War with US under Donald Trump "becoming practical reality", says China military official - Polidicks

[quote]War with the US under Donald Trump is “not just a slogan” and becoming a “practical reality”, a senior Chinese military official has said. The remarks were published on the People’s Liberation Army website, apparently in response to the aggressive rhetoric towards China from America's new administration. They communicated a view from inside the Central Military Commission, which has overall authority of China’s armed forces. Quoted in the South China Morning Post, the official from the Commission’s Defence Mobilisation Department wrote: “A war ‘within the president’s term’ or ‘war breaking out tonight’ are not just slogans, they are becoming a practical reality.” The official also called for military deployments in the tense South and East China Seas and for a missile defence system to guard the Korean peninsula, another regional hotspot, the Post reported. The US should also reconsider its strategy in the Asia-Pacific region, the official wrote.[/quote] [url]http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/china-donald-trump-war-us-military-official-practical-reality-president-latest-a7550601.html[/url] [url]http://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy-defence/article/2065799/china-steps-preparedness-possible-military-conflict-us#comments[/url] As far as I can tell this news is ~12 hours old but I couldn't find a thread on it here which I thought a bit strange given the topic, but yeah.

I want to get off Mr. Trump's Wild Ride

Yeah it's understandable. We don't know when he will say the wrong thing on Twitter.

Whoa

Awaiting the inevitable "BUT HILARY"

Boy, we sure dodged a bullet by not voting in Hillary Clinton! She had an [B][I]ILLEGAL[/I][/B] email server, don'tcha know? :shock:

War is the last fucking thing we need.

lmao my parents voted for Trump so my brother and I don't get drafted into Hillary's "Jewilitary industrial complex" endless war machine.

#draftourdaughters

Just build a Chinese Wall.

It will be a trade war, way before an actual war.

All things considered, we might as well just start converting everything into dieselpunk

Welp, a Great War like in Fallout 4 will happen? Watch out in Anchorage if that happens.

I really don't want to see a war in my lifetime, let alone while I'm still in college. I hope to god Trump getting impeached is a more likely probability then the US going to war, let alone going to war with China.

US, UK, Russia are the Axis Europe, China & Canada are the Allies

[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;51742667]US, UK, Russia are the Axis Europe, China & Canada are the Allies[/QUOTE] 'Canada' Canada will follow in the U.S footsteps whatever happens, I doubt it. Also this, honestly sounds like fearmongering and nothing more, China has talked big like this for years.

"look at how much Trump did in a week, way more than Obama in his 8 years," is already being said and yet the same people are proud of the mess of a man as he unties our foreign relations and causes bigger conflicts.

Where would the war be fought? What would realistically start it?

[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;51742667]US, UK, Russia are the Axis Europe, China & Canada are the Allies[/QUOTE] No, China is not good news. Let's not pretend China are a good guy. They treat their citizens terribly. They are incredibly anti-democratic. While they're good for business and are tackling their own climate change habits, their government is still incredibly corrupt and wrong. But a war between China and USA or whatever would be a catastrophe. One hopes that eventually China will become democratic. But I fear there will be awful consequences for that to happen.

america would only win a war with china if the chinese started it and tried to attack them given trump and his hostility, its likely he would start the war and then go on to lose it. america would never win an offensive war against china
