World Remains Blind To 'Ticking Time Bomb' Countdown To War On Australia's Doorstep

[To-Whose-Benefit?]

Interesting, that article doesn't mention tariffs.

And How is China's PLA is funded, to continue posing the active Threat to peace and stability in the area? I mean, that Was the point of my posting, not the horror of paying more for a streaming player OR a Big Mac. Wars, generally speaking, cost quite a bit more than junk food or junk entertainment.

BTW, since you've brought it up, your argument for them has the same merit as the 15 dollar an hour minimum wage for burger flippers.
All you have to do is replace " effin' streaming player" with "Quarter pounder with cheese" and you are making the case for higher price products to help your fellow American fast food workers.

The results will be the same.Less consumer choice, higher prices, and higher unemployment, and more automation.
Please go ahead tell us about how Friedman was wrong.
I'm sure those on the burger flipping new left, and higher tariff new right will all nod in agreement.

I wonder just how far China will go?
I'll admit, I don't know the answer to that.
I'll say this, if this is a President Trump tactic to open up talks that lead to a fair trade deal, I'm all for it.
It appeared to work with the EU, but now we're talking about a country that has been around for thousands of years, with over a billion people.
I'm not saying should act out of fear, but is provoking them a good idea?
I hope the thought of mutual destruction occurs to them before they go to war with us or an ally.
As the article points out, this can work out, but there are more,pieces to this puzzle than meet the eye.

China has shown the world that it will go as far as it pleases and any damn Where it pleases, legal or not.

https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/10/politics/south-china-sea-flyover-intl/index.html


"On Subi Reef, the Poseidon's sensors picked up 86 vessels, including Chinese coast guard ships, moored in a giant lagoon, while on Fiery Cross Reef rows of hangers stood alongside a lengthy runway.

"It was surprising to see airports in the middle of the ocean," said Lt. Lauren Callen, who was leading the air combat crew aboard the Navy flight.
Each time the aircraft was challenged by Chinese military, the US Navy crew's response was the same.

"I am a sovereign immune United States naval aircraft conducting lawful military activities beyond the national airspace of any coastal state," the response said.

"In exercising these rights guaranteed by international law, I am operating with due regard for the rights and duties of all states."


It wasn't China's land. They have no lawful claim to it, and they're threatening us away from it.

And yes, there are more pieces to this puzzle.

Nobody, so far as I know, has said squat to Japan. They're not much better at real Free Trade than China is at not robbing and bullying us.

Because we need Japan to help hold China and the Norks in check, so we put up with it.


Again, I like Freidman, but this isn't Freidman.

This is Sun Tzu.

And Mushashi. 'A Book of Five Rings'

1st off an apology to @To-Whose-Benefit? @truth_seeker.
This seemed like a pretty serious topic to start the AT/ NT stuff again, but I could of, and should of ignored it and just get used to it.
It is what it is.
Sometimes I'll play along, either way, to try and be funny, so I can't claim an moral high ground here. My user name is for my favorite comedian, but also I can be a Grouch.

Anyway, this is going to be a difficult endeavor for America.
I get you credit, when it comes to China, I've had to re-examine my anti-tariff stance, but in this instance only, for now.

Do,tariffs or canctions work here?
Yes, if it brings China to the negotiating table.
No, if gives it gives them the " us- against- the - world mentality.
However, it seems they are already at that point.

So, what is next?
Would they stop if we pulled bases that are close (like Okinawa)?
You have to think both sides are seeing a perceived threat from the other one.

What do they need?
My question is about basic needs.
People need food, water, and energy.
What do we offer China to start the negotiations?
They had been buying soybeans.
An angry country of a billion plus who are hungry, could be problematic, to say the least.

What do we need from them?
Of course, China taking a less aggressive stance would be a start.
Peace through strength?
Fine, as far as it goes.
While we maintain a military presence in the region, they'd be less likely to stop doing the same.

[Sanguine]

How about 1 member who went on for Months thread jumping to repeatedly call POTUS "A lying sack of shit."

Search that one for substantive, grown up content.

Why do you think I bothered to post all of these news articles on China?

After all the NT howling about tariffs, as if China were a big fan of Milton Freidman.

Anyone here says Boo! about being tired of the never ending 1 dimensional, empty of substance rants about there being no difference in the 2 sides of our Uniparty, as embodied in our current POTUS gets attacked in forum by the usual subjects as trying to deny them the podium.

Trump critics get the floor here, any and every time they want it, and I'm having trouble remembering those of us who see this Administration as actually trying to accomplish things, trying to Silence any of the embittered NT members here.

Feels like trying to debate a Democrat playing the perennial victim card.

So give us a break with this. I'm sick to my guts of whiney NTs here accusing us of attempting to Silence them.


WHY do you think I bothered, spent my Time, looking up and posting all these articles about Who and What China is?

After I get accused, in forum, of being unbalanced through 'Projecting'?

First of all, I came here to actually read about the topic of this thread which is "World Remains Blind To 'Ticking Time Bomb' Countdown To War On Australia's Doorstep".  Sounds sort of important. 

But, you presented me with nothing on that topic and a challenge about Trump postings, so I will address that instead.  I used your term: "A lying sack of shit" which you very helpfully put in quotation marks and I searched TBR.  I found 22 uses of that phrase.  Of which exactly three referred to Trump.  Do it yourself if you don't want to believe me.

Y'all really need to get off your high horses and reexamine your assumptions.

Take for instance searching with standard google for scientific papers or Court decisions.

Then try querying the same criteria using scholar.google.com

Whole different hierarchy of what the engine considers relevant.

Excellent.  We didn't use exactly the same search terms.  You used "lying sack of shit" and I used "a lying sack of shit".  Small difference, but it means you found 7 more than I did (one was quoting my response here).  So, the search function worked exactly as it was designed to.

And, back to the original point - how many of these refer directly to Trump? 

[Sanguine]

See above. It's entirely dependent upon What the engine Wants to give you.

You think the search engine thinks for itself?

Search Engine is just code.

It does what the person who wrote it Told it to do.

Nothing more nothing less.

Perzackly.  You told it to search for "lying sack of shit," and @Sanguine told it to search for "A lying sack of shit."  That's enough of a difference for the code to give different results.  Now, I reiterate her question for you:  Please highlight the posts in there that refer directly to President Trump.

This entire exercise was precipitated by the assertion Never Trumpers have gotten away with calling the President a "lying sack of shit."  So far, more has been done to disabuse that notion than confirm it.

   To those among US that think TBR is somehow an anti-Trump Forum, I want to point out that I am unable to ping GeronL, sinkspur, cripplecreek and a few others.
   Granted they dug their own graves here but it's illustrative of the fairness Myst and her Mods impose here to keep this ship afloat and for that, I am grateful.

OK. I went back and added the 'a'. Like @Sanquine I now get only 22 results.

I then input the member's handle who I had in mind, and could not bring up their commenting history.

Do you know how to get that one to work here? I don't.


I get nada trying google, the phrase, and TBR's URL.

My point is the TBR machine appears to be a prepackaged template, and it's search functions somewhat limited.
