Too bad China and Russia have no intention of minding their own business.
If you believe neither Vladimir Putin or Xi Jiping (or their successors) have not this nation’s destruction as their primary standing order, I advised reconsidering your position in the light of history.
The only thing that stands in the way of China conqering the entirety of the Asian Pacific Rim, or Russia taking all of Europe, is the United States.
Russia has no hesitancy with using nuclear weapons. “MAD” doctrine was never any real obstacle for them, because they have no repect for human life. Their mindset makes no provision for such “impractical” considerations. All that matters to the Russian psyche, and all that has ever mattered to their leaders, is power and global dominance.
The Russians are still as much the souless communist barbarians they were when existing as the Soviet State. Nothing changed in their mindset with the end of the Cold War and the fall of the USSR. They simply put on a different face for the purpose of deception. Russians are incapable of instituting or living under democratic principles. Their history is one of constant aggression against neighboring countries, and the subjugation and enslavement of peoples. The Russians will never change their stripes, because they are incapable of being anything other than a warmongering people - it is their basic nature.
Ditto for China, a state that has existed for millenia, and never peacefully. China’s history is also one of warlords and conquest. Their ambitions for global power are more ruthless that that of Russia - and the Chinese are much more insideous in their methods. They are better skilled in the art of espionage, economic subversion and cultural infiltration.
The unfortunate circumstance of having a leftist sock-puppet vegetable for a US president only makes our situation ten-fold more dangerous. At least Ukraine’s comparatively small military is making Putin’s forces pay a high price for the “special military operation.” I would wager too that China, seeing Russia’s inability to competently fight a conventional war, has its eyes set on Russia’s eastern provinces - which did at one time belong to China.
Well I actually agree with a lot of that. Ex communists in Russia and active ones probably/no certainly do want to see our destruction. As well as the laughing stock of an administration we have.
I think my point is still valid, in some ways whats it matter if we are destroyed by them or by being overwhelmed with 3rd world immigrants? To the point where our native population, system of law, culture, language , customs are assimilated onto some weird new polyglot blend.
I think there needs to be some balance of looking after our own affairs then seeing to international crisis that threatens our existence. As it is we seem to be overdoing the second and ignoring the first.
