"There is a lot of unrest just now in China. Like Russia though it’s ruled by a brutal regime. They have a much smarter and world savvy middle class , educated population so let’s hope they rise up in revolt. Throw these tired boring old relics out and join the 21st century." That’s what ping is scared of is that the younger generation is waking up to the fact that the Chinese way is outdated and oppressive. Trouble is the whole country just like Russia is ruled on fear and ignorance. The old people are so well programmed or are just too scared to say anything against the government. | |||

Like it or not Ukraine is only the beginning of Russian plans and it needs American aid to hold" Well I think it would be incredibly difficult without American involvement. Not impossible though. Don't get me wrong I would rather they were involved. I also think we can appreciate what the US brings to the table and still criticise what they are getting wrong. I think the most frustrating part with the US thinking they are the world #1 despite not leading anything except for military might and objectively bad things. Is that if they admitted their failings as a whole and worked on them they have the resources to actually be what they are want to claim. | |||

"Ok I will assume you cannot answer the question because the USA has in fact Never tried an America First policy despite your claims to the contrary. Please correct me if I am wrong. The UK has never used the Euro, all through its membership of the EU it still used the Pound. Brexit has been an unmitigated disaster, there is a thread in these politics forum where brexiteers were challenged to find a benefit of Brexit with an incredibly poor exception they were incapable of doing so.

"I suppose the question could be posed as, are the biggest threat to world peace the USA? I think clearly so."

"Its a complicated situation. As you said Russia and China are literally "allies" only of convenience but Russia doesn't see it that way and resents any insinuation China is above them. Russia clearly sees itself as dominant and China as lower and will get a shock when China doesn't accept that status. It is true although without Chinese aid the sanctions would bite Russia much deeper. As for Putin "making it" on Ukraine he still could on his own maybe but he certainly can't fulfil his other ambitions without China(remember he thought he would have won months ago he expected to be riling his people against Moldova by now )." Yes, it is complicated situation as well, as I see the key word here is "as long as", that is cos china is building its own supplies, so when they have them ready they they wont be dependent on russia. I think that is how many other countries are thinking as well, to move away from them and not to be so dependent on them, just cos of the gas and oil | |||

"If the Uk and Europe is totally satisfied with their existence why does everyone need our military to make them feel a semblance of safety? not being arrogant but why is that ? We get condemned.. yet it's the same standpoint ."We'd probably be a strong nuclear power if they hadn't forced the British Scientists on the Manhattan project to hand over their research documents before leaving and closing the door behind them. German and British Science developed most of the atomic weapons, Churchill agreed to let them go to America in case of sabotage or invasion, yet came back with nothing. It was supposed to be an Allied Collaboration, not leaving us begging for US made Nukes on Whitehouse terms whether we can use them. We were shafted.. we gave the US the knowledge for very little in return. | |||

"I suppose the question could be posed as, are the biggest threat to world peace the USA? I think clearly so. how so ? We been a a young nation compared to others what rhetoric? We learned from other nations. Your conception is weak. we global project .. everyone cries foul. Europe is the reason we do that in the first place. We try and go to a American first policy... Yet foul again. Make your damn minds up
America has CLAIMED to want to go to an America First policy, it has never actually tried to do it. Any claim to the contrary is a lie, probably by a politician trying to win a vote.
It wants to still influence the rest of the globe but doesn't want the responsibility that comes with it.
Exactly because it is a toddler of a country. toddlers have tantrums and that is why it is potentially the biggest threat on the global stage.
Temper Tantrum with Nukes.. Yet it's a concept people want.. prior to WW2 have we had that political objective?
Some people want, more people (according to Pew research) want you involved more in the global stage.
And pre WW2 was exactly as I described The US wanted to exert its power where it wanted but didn't want any of the responsibility that came with it.
America is Fallible. Just like ANY other country. Cosmos know the UK ispre WW2 we were pacifist."Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha | |||

"So much talk on here about the "America First Policy", but American international politics and international policies have followed a very similar pattern for many many decades, and is in itself an America First Policy in that it is a classicaly imperialist state who wish to weild its power around the globe and to open all markets to it's economic dominance, and to make it's economic system the hegemonic system across the globe. They will use economic means and levers where they can to prise open economies, but where they can't they've never been opposed to using force and finding pretexts. The reason we see such provocation now in China is because they are the rising superpower and America are relatively on the wain. But let's not kid ourselves that America's role has been and is the protection of others around the world. The huge military spend is and always has been to protect their financial and political interests, as with every imperial power. As was Britain in the past. As was Rome. We are in a period of flux as the US wanes and China grows, this is a much more dangerous situation than Russia. It's Sparta and Athens." Do we need to be the global projection yes or no? If you find with china's influence who am I to judge your perception.if you and everyone agrees to that why do we need to project,? Vote china influence then and accept it. | |||

No it isn't even close to accurate. $113.1 billion for example goes to the department of veteran's affairs which has nothing to do with global defence. Homeland security gets 54.9 billion of it, and that is a purely domestic spend. The list goes on. | |||
