First, you’re a neocon in my book. Constantly pushing for confrontation with China certainly fits the neocon label.
Second, tell me again how many wars and coups has China committed since WWII? Now compare that number to the US. What does this means to you?
China hasn’t surrounded the US with military bases and a huge navy, have they? The US has done this to China. Does this mean anything to you?
China is an economic powerhouse and if the criminals running the US government (Neocons) continue confrontation, they will easily surpass the US military in capabilities. So, let’s just be friends with China.
You like to condemn China for its tyrannical actions, while ignoring the equally tyrannical actions of the US and your own country.
Ask India about Chinas military.
A quite refresher for you:
1. China has significantly increased its presence and assertiveness in the South China Sea, a region that is strategically important and rich in resources. China claims a vast majority of the South China Sea, marked by the so-called "Nine-Dash Line."
This has led to the construction of artificial islands, military installations, and increased naval patrols. China’s actions have been met with resistance from neighboring countries like Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei, and Taiwan, and have raised concerns among international stakeholders, particularly the United States.
2. East China Sea: China has also been involved in territorial disputes in the East China Sea, particularly concerning the Senkaku Islands (called Diaoyu Islands in China), which are administratively controlled by Japan but claimed by China. China has ramped up its maritime patrols and engaged in confrontational tactics to assert its claims over these islands.
3 Border Disputes with India: On land, China has had ongoing border disputes with India, particularly in the regions of Aksai Chin (administered by China but claimed by India. This has lead to deaths on both sides, do you recall?
4. Belt and Road Initiative (BRI): While not purely territorial in nature, China's Belt and Road Initiative has significant geopolitical implications. Including long term, into obtaining foreign state run land and assets.
Do you know the consequences in some cases when the debtor nation defaults on their loans?
5. Expansion into Tibetan Regions: In Tibet and Xinjiang, the Chinese government has implemented policies that emphasize cultural assimilation, infrastructure development, and settlement of Han Chinese populations, which alters the demographic and cultural landscape of these regions.
6. China's approach towards Taiwan and Hong Kong also reflects its territorial ambitions. In Hong Kong, following the 2019 protests, China has applied more stringent control through the National Security Law, effectively reshaping the territory’s autonomy.
Now, take some of these expansionary objectives which are FAR more expansionary than America, right? FAR more expansionary than the U.S in both territory and control.
You couple the above with Chinas record expansion of their military, especially their navy which is primarily to help with offensive objectives, not defensive objectives which the army expansion would provide.
Wake up please, WWIII is far closer than you think. We had better win when it occurs.
