"America would never EVER try an attack against China. Get it through your thick skull that America doesn't want war."
No, we wouldn't attack them, because there would be no point. But WAKE UP people - if anyone thinks that the technology that China is acquiring (such as that mentioned in the Cox Report) is merely to resolve some border issues with Tawain or any other province, they are SORELY ignorant and blind. China doesn't need all of this to take Taiwan. All of its military buildup is intended for US. They already have control of the Panama Canal - what does that TELL you?
Some would argue that they wouldn't DARE attack US. Why on earth not? Some may answer this question with statements relating to the fact that we are very heavy trading partners now, and that would jeopardize that. But Communists are NOT motivated by profit, only by power and conquest.
There are those who would argue that trading with them is a good idea, because it will expose the Chinese people to the ways of the west, and that it will initiate change. Does anything to be changing, other than the fact they are throwing a ton of money and technology into building better weapons? Have they stopped torturing and oppressing their own people?
And a better thing to note - look how things are changing HERE, largely in part to Clinton, but honestly attributable to the actions of every administration since FDR. Our rights are being slowly chipped away. Anyone who doubts this should take a look at the various legislations that are being enacted in order to regulate internet activity. Honestly, this whole thing may be a great excuse for them to watch us EVEN MORE, under the guise that they are trying to protect us from things like China's "Internet warfare."
"We only want to keep the oil flowing, stop genocide in Europe, and keep the Commie bastards from
spreading."
I wish it were as simple as that. But if we were interested in keeping the "Commie bastards" from spreading, we wouldn't elect so many of them in our OWN country. Granted, none of them will directly state that that's what they are, but take one look at their policies, procedures, and principles. There is not much difference between a communist and a socialist.
"Communism is the most evil form of totalitarianism."
No arguments here.
"If you like it so much why don't you go live there
(if you don't already)."
The sad thing is, we basically do. Most people just don't see it yet, and won't until it is complete.
