I think a civil war here is more likely.
China or russia.Back around the Gulf War... early 90s, the church I attended, the pastor liked to do prophecy sermons. I was never big on that stuff as it depends on the interpretation. Who really knows?
Anyway, I remember him saying the USA would be a non-factor in the closing days as he felt there was nothing biblical that could be interpreted for the USA. I remember sitting there thinking, "Yea, right." Now, I am not so sure. We are destroying ourselves from within because it seems we are becoming more tribal, and we have a completely incompetent ruling class that exacerbates everything, probably on purpose.
The main takeaway is if we become irrelevant, someone will fill the void. And depending on the interpretation, China and Russia do play a big role in the closing days.
I would not put anything past china. That country has no problem killing off it’s own. Eventually they’ll start doing something non-ethical.It's weird you bring this up, I had a dream last week where I witnessed a couple jets in a dogfight overhead. How far out of the question is it that we see Chinese and/or Russian fighter jets in our airspace within the next 20 years?
The left keeps pushing for it.I think a civil war here is more likely.
Maybe if China or Russia becomes the aggressor, we have our boogeyman that we as Americans can focus our energies on instead of at each other.
You are probably correct. And I know hope is not a strategy.You'd think, right? But we have a recent example that proves otherwise, don't we?
Specifically, a truly evil regime, China, released a virus on the world that killed millions. Response by lefties: frothing hatred of Donald Trump and not one ******* negative word about China. NOT. ONE. NEGATIVE. WORD.
So I don't think so.
We are such ******* nowadays, I'm just not sure we have the stomach for what would happen if things start going to hell in Asia.
Okay, it's on now, del. The quisling transgender, pansexual army of bloated lesbians shall NOT be defeated. In "Words with Friends," I mean. Actual war? No thanks - call in the wHyTe sO0pReMaCisT army for dirty business like that.
Ukraine
holodomor was a character in G.O.T. correct?Speaking of Ukraine, without looking it up, anybody know what Holodomor is?
The downright genocidal history of that poor place is disgusting. **** the Bolsheviks.
Thanks Gen. Milley!Yeah but our military is progressing faster than China's on transgender rights and wokeness, so there
Yes.Speaking of Ukraine, without looking it up, anybody know what Holodomor is?
The downright genocidal history of that poor place is disgusting. **** the Bolsheviks.
Don't discount India and Pakistan. A flash point. Muslim vs Hindu. Deadly enemies.So I've been thinking lately about if we are close to ever having another world war. And while nothing will ever come again like the size of the European and Asian theaters in WW2, there IS a slight potential for some really nasty **** going down that will create interesting questions on how the west would react to aggression.
I mean, am I the only one thinking there could a coordinated attack by some of the so-called "Axis of Evil" countries to somewhat expand and claim what they want? What happens if simultaneously:
1. China invades Taiwan
2. Russian invades Ukraine
3. North Korea invades South Korea (with China's help)
4. Iran/Syria/Hezbollah start a war with Israel (with Russia's help)
How would the west react? How far down the war path would our leaders and the western community, already so fractured ideologically, be willing to go?
I used to think this was kind of far-fetched, but there are signs on all four fronts that something "could" happen. And we KNOW all these powers (Russia, China, North Korea and Iran) talk to each other. They may not be "friends" but they are friends by proxy against growing sanctions, and public opinions of the west. Who's to say they don't try to shake up the world order a bit and think they can get away with a bit of a "land grab" while the west argues about climate change and racism.
With a dementia patient as President, a fractured EU, with arguably the only "glue" leader in the EU (Merkel) now gone, with huge left/right fractures in western politics (they can't even agree the sky is blue), with a new Covid variant and global pandemic hanging over the world, with the possibility of inflation and weakening of the dollar.
Sounds kind of like the perfect time if you are going to try something this aggressive, no?
Is this the same Bob dat be steppin?If China were ever to take a page from the American "How to Start a War" book, they'd just send some official over to Taiwan for a visit and then be SHOCKED when that Chinese official was assassinated by a Taiwan national. Then, they roll in to exact some revenge.
Or better yet, fly a passenger plane over Taiwan and become OUTRAGED when it is shot down by a Taiwan-fired missile. Well, they'd have no choice but to respond with military force and when the smoke cleared... Bob's your uncle, Taiwan no longer exists as a country.
I think it would be different if it were a shooting war. Therefore we probably won't see one. They'll just keep using the present tactic of utilizing the useful idiots to corrode the country out from within. They're pretty much done. Give it another 10-15 years if that.You are probably correct. And I know hope is not a strategy.
But I hope we never have to find out and I hope you would be wrong
Well, they pay our President more than we do.China will support civil war in this country. And, China has already stated that civil unrest in this country works in their favor. They funded BLM for riots and destruction. They know there will always be at least 2 sides to any issue here and the conflict will benefit them. China already has a firm grip on us, via political influence.
