Red Alert: China Threatens to Attack US Troops

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 12/11/2021 7:11:46 PM

Earlier this year, it came out that the US has sent a small number of Marines and Special Operations troopers to the Republic of China (Taiwan), where they are advising and training Taiwanese forces and have been doing so for over a year.China, which has been threatening Taiwan by sending flight after flight of fighter jets and even nuclear-capable bombers toward the island, was predictably upset.Now, however, it’s gone beyond being upset, and Chinese state media is declaring that the PLA will attack those US troops and others when it attacks Taiwan.That threat came from an op-ed in the Global Times, a Chinese regime outlet, which said:

Milley vanilly will have a chat with his best friend Xi. Flat footed Austin will blab about that there is plenty of room for a discussion, and the first vegetable will send a letter that will make Xi shake in his boots. No one will doubt what a weak clown administration is making some noise!

I don't feel too confident with Brandon in charge. Or a General that would contact his ChiCom counterpart if he didn't like the sitting President.

I believe those military serving in Taiwan are as disposable to Miley, Austin, Biden, et al, as the thirteen soldiers and family with 7 children that died in Afghanistan. They mean nothing to this administration. Remember Biden checking his watch repeatedly as the delivered the caskets at Dover AFB? They do not care.

Ref #4, we were all disposable to every president. We meant something to our families and our units, that's it. We were under no illusions that we meant anything but photo ops to any politician, and that includes high ranking officers. Look at the vaccine mandates and mandatory trans/gay love fests for modern day examples. Its just the nature of the beast and we learned to accept it

Further to #4s excellent point, what truly scares me witless is that if the CCP attacks us either directly or via Taiwan, those demorat traitors in DC, either thru intent or simple incompetence, will put the military in awful tactical positions: high risk and little advantage and they will further suffer from poor security via blabbermouth demorats, delayed and indecisive orders, and as #4 states, leadership that doesn't give a damn about them.

What China is really saying is that they will take Taiwan. IMO they will do it before Biden's term is over and maybe before the 2022 election. The only question is what will the United States do about it. We had better get started making our own pharmaceuticals and computer chips. I went by my local Ford dealer today and he closed his used car lot and placed the used cars in front of his showroom in order to make it look like he has something to sell.

Articles like this will keep you up at night because we know Joe Biden and his puppet masters are not up to the task of protecting this country. Worse than that, they do not want to protect us. The cabal running this country could not be more anti-American if they were Xi Jinping himself. The enemy is within the gates and right now are consolidating their power. They have decimated the military, have ideologues at its helm and would willingly sacrifice our men and women due to their toxic dogma. The Chinese know it and will take every advantage of it. Even during the Carter years I was never as afraid as I am now. We have anti-American incompetents running the show, weak and ineffective Republican leadership with zero interest in disrupting the democrat agenda, and a confident China who knows to strike when the iron is hot. God help us.

Previous posters have nailed it. We are being held hostage by the Jihad Junta, (aptly describes who holds federal and some state power at this moment, achieved through criminal means and with the total support of the idiots in Congress and The CJOTSC.) They are salivating at the prospect that Liberty, wherever it may be in this world, will be defeated. The Republic of China, Australia, and now the USA are in grave danger and those who are constitutionally charged with protecting US are now, in reality, the enemy. Pray.

The chicom Pravda means what it is told to say. This isn't looking good. I can only guess that biden the cheater and Kamalie will punt on Ukraine and let Putie take over Ukraine. As for Taiwan, they will stall for time and try the diplomacy schtick. After a few months of that, expect war, a horrific one. For that matter, expect war to breakout elsewhere in the world. The hate meter has maxxed out. As regards a civil war breaking out in America, there is a possibility this will happen. Sometime within this decade and mostly in the urban areas where the dims have ginned up most of the hate. For those knowledgeable of the Bible, recall the mark of the beast that is described in Revelation (Rev 13:16). A symbol of the beast is here. And then think about today's covid pandemic and the vax mandates. Look at the statue that was recently installed in front of the United Nations HQ in NY. Just a coincidence? Those domestic and international interests who orchestrated the Great Election Fraud of 2020 had specific objectives in mind. We are about to see for ourselves. I am usually the last person to assume such pessimism. Just being realistic.

I doubt the Chinese plan any attack/war. What they are doing is using the threat to push Biden to give them a free hand with trade and everything else short of war. Its a very logical plan and it is working perfectly. The same plan would never have worked against Trump, he gives back more than he receives.

Then he will blame everyone but himself ,screw up the logistics and reinforcement,send the wrong war toys and the wrong ammunition and then he will abandon them completely and let the press demonize all of our soldiers. After Taiwan is totally lost and occupied by the Communist Chinese then he will declare victory.

Keep in mind that Putin is planning to take over Ukraine. The answer in both cases is financial, not military. If PDJT was still in office, he would make a deal with the EU to shut down all Nat Gas lines to Europe. As for China, Blockade all our ports, both air and sea to Chinese imports. Then open our oil and gas production to supply our European allies. At the same time, incentivize U.S. manufacturing to produce the products currently made in China. I'm sure we can get by without $1000.00 sneakers for the time being.

No surprise, as if the Communist Chinese launch a military attack against Taiwan, and US troops are there with the Taiwanese military, those American troops would also come under attack. That’s what happens during kinetic warfare, so even the Biden “woke” Generals at the Pentagon should be able to figure that out. If you think the supply chain from Communist China is bad now, just wait if Taiwan and any US troops there are attacked by the Communist Chinese, as there will then be no supply chain at all from mainland of Asia to the USA.

Seven times before law enforcement found cocaine smuggled into the White House, President Joe Biden promised to restore “integrity” and “decency” to the presidency. Over the July 4th weekend, officials discovered cocaine stashed in the White House. The Secret Service has yet to reveal its findings of who smuggled the white powdery drug into one of the most secure buildings in the world. And the White House refuses to provide much insight into the growing scandal.The White House press team refuses to say whether or not the cocaine belonged to Joe or Hunter Biden, citing campaign law.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Lesley Wolf is a central figure in the investigation into Hunter Biden and is alleged to have stymied investigators and aided the Biden family. Wolf is the subject of a letter Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), ranking member of the Senate Budget Committee, sent to the U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware, David Weiss, on Sunday. Wolf worked directly beneath Weiss on the Department of Justice and IRS probe into Biden’s overseas business dealings and tax affairs.In addition to other allegations about Wolf’s role in the probe, Grassley’s letter revealed an October 2020 briefing that Wolf allegedly received from the Department of Justice and FBI.

Ron DeSantis and his wife Casey. Trump took to Truth social to air his grievances, pointing out how he had endorsed Reynolds during her 2018 gubernatorial run - crediting himself for her ascent - only to have her appear in photo-ops with his political rivals.

The Justice Department briefed federal prosecutors and agents on the team investigating Hunter Biden on a key FBI document containing allegations of a criminal bribery scheme involving Joe Biden in October 2020, but did not invite IRS agents to that briefing, Sen. Chuck Grassley charged. That accusation was leveled just weeks after IRS whistleblowers alleged that the entire federal investigation into Hunter Biden's business dealings was influenced by politics. The document in question is an FBI-generated FD-1023 form. The form, dated June 30, 2020, reflects the FBI's interview with a "highly credible" confidential source who detailed multiple meetings and conversations

An archbishop in the Church of England said the opening of the “Lord’s Prayer” is considered “problematic” to some people because the 2,000-year-old prayer starts by addressing God as “Our Father.” Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell told the General Synod, the legislating and ruling body of the Church of England, that referring to God as “father” might be offensive to some people because of the negative connotations of patriarchy. “I know the word ‘father’ is problematic for those whose experience of earthly fathers has been destructive and abusive, and for all of us who have labored rather too much from an oppressively patriarchal grip on life,” Cottrell said,

Stein’s Law holds that “If something cannot go on forever, it will stop.” The late Herbert Stein made the observation about economic trends, but his axiom perfectly describes Joe Biden’s shaky dance with political death. The president is trying to navigate a narrow path between two potential disasters. Each one could prove fatal to his tenure, but if the twain shall meet, he doesn’t have a prayer. And it’s a near certainty they will meet because the facts we already know are overwhelmingly stacked against him and more damaging information is coming soon. One track of his predicament stems from general public unhappiness with his performance.

Major legal rulings that dismantled the use of race in college admissions, undermined protections for LGBTQ people and tossed out President Joe Biden’s student debt relief program marked the end of a Supreme Court term in which the conservative supermajority continued to exert its dominance. The majority also doubled down on a controversial legal theory that limits the power of federal agencies to take unilateral action. Meanwhile, the justices rejected a far-fetched argument that would have limited the role of state courts in election disputes and turned away an aggressive attempt to challenge Biden administration immigration policy – both areas in which lawyers on the right might have overreached in their arguments.
