SCMP: China brushes off US request to resume military dialogues

WNU Editor: Presidents Xi and Biden are going to be at the G20 next month. They may talk, but if they do I am willing to bet that it will be brief.

The above coupled with:
"Russian President Putin Says Taiwan Is An 'Inherent Part' Of China"
China will attack. They will assume that the US cannot manufacture enough ordinance to make up for what is spent in Ukraine. Also The Dims have shown a lackadaisical attitude to restocking.
Assuming I am wrong at the very least Chinese brass cannot stand conversing with the dopey DEI/CRT motherfuckers. Austin and Milley are really dishonest, poor leaders.
Sad sack Joe Biden was told about the Industrial Mobilization and Defense Production Act and he said it should be used to help with the so called COVID pandemic.
We are daily regaled with news of low ammo stocks and never once has "COVID-19: Industrial Mobilization and Defense Production Act" passed through Biden's lips. Must not be a priority.
If you were a Chinese leader what would you think?
Democrats are the death of America and the world.
Why talk to the "there can be no peace talks" spoiler nation?
"there can be no peace talks"
Peace armistice truce with a fascist led Russia is merely a reload time for the Russian Army.
Russia attacked in 2014 and 2022.
if there is a "peace" who will violate it a 3rd time
Duh! Russia!
Taiwan is a different theater I believe US Pacific Allies would help wouldn’t just be US/Taiwan vs China
