aka a troll thread. If China ever decided to invade the US Russia would take the chance to grab some land from China before the US fully occupied it.

It's not I that is deep in denial, it's you that's totally submerged himself in fantasy land. When anyone brings up reality, you swat at it like a mosquito. Because you like your fantasy. And you don't like reality.
If it's not denial, then it's abject IGNORANCE. take your pick.

We have the ability to send a man to the moon and google map down to a roach on the ground, NSA tappin phones and we STILL can't stop an attack or invasion? DAMN! Spielberg could definitely write a movie about the ignorance piled up in this thread and call it The Labotomy Sessions...LOL

China has that same belief and they will just sit back and watch it happen. They have no reason to invade the US. They are currently shifting a surplus of their population to Africa. Actually nobody has a reason to invade the US right now via military takeover. It would be pointless and actually would economically cripple the entire world for a period of time.

LOL Do you seriously think Mexico even stands a chance?

The Mexican military is still stuck in the 1960s. They had combat capable horse mounted cavalry well into the 1990s. Their navy is made up of World War II era hand-me-downs from the US Navy.

If the Chinese PLA wanted to go through Mexico ... then guess what? The PLA is going through Mexico.

We can't stop all attacks. A single determined individual can do a lot of damage.

An invasion from China we could easily stop. But we wouldn't have to. Because there is no advantage to be gained by China from such an invasion.
