You don't remember the conflict with Russia over Syria in Trumps first days in office? I guess the ministry is doing their job.
Not much of a conflict. It was Russia taking care of business and Trump mostly staying out of the way while the media screeched for him to get involved. At one point he did (bombing an evacuated airbase over the BS "gas attack") but nothing much came of it.
Russian foreign ministers were talking about the possibility of nuclear war over Trumps potential airstrikes in Syria after the chlorine gas false flag.
Russia deployed its fleet as a deterrent. Russia threatened an armed response if missiles were launched against the Asad government. Things were escalating immensely in an incredibly short amount of time. Trump then ordered and attack on an empty Syrian airfield with tomahawk missiles and the whole thing was swept under the rug.
Right, so there was a lot of talk, a meaningless strike that didn't kill anyone, then the storm in a teacup ended.
Your not a student of history are you?
Just because you win a round of russian roulette doesn't mean you start doubting if the bullet is real. FFS we are the only country in the world that has used nuclear weapons on humans. Nuclear war is only a function of time. Eventually it will happen. International conflicts, even if they have petty origins, can turn real in a moments notice. Have you never had a petty dissagreement escalate into a fight? We are humans, look around.
The press were doing their level best to amp up the fear, in terms of the actual substance of the "conflict" there wasn't really much there.
Fine. What do you want to do about China? What would you do if you were in charge?
