Bill Sykes' Newsletter from America.
(November 2004)

An ex-Brit gives his views-(without fear or favor)---of the American Scene

Next to the last words:
China TextI don’t know how many of you are taking my Far East predictions, (with respect to China and North Korea), seriously, but my latest analysis suggests that with the American troops being so busily engaged in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the number of so called Allied coalition troops being so inadequate for the task, with both Bush and Kerry, (or whom-so-ever becomes President), violently denying that there is any intention on their part to reinstate the draft of American civilians, both China and Korea must at this time recognise that the United States military is now so far over stretched by the lack of sufficient troops, that they do not have the capability to intervene in any other world location, especially the Far East.
So perhaps now is the time that China and Korea may decide to flex their muscles. I have no doubt that mainland China will eventually invade Taiwan, and North Korea’s million-man army will eventually invade South Korea. This is not the lone man on the street holding up a placard saying the end of the world is nigh scenario, this is a calculated possibility.

Taiwan TextRemember when the American defence of South Vietnam was waning and America said that the South Vietnamese troops were now in a position militarily to defend themselves against any onslaught from North Vietnam and America pulled out its military forces, it took only a matter of weeks before North Vietnamese troops crossed the DMZ and rapidly advanced south down the Mekong Delta without any serious resistance from the South Vietnamese army and by April/May of 1975 the North Vietnamese had captured the capital city of Saigon.
So ended the Vietnamese war and North and South Vietnam were unified.
Will North Korea follow a similar plan of unification? You can bet you life that it’s only a matter of time before they do.
