US Perspective on the Iran - Israel / US War

KAL-EL said:
Though adversaries, short of an existential threat to either Nation, China and the US won't be going to world war 3 anytime soon.
Yes I know there are people here who have a bloodlust that would love to see it happen. They think of it as like a video game.
Accepting in this game, there is no reset button

There is a joke circulating on Chinese social media:

The US: I hope China goes to war with other countries, but I won't get involved!
China: I hope the US goes to war with other countries, but I won't get involved!
The rest of the world: We hope the US and China go to war, but we don't want the conflict to spill over to us!
 
Breaking: Trump: I call on all countries to join us in implementing the largest trade embargo on the terrorist regime in Iran.

When was the last time peers with AC went to battle against one another since WW2, never. So not a good metric.

Still a white elephant v peers.

Peers usually don't fight direct wars but through third parties like US keeping Russia stuck in Ukr
While China & Russia don't have capacity to strangle US in Iran

So just because US is not fighting directly with China doesn't negate its influence over rest of the world.

Snakes are a hard no for me. Everything else I can deal with.

Made easily a hundred trips to Florida. Never once to Orlando.

The article also touches on munitions replacement which is also in-line with what I know from those in the industry and not Twitter experts.
