Ignoring obviously planetary suicides such as space warfare, I'm now starting to think that the US leadership is delusionally suicidal. As we all know, the US failed miserably at its “war games” test of an Iraq invasion. There is serious doubt whether the US could even seriously challenge Iraq.
So… What does Rumsfield say when asked if the US could fight multiple wars at the same time? He replied that if China took back Taiwan (as it has said it is doing), the US “had the firepower to respond and win decisively”.
Not a chance. The US is far too strained financially and militaristically right now. If America goes to war with China, China will win, and it will decimate the US in the process. Better make sure your kanji tattoos say what you think they do.
I now issue my statement to the ants^H^H^H^HChinese on the eve of invasion:
"What we've seen speaks for itself. The American nation has been taken over 'conquered', if you will by the Chinese. It's difficult to tell from this vantage point whether they will consume the captives or merely enslave them. One thing is for certain, there is no stopping them; the Chinese will soon be here. And I, for one, welcome our new Asian overlords. I'd like to remind them that as a trusted Internet personality, I can be helpful in rounding up others to... toil in their underground sugar caves."
That's right — the statement above is stupid. But the introduction isn't. If America wants to play games with the middle east, that's one thing. But starting to play these military posturing games with a superpower like China is a game far more scary and dangerous than any game played during the cold war with the Soviets.
War between China and the US would be devastating on a global level. I really hope that each nation has the foresight and self control not to allow such a thing to happen. Sadly, I think it's clear that the current US government does not. That's painfully clear in fact.
