Grant Newsham, Asia Times: Biden restoration cause to rejoice in Beijing
There is no shortage of officials, companies and Wall Street firms eager for a return to pre-Trump softly-softly policies on China.
Sixteen months ago I wrote that China’s DF-21 missiles, J-20 stealth fighters, hypersonic weapons and aircraft carriers had America’s attention, but Beijing might add another awesome weapon to its arsenal: the R-2020.
R-2020? The Restoration 2020. If Beijing waited 16 months and Trump lost the next election, we would see a restoration of the China hands whose policies had created the current difficulties with the People’s Republic of China (PRC).
A letter was about to come out – placed in a major newspaper and signed by dozens of American Asia specialists, civilian and military – lambasting the Donald Trump administration for its allegedly counterproductive China policy.
Competing foreign policy approaches are nothing new in Washington. Nor are ill-tempered full-page ads in major newspapers. But in the case of that particular letter, one of the approaches to dealing with China could be vetted against 45 years of empirical evidence.
That made for grim findings.

WNU Editor: My contacts and friends in China are beyond happy right now. The above post by Grant Newsham does a good explanation on why they feel this way.

Okay Fred explain your vote.
It's when people blithely assume things that miscalculations are made and cold wars become hot.
Biden will probably be the next president. Biden's advisors likely know what China thinks of them. As such, they may go on the offensive especially if they think the Chinese have "dirt" on Hunter Biden. They may try a preemptive strike against China!!
Pre-emptive strike against China.
Wow, B Poster. you are a troll.
Do you know you come across as smarmy and insincere? You just failed at agit-prop.
Maybe you just troll a little too hard.
OCRUMBOGATE.
Can confirm, Chinese ecstatic about a Biden take over
So, I guess fred cant brain.
Anon 9:45,
Ever had a kid under attack for anything? It doesn't matter. You'll do what you think you need to do and you want worry about geo political realities. Should China try something in their hubris expect a pissed off America to response.
I still dont see from Biden to emerge, if ever he tries to give the chinese a hard instance. I have the impression that given Biden backed by a strong us military dont have a strong capacity to decide. Specially on an extreme hostile acts that the chinese may implict thise are the reasons the chinese is trying to build its own super power. aside from Taiwan and neigboring issue. Chinese knows this and they are thinking it will be sooner.
Now THAT'S a reply. You go get'm Lapides. Your empathy alone could raise Joe Hill from the grave!
rant on, low iq...you offer nothing but teen girl
bad mouthing. Biden will be president. What he will do remains uncertain. But you and other lassies seem to feel you can expound...ho ho ho
The Legal Threats Trump Will Face If He Loses the Election
Wow, such a comment from PhD in English Fred Lapides. A keeper for the ages!
usually Fred tails of around 6 PM and is pretty scarce by 7 PM. He has said n the past that he unwinds for an hour with his toddy. 1 shot only, he does not overdue it. He wants to live to 120 or 170 like those Detroit voters.
The only way I can figure grandpa is up 2 hours after his bed time is the Joe Biden steal. Fred is pumped up full of adrenaline form the steal. His side won foully and square.
Or the poster might not be Fred, but some Antifa adult using a nom de guerre.
As is totally obvious as in CAPTAIN OBVIOUS Fred Lapides is singing from the same sheet of music as the Communist Chinese in being ecstatic over the Joe Biden "win".
He does not have any second thoughts about being strange bedfellows with the CCP over the China Joe vote. No, we just get his signature DNA insult.
hey, stalker!!
tired of winning?
reality is a tough mother fucker
The Final Gasp of Donald Trump’s Presidency
"By Using the Audit Statistical Technique Known as ‘Benford Analysis’ in Wisconsin the Precincts in Milwaukee Are Absolutely Where to Investigate for Fraud"
In school we learned of the corruption of political machines such as Tammany Hall. When did humans change since then.
Just because we are modern does not make us better. We think we are modern and those, who came before were not, so we are better.
Modern comes from the French language which got it from Latin. I have seen one translation of modern as meaning just "mode of the day". There is nothing in the definition that says the people now are better than the people, who came before.
So Tammany Hall. It never left us.
I don't expect you to do a Benford Analysis. I don't expect you to go to war. I don't expect your kid to go to war. I expect him to be a REMF like you. He'll high tail it to Israel. I expect if anyone gathers money to pay for an investigation and it is stopped, you will think that is good and then crow that nothing illegal was found.

You are a piece of work whether you really are Fred Lapides or a troll pretending to be him.
I've been to 2 wars actually.
As benighted, illiterate, and in experienced as you are, I would not wager anything based on your expectations. Nature abhors a vacuum. It is a metaphysical law. They is a lot of empty space between Joe Biden's ears ad a lot fluff in the polices Team D will adopt. There is going to be a war.
I been to Israel. I have been to Ashdod, Haifa, and Jerusalem. I have also been to Oman, UAE, Kuwait, Iraq, Turkey and Egypt. You should get out more after all your want to be as old as those Detroit voters. You have another 30 to 60 years to fill.
"the rest of your dribble is beyond me"
I do not doubt it. You are under educated, mis-educated, incurious stick in the mud. Outside of sex, food and money, nothing has really ever interested you.
Fools world fools it time 4 war Trump see
Do it 4 the life of truth
Death is coming like a tornado in your house
Fire
Don't mess with Freddie he's got Baez Lps to listen to and savor what he thinks is a victory. Oh Freddie a certain ex-male student is waiting for your call.
