aw that old china vs china game again...The guy that wrote "the flight of the old dog" (Dale Bond) has been preaching this very scenario of china involved engagments for his last three books or so. Even clancy took a swing at the chineese invasion of russia to get the gold and goodies of siberia.
Its quite sobering really. Right now, america is very pressed to engage in conflicts in two geographically seperated places. The middle east and kosovo are exceptions, because they really are within the realm of one quater of the world, and acessible by air from germany or kuwait, take your pick.
Now if china felt really froggy, they would do whats predicted and go and take the bone while the dogs busy in another part of the yard. Only, i believe they are really not as prepared to go to the stops just right yet. One they just had a miserable harvest. Two, aside from a few natural castastrophes, the fuel situation aint good neither. We might have a few years respite from china just yet.
Maybee.
