The Coming War with China

The United State encirclement of China has been criticized multiple times here on Ithaka and John Pilger has made a documentary to illustrate how U.S. provocation will inevitably lead to a war due to the increasing threat to China's homeland.  (RT:  US provoking China into nuclear war? RT to air new Pilger documentary)

The graphic shows the extent to which U.S. bases are deployed in the encirclement and we have seen Obama provoking them one time after another as he tries to show them why he was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize.


The graphic is just a screen grab because there was no way otherwise to obtain it.  You will need to go to RT to play the video and it's worth the trip.  If you did not know how Washington manages to spend more on the military than anything else, the graphic should go some distance toward explaining it.


The beauty part is after starting a nuclear war with China, the winds will probably bring the fallout to America.  In the context of nuclear war, we call that poetic justice.


Obama has been moved from being as bad as a President as George Bush up to being as bad as Harry Truman who started the Cold War with aboveground nuclear testing.  If you didn't understand Manifest Destiny previously or the Divine Right of White People to Kill Everyone They See, the graphic should do it.  America thinks it has a right to do this and the more sanctimonious of them think of it as a duty.

Don't come crying to me when the bombs start dropping since you could have stopped it and didn't.  Oh, wait.  I won't be here.

Clinton would have been more dangerous than Trump in this regard since she intended to follow Obama's lead on practically everything and the provocation can't have any other outcome; it never does.

There is only aspect of Trump's platform which is not vicious to low-income Americans and destructive to the country as a whole (i.e. killing EPA by installing a ringer in the Cabinet position, installing another ringer who will 'advance God's kingdom' as Education Secretary, etc).

Trump reiterated yesterday he would stop the 'interference' by America in the affairs of other countries.  He said something similar previously and that's the only reason the Rockhouse was not advocating open revolution as the campaign got worse and worse.  If in the unlikely event he is true to his word, he may just keep America and the world out of a nuke war.  Beyond that, he's just another GOP termite but there's high value in that single aspect alone of preventing a nuke war.  The rest we can fix after he is gone.  With Clinton, there would not have been anything left.
