Paul disingenuously asks "Tell me do you want to go to war with China for this?"

In my very first post on this thread I wrote "But no one wants to wage war on the CCP to save the Uighur. But that doesn't mean there's nothing that can be done."

What is it with you characters? The only choice is total war or total subservience? The thread calls for economic sanctions in support of those suffering genocide. But you can't bring yourself to support that because....CCP.

I believe there will eventually be a war between China and the US aided by its north Asian allies. Whether we join in is unknowable at this time. But the war won't be over the genocide of Uighurs and Tibetans just as the war against Nazism wasn't about the Holocaust. It'll be about Chinese adventurism bought on by CCP desperation as their economic model unravels.

Look seriously,
If you want to go fight China, then go pop on your jumpsuit,
I'm sure we can find you a rifle and a few grenades and a box of rations and we'll parachute you in to Xinjiang.
We can even let Xi know your coming.
I wish you good luck in your endeavors.

You want to fight, go fight.
- But keep the rest of us out of it will you, if you don't mind.

As an Australian, I'm concerned about Australian interests.
That means not going to war with our largest trading partner.
- Because the US is going down the toilet, militarily and economically
and it likes to roam the planet like an unstable drunk aiming a shotgun at everyone.

I say " no one wants to wage war on the CCP to save the Uighur"

AC responds..."If you want to go fight China..."

Logic takes a holiday.

"The thread calls for economic sanctions in support of those suffering genocide. But you can't bring yourself to support that because....CCP."

I don't support economic sanctions (or overthrows).

mhaze

The question was from AC; "Tell me do you want to go to war with China for this?" I was not directing anything at YOU! I was not being disingenuous. If we only needed to raise a Dads Army of dimwits, then a Platoon of the like minded from OLO wouldn't be a problem, unfortunately war with China might involve somewhat more than a Dads Army Platoon.

Okay mhaze, what punitive action should Australia take against the Chinese? Please explain your economic sanctions, no more iron ore and coal for that nasty enemy. No more filling our shelves with nasty Chinese manufactured goods. The previous fools in Canberra tried to shirt front the Chinese, on American orders, and look where that got us. My suggestion is we send you and a couple of other old conservatives from OLO, and have you give that horrible Xi a right old bollocking, that'll sort em' out!

" Please explain your economic sanctions"

Did you read the heading to the thread or the initial posts?
