Ukraine War and Politics

[Cool 'Horn Luke]

China's ideology is that they're the smartest, coupled with a severe inferiority complex with what @Johnny Diamond said about the eastern mind, and are destined to rule the world. Much like Islam's religion which commands them to convert and control the planet. They, China, don't care about the sense and profitability of invading anyone, they want the control. Let's ask the Uighurs what they think.

Most eloquently put sir, well said.

what’s in it for China to attack Russia?

Several years back?

The Chinese & Russians engaged in a pitched tank battle in Mongolia...

With about a dozen tanks/crews destroyed between them...

They hate each others guts...

A FEW ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS:

All of this money printing is diluting the value of ALL of our U S Dollars. This is the main driver of inflation.

Our National Debt is already unsustainable. The interest paid is more than our military budget.

One thing few consider is that the entire federal retirement system is totally unfunded, worse even than Social Security. This is a total amount owed of over $20T, to be added to the admitted debt & interest thereupon.

Meanwhile our international ’’trade balances’’ never favor us.

Now, Obiden has shut-down much of our natural gas exports. . . . . exports which really helped trade balances.

Our Nation doesn’t actually have the large amounts of cash going to Ukraine

Can’t go-on forever !

And yet China is supplying Russia in the current war.

Yep! Just the recent $60b that Bidens handlers wanted for Ukraine was more than the Marine Corps budget for the year.

A few things with China...

First..they despise India...(and all non Chinese)

Second...they still hate Japan for the atrocities committed by the Japanese in WWII...

Third....they think/know that Taiwan is their property....

Fourth....the resources in Mongolia/Siberia are tremendous...

Things are going to be more interesting....

that doesn’t mean that invading Russia is a logical choice.

 

[Johnny Diamond]

Once again you point out the obvious, and why? Simply to fuel an argument

It was appropriate for your previous post.

China, de facto, already controls a good part of Siberia.

I'm looking for a reference or citation for that event. Do you have one?

Pretty sure he is talking about this:

Let Me Google That

For all those people that find it more convenient to bother you with their question than to google it for themselves.

A) I did look. Did you?
B) That search turns up nothing about a tank battle between Russia and China in Mongolia (a 3rd country), which should have been a big deal. The USSR did fight a major tank battle with Japan in Mongolia in 1945 though.

Never mind he was likely speaking off the cuff,

that Manchuria and Mongolia could be mis-remembered as the other and

this batte involved tanks and china and russia shooting at each other with significant casualties and equipment losses.

but almost certainly you are right, its not what he was refering to [roll-eyes]

That's still against Japan in 1945. China has been fighting with India in recent years though, along the latter's border with Tibet.

…and the US, but that doesn’t mean launching a military invasion in the US would be wise for them to attempt.

Yes. Especially, because China doesn’t need to storm Russian cities since it bought Russian government.

 

[Johnny Diamond]

Bought American government too.
