Nuclear weapons reductions? Not if you're China.

Anthony! sent me this article from the Washington Post (thanks guy!) and it pretty much confirms what everyone is thinking but its not PC to say.

I mean seriously.  China has been rapidly upgrading its land, air and sea forces...has upped its ambitions in space and we're suppose to seriously believe that they haven't done likewise with their nuclear program?

Say it out loud and think about how stupid you sound.

But really this article is an eye opener.  Read it all but check this part out.

The result of their effort? The largest body of public knowledge about thousands of miles of tunnels dug by the Second Artillery Corps, a secretive branch of the Chinese military in charge of protecting and deploying its ballistic missiles and nuclear warheads.
The study is yet to be released, but already it has sparked a congressional hearing and been circulated among top officials in the Pentagon, including the Air Force vice chief of staff.
Most of the attention has focused on the 363-page study’s provocative conclusion — that China’s nuclear arsenal could be many times larger than the well-established estimates of arms-control experts.
“It’s not quite a bombshell, but those thoughts and estimates are being checked against what people think they know based on classified information,” said a Defense Department strategist who would discuss the study only on the condition of anonymity.
Its coming slowly.  But it is coming.

The realization that China is a clear and present danger.

  1. "The realization that China is a clear and present danger."


    The problem is you need to have someone in the White House who, 1. Cares. and 2. Isn't a naive narcissist. Russia and China are building multiple new strategic nuclear systems (Russia is building a new SSBN, SLBM, several types of ICBMs, and is starting development of an SS-18 replacement and new nuclear bomber) and what is Zero doing? He's actually dumb enough to think that if we got rid of our nuclear weapons everybody else would too. In fact he's zeroed work on maintaining our ability to design and build nuclear warheads, and just pushed off (again) development of an Ohio replacement.
