Thought you might say that. These are all border countries that China believes are historically part of China. Which they were. The US and Europe do not border ancient China. Didnt say they were angels. Just not global imperialists

They have zero historical track record for military adventures unlike the US which seems addicted to them.

My post was specifically about the military threat, not economic.

So you think they’re waiting to strike the U.S.? Based on what evidence?

They’re not the threat Republicans and Democrats love to get foaming at the mouth hyperbolic about though.

The New York Times opinion articles are so much cold shite. Ooh here’s an opinion from a right wing Zionist who will never lift a rifle about how righteous this war is. Yeeesh. Oh here’s another one pretending to understand Trump logic by divining tea leaves.

MAGA: β€œWe don’t want to be the world’s sheriff”

ANTIFA: β€œSo, where’s the sheriff at now?”

MAGA: β€œLast I saw he was on his horse heading for Tehran…”

The one thing Trump as demonstrated is just how much China and Russia are not military threats. In the 50’s to the 80’s there would have been a military response to attacking one of their allies. Now? Crickets πŸ¦—

MAGA is still hallucinating that saying 'Democrat' Party instead of 'Democratic' Party is a stinging rebuke of the left... but it remains a fine example of where 'illiteracy' in life will get you... nowhere.
