in war games simulating great-power conflict in which the United States fights Russia and China, the United States gets its ass handed to it.
If a war broke out between the United States and China, the clash between two of the world’s most powerful militaries would be horrific. And the United States could very well lose.
The question is what could actually cause the United States to fight China. What if China invades and occupies Taiwan, a democratic US partner and arms customer? Would America actually risk World War III? What if China forces its claim to the Senkaku Islands, which the United States considers to belong to Japan? Does that fall within America’s treaty commitments to defend its ally?
The Chinese don’t have to comprehensively defeat the United States militarily in order to achieve their near-term objectives
