7. I don't know who needs to hear this, but....

We REALLY need to be shifting a great deal of industrial output TODAY into making weapons and ammunition for the US military, because this thing has the potential to become very, very ugly , and fast.

We need new anti-aircraft missile protection, and new anti-drone protection systems that haven’t even been invented yet, and we need them today- not a year or two or three from now. I’m a progressive, but I’m also a veteran and a realist, and Putin’s adventure is going to destabilize a lot.

We’re piecing out onesies and two dies here by moving anti-aircraft missiles to Poland, but that just shows we need a bunch more in multiple places.


And God help us if the Chinese go for Taiwan right now.

8. You may be interested in this Christopher Steele interview at the

Oxford Union, where he discusses many subjects including China and Taiwan in the q&a towards the end. He believes a Chinese invasion is less likely.

9. Thanks for posting. Surprising that he said Russia is more likely to be invaded by China than NATOnt

10. I guess the primary aim of NATO is defense rather than attack, whereas China have no such limitation

11. Well, no one has said it yet (here, media) but the wild success of bomb/missile armed drones....

..must have our military rushing to develop/test even newer anti-drone weapons. Sure, drones have been used before but in limited roles. Now, the Ukes widespread use of drone to destroy tons of Russkie armor and trucks is startling and shows the power of unmanned aircraft.
