Great analysis! These are difficult and treacherous times, to be sure. If you want another eye-opener, check out Mark Sibley's book "Mongol Moon" -- kinda like "Red Dawn" but with Chinese, and unlike the ridiculous hijinks in "Red Dawn," the basic outline of "Mongol Moon" is scarily plausible, especially given that China has been sending larger than normal numbers of military-age males across our wide-open Southern Border since 2018. (Wonder if those military-aged males have had anything to do with all the industrial accidents that seem to have been on the rise lately?) For another take on why America won't win WWIII, John Carter has this excellent essay over on his substack at "Postcards from Barsoom:" https://barsoom.substack.com/p/why-america-cant-win-world-war-iii
"Are seven billion people really going to die to protect a man whose sole claim to fame in his ability to play the piano with his penis, and a country renowned mainly for its corruption?" Best phrase ever! Not to mention a man dancing in stillettos and tight leather pants!

Scott Ritter would agree. Good post!

Americans are mushrooms buried under manure!
