US: China military capability grows amid tensions

[æRLO]

---

what do you think guys.. are these all talk.. or there will be a real shooting conflict between the US and China soon?

it won't happen, unless there is a big flashpoint. And I mean BIG. pareha ra ni sa Cold War, it will be more on proxy wars rather than a real shooting war between them. When you start seeing sanctions between the two countries, then that's foreboding.

[M.A.D.]

no conventional war will happen. just proxies and war on the internet which has already started and both countries have begun accusing each other of cyber attacks.

Pareha ani nga nag arms race

Imagine that in the hands of the terrorists. There's always a threat that something like this could happen. That's why counterterrorism is a MUST bahalag buslot2x pang bulsa sa pag maintain. Kay ug mahitabo gani ni ambot lang. Countries are too confined unsa nahitabo sa ilang nasod pero wala mag think sa bigger picture nga something like the Tsar bomb could explode at any moment. At what's worse is: That's 50 years ago. Imagine a modern day Tsar bomb. Possible kaha nga mapikas ang kalibutan literally?

Taken for granted raba jud kaayo ning mga news bahin aning mga nuclear disarmament kay most people don't care. They cared much about their personal lives.

OnT:

Karon dili naman gubat or pahambogay ug gamit kay daugon naman ron sa economy. It's not a war between countries ron panahona kundi war between countries and terrorist network. The difference between a country and a terrorist is: YOU CAN REASON WITH A COUNTRY.

So in the end, mankind is the reason ngano ma end ang world. Destructive nature

honestly, I'd rather die by that kind of bomb than an attack with the use of nerve agents. At least with a direct thermonuclear explosion, death is instantaneous--if ma-apektahan ka ug nerve agent like sarin or VX, the duration may or may not be short--but it sure as hell is a terribly painful experience before death. But both weapons are scary nonetheless.

I dont think china is stupid to go to war with the US... US can blow china 30 times over... 7300 nukes vs 250...
On the other side of the coin, US will also not go to war for Pinas... We're pretty much on our own on this one which China is fully aware...

War (which i think there already is) are probably fought in the shadows... If not all, covert ops/ off books..
Too bad murag wala gyud na nauso dri pinas... But wont whine.. Saon tman...

[letsee!]

power abuser man ang china...

what is communist...power hungry.

[The Rocker]

naa gyud ni plano worldwide dominance ang china kay grabe build up sa ilang military infrastructures and arsenal

[æRLO]

but seriously, China can't afford to go to a major war now. Their export-based economy will simply collapse.

I've been in two chinese employers and both of them are the same... ilang ginansya ra ang gi huna2x. if imo tanawn ang mga negosyante nga insik sa ato... pare pareho ra. daghan nila kay below minimum wage ang i sweldo sa ilang employees with no benefits. mao nang grabe na ka dato ang mga insik kay bisan dagko og ginansya, gamay kaayo mo sweldo plus mang lihay pa gyud og taxes (heard it from our company's vise president himself maong maka dive amo price against sa competitors). naa bitaw poy amaw nga japanese og americans pero wala ra na sila compared sa mga insik. naa nako ron sa australia unya based sa akong experience, ang chinese og lebanese ang lisod ka trabaho. dili mo cooperate as a team unya dili mo share og knowledge. late last year lang kay gi football ang usa ka chinese engineer namo kay gi koypa sa iyang external drive ang tanan company documents including confidential files og trade secrets. may gani na sakpan

This is exactly what I am trying to imposed sa pikas na thread na gipatak-an lang ug basa sa gapataka lang ug comment na wa kabalo unsa ang buot ipaibot. Kay daw diay maau ang ilahang kasinatian sa pagtrabaho nila sa mga pikot di na lang makalingi sa kadaghan na pinoy na gakapikot na lang sad tungod kay kapiyongon na sa kagutom... mao ni na klase sa mga tao na ila ra sad kaugalingon ang giatubang kay maau na man sila, wa na dayon labot sa uban.

China is just flexing there muscles and military power. They won't go to war with the US since they know for a fact that it would deal a huge cost at their economy. I just hope that the Philipines will invest also more in military power rather than putting money in their own pockets but I guess as the late Pres. Manuel Quezon said "“I would rather have a country run like hell by Filipinos than a country run like heaven by the Americans". So here we are dwelling in hell.hahahahah
