[QUOTE="ronny, post: 1586345, member: 8853"] If you would actually read what I said - the only thing I dismiss is the notion that the hunters in this, or any other country, are gonna defeat a modern, invading army which was strong enough to defeat the U.S. military and still mount an invasion. That would mean that they had control of both the air and the sea and that our allies were not in a position to be of any assistance. Do I believe this scenario would ever take place? No! We would have used nukes long before it got to this point. As would the Chinese. And, would Russia have just sat back and watched? Not likely. They would probably nuke us both. This country would be a hellhole and your idea of the "hunter army" doing anything other than finding enough food to live is pie in the sky. And, to answer your question, the most likely scenario is economic and electronic war. Before this year is long gone, we may find our military subject to a $500,000,000,000 budget cut. We are well ahead of China technology, but that margin is rapidly narrowing. China could exacerbate our already desperate financial situation through various means, including calling our debt. They push hard enough and we may be at the nuclear brink. On the other hand, our politicians may just roll over. Our best hope is that China's bubble bursts before they get to the point where they feel they can openly challenge us. [/QUOTE]
