In the strategic vision of the U.S., Russia should be disarmed to become part of Europe as a "sidekick" and a bridgehead to contain China, the "more dangerous enemy" as Kissinger described it.
but our friends in China need to understand that these political elites have the will, resources, and power to wage two wars against China and Russia at the same time and are not afraid to use nuclear weapons.
If these wars occur they will make Vietnam and Afghanistan look like unopposed victories.
Never even mind nukes. Imagine the absolute horror of a city like Shanghai being subjected to a ballistic missile salvo. Or the consequences of a California-wide coastal blackout lasting months or even years. Imagine the inevitable domestic alignments, resulting in the ethnic cleansing of foreigners. The grisly march across the ocean by 21st century navies staffed with nothing but teenage reservists and veteran psychos. The horror of it would scar the entire Pacific Rim for a thousand years.

They'll make Ukraine look like a Lads' Night Out.
