    "When asked by a reporter about the ability of the US to "blow apart"
    one of China's controversial man-made islands, Lt. Gen. Kenneth
    McKenzie, director of the Joint Staff, told reporters, "I would just
    tell you that the United States military has had a lot of experience
    in the Western Pacific taking down small islands."

    Lol. I can imagine the warlords in Peking and their dictator spewing
    over this. The US lost a lot of troops taking Guadalcanal and all the
    other islands and they fucking well know how to do it (1600 dead
    marines alone just in Guadalcanal, 24,000 dead Japs).

    I like this guy. I like his stance. Looks like the US will stand
    against China, which is our major trading partner and our major
    threat. I have no doubt that if push comes to shove and a state of
    war comes into existence between the US and China, we will be there
    keeping the US' back, as usual.

    Fuck the money.
