The U.S. military advocates the establishment of a military cordon to contain China, and $20 billion is not enough to plug the gaps in the teeth

Creating enemies is a common tactic used by the United States to win over allies and maintain its global hegemonic position. During the Cold War, the former Soviet Union became an enemy of the United States, and after the end of the Cold War, China and Russia, especially China, became the "enemies" of the United States. To this end, in recent years, the United States has been constantly hollowing out its thoughts, hoping to "conquer" China with its own strength and status to ensure that its hegemonic system will never be challenged.

Davidson, commander of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, recently told Congress that he hopes to spend $20 billion to establish a strong military cordon from California to Japan to the Asia-Pacific region. The reason is that if the United States does not have a significant and convincing conventional deterrent, China will have the potential to take action in the region to replace the United States. "Beijing Daily" reported on the 17th that the US military wants to "conquer China" by any means.

Davidson's vision to Congress is to plan to increase military investment and establish a long "cordon" from California to Japan, that is, the US military will deploy anti-missile systems, land-based medium-range missile bases, and strategic bombers in the territory of allies along the route, forming a new military island chain for China. Davidson's ultimate goal is to "make China feel threatened, so as to deter China from using its missile superiority as a threat to the United States."

But ideals often have a huge gap with reality, for the simple reason that the US military is not enough to plug the gap between its $20 billion and the US military to establish this long military cordon. What's more, it is unknown whether U.S. allies along the route, including Japan and Australia, would risk retaliation by Chinese missiles and allow the United States to deploy missiles on their borders.

Since the Beginning of the Trump Administration, the United States has spent more than $700 billion on the military every year, which is not yet able to bring China and other opponents to the knees, even if it is added to the $20 billion, the will to "conquer China" can only be realized in dreams. What's more, Davidson's idea is clearly a strategic bottomless pit, and it is still unknown whether congress will give this money. Therefore, some analysts believe that Davidson's view is "full of science fiction".

It is no wonder that the outside world is not optimistic about Davidson's vision, which is actually the consistent means of the US military to cheat money. Even if the US Congress satisfies Davidson's unrealistic application and allocates an additional $20 billion to the Indo-Pacific Command, it is very likely that the US military has made some strategic ideas to defraud money before, and in the end, the money will be lost and the idea will not be solved.

There is still a considerable gap between China and the United States in terms of military strength and economic strength. This means that China's rise will not pose a threat to U.S. bases on home or abroad. In other words, if the United States does not regard China as an adversary, China will not be able to take the initiative to provoke the United States without any trouble. Therefore, when some US politicians advocate the "China threat theory," it is not that China will threaten the United States, but that they are a habitual means of making huge profits for US politics and interest groups.

The decline of the United States from its peak state after the end of the Cold War to the crumbling fate of the Empire State Building today is not caused by external factors, but by the evil consequences of internal decay. Even former US President Trump has to admit that the United States is hurting itself. According to overseas network reports, Trump said bluntly in a public speech a few days ago that the United States is "the most difficult country to deal with, not China or Russia, but the United States itself."

Trump's statement is not just to criticize Biden. During his four-year tenure, his administration used almost all means, except war, to launch an all-out provocation against China that had been rare in decades. As a result, the pace of China's rise is still moving forward, but the United States is mired in multiple crises such as the epidemic and ethnic conflicts.

What caused this consequence was not that China's strength hurt the United States, but that the United States launched a "suicide charge" at all costs in order to contain China, resulting in the United States "insufficient success in fighting the epidemic and more than enough to provoke overseas disputes." Therefore, while the United States exports turmoil and conflict crises to the outside world, it also brings the risk of civil war and even division at home. Trump is a "witness" in the process of the decline of the United States, and naturally knows better than anyone about the "self-harm" behavior of the United States.

Therefore, when the two aircraft carrier strike groups and an amphibious guard group of the US military are about to gather in the South China Sea to prepare to "conquer China" at the military level, China has opened its doors to welcome dignitaries from all over the world and is ready to hold a sports event that attracts worldwide attention. At this time, the United States frequently staged a realistic version of Hollywood disaster movies.
