China is drooling at the Buffet table
 
China’s Taiwan is the Worlds premier chip maker, and current technology depends on them. Obviously the Russian Military has been demoralized, and running on fumes. Russia has a failing economy and requires Chinas financial support. China requires something in return. It appears that after China gains control over Russia, they will soon control the oil supply to Europe. China never fired a shot and had everything to gain from the Russian invasion or Ukraine. World Domination is Chinas end game!

China has made great gains influencing some South American countries.
If they can get Russia under their wing they will certainly have world wide power.

Come to think about it, China DID construct a larger canal for Panama recently.

The failure of Russia to crush the Ukraine is a wake-up call for all "World Powers", just as Vietnam was for the USA.

The USA has used its wealth to influence many countries worldwide but that doesn't mean that it, or China, is aiming for "World Domination". That kind of thinking powered the arms race, which benefited military leaders and suppliers enormously but has not done much good for the man in the street.

China hasn't had a blue water navy since the middle ages, only a coastal force, after the Open door to China of the Kissinger / Nixon era China started to modernize their military both quantitatively and qualitatively, create and militarize islands sitting astride world trade routes, first surface ships then subs latest addition a carrier force, ballistic missile systems, claiming large sections of the pacific as their economic zone, anti ship missile systems that have a very long reach from the mainland , ,, I guess they just like sailing around in new hightech warships

The geo/political/military/economic facts have changed, characterizing them as "yellow peril" does not change the facts and what they portend

The USA has used its influence to destroy countries.

Please name the countries that were destroyed and why the USA destroyed them and how.

Wonder if we are still looking for all those WMD's Iraq had.

We in Britain once had the largest Empire in the world, and a navy that ruled the waves, but now they can't muster enough ships to stop an invasion of rubber dinghies bringing thousands of illegal migrants from France across the Channel daily. :shrug:
