i fear the article is right. The next attack will be a Cyber One. The target will be the electrical grid. No juice to run computers, No computers, no modern America.
I predict the following:
A) War with China in the next few years. In this China will seize Taiwan in a skillful Trojan Horse move. We will send the fleet and lose one or two carriers. Because the Chinese can hit the west coast—no nukes will be used. Next China will crack down on any freedom movements they have, and move on Viet Nam. In this war, that will last less than two months or so—the USA will lose. We will give up Guam and make lots of concessions. Millions of Chinese workers will come to the USA. Mandarin will be spoken more than Spanish in the future. This will happen in the next four years.
B) Germany will continue to dominate Europe but not just with money. They will turn back the tide of Islamic peoples and make a treaty with Russia as the USA becomes weaker. Look to the Germans to move into Africa (to secure raw materials) Poland will be forced to give land to the new German Reich. Europe under Germany will move into South America using Argentina as a base.
C) Russia will seize Belirus and the Ukraine as well as move south into what is Iran. The fate of Israel will be decided in Moscow of all places. A Shah will be placed on the thrown of Iran and the Mullahs put in jail.
D) India will also grow into a semi-imperialist power moving into Pakistan, Nepal, Burma, and east Africa. They will become a massive trade and production center and even go into space.
E) America will lose in this world as even England turns her back on us to embrace Berlin. The Good note: We will gain Cuba and parts of Mexico. It will be a time when America tightens her belt and continues to be a place of innovation and education. In Time Canada will become part of the USA .
That is how I see it.
We could obliterate China. If Obama did anything else, there would be a revolt.
