"China Can Wipe Out US Forces In Asia If War Breaks Out, Says Report"

That's what Japan believed in 1941... turns out, they were being a tad overly optimistic.

They wouldn't be wrong in assuming that today; we don't have the domestic manufacturing infrastructure and production capacity today that we had then, plus the much longer lead times for today's tech on top of that.

A little reality check, kids: The USA won bigly in 1945, but have lost every damn war we've got into since.
Korea
Vietnam
Iraq
Afghanistan
Total clusterfucks, all!
China is a super-power, the USA is a geriatric wannabe.

Lemee qualify dat.

America has plenty of young people.

Worthless young people who were indoctrinated rather than educated.

Who really don't give a shit to whose tune they dance; they've been dancing to the Marxist Melody all their lives.

Snowflakes can't win hot wars.

Anyone red about this? Thoughts?





China Can Wipe Out US Forces In Asia If War Breaks Out, Says Report

Australian researchers have issued a new report claiming that China’s hi-tech ballistic missiles could cripple U.S. military bases and naval forces within hours if an armed conflict erupted in the Western Pacific between the two superpowers.

The 104-page report was published by the United States Studies Centre at the University of Sydney where they analyzed the U.S. military strategy and spending as well as alliances in the area.

The report merits some scrutiny as even some Chinese military experts still believe that the United States is the superior power in the region as evidenced by the USS Ronald Reagan, a Nimitz-class nuclear-powered supercarrier, and it’s entourage docked in the Philippines and the powerful Seventh Fleet based in Japan

The report accurately states that China is making rapid technological advancements. China is also expected to commission its second aircraft carrier, a yet-to-be-named type 001A nuclear carrier, soon. The U.S. fleet has 11 nuclear powered carriers so the prospect of China overpassing the United States for military supremacy is remote.


South China Sea and other Asian waters.

The lead author of the report, Ashley Townshend, told This Week in Asia about China, “As its power rises, it may well be emboldened to make a play for parts of the first island chain, including Taiwan, which would seriously constrain the security horizons for all concerned.” The statement was in reference to island chains that stretch from the Japanese archipelago to Borneo.


The strongest point in the report is focused on the capabilities of China’s Rocket Force that could be deployed by the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). The PLA is armed with a vast array of missiles including:

• An estimated 1,500 short-range ballistic missiles.
• 450 medium-range missiles
• 160 intermediate-range missiles
• Hundreds of long-range ground-launched cruise missiles.
• Some missiles described as “carrier killers,” such as the DF-21D, with a range of up to 1,500 kms.

These are all conventional ballistic missiles able to make precision strikes on Singapore and other large American interests in South Korea and Japan. The Australian think tank report points out that China could deploy the missiles in a surprise attack in the hours before U.S. reinforcements could arrive, giving China a huge advantage at the start of any battle.

China has a long term plan to overtake the US as the world number one super power. That plan does not include military force, it's all about lying, cheating and stealing, not shooting. Until Donald Trump came along it was working tremendously well.

We don't have to lose a hot war. We can battle to a draw most likely. The good part is that the snowflakes will man it up or die. To have the west coast affected would be to our favor. China will expand its influence at some point. However we have South Korea and Japan as wild cards. I used to abhor this potential. There seems to be no way out to wise us up. To many spoiled people arguing and fighting over stupidity at home. Massive resources exhausted for moderate success in uplifting people. Agendas masquerading social justice as a front for tyranny has pretty much given us a future not to promising on freedom. We have lost rights now and not a word by the Progs at all on it. And they control almost everything.

If China beats us

It will be with a Cyber Attack

China is already conducting cyber attacks on the US.

Thousands of DOS and phishing attacks come from addresses within China.

China Telcom, a state-owned utility, deliberately advertises networks not located in China for force traffic to be diverted through China, where it can be exploited.

What´s all that nonsense for? It is already too late. The companies gave all their know how to China.

Unverified and unidentified "Australian researchers"? My guess is that the "report" was crafted by agents hostile to the United States and the Trump administration to try to influence U.S. foreign policy.

And the first three should have never happened since they had nothing to do with security of the United States. They were wars of political ambitions and imperialism.

Usually these reports are used to justify a huge increase in Military spending. It was reports from think tanks that told us we needed the Zumwalt Destroyers to be able to support Special Operations fifty miles inshore. It turns out it would be cheaper to send a plane after all.

Reports tell us the Government needed all that surveillance crap, and then the Boston Bombers slip through the cracks because of a typo in the spelling of the name. The solution? Another billion dollars in programs according to the reports.

The Domino theory to justify fighting in Vietnam didn’t seem to materialize after all.

Today we hear about reports where White Nationalists are the greatest threat to the nation regarding terrorism. The FBI needs more authority and of course money to combat this threat.
