China is no match for the US. They will lose their air craft carrier in the first hour if they try lol. And they won't.
It's not going to be a military battle... the ships are for optics only.

This is geopolitics on the world stage... not some millennial video game.

You're going to piss off a lot of right wingers with that line.
Not to mention a touch of cultural genocide for bonus.

You're not even a tiny bit worried that you're backing racial supremacists who just might be going a little genocidal?
Better not to read the guardian just in case?
Do you deny that Jews and Arabs are both the same race?

With China stepping in, it's just a matter of time before the US calls for a ceasefire.

The world won't stand and watch while the slaughter continues.

Many Western and non-Western governments are opposed to the Israel's actions but don't have the leverage to voice their displeasure.
100% on all three points

So you have no other explanation for your statement that it was racially motivated. It doesn't matter, you have been labelled by many people other than me.
Who are these "many people"? Do they have handles?

That is very true. Given the racism on both sides you could actually make the argument that both sides are anti-semitic.
It's not racism. That's the thing. It's indoctrinated hate. Been passed on through generations upon generations.

What exact geopolitics do you foresee? What do you think China can do? Even non-militarily?
What we will see and be told will be smoke and mirrors, grandstanding and posturing, saving face and illusions.

On the side where the action is taking place, it'll be dealt with using diplomacy.

Nobody in power is stupid enough to start something akin to WW3 over Israel/Palestine.

Probably sectarianism is more appropriate.
Yes great description..Spot on.

Jumping off....I felt sorry for Volkanovski yesterday. He shouldn't have taken that fight. In the post fight presser he was clearly dealing with emotional issues.

On the one hand it's a very bold move on China's part, on the other if they can impose themselves to any reasonable degree,
they will totally score a big win on the propaganda front, they will gain all the moral authority the U.S. will lose.
I said it on another post back, the U.S. will pay dearly for years, not militarily, but in other spheres of influence.
