Well worth watching since we are potentially on the cusp of a potential War with China (possibly starting as early as in the next 75 days)
WAR with China from an Australian perspective and HOW CLOSE is it to occurring?
60 Minutes Australia TV program
Sept 21, 2021 program (40 minutes long)
Originally I thought China would NOT be moving on Taiwan until AFTER the Winter Olympics (ala like Russia moving on Crimea immediately after the Sochi games in 2014), but with the Winter Olympics looking increasingly like a Bust it also looks to me like China has potentially moved up it's time line to BEFORE the scheduled games.
A big question remains on the timing wrt it's Party Congress which will conclude on Oct 29 and the announced, but as of yet publicly unscheduled, CCP Central Committee Meeting that is to take place in November.
Those of you who do not follow China may be unaware that the CCP has limited the Premier to 10 years in office ever since Mao, and Xi became Premier in 2012 so "IF" the protocol of the last 50 years is followed Xi will no longer be Premier AFTER the Party Conference in the fall of 2022.
Xi has stated several times that he will NOT leave the Taiwan question to the future. That he intends to "resolve" the issue before he leaves office.
UNLESS Xi is intending to have the CCP "CHANGE" it's now 50 year protocol as to how long a Premier can serve that means he MUST MOVE on Taiwan sometime before the end of November of 2022 so that the issue is "resolved" before he leaves office. Of course Xi has made some rumblings that he may want to stick around, and if that is the case then he may choose to "defer to the future" the resolution of the Taiwan issue.
"IF" he is going to follow protocol, willingly or unwillingly, that means he HAS to move on Taiwan sometime during the next 12 months, starting from NOW!
Over the next couple of days I will add some other links to this thread so that those who care to follow the WAR with China dynamic as it is developing this month and next can educate themselves and stay somewhat up to date.
PLEASE DO NOT CLUTTER THIS THREAD with posts that are irrelevant to the issue. This is too serious of an issue for some of the typical Religious Ramblings, Trump Stolen Election Ramblings, and totally unrelated Ramblings that tend to clutter up most GLP threads about serious issues.
PLEASE keep this thread focused on what may be the beginning Acts of a MAJOR War for the US.
edited to add:
25 posts down is a Quote by THE TOP Chinese Military Person saying War between the US and China is inevitable. In the article is this comment by Maj. Gen. Richard Coffman, director of the US Army's Next Generation Combat Vehicle Cross Functional Team:
"I think that means that you [China] are willing to STRIKE FIRST because, if it's inevitable, why would you wait for your adversary to strike first?"
