So they not looking for broken arrows but rather pretext to concentration camps in the homelandRemember the same law that prevents the US military from taking down these drones is the same law that prevents the US military from being used against Americans. And Trump is also talking about that. China or Iran is behind it. What a good excuse to repeal the law under the guise it’s a national security threat.
Not really. If Russia had just razed every city regardless of military presence, this war would have been over long ago. I mean, the estimated deaths in Gaza sit between 600k and 1m, we are talking about half of the population exterminated in a year while the Ukraine war's civilian death toll have yet to break 15k in 3 years of all out war.It's mostly the pro-Russian pretending like they have only altruistic goals and never hurt non combatants. The reality if you know from Ukrainian on the ground is that they're essentially doing what Israel wants to do with their neighbors. Displace and kill everyone that doesn't subject themselves. Except they're more succesful as they've driven away millions and killed about as many as well.
There is no contradiction between winning on the battlefield and decapitating enemy leaders. Quite the contrary, because without leaders Ukraine would have lost on the battlefield long ago and would have become a new Syria faster, completely harmless to its neighbors.
Ah yes, the heavy mbts like Abrahams will definitely do well in the mountainous terrain in Taiwan."Experts say Abrams tanks will bolster Taiwan's ability to repel PLA landings
M1A2T tanks and AH-64E Apache helicopters could strengthen Taiwan's defenses" by Keoni Everington
"[...]the first 38 M1A2T Abrams tanks out of 108 purchased from the US arrived at Hsinchu County's Hukou Township.

If "decapitating enemy leaders" doesn't affect the outcome or your goals, then it’s just a PR coup and little else plus a waste of usable intel resources that might get outed for it. Basically what Ukraine does
Many Chinese recognize this point and that's why G2 is a nonstarter.It's true, America is the world's biggest problem and Trump can very much work with China to solve that problem.
Seems like the idea that spy drones don't install ultra-bright lights is just too abstract for the American mind to process.Are they going to discriminate land ownership?
They do, Chinese companies say they have the best EVs, they don’t steal IP, they aren’t starting wars, but the general western population is either too stupid or too crazy.Yes hence why not China talk? That’s how you shake down American confidence. The Chinese don’t need to lie. The “truth” is right there in their own media. So there’s nothing wrong in using it.
