Truth be told, this is a salutory development. Don't forget that our first brush with the jihad happened under Reagan when our troops were supposed to be peacekeeping in the wake of the Lebanese civil war (unless you count the run in under Jefferson between us and the Barbary Pirates).
The jihadis in the Sudan are as likely to take offense at the Chinese as at any other non-Muslims, so we may get to be allies of convenience with China during the current unpleasantness, a circumstance which, in my estimation, decreases the likelihood that a hot war with the PRC will be the next conflict facing us. Don't forget they already have their own Muslim problem in their west.
im sorry but communists get along quite well with jihadists because they are the source of weapons and training,
so i dont see us holding hands into the bright future with chicoms
no way no how
Perhaps. Sure hope they don't take the path of convenient peace that they took centuries ago.
