#6 CNN AM has repor that US Milfors have resumed MILEX wid their SOKOR counterparts.
The proverbial "SHTF" isn't occurring just yet, although the way things are slowly-n-steadily escalating between China + PH,Vietnam, + now Japan the US should expect higher frequency of "intense/intensive incidents" as China is still showing no sign that it is willing to delay, amend, or give up on any its "post-US" MilPol ambitions.
IMO, China is counting that as long as it doesn't open fire first at US Regional Allies, POTUS Obama = US per se won't officially invoke its various Mutual Defense treaties wid its Regional Allies, allowing China to continue both its military buildups + reclamation activities, etc. + carve out its Co-Superpower "Sphere(s) of Influence" in East Asia + IOR widout fear of direct US intervention.
I FEAR US REGIONAL ALLIES MAY STILL END UP BEING UJILATERA FRUSTRATED + DISAPPOINTED IFF HOPED-FOR US SUPPORT PROVES INEFFECTIVE IN STOPPING CHINA'S ACTVITIES.
The Scenario is there, + realistic, that US Regional Allies will abandon their treaties wid the US, + side wid China itself or else join an increasingly ANTI-US NAM.
WINNER = CHINA [+ Putinist Russia, Iran].
PUT ANOTHER WAY, DON'T FEAR "RED DAWN", FEAR "RED DAWN II" AS CHINA + PLA INVADE THE USA WHILE ANGRY US ALLIES JUST SIT BACK + DO NOTHING TO SUPPORT THE US AGZ ENEMY INVASION??? |
