Riya Singh Rathore, The Diplomat: As China-India Border Construction Heats up, So Do Confrontations
In the short term, more development means more clashes. But could there be a positive impact in the long term?
Recent China-India clashes follow a trend: The surest way to forecast flashpoints is by keeping an eye on infrastructure developments along the border.
The pattern of border industrialization and infrastructure development serving as flashpoints is best evidenced by the fact that the last two major clashes, the Doklam standoff and the Galwan valley clashes, also resulted from infrastructure disputes.

After the NATO comment, China can think that it is less dangerous having clash with India than with any country of the treaty.
ReplyDeleteIndia got nukes though
ReplyDeleteTerrible army but plenty, think 1mm or so
So they have enough people and power to make an escalating confrontation hurt so much the risk reward ratio is not really there
Other than a couple skirmishes I don't see China doing anything at the moment except Taiwan
And Taiwan depends on if the illegitimate Biden administration can remain in office or if people realise that the Democrats, which openly are a collectivist socialist communist Marxist blend, who do believe and conduct Maoist style struggle sessions and who have had multiple Chinese spy connection incidents (Feinstein, both Bidens, Swalwell).. that these people who said at the beginning of the outbreak it would be racist to call it Wuhan virus, a virus that destroyed the global economy and killed millions, despite all that they repeated the CCP talking points verbatim.. despite that much of the Democrat pedo connection happened through Epstein and his Chinese spy ring connection, just like with Hunter Biden, despite the years long action of dismantling American energy independence by the Democrats and on top sending over your job by the Democrats (and Republicans like Mitt Romney, who at the time at Bain Capital lived large on the offshoring idea, BUT the original concept and lobbying for sending manufacturing jobs to China came from McKinsey and was outlined and lobbied for since they released their white paper on it in the 1990s).. Trump also had McKinsey bunch in his admin, but they're typically 70% Democrats at McKinsey.. these days you can't even openly say that you're a Republican at McKinsey but I think 30% is about right.. so these ideas were to disarm the USA, to send your jobs over to attack your culture and history, they'r part of a multi year attack financed and orchestrated by China
China knows very well that they don't want to fight kinetic, and they want you to believe a) China is the future, no matter what, so don't even try and b) YOU DON'T HAVE A COUNTRY WORTH FIGHTING FOR
And that is the message of Democrats
Resist.
Hang the traitors.
Enemies foreign and at home.
