    We are basically living the same as they were in the mid to late 1930s when everybody new a war was brewing.[/B]

    Now is a good time to rack up heaps of debt in buying supplies because you most likely won't have to pay it back when society collapses.
    Euroholic, I hope that you are wrong in your congruity with the 2025 forecast.

    We must keep our fingers crossed that the past peace keeper, the concept of mutually shared destruction, which worked quite well at keeping the big players at bay in the last 50 odd years, will continue to do so. Of course, we faced off obliquely with the Soviets in Vietnam, perhaps Korea, if in fact the USSR was supplying Red China, Afghanistan; along with many other locales. I have faith that China and America, being members of the nuclear club, will let cooler heads prevail in this matter.

    Furthermore, I have heard/read that we are the number one consumer of Chinese goods. If that is in fact true, then a "shooting war" between the parties would certainly be unwelcomed by both sides. (Please note that I specified "shooting war".)

    I would agree that Ch. is flexing her muscle in the Pacific region, but I would guess that's to be expected, it being her backyard. Hopefully as long as we maintain our support and our presence in the countries which are allied with us, we can dissuade them from any greater provocative moves in the region. I personally do not consider an Am. administration abolishing support and assistance, in the coming years, to the breakaway republic of Taiwan, as any reason to resort to an armed conflict with the Red Dragon. My wish is to see their repossession come off without firing a shot.

    Where I highlighted your second sentence; I would venture to guess that you made a rapid typo here... As China preceded Europe in the global conflagration which we now know as the Second World War, being invaded by their bellicose Asian brothers on July 7, 1937, by approx. 2 years. You call yourself "Euroholic", so I would surmise that you hail from the European Continent, so it is only logical, along with myself and my fellow Americans, that we are of the mind that WW II began with the 1 September, 1939 breach of Polish sovereignty, when in fact the war had been raging in Asia prior to this date. Excuse me for pointing that out here; I am not meaning to come off as smart.
