     China is preparing for war, the above articles say, making use of AI and intelligent unmanned vehicles such as tanks, which will probably be better suited to the toxic chemically and nuclear polluted battlefield just around the corner.

“China and Russia could soon match the military might of the US and her allies - and the decline of western supremacy could lead to all-out war. Those are the conclusions of a report by the International Institute of Strategic Studies (IISS), which says that although war between the great powers is not inevitable, Washington, Moscow and Beijing are now preparing for the possibility. The IISS’s annual Military Balance 2018 report sets out at length how China’s leadership has stepped up its military programme in recent years, with huge spending on new technology that could give it an advantage on land, sea and air. The opening of China’s first overseas military base in Djibouti will enable it to carry out missions over vast distances, and has been viewed as a major statement of intent.”

     The writing of war is on the wall, clear for all to see. The question is just, when. See how long political correctness lasts in a post-apocalyptic  world.
