Earlier this month, U.S. Air Force Brigadier General Doug Wickert summoned nearby civic leaders to Edwards Air Force Base in California to warn them that if China attacks Taiwan in the coming years, they should be prepared for their immediate region to suffer potentially massive disruption from the very start.
In a remarkable briefing shared by the base on social media and promoted in a press release, Wickert - one of America’s most experienced test pilots now commanding the 412th Test Wing - outlined China’s rapid military growth and preparations to fight a major war.
Cutting-edge U.S. aircraft manufactured in California’s nearby “Aerospace Valley”, particularly the B-21 “Raider” now replacing the 1990s B-2 stealth bomber, were key to keeping Beijing deterred, he said. However, if deterrence failed that meant China’s would likely strike the U.S. including nearby Northrop Grumman factories where those planes were built.
Taiwan is an ally of the US and China has been extremely aggressive towards Taiwan. The US will protect Taiwan if China attacks it. China is trying to get Taiwan to do a single “wrong” thing, like defending themselves against Chinese imperialism. So I don’t see how your comment holds up if the chance of China starting it is far more likely.
Oh wait you’re from .ml
“Extremely aggressive” “chinese imperialism” lol sure thing patriot, let me know when they start bombing and building military bases. China isn’t going to attack Taiwan, they don’t need to. The US will alienate Taiwan the same way we’re alienating all of our other “allies” and China will be there to pick up the pieces with no bloodshed required. And fyi “you’re from place i don’t like” isn’t a particularly strong argument.
I’m from Europe buddy. Just wanted to make sure people don’t get tricked by your obviously biased comment that doesn’t even mention the real reason for military tensions.
US citizenship is not a requirement for patriotic brain rot, and you’ve got it bad. The real reason for military tension is the US, a country that has been at war nonstop for more than two centuries now and has military bases on every continent except Antarctica, fucking duh
Get over yourself buddy. The article even mentions Taiwan.
Never said it didn’t, dumbass
