China is getting pretty bold.
>> The Chinese also brought in three truckloads of supplies to replenish 50-odd troops
Look for more trucks in about an hour, when they’re hungry again.
I guess they have all of the regulars at the N. Korean border; that left only the 50 odd ones to go to India.
maybe India can throw a few bucks to Vietnam and have them kick China’s butt again
They’d better be careful, or Obama will draw a Red Line!
History has shown that this approach works more often than not.
What’s China up to/ Troops massed on their borders with DPNK and India...all the while threatening Japan and the Phillipines. Why so belligerent and why now?
If a foreign power marched troops 28 kilometers into our territory and set up shop 19 kilometers into our country, we would be at war.
Exactly what are “ODD” troops? Maybe the Chinese are sending they’re butt boys to the border.
First, my thanks to all who replied to topic I created on China. Don’t think there will be a repeat of the 1962 India-China War, because war would be stupid. India & China have disputed territory for years. China support North Korea during the 1950-53 Korean War, North Vietnam during Vietnam & so on.
China & Vietnam have long turbulent history going back centuries with the last war between China & Vietnam in 1979. Ho Chi Minh during the French-Indo China War which ended in independence for Cambodia, Laos & Vietnam (divided after 1954 Geneva Conference into N & S. Vietnam @ 17 Parallel) said that he would rather smell French turds for a few years than smell Chinese turds for the rest of time.
With China & India, both nations have nuclear weapons as does India’s enemy Pakistan. China & India are both world superpowers but as China has gotten militarily powerful since 1950, China has wanted Tibet (which they have), Vietnam, India border & Taiwan. The Orient has a long turbulent history. It would be best that China become a dimilitarized nation. Chinese people are fine & the nation is interesting with nice tourist attractions but the politics of Communist China is wrong. @least Russia got rid of Communism in 1989 though Putin has gotten to powerful in dealing with those who oppose him.
China has penetrated various parts of India that way on several occasions during the past decade or so.
