A Chinese Pearl Harbor-style attack could end America’s days as a superpower

Now is the time for the Biden administration to take the China military threat seriously and come up with a plan to mitigate it beyond phony rhetoric and buzzwords.


If not, and if China smells weakness like Imperial Japan did, war in Asia could once again be a part of our future.

The US does not have consolidated Naval forces like we did at Pearl Harbor

China is incapable of taking over Taiwan, let alone the US Military which is the most powerful on earth

We had one in the winter of '19-'20....And the Powers That Be™ treated us all like we're the enemy.

As Trump said <para> "US nuclear submarines are the deadliest weapon on earth"

1/3 of the nuclear triad, so he's at least 1/3 correct.

If and when China ever decides to attack the US, you can bet i will mistake Biden/Harris bumper sticker cars and aiding and abetting the enemy so will consider them my enemies.
Right now, the Marxists in America better hope China never starts some shit. It will be a bad day for Communists.

Yeah, but if the Chinese keep buying land around US bases, the other two might get canceled.

 

[Oddball]

Yeah....

Everything after that is irrelevant.....Trump was partially correct.

One successful EMP strike is all it would take. Despite what our military could, and would do in retaliation; the US citizenry would become ungovernable. Which to a certain extent would greatly diminish the need for a military in its current sense...

The U.S. Navy is beyond powerful.
China couldn't begin to take on the U.S. Navy, it would be madness.
The U.S. Pacific coastline could sustain heavy-heavy damage - but China would essentially cease to exist in return.
Almost all of China's major cities/population are near the coast lines. Sitting ducks.

One EMP strike where?

US nuclear subs are all over the world, duh.

Everytime a scenario is brought up like this, everyone forgets that wars are not just started for the heckuvit.
No one would even think of attacking the United States. The result would be country ending for them.
There is nothing to gain, and everything to lose.

Why would China fuck up its access to American markets? That would irreparably harm its economy.

Saw a documentary about the military chess match going on around Taiwan.
It looks like China's Achilles Heel is oil.
In a conflict there is no way that China gets oil unless its from Russia, and China needs a lot of oil.
Luckily there is no deadline set for Taiwan to be taken over.
China is not a world-class military power yet. (but if the US dollar collapses due to the $33T Debt, all bets are off)

Of course, and lose 90% of it's cities in the process.
An attack against the United States is never going to happen, not in our lifetime or our grand childrens lifetime.
There has never been a time in human history where a civilization has possessed the power to destroy an entire country literally in minutes.
Post nuclear power is why there has been no world wars, and will not be. The United Nations doesn't have the damn thing to do with it.

The biggest danger is an EMP launched by religious clerics (like Hamas you leftist dumbasses)
They are the only ones crazy enough to do it

Your post says that the US would be like the movie "Red Dawn". Total nonsense.

My post said that one EMP over the US does NOT deter the US nuclear submarine fleet, so there would be no attackers left to invade dumbass.

Japan didn’t smell weakness as a reason for attacking. They smelled FDR fucking with them.

China knows neocons run American foreign policy. So, they know crazy people are in charge and more than happy to start WWIII to kill millions. They’ll be careful and wait for the empire to implode on its own.

No. That's definitely not what my post said. Nor meant. And when I said one strike; it's meant in keeping with the OPs "Pearl Harbor" style attack. Many, all at once. There would be very little need for a foreign military to "invade" as the US would be undone. Ungovernable from a central authority. Foreign military presence would most likely come at the request of what's left of the federal government trying to regain central authority over states, regions, and people...

Rather late .
They have Sleeper Cells everywhere and submarines in big numbers , particularly in your California region .

They want your farming land . Probably Baal Gates has bought it on their behalf already .
