would be no match for an all-out nuclear war. Unless our enemy has the ability to stop our nuke missiles and bombs, very few would survive in China, Russia, the U.S. or anywhere else as a result of all-out nuclear war. Human civilization would end as we know it.

It wouldn’t take much to send China back to its feudal days and that’s what it has been for thousands of years before about 70 years ago. The commies are just holding it together temporarily.

The CIA is already at the 3GD. Probably runs the place.

Probably. Their would be underground shelters that have containment for thousands for decades. Governments have them. It would be a different world to say the least. It would take thousands of years, if ever, to reestablish any kind of meaningful society.

My post was a threat right back at the chicoms. And like the chicoms it was bluster and trash talk.

“Trump would have this already handled.”

The MSM etc would be still denying even the possibility of it if the election hadn’t been stolen.

Actually I believe China says the virus originated from a biological lab at Fort Detrick in Maryland. And when it comes right down on who to believe, the Biden administration or the Chi Coms, I’m not sure.

Biden using the Clinton method of leadership: wait until you see which way the parade is headed then get out in front like you're leading it.
