How so? Hong Kong is officially part of China, with "Special" exceptions. In mainland China thinks there should be a crackdown, on those "Chinese who think they're still British," who is going to step in? We are certainly not, the British can't mobilize that quickly, and would smacked pretty hard mano y mano vs China. Now I think there would be a huge International uproar, and economically, it might severely hurt China, but a domino effect taking down China, North Korea, and Iran? That difficult to believe. I think it will go exactly how China thinks it will, and they've already "priced in" the consequences should they act.
Don't give up yet! India and China could still have a nuclear exchange tomorrow, and in an attempt to help China North Korea could overshoot and hit Iran followed by a strike on the Norks by Israel because they thought they were being targeted
We're getting our soldiers and tanks and planes in position. Now that the Israelis have sent missile subs in to accompany ours it appears they are finally signalling a grudging willingness to engage Iran. In 2010 the London whistle blower indicated that The City wasn't happy about Israel balking at fulfilling their role. Perhaps they know that when President Trump leaves the White House...
Oh, but then there's Putin and all the rumorous stories in the untrustworthy press about him stepping down but also of siding with the communist Chinese, any of which if true is going to destabilize the west, the near east, the middle east and the far east.
Happy New Year!
One year after U.S. forces assassinated Iranian revered general Qasem Soleimani, a senior official warned Wednesday that the 'threat' coming from Iran is the 'most concerning' yet.
Iran on Monday began enriching uranium up to 20% at an underground facility and seized a South Korean-flagged oil tanker in the crucial Strait of Hormuz, further escalating tensions in the Middle East between Tehran and the West.
we the tax payers fund North Korea and Iran to build their Nukes. Democrats give them millions. They say for humanitarian reasons....idiots. its used to fund their defenses. Trump stopped it. It will go right back with the morons in office again.
