China sometimes reminds me of a schoolyard bully that no one has the stones to confront.

He'll take your lunch money, make you do his homework, and run your pants up a flag pole during a particularly cold and rainy day...

Or in this case, hoard the world's supply of rare earth metals.

Sure, the global community has been up in arms about it. And last week, the WTO ruled against China's stockpiling. Apparently, if China doesn't abide by the ruling, the Middle Kingdom can be sanctioned.

Of course, by the time they get around to doing that (it could take up to a year and a half), all those WTO hearings and sanction threats won't even matter anymore.

Because by then, true seekers of wealth will have already turned the tables on China's rare earth bullying — and made billions as a result.

USA has 11 active Carrier Battlegroups, 4 inactive Battleship Battlegroups, and enough nuclear weapons to leave Eurasia a radioactive wasteland. If it comes down to it, it won't matter if the USA is bankrupt, because the rage kindled during Pearl Harbor can resurface if China tries anything.

We're playing Chess with the SCO, EU, and India.

Well USA has the military might but China has the numbers, in population,money,resources,soldiers and tanks. Perhaps China has crap tanks and soldiers, but even so 100 soldiers that charge at a machine gun with sticks stones and clubs do have chances.
Sometimes quantity beats off quality.

Paxx and I are right. Prom is wrong.

China: I have 1000 tanks! Prepare to die!
USA: 3...2...1...
China: WTF ZOMFG NOOB HACKER

The moral of the story: Nuke > Tanks


Then we have the problem that theres the Pacific(or Atlantic and EU) to traverse first. UK may have some words about it if 100k tanks rumbled through London.

And remember that USA is always 20year more advanced than they show...probably they have something better than the F-22,B-2 in some ultra secret hangar.

USA reached mach 7 in 1950 60 years has passed is like obvious that they have some kind of horrible super-weapon..

well china has superior un physical military .... hence hackers.... if needed they could disarm those bases with nukes since the US relys on computer guided missile body's ICBM's/ however.... china it self has a very weak military presence many many soldiers. but not so much airforce armored and naval power compared to the US and EU if in such war i guarentee the EU and Australlian coalitions would back a strategy against asia.


Russia and the middle east ... however.... may not.. and africa will sit on there asses as normal..


Hackers?? a smart country will never have ultra secret information conected to internet, probably they have it in enourmous carpets,laptops,Hard disk in a bunker 1kilometer under earth whit around 1000 Seals guards or a secret elite guard.

Japan,Democratic Republic of China and south Korea probably are going to join in that strategy against China..remember that USA is a BIG weapon provider to that countries.

China copy everything from Russians, and Russian copy from USA,

Just see their planes

F-22= Pak-fa/J-10
F-15 and F-14=Sukhoi-27 series and probably MIG-29
B1-b= Blackjack(but the last is better,probably the best russian plane ever)
B-29=Tupolev 4
MIG-15=FW TA-183

I like the part where you blamed Pearl Harbor on the Chinese.

Same here ;p

China never gave out too much info anyway. There really is no way to know their true military might. Well.. same with the US.. anyway, a war between these two will never happen, unless China screws with the Philippines for that sea region that has oil and which is claimed by a dozen countries.

I never said China did Pearl Harbor in, fools. Anyone from USA with a brain can see that the Japanese pissed off the Sleeping Dragon. Piss it off again, doesn't matter who, and your country will be destroyed.
