Great Power War ^ | 8/26/18 | USA Features

Russia is planning to hold what Moscow has called the largest military exercises since 1981, to include joint training with the Chinese military and involve simulated nuclear weapons strikes, U.S. defense officials say.

As reported by the Washington Free Beacon, China will send more than 3,200 People’s Liberation Army troops along with 900 pieces of military equipment and hardware and 30 combat aircraft to Russia for the exercises, which have been dubbed Vostok-18, or East-18, according to the Chinese Defense Ministry.

Nice work Neocons. Start a new cold war with Russia, apply new sanctions every 6 months, blame them for everything wrong in America, arrest a little girl in from Russia who simply wants to cookie cutter the Second Amendment and NRA to Russia.

And then you’re -shocked- when they begin to form an alliance with China with both military and economic ties. Nice work morons.

I mean if we get nuked before this is all said and done, I’ll be cool. I have a bottle of those atomic bomb pills. Like potassium iodide or something.

But the rest of you guys are probably screwed.

It’s almost depressing to see Russia allying itself more and more with communist China, and also with Iran as their primary supplier of nuclear technology.

I know Putin is maneuvering to try and make Russia a world power again, but I often wonder what the Russia people, who have much more common heritage with the Western nations, what they really want for Russia and their future.

Unprovoked, with no warning, Russia and China will attack the U.S. for real.

It will happen when we are in the midst of God’s judgments - massive tsunamis on the west coast and massive earthquakes in California.

The strike will include New York City.

"China, Russia to hold massive joint military exercises that include nuclear missile drills"

Maybe it's a prelude to them declaring war on each other.

“Maybe it’s a prelude to them declaring war on each other.”

Maybe it’s a drill for when Lil Kim’s playground implodes. The Norks weren’t invited, after all.

I wouldn’t worry. It’s like the Germans/Japanese in WW2. The Japanese didn’t like the Germans. Didn’t trust them.

The outs always sort of align against the ins. Russia's long term strategic interests are not congruent with China's. The relatively thinly settled but resource rich eastern Siberia is certainly one of China's long term strategic objectives. What is foolish and counter productive is the sham conflict the necons have spun up with Russia. They are heavily bought off by China and need a bogey man to develop a Cold War 2 lite so they and their contractor and thinktank whores can rake in the bucks.

looks like someone’s worried about a resurgence of American power and influence after it reached its nadir under the feckless Obama administration.
