[QUOTE]Originally posted by BlueElectron: [QB] 1st of 2: "But hey, fine, I'm easy. As soon as I get in as Dictator, all the other countries can go their own way. You don't want us around? Fine, have it your way. Don't call us. Ever. For anything. Famine? You're on your own. Military Coup? Screw you guys. Invasion? Sorry." Of course, we'll still look out for our own interests, but now we won't CARE if we step on your toes while doing it, because HEY, you aren't our friends anyway." After the communist took over China, I don't think we've ever ask for Americans' help on pretty much anything, if so, it's done on an "volunteer" bases. One thing good about the communist China is that they show more back-bone then the Chinese nationalist ever could. And when they want to do something, the whole nation will back it 100%. While the American governement and public are still squabbling rather to appologize or not over this incident, the entire China as a whole are already pointing their fingers at the Americans. "Of course, we'll still look out for our own interests, but now we won't CARE if we step on your toes while doing it, because HEY, you aren't our friends anyway." Good, look out for your own interest, it's suppose to be that way. But man, if you step on China's toe, they won't stop a missile to "accidently misfired" from one of their plane and "accidently" sunk one of your ship. After that, the American will probably be royaly pissed off and want to wage war at China. We won't be stupid enough to chanllenge you on sea or some far away places because Chinese reconize your power and have nothing else beside mainland to protect anyway, so you will have to take the fight to us. In a war, the American can: 1. Blockade China, and hope to starve the Chinese to death. - Sorry, we're pretty self sufficient, if there's anything we don't have, we'll get it from the Russian. Oil supplies won't be a big problem, since that China has a way better relation with Middle East then the American. We sells technologies to them, and don't ask many questions. American on the other hand, big friend to Isreal, and Middle East do feel threaten by the whole concept of "American assimilation" culturely, and religiously. Blockade us won't help, hell, Chinese had been doing it to themselves before Nickson decide to nock on their doors. Chinese are makings tons of cash from various free enterprise sector, that will be hurt during the blockade, but again, nothing life threatening. Beside, a pure blockade will bring shame to American pride, so it is highly unlikely. 2. limited warfare. By sending couple of Carrier groups into Chinese controlled sea and carry out bombardments by airplane or missiles as a show of force. - One big problem, Americans can't achieve air superiority with F-14, and F-18. The Chinese will have advantages in both quantity and quality in air. Couple of well position Kh-31 by Su-27, goodbye carrier fleets, goodbye billions of dollars. The "electronics" drawback on Chinese planes won't be a big problem, since that land-based radar will be fully capable on covering that disadvanges 3. Full out land invasion from European stationed force. - Ha, guess who is on the way, the Russians! 4. Trying to create a strong hold on various countries bordering China, then carry out an land invasion. - Most countries bordering China either hate the Americans or don't really have anything to do with the American. 5. Carry out massive carpet or stratigic bombing from Japan. - Again, no air superiority. Stealth airplane you say? Isn't it a year ago, where Chinese figure out a way to detect plane with stealth technologies, and it's all over the news? 6. A full out amphibitious landing on China mainland. - Ha, good luck with that one, I'm not gonna waste my breath explain why it cannot be done. [/QB][/QUOTE]
