Re: US Foreign Policy: The Wogs Begin at Calais
I would not say China "threatens" anybody with a couple exceptions. (1) They've never acknowledged that Taiwan is an independent country -- they consider them a civil war rebellion. (2) There are Tibetans who want independence and the Chinese have always responded to that with an iron boot.
The Chinese have been non-expansionist going on 2000 years. Their game is the opposite: "You want to invade us? Fine, we surrender. In two generations the people you leave here as occupiers will have become us and we will only be stronger."
The Yellow Peril is a US contractor narrative to keep the gravy train rolling.
I can't see how we're not red on that map. We're been the Invader-in-Chief for more than a century -- regardless of whether one thinks it was partly or even wholly justified, there's no arguing it. We are what our record says we are.
