Naval power has been a prerequisite for national dominance during the last 500 years, and Chinese planners are astute historians. It is time Americans face up to the probability that China will challenge our way of life through aggressive military action within the next 10 years. What would the consequences of Chinese-American military conflict include? 1) Severe food and resource shortages for the majority of people in both countries. 2) Heavy casualties on the battlefield and high seas. 3) Unpredictable refugee migrations which would disrupt the lives of nations allied with either country. 4) Long-term environmental damage. 5) The end of international Internet communications as a result of both countries destroying satellites, and, as a result, a return to pre-1990 conditions in terms of communications. 6) Human misery on a scale not seen since the Second World War. What can we do to prevent such conflict from taking place? Since American public opinion is devalued in China (as a result of heavy Chinese government censorship and organized propaganda), Americans with ties to Chinese citizens must reach out more to strengthen the ties of common interest and friendship. Americans must press their military leaders to become more innovative and adaptable in facing new forms of threats from China and other nations. This must include reassessment of the top-heavy and bloated American military-industrial complex which does not currently provide us with a reliable defense system. We must also become more self-sufficient in producing our own food, clothing, and shelter, so that if the nation's infrastructure is destroyed, we can survive to fight on. War is an obscenity, and planning for war is a sickening and disheartening task; however, those who refuse to face real threats end up imprisoned, enslaved, or dead. added by: Progresshiv
