#2 Well, you helped so much thus far.

I should consider..
F You.
Step in anytime you like you MAO idiots. I have sent the bill to you anyway.

If you continue your aggressiveness in Taiwan and the String or Pearls and the Hindu Land- You may take into account on what I hold over your head in your region.

I want to keep Taiwan, South China Sea in FONA Patrol and adherence. I want your movement into Asia Proper monitored. I saw how you did this before in history and see how you do it now in Africa.

You are speaking of sinking American Naval Carriers as you tell your Military to prep for war. And you as much as laid claim to Taiwan yesterday.


So, XI;
If you really were the most powerful Man in the Universe, What would you do about China Aggression?

#9 "any Latin American countries experienced political change in 2018, with presidential elections in three of the largest countries—Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia—and transitions in Chile, Costa Rica, Cuba, El Salvador, and Paraguay. Meanwhile, several long-term China partners, such as Peru, Argentina, and especially Venezuela, have been entangled in political scandals. How are relations evolving between China and Latin America, and between China and individual countries in the region? And how do China’s interests and relations in the region differ from those of the United States? —Natalia Cote-Muñoz"

#12 My guess is that with the recent oppression of Muslims in western China, they simply don't want all the jihadi's looking towards them. Which may or may not be a real threat.

#15 China borders Afghanistan for 122 miles. If the SHTF after we "responsibly leave", they can step up to the plate. Their supply lines and logistics are better-suited for brokering a peace in Afghanistan. IOW, their flea circus or sphere of influence.

#18 Let us suppose the ChiComs want to take over Afghanistan. How do we stop them without our first taking over Pakistan? Sorry, this looks like a Bridge Too Far to me, let the Taliban "enjoy" the tender mercies of The Middle Kingdom -- they deserve each other
