Chinese caught red handed planning for war

[scruffy]

You may recall that a Chinese ship was recently busted cutting an undersea cable near Sweden.

Well now, they've been caught again, mapping undersea cables in southeast Asia.

There is only one purpose for such mapping, which is to cut the cables in the event of war.

The activity follows several high-profile cable cuts, with Taiwan detaining one Chinese crew on suspicion of sabotage.

The Chinese are unquestionably on an expansionist jag. They want control over resources - minerals, raw metals, that kind of thing. They're already all over Africa, that's been going on for 20 years - but now they're getting downright bold, with regular intrusions into the territorial waters of Taiwan, Japan, and the Phillipines.

Each of these countries is a US treaty ally, and the US is now bolstering its defense position in all of these areas.

15 years ago I said we'd be at war with China within 20 years, and so far we're right on schedule.

Paranoiacs Need to Grow a Pair

Not our Sphere of Influence. The Chinese are both competition and customers, not enemies.

The Asians who feel threatened by them, if any actually do, must pay for their own defense. And they'll buy it from us.

For decades, the Globalist parasites at home, who also don't care about making our economy competitive, have instead been making American taxpayers pay for Asians' imaginary threats.

China has the right to its own Monroe Doctrine. It does not conflict with ours, except at the Panama Canal, which we gave away because we're too obsessed with other countries' Monroe Doctrines and have neglected our own.

Every intelligent leaders of countries prepare for war, in case it ever has to happen. This story is a waste of time.

Our Navy also maps out the position of other countries cables.
I remember several years ago, we were caught using navy submarine's to secretly release deep sea divers and they tapped into Russian underwater communication cables to steal secret information.

Ah. Rip van Sage is asleep.

Customers don't cut each other's cables, Rip.

Only enemies do that.

Remember, when the shit hits the fan - they started it.

The Asians who feel threatened by them, if any actually do, must pay for their own defense. And they'll buy it from us.

You want to bomb Asia all over again?

Remember what happened the first time?

For decades, the Globalist parasites at home, who also don't care about making our economy competitive, have instead been making American taxpayers pay for Asians' imaginary threats.

There's nothing imaginary about it

China fired a live round at a US treaty ally just three days ago.

There's nothing imaginary about cutting a cable. It's either cut or it isn't.

China has the right to its own Monroe Doctrine. It does not conflict with ours, except at the Panama Canal, which we gave away because we're too obsessed with other countries' Monroe Doctrines and have neglected our own.

Our economy depends heavily on Southeast Asia. Our computer chips are made in Taiwan. Our disk drives are made in Thailand and Vietnam. Lots of our textiles are made in the Philippines

That's why all those places are US treaty allies. We are bound by law to protect them. Any assault on any of them means the US goes to war.

Cutting a communications cable is an act of war. It's an offensive move, not a protection

But not cut them. Eavesdropping is not cutting.

Not gonna happen. We have far too many interest around the world. The US didn't stage nearly 70k-80k troops in S. Korea and Japan without a reason. We are always told N. Korea is the culprit but Kim Jong is just a pawn for China. Also the US is not gonna allow the world to ditch the dollar and use the yuan as the currency for global commerce, not in my lifetime.

With Trump withdrawing the US from the world, China will become emboldened.
