What do people here think the actual chance of a war with China is, in the next 10-15 years?
I have no idea personally, but the thought of it scares the shit out of me.
- TheKMan 6y agoSuperpowers don't usually go to war directly against each other -- they make their client states go to war against each other instead.
- platinumrad 6y agoA hot war with cruise missiles and carriers like this piece is fantasizing about? Extremely low.
- Trasmatta 6y agoOkay, yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking. Trade wars, a cold war, economic war, proxy wars all seem plausible, but the type of war this article seems to be going on about doesn't seem to make sense. How would a war like that even happen without devolving into nuclear warfare, which surely neither country wants? I have to admit I'm pretty naive about geopolitics, though.
