I do not know much about Zionism and other isms, but am fairly certain the brand of communism that freed China from foreign domination was more of a revolution and less about dominating foreigners. Domestic issues are (always) more complicated.

The problem w/ trying to dominate foreigners is that for the 'dominee', the struggle is forever until not. Foreign affairs are almost always invariable less complicated than domestic issues.

I have made several broad-brush points without much thought and am sure there would be holes in the logic, but difficult to see the contra-statements do better had I made above.

In any case, none can blame China for maintaining nukes as China had been threatened with nuke strikes by both America and Russia. Of the three major powers, China's nuke profile is likely the astute one, per not too much and not too little, and essentially all mobile, by trucks, trains, planes, and submarines, all multiple warheads, and all inexpensive.

The domain that matters is likely space, and that has both military as well as civilian uses, on par w/ trucks and trains, unlike silos, submarines, and strategic bombers.

I see a world of many more nuclear powers, and perhaps just like in the old west of USA, make the world safer? or not?

Monopolies are bad. Oligopolies not much better. Universal utility ? - let's see.
