<<. GATA won't change things. I can't see what will>> Perhaps this? Like it or not, I fear it is coming: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- America's 'war' with China -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The war begins at dawn as over 100,000 invasion troops, in three massive waves, surge across narrow waters to find a morning beachhead on the Taiwanese shores. The first wave of 100,000 red troops is soon followed by up to seven more waves of 100,000 Chinese soldiers, for a total of eight Chinese armies hurled into a terrific assault. As part of the pre-invasion attack, huge numbers of People's Liberation Army Air Force jets streak across the waters to bomb Taiwanese air bases. In the skies, hundreds of missiles, and thousands of MiGs overwhelm the small Taiwanese Air Force. One or two of the bases continue to function but are soon swept aside by the tide of red MiGs. Taiwanese cities are seen on global television taking direct hits from missile after missile, launched by the 2nd Artillery Corps from inside the Chinese mainland. One or two of the Asian cities disappear in a blinding flash, as nuclear-tipped missiles take out strategic ports and critical military facilities. In and around the skies of Taiwan, U.S., Japanese and Asian ally fighter jets frantically hurl themselves in fruitless attacks to stem the tide. F-117A Stealth bombers fly bold and effective strikes from Okinawa until a direct hit from a Chinese ballistic missile closes the base and kills thousands. At sea, a massive force of U.S. carriers converges from two different directions; one from the Indian Ocean and another from across the Pacific. The forces are soon spotted by Chinese satellites using purchased American technology and are targeted. Each group is attacked by waves of Chinese bombers and missiles one thousand miles from Taiwan, with each wave growing larger as they approach. In the end, the Chinese sink two nuclear aircraft carriers and a major portion of the U.S. fleet in a grinding assault of suicide planes. All is lost. Taiwan falls and begins a dark period of subject occupation by the communist forces. America enters a protracted war with China. This scenario has been played out at the highest levels inside the Pentagon, using advanced war game systems. It does not end well for America. However, one other war game recently played inside the defense establishment had a very different result. There are many Chinese military weaknesses, but there is one critical weak link in its plan to take Taiwan, that of submarine warfare. The leader in submarine war is America, and despite the years of Clinton neglect, the U.S. Navy silent service still rules supreme over the world's oceans. There is one and only one hope that can stem the tide -- sink the landing ships full of PLA troopers and save Taiwan. The American Pacific nuclear submarine force responds with a single order, "Sink 'em!" No Chinese vessel on or below the (cont) worldnetdaily.com
