China joins Blackwall street
Don Rizzle:
the eu embargo is about to be lifted and there capabilities are ever increasing it won't take them long to surpass america in military and fiscal terms and thus will hold the title of superpower in 30 years or so and america will be knocked down a peg or 2, i'm not saying this is a good thing or anything its just fact, this is one of the oldest empires and they achieved what many other failed to do and that it bring all terrirtories into 1 country they have enough resources to be self sufficient and the same sort of mentality the japs had in ww2. america could weaken them but never defeat them and then china would just come back to bite them in the arse when they are strong enough.

but if there's a war with china, what about japan, australia, europe etc? wouldn't they help usa? And they got advanced technology 2.
Don Rizzle:
i'd hope we wouldn't be so foolish as to follow the only allies i can possibly see are japan and possibly australia
Thirteen:

they have a million man army.
american war ships would sit off the coast of japan, launch jets and bombers and destroy china's navy and airforce with minimal casualties on america's side, crippling the ability of china to engage the war on any other front besides thier homeland. then with months of more missle strikes at key targets, china's army would be a sitting duck. we would have no need to invade. the loss of the war would destroy their economy and china would be set back a few decades
it' a fact we have 3 times china's military power. common sense leads me to believe that china doesn't stand a chance. but of course this is the perfect scenario with a war between just china and the us

how much has our military been depleted just by the war in Iraq? You dont seem to understand how this works. A war isnt going to consist of us SOLELY sitting outside of China in war ships and shooting missles at them. At SOME point, we would have to put troops on the ground. A war in China would go for YEARS. Winning a war isnt just killin a lot of people, its accomplishing your objective which the US wouldnt be able to do...like Vietnam. Who could kill more people doesnt matter. The war would obviously be on their homeland, not ours so obviously we'd cause more destruction. But thats not the point. When the war was over, nothing would change...and nothing would be solved. The American people are a little out of touch when it comes to this stuff. Like i said, they get pumped up too much into thinking we're untouchable. You got idiots like Bush on tv that make u feel tough lol. But if you dont realize how strong China is...just see how our government handles any conflicts with China. Guarentee we'll talk them out and find a "peaceful" solution whereas a country like Iraq we'd just invade recklessly and start shooting...
