War Between China and Japan; A Realistic Possibility?

[Habbaku]

Chinese, Taiwanese, Japanese, Vietnamese, and Filipino women should be encouraged to come to America as refugees.

Why? It ruins them.

How?

It'd make them Americans. 

[katmai]

it ruined Habbu.

I'm all for importing more Asian chicks.  Except Filipinos.  They're like chunky Mexicans with slanty eyes.

[Eddie Teach]

Due to the silly poll structure, I have the US defending the Philippines and Taiwan but not Japan. They'll have to fend for themselves. 

That's about as silly as saying you'd defend Italy and the Netherlands, but not the UK.  Retarded.

Hey, Tim's the one who only gave us two votes with multiple non-exclusive options on the table.

Then you do what I do when it comes to Timmaytard polls:  IGNORE 

[Grey Fox]

I voted : Yes, it is & China won't attack anyone.

Because I could.

[Darth Wagtaros]

Remake People's General so we can game this out with 21st century graphics and game engines.

[The Brain]

Is "Flying Fortress" still the best American IFF system in a Sino-Japanese conflict?

[mongers]

Timmay, do 'great minds' think alike ?

Crappy poll choices and an alarmist article, but the best-connected and most savvy Chinese exchange student I have was just discussing this with me yesterday, and he feels that Chinese popular opinion is so intolerant of japan that the Chinese government, even if it weren't at a precarious point in the transition of power, would be hard-pressed to justify any concessions whatever.

My student thinks the government definitely does not want a serious conflict, but that it may have to do something dramatic to ease public tempers, and that something dramatic may have the potential to be misinterpreted as being more hostile than was intended.  That could be very bad for all concerned.

Japan would smoke their asses in the air, on the water, and under it.  Even without us.

[Ed Anger]

Lettow will form the okatu brigade which will be wiped out in a mass banzai charge.

[Neil]

Japan needs to develop atomics.

[Phillip V]

Japan needs to make more babies.

The Chinese government will likely come to an agreement and then lie to people.  Besides, nearly everyone in East Asia hates Japan.
