The ability is not big, but the tone is not small, and the United States is really becoming more and more like a joke. Ukraine will not end up beating him, Israel is surrounded and beaten, he still doesn't dare to move, the Houthis have slapped the United States in the face with slippers, and they still maintain their strategic determination, but in the Taiwan Strait area, nothing has happened at all, but the United States has made a lot of nonsense, not only to start a war with China, but also to threaten to turn the Taiwan Strait into a no-man's hell.
The U.S. military threatens to intervene in the Taiwan Strait to create a no-man's hell?
According to a Washington Post report on June 10, during the Shangri-La Dialogue held not long ago, Admiral Samuel Paparo, commander of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, said in an interview that once Chinese mainland's fleet begins to unify Taiwan by force, the U.S. military will implement a strategy called "Hell Landscape" to deploy thousands of unmanned submarines, unmanned surface ships and unmanned aircraft to turn the Taiwan Strait into an unmanned hell.
There is only one reason why this naval commander is so arrogant, in the past few decades, no country has ever had the ability to challenge the United States, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States has become the undisputed world hegemon, a Gulf War, the United States easily defeated Iraq, scared other countries into the air, since then, the US military has begun to run rampant and hegemonic all over the world, the uncle is used to it, even if China has risen, their arrogance can not be changed.
But in fact, the United States is not qualified to talk to China like this, and China is the real expert when it comes to playing with drones. At the 2022 Zhuhai Air Show, China unveiled a suborbital unmanned aerial vehicle called Mingdi-22, with a flight speed of Mach 7, a range of 8,000 kilometers and a load of 600 kilograms, which may be the most powerful drone in the world.
If Mingdi 22 is combined with artificial intelligence, Beidou positioning and other capabilities, it is a real big killer, like the combat method of civilian drones dropping bombs on the Russian-Ukrainian battlefield, in the eyes of China, it is like a playhouse, there is no comparison at all, and the Grim Reaper drone used by the United States is also a whole generation behind, and even the Houthis can knock down the American drone, in front of China, this kind of goods is completely out of reach. What's more, China is still the world's factory, and the United States wants to fight China with a swarm of drones, purely asking for trouble, and they will see what real overcapacity is.
The United States itself knows very well that there is a gap between China and UAVs and is unlikely to really come over to die.
At the same time, we can also see that even when the United States is deceiving Taiwan, it has also indicated a message, that is, the US military will not go to the front line, and the drone swarm has an advantage in this combat method, which does not require soldiers to fight, and can intervene in the battlefield only with machines, perhaps this is the limit of what the United States can do. The Taiwan authorities should wake up in time, because although the United States is strong, they are more intimidated than anyone else, and they dare not fight either Russia nor the Houthis.
U.S. aircraft carrier fleet enters the South China Sea, hoping for war in Asia?
Therefore, even though the United States did not dare to fight the Houthis, it still dared to show off its military might in front of China and sailed its aircraft carrier fleet into the South China Sea.
According to a report by the US newspaper Stars and Stripes, on 10 June, eight warships led by the US aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan sailed into the South China Sea to begin the "Brave Shield" military exercise, and Japan's Self-Defense Forces also sent 4,000 troops, eight ships, and 60 aircraft to participate.
The joint exercises between the United States and Japan, and the aircraft carrier fleet sailing into the South China Sea, have only one purpose, that is, to support the Philippines and support them in a war with China. The current world situation is very interesting, the Russian-Ukrainian war and the Palestinian-Israeli conflict have reached a stalemate at the same time, which makes the United States very painful, Russia is the world's top military power, the United States has no way to take them, plus the resistance groups in the Middle East, it is also a hard bone that cannot be gnawed, so the situation of the United States is extremely embarrassing, and the world hegemony has existed in name only.
In this case, what the United States is most afraid of is China, and only China can be the arbiter who sent American hegemony to the grave, and what Biden needs to do now is to weaken China's strength and avoid the worst, and instigating allies such as the Philippines and Japan to go to war with China is the best way.
From a financial point of view, the same conclusion can be drawn: the United States wants Asian countries to consume each other so that they can reap the benefits. Now the United States is in a rate hike cycle, the federal funds rate is above 5%, the risk of a national debt crash is very high, and the interest burden is very heavy, which is a typical state of high blood pressure. But before cutting interest rates, the United States must ensure that Europe, the Middle East, and Asia are in a state of war, otherwise, once interest rates are lowered, international capital will abandon the United States on a large scale, and then the real world will fall apart, and the US stock market may plummet like Japan at the beginning, evaporating most of the country's wealth, so the United States is intensifying contradictions and sending wrong signals to its Asia-Pacific allies to continue to provoke China until war breaks out.
If Asia fights, there is another benefit for the United States, which has the opportunity to harvest China. Previously, the United States has launched a number of financial offensives against other countries, whether it is the dollar tide, or shorting other countries' currencies, the effect is not very obvious, not cutting enough leeks, at most only Europe, Japan, South Korea These allies suffer, because China has huge dollar reserves, helping some countries get out of the debt trap, the United States is very difficult to get, but if the next war breaks out in Asia, China falls into the quagmire, the situation is completely different, the United States may take the opportunity to expand the financial war, so that more countries go bankrupt, Even harvesting China is not impossible.
In short, the current world situation is such that the United States itself is caught in a strategic nightmare, and the financial level is also half-cut into the ground, so they are trying to plan a world war near Eurasia, copy the script of World War II, and help themselves through the crisis.
China's three 10,000-ton destroyers entered the stadium and resolutely opposed hegemony
In the face of deliberate provocations by the United States, China's attitude is also tough, and three 10,000-ton destroyers have entered the stadium and are ready to confront the United States head-on in the South China Sea. On June 12, the Chinese People's Liberation Army announced that the Southern Theater had sent three Type 055 and Type 052C missile destroyers to form a training formation to conduct actual combat training in the South China Sea.
Judging from the number and tonnage, it seems that the ship formations sent by China are not as good as those of the United States and Japan, and the United States has even dispatched aircraft carriers, but China only uses missile destroyers to deal with it, is it too light for the enemy? In fact, this is not the case, the mode of modern warfare has long changed, not to be bigger, but to be tougher, China's electronic warfare capabilities are ahead of the world, one 055 missile destroyer is enough to suppress an entire aircraft carrier battle group, and sending three out at once is already very face-saving.
In 2022, the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier battle group conducted military exercises in the western Pacific, and China sent a 055 Nanchang ship to confront it at that time, and the two sides confronted each other for more than 20 days. Now that two years have passed, the United States' electronic warfare capabilities will definitely improve, but China is not standing still, sending three destroyers to confront, which can only be said to be just right.
Many people may ask, why is China so tough on the United States when it doesn't want to see a war break out in Asia? If China chooses to tolerate it, the United States will only become more and more arrogant and kick its nose in the face, which will not only fail to safeguard its core interests, but will also become more dangerous in Asia.
More importantly, China's attitude can affect the world situation to a large extent. Although Russia and the resistance groups in the Middle East are not allied with China, they are both among the core forces opposing US hegemony, and China must step up and bear some of the pressure to reassure them.
Under the maximum pressure of the United States, the Houthis and Lebanese and other resistance groups have not yielded, and are still stubbornly confronting Israel, and Russia has also taken out nuclear weapons and is ready to fight to the end with the West.
At any time in history, whether it is China or other countries, there will always be capitulation factions, there will be cynical people, these people are too weak, they forget their righteousness in the face of small profits, and they do big things and spare their lives, if these people are allowed to steal high positions, things will only get worse and worse, fortunately, China has enough confidence and patience to confront the US hegemony, and China's strategic wisdom is far from being comparable to that of the United States.
Seventy percent of the people in the Philippines are hostile to China, and a war in the South China Sea is inevitable?
In this part of the South China Sea, China has no way out at all, and although the United States is only bluffing, the risk of war does exist.
According to French media reports on June 10, a private polling agency in the Philippines recently released a survey report, which showed that 76 percent of the Filipino people believe that China is their biggest threat, and 73 percent of respondents said that they support confronting China through military force on the South China Sea issue.
Seventy percent of the people in the Philippines are hostile to China, and this result is not surprising; since Marcos Jr. came to power, he has continued to deepen military cooperation with the United States, Japan, Australia, and other Western countries, so that the Philippines has become more and more blindly confident, unable to figure out how many pounds and taels he has, and fantasizes about wrestling with China at the military level.
According to the Russian Sputnik news agency, on June 12, Philippine Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro claimed in an interview that China's claims in the South China Sea put the Philippines under an existential threat, and that the Philippines will never back down despite being bullied, and that Manila will continue to strengthen its military power, cooperate with more countries outside the region, and persist in confronting China.
China's claims to the South China Sea have always been consistent, with many historical documents as legal basis, and there is no dispute at all, and the Philippines, itself the perpetrator of tensions in the South China Sea, is now pretending to be pitiful and accusing China of bullying them.
As the Philippine defense secretary, Teodoro's remarks were extremely inflammatory, and if anti-China sentiment in the country could not be suppressed, it was almost certain that war would break out. The confidence of the Philippines mainly comes from the "US-Philippines Mutual Defense Treaty" and the military cooperation agreements signed with Japan and other countries after Marcos Jr. came to power.
But for China, there is no room for bargaining on the South China Sea issue, and even if the United States, Japan, and the Philippines unite, they will not be able to shake China's determination to defend themselves. The Philippines must understand that there are many countries that want united front values, but their own strength should be worthy of that ambition, if it is too unrealistic, then it is no different from seeking death.
