US incapable of winning a war against China

June 3, 2025

Great analysis covering the stupidity of strengthening an alliance with a country assisting and abetting Nazi regimes in Israel and Ukraine. Just one additional point about it. Even though we know the neoliberal crazies in the US want to invade China and to drag us and any other cretins willing to follow them in this enterprise, the fact is that such an invasion is an impossibility for the US.

To do so, it needs a vast armada of specific kinds of merchant vessels to carry a vast army and tens of millions of tons of war supplies across the vast expanse of the Pacific, along with millions of soldiers which they don’t currently have. It simply doesn’t currently exist. The US Merchant Marine consists of 150 vessels, only 80 of which are suitable. To mount a successful invasion it will need many thousands of such vessels. Unless it intends first to steal the merchant fleet of the country that has the largest merchant fleet in the world it simply cannot be done. And have a guess who owns that very large merchant fleet? You got it in one –China!
