[Peace] The Coming War with China

[Karen Aram]

Mort

In answer to your comments: I’ve read info. from liberal former State Dept., Officials, that there are those who question where we are headed in respect to China. Others are planning talks with Russia, to pull them further into the US orbit, this was the US strategy in the late 70’s in respect to China, when Deng Xiou Ping visited DC, shortly thereafter invading Vietnam with US approval. 

It’s quite unlikely to succeed this time, given Russiagate, and the friendship based upon mutual need, between Russia and China since at least 2012. China has the money, Russia has the military and Putin/Lavrov are very smart guys, they know the plan had been to takeover Russia first, then China. A reversal of that plan would be too obvious.
I don’t see Russia going along with it, unless regime change with a more Yeltsin like leader, comes into play. By “Yeltsin like” I mean, puppet of the USG.

As to Europe, already our European allies are backing away from us given economics and trade with China, now taking precedence. 

The question is will China react militarily to US provocations? They are generally not open to confrontation, they don’t want war, they want to do business and make money, so they keep on building while we keep on destroying. However, the Chinese know well their history of humiliation and will not allow it again. If the US interferes with the BRI as they no doubt are planning, if they force China, by blocking imports of oil or minerals necessary for production, to retaliate, which they could do by controlling the shipping lanes in Asia, anything is possible.
