On China, am thinking more along the lines of a "Leave the World Behind" movie scenario.

I doubt it. They have nothing to gain from a nuclear exchange. Akin to a game of Go, China is more likely to try to steadily smother the competition.

which part are whoppers and Id like to see how you say so.




Most transfer drivers are in fact chinese and russian. To not know this means you have to ignore everything.


Drop/hook that requires no native language skills, largest labor shortage in the us is: __________________ (hint, truck drivers) - do the math, google it, or ask my brother who runs a national trucking company. IN FACT, when the hubballo on supply chain came out in the port(s) of long beach, wasnt it decried that mayor pete effectively blocked NATIONALS from getting the card, and rescinded the provisional, but were still allowing foreign nationals? (hint: yes)



As for chinese owning us farmland, do they or do they not own, as of 2021 appx 385000 acres? (hint: yes) Are those or are those acres within or not within the 340 range of the 'container missiles' they now mass produce? (hint: yes)



but but but wait you say, other countries own us farmland - ok but other countries are not making container missiles, nor aiming them at us nor at war with us. China, checks all 3 boxes.



340 miles, if we have an airforce base in Minot ND (hint: we do) then pretty much SOUTH DAKOTA is in range, and we are assuming they made no updates in the next block since 2016 when they debuted them.


the MSM (mostly NBC that you read earlier) is apparently in on the scam and reported they have no land NEXT to an airforce base. as in errant golf ball shot NEXT. No one said they have land NEXT to an airforce base. They have land NEAR an airforce base. Not so much the USCG (kearneysville wv) or any of the naval bases since they tend to be on water where farmland fares poorly. what with waves and such.



and mind you, if you follow the armed services cmte in BOTH the HOUSE and SENATE, they both discuss this with some frequency. You looked this all up right?


so, since we now both agree, its actually real and true, I ask again: IS this a problem?

Absolutely not. That has never been the Chinese way. And their entire economy depends on American and the West. China always takes the long view, centuries long at times. And they are winning slowly over time. And funding their victories with our money buying cheap made goods. :We worry about the next quarter or at best the next year. They think about the next century. Any actual shooting War with China will be brought about by us. Either thru a direct Attack or more likely a false flag event. China has no reason to attack us militarily, they are slowly winning. We on the other hand have every reason to attack them militarily because it's obvious we are slowly losing. And only outright War(limited of course/cough) will prevent America's decline from being the World's most powerful Nation.

The Warmongers are insane enough that they think they can just do some limited strikes, deplete China's military and than impose a peace. The Warmongers are insane.

Since none of them are likely jesus, Im like 99% sure they will have to walk in from either mexico or canada and you sorta indicated that while they ARE walking in from mexico as we speak, there is an easier way.


we just wanna know what this easier way is.



I would also assume they sorta would come from a westerly direction, since, well china is kinda over ------> there. (points to the west) But again, we are faced with the water.



And the sharks.


Great Whites just LOVE our west coast. Especially if you are dressed as a surfboarder

That's impossible - it is still extremely difficult for anyone to defeat America militarily. Yeah, you can bomb an important base or territory of the US or whatever, but they'll get flattened as a US military response.

The only way to probably defeat America is most likely what Osama bin Laden had said - through a network of terrorist attacks and other warfare (electronic, electricity, etc) that will bring down America's economy and "destroy it within." Attacking it with planes, bombs, tanks is just ridiculous due to our strength and geography.

Now that doesn't stop China from causing other shenanigans around the world by attacking Taiwan and other areas hoping the US doesn't get involved.

Yeah. Its just a silly idea.

They probably aren't even stupid enough to rush in and try to physically take Taiwan.

The Russian Far East might be a possible target for them. Russia bullied them out of part of it in the 1800s. It has resources, especially oil. The Chinese are pretty racist. They don't want a colonial empire. Taiwan, the South China Sea oil fields and the Russian Far East are the limits of their territorial ambitions.

Nah. They've built themselves up from our giving away jobs and technology to them (thanks traitorous politicians and companies). They are strong on their own, and with their ties to other big countries around the world.

We aren't a threat to them, and they don't need to do anything to us.

Get out of Chicken Little mode...

Why would China even need to fire a single bullet at us? All they have to do is wait for a generation or two as we destroy ourselves.
