If we ever go to war with China, folks should be prepared to see war on our soil. The dayz of foreign wars thousands of miles from America are over. Very real possibility we could take casualties in our cities along the Eastern/Western coastlines. Nukes? Not a chance.

Screw China. When Trump as President cuts their water off on the imports China will collapse within.

They are GOING to attack someone. This is going to happen. A country doesnt build fake islands for fun or training.
Agree. I'd REALLY rather try and learn Russian.

When was the last time China attacked anybody?
To: Celerity
I fear going muzzle-to-muzzle with Chicom FAR more than I do Islam.Cower elsewhere then; China is teetering on collapse. I don't fear them in the slightest as they cannot innovate, they cannot match our true skills and they cannot even copy/steal ideas and put them into play with any precision. They are a country that is dependent on the world for their exports of trash. Invalidate the debt they hold of the U.S. and ban their imports to the U.S. and watch them crumble within weeks.

They are talking smack like Iran. If they sunk one of our ships we could stop all trade with them and then deny them access to oil with our submarines and surface ships. The great weakness of Asia is their lack of natural resources.
To: Williams
Of course they are going to nuke us.Never. No political will to commit suicide. We could have ended the Vietnam War, Korean War and Iran with on bomb each. But we didn't.

Nuclear bombs are like Doritos. You can’t launch just one.

I think Obama wants to provoke China into demonstrating just how ballsy they can be by invading Taiwan.
There may be some feeble attempt at Obama expressing his ‘discomfort’ with the invasion, but we all know nothing will really happen. My guess is Obama thinks if he allows China to reclaim Taiwan, they won’t fuss when America begins taking control of various ‘no-name’ islands near (but not too near) that part of the world. Yes, this is all speculation. But one has to wonder what the end result is that Obama wishes to be his legacy. One Worlding may also figure into Obama’s and the EU’s final vision of what the world should look like.
