in fact it's of primary importance for china to threat us continental assets with conventional forces. May be deploy intermediate hypersonic weapons in nicaragua or venezuela or cuba.
It was inevitable that their Russia strategy would also be set up against China.

We can say that 100% Japan and Australia will host missiles. Any ideas who else will agree? I doubt SK will accept

Anyone who hosts these missiles that in the event of war, their country will be bombed back to stone age in retaliation.
You cant agree to host missiles that target me and expect a slap in the wrist.

I hope they will weigh their options and decide only after assessing the risk.

If a country like Philippines or South Korea decides that hosting missiles that target China is worth the risk of nuclear annihilation, let them be

As always America usually follows up these summits with an aggressive action.
China will have to learn the hard way
I wonder if Xi ever invited Biden to the Olympic in the first place? Probably Biden was waiting and waiting, invitation never come, so he decided to make a "boycott". Typical of "No, you don't leave me, I leave you" kind of face-saving rubbish.

To be honest, I don't think China will invite any state delegation for the matter of pendamic, except limited number of IOC VIPs. The whole winter game operation is carried out in a quarantine zone. No foreign athletes or staff members can get out of it. No exceptions, the Americans won't be willing to stay in a virtual prison. Biden knows he won't get the treatment that he got in Italy and Scottland, so he want to make a farce out of it, a cheap shot.

Certainly not.
  1. Why would these countries be willing to put themselves in the cross fire? Being the targets in the first wave of a possible conflict?
  2. SK put itself in such position because it is not an independent country, whose military is still under the control of a occupation power. Those countries are not.
  3. One don't treat friends by using them as canon fodder, that is slave master treaing slaves.
China is not US, those countries are not SK and Japan.

If sk decides to host us intermediate range missiles, expect China to drop all sanctions on north korea and even arm them with df-21 hgv
Imagine north korea having an hgv that can strike blue house in less than 15 mins lol
Therefore its highly unlikely that sk would allow the us to host irbm on their soil

THAAD already there
The article in question is talking about IRBM or Cruise missiles which are attacking weapons, it is a totally different matter from THAAD.

WASHINGTON -- With China building up its military, the U.S. should engage with Japan and other Indo-Pacific partners on deploying intermediate-range missiles in the region to deter a crisis in the Taiwan Strait, an influential bipartisan advisory body said in a report published Wednesday.

Earlier this month, Squid Game surpassed HBO‘s Game of Thrones in terms of viewership of online video content, earning 17 billion views across long and short-form videos on YouTube.

I personally didn't watch much of GoT or Squid Game. I'm watching a TV show called Dynasty about a billionaire family fighting over an inheritance. Much more interesting to me - money, politics and power. But not politics in a direct way like House of Cards. So much more interesting.

I got a recommendation for it from an investment banking website, and if an I banker says a TV show is good, it's got to be really juicy intellectually.

Has anyone watched Dune recently? I heard it's pretty good.
There's this show called Billions running on HBO as well as SUCCESSION that you should give a try since you seemed to like Dynasty. The shows mentioned deal with the topics you raised that are done far better than Dynasty IMHO.
