Hu Xijin, the editor of the Chinese state-run newspaper the Global Times, considers enhancing China's nuclear program as being vital to the country's "strategic deterrence" against the United States.
Protests in Hong Kong, Taiwan, the COVID-19 pandemic and accusations China's engaged in a genocide against the Uighur Muslims are sowing deeper divisions in an already strained relationship between China and the United States.
With Beijing one of America's top concerns, President Joe Biden has sought to strike a stern tone, while China sees much of America's actions and comments to be an encroachment on its sovereignty.
The increasingly confrontational rhetoric and military maneuvers coming out of the two countries have raised concerns about a potential war.
"We must be prepared for an intense showdown between China and the U.S.," Hu wrote in a Thursday op-ed for the Global Times. "The number of China's nuclear warheads must reach the quantity that makes U.S. elites shiver should they entertain the idea of engaging in a military confrontation with China."
Hu advocated for "rapidly" increasing the number of commissioned nuclear warheads, DF-41s, an intercontinental ballistic missile, and strategic missiles that have "long-range" capabilities. The editor posted the same comments on Weibo, a Chinese social media platform.

China blusters WWIII. Again. Truth hurts, you Chinese Marxi-Fascist bastards. Show me.
MEH,
R,
'Marxi-Fascist", are they related to "islamo-fascists" or "commie-nazis"?
CHUDS have special minds. They live loud and proud in a world of severe cognitive dissonance. Must be exhausting.
Biden will piss in his pants.
Xi Jimping is driving China on the exactly same way of Hitler. People who never lived in a devastated country in WWII cannot see and understand that.

I appreciate you quoting me. It means I live inside your otherwise vacant skull. I got lots of other very clever wordsmiths witticisms. EG: I would consider you a classic "Marxicrat".
I'll explain: Its a play on words. Combining the terms "Marxist" and "Democrat" to illustrate the mentally defective collision (collusion?) between these two sick ideologies. Thereby producing a lack-wit malcontent such as yourself.
"Cognitive Dissonance". Reminds me of a term once often parroted by a now irrelevant blogger by the last name of Johnson.

Wow. you're like a genius and stuff and junk.
USE,
MORE,
WORDS,
R,
Wordplay is meant to be witty and clever.
Your attempt at it makes no sense. You're the guy who flies an American flag and a confederate flag on a pole in his yard.

Yes, I am. Thank you.
But in your case it just causes you to reach for your BP meds.
LMFAO,
R,
Jac, perhaps the best point you ever made lol
So true.. but China has seen devastation, for example during the war with Japan.
But it was different for sure, not utter and vast destruction as during WW2
But the more important thing is this
1. The Chinese threatened the world multiple times now over covid.. first they lied about the severity, then they bought up PPE from underneath us, then they supplied faulty PPE at inflated prices back to the world, insulted us all on top when we complained
2. On multiple occasions, the Chinese have claimed it came from other countries. When we dare to ask if it came from where it likely came, that threaten us to sink us"in the mighty waves of the Corona virus".. that was a quote from Chinese state media ca. March/ April 2020... does a friend talk like that?
3. Now they threaten nuclear annihilation
In short, we are at war
And we have companies that defend the nazi's.. just like before
