An ex-Brit gives his views-(without fear
or favor)---of the American Scene
Next
to the last words:
I
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.
Remember 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.
