Not real concerned about a Chinese first strike on the mainland.

They won't irradiate it, they own most of it...

That think won’t get close to anything American that is active and awake. The radar signature will be that of a flying barn.

So, who is going to be searching for it, that far out? Not like there ore OTH radars deployed for bombers from China. Certainly none in Hawaii.

Well as long as they have a ghost of a hope of getting dough or any other thing of worth back from the USA, they’ll leave it alone. This sounds more show than anything else.

Thing to remember about Chinese claims. They are never verified. For example their stealth fighter turns out to be a dud.

I suspect that China’s military is more likely to be used against its enemies in South East Asia. On its present course, America’s enemies won’t need to attack; the soft coup in Washington will win any war for them without a shot being fired.

Long Beach is THEIR port, not “ours”

The communists bought it with cash

Clinton hasn’t been President for a long, long time

Obsession leads to inaccurate conclusions

Communist Chinese generals have been tapping our technology since the Senior Bush administration

And driving the FBI crazy doing it

I detest doing business with China. Everything I need is made in China now. Sick.

Well the Russkies had backscatter radar, and then there’s satellites and HUMINT watching launches, etc.

OTH radars are huge fixed systems with one aspect. Satellite technology is only as good as what you are looking for (if you aren't expecting it, you won't be looking for the right thing). Both OTH and satellites would require tracking/deconflicting all transpacific commercial flights. As for HUMINT, I wouldn't rely on that coming out of China.

The best way to prevent the Chinese from launching a tactical nuclear strike against our Pacific territories would be to ensure they understand that we wouldn't consider it to be tactical, and that 500,000,000 Chinese would die in the aftermath.

500 million - that’s about as many as the Chicoms have killed of their own people. That does not deter them.

You nailed it. Between cruise missiles, ICBM’s, short range missiles launched from sub’s or surface ships, shipping containers, Ect Ect, if they are determined to hit us it’s unstoppable. They have to know and believe they are going to be killing themselves, their children, grandchildren, everything they care about will be incinerated. Assured mutual destruction. Peace through strength.

I'm pretty certain that losing 50% of their population, their military, and their core industrial capacity is an issue for them.

Everything we buy, is made in China.

STOP SUPPORTING CHINA.

Build and export things from the USA.

They own more than that...Much of everything you and others are buying in the U.S. are Communist Chinese products...Most of it is shipped out of Long Beach to a store near you.

Merry Christmas~
