While I agree...... back in 1972 China was going to be our new big best buddy as a favored trade agreement with them was being thought out. The USA would show them how much better capitalism was than Stalin/ MAO's communist doctrine. Nixon's trip to China in 1972 sealed the deal which at the time looked good for American business and trade.
Now with dollars and all the trade that made China rich they think they can own the waters and land from North of Taiwan all the way down to Indonesia if not more.
The good news is China is having some serious problems of it's own presently, or the bad news is because of those problems they need a great war to get the population off their back ??
The huge Chinese Congress meeting where all the communist are gathered together would be a wonderful time for a big big IED or an ICBM to fall upon their heads; then let Taiwan run the show !!
Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong.
Silence those who disagree and you will never realize you are wrong.
