CHINA TO “REMAIN NEUTRAL”

The media in China. It’s nothing more than the mouthpiece of the government. Yes, some say the same thing about the West, but it’s nothing more than a rhetorical statement once someone or some nation calls them out into the light of the obvious. So today, a Chinese media outlet makes the statement that China would remain “neutral” if North Korea took any action that might threaten the US? A scripted message? Yes. Every statement from the Chinese is “scripted”. Flying off the handle like The Donald is not a characteristic of the Chinese. “We won’t protect them if they do something really stupid”! That’s it? That is the message? Who is the message for? The North? The US? Yes…..Yes to both. Then came the backside of the “message”. If the US or South Korea, ad any other US Allies here if you like, take actions to try to change the government in North Korea, China will not “allow” that to happen. What does that mean? You can strike the capabilities of the North, but just don’t attempt a regime change? Leave the Little Fat nut-job in power? Sounds crazy, but wait, what was the End-State of Desert Storm?

LOCKED AND LOADED:

Yes. The US military is “locked and loaded”! It is always “locked and loaded”.  So, what else could that mean? If that statement is a message, who is it to? Worse, who reads it and thinks it’s for them? Is the US and China talking about this latest round of North Korean madness? You know they are. Can someone get the word to the Chinese that, “Locked and Loaded” doesn’t apply to them? Well, we better hope so. Who can make the next inflammatory statement? This is like watching a Tennis Match and the Chinese sponsor both players.

BACK TO THE BASICS:

I’ve been saying this for a few months now and it’s time to say it one more time.  Let’s look at the basics of this whole issue.
China’s desire is to be the dominant power in the Pacific.
China’s desire is to control the world economic trading process. Can you say New Silk Road?
China realizes the goals they have set are not going to be achieved without conflict.
China must manipulate that conflict to insure the damage doesn’t nullify desire’s one or two.
China anticipates the population in the major actors of the conflict, US, Japan, South Korea, are not and will not be supportive of a dramatic event.
China believes that after such an event, the logic for US military power in the region will be gone. Win or Lose.
China has prepared itself to be the one nation that can “rebuild” the economic damage to the region and the world.
China sees at the end of the day, China has what it wants. It’s the Regional power and it controls the rebuilding of the world economy.


Sound crazy?  We are witnessing a very scripted process on the part of the Chinese. A process that has been yeas in the making. Today’s message of, “We would be neutral”, perhaps it’s the last shove to get two people into a fight?
