its pretty likely at this point

you think? Im not aware of why that would be likely.

my hypthesis was that from the CCP perspective, we may be distracted and once we've dealt with this distraction, are attention is turning to them

especially if Trump retains power

well the US is pretty terrible at long term conflicts

maybe they could try to turn southeast asia red again

and maybe

We could have another long unpopular war with a kickass soundtrack

I am personally hyped for that possibility

lol yea of any place down that way myanmar would be the one. Ocean access and no pesky international law issues in the water.

too bad its the wrong ocean lol

i'd rather be in the pacific or 20 years than the goddamn desert

the jungle is worse than the desert

Did you ever watch The Pacific on HBO?

I've been in both climates

give me the desert bro fuck the jungle

at least you dont have mosquitos and land leeches in thedesert

in Vietnam almost all troops had jungle rot

and the standard water ration was 2 gallons per day

but I LOVE THE VIETNAM WAR

I WANT TO COMMIT ATROCITIES SURROUNDED BY RICE PADDIES

nam was the most aesthetic war and we might actually get some good music again

and some loosened ROE <:atlast:758774926869004348>

I doubt US would put boots on the ground unless it became CCP v US directly

advisors and some tripwires but probably not front liners

welllllll technically the US military presence in Vietnam was advising from 1958-1964

under the name "Military assistance command, Vietnam"

granted but I would just hope it doesnt go that way

I dont want boots on the ground in asia any more than we already have.

seriously, I do agree

8 million people died in the Vietnam war

it was the biggest conflict since WW2

advise, help with signint, and naval cooperation is enough.

"lead from behind"

and extinguish the communists

you wana fight a war in the jungle eh?

lol

coime down here to louisiana

ill get you aclimated

how long can you tread water?

cuse where we are going there is more water than land
