Quoted:
The Chinese plan also includes a knockout punch to Japan, sinking the U.S. Pacific Fleet, and knocking out our nuke sites. All their military tech efforts are focused on that.

The Russians are just eastern European bullies. The Chinese are working on Pearl Harbor II and putting their soldiers in my backyard.
 

Quoted:
China is decades away from becoming anything significant even in SE Asia, much less a world power.  The mountain worth of internal problems that are plaguing them are too massive for them to ignore and just keep pushing and pushing and pushing. There are a ton of dragons China has to slay before they can even think about dumping paratroopers off in the Donner Pass.

I understand the fact they can be dangerous, but their instability limits their opportunity/ability to act out.

I juat can't stand the abject fear people have for the PRC.

1) Who had anything to gain by printing and spreading those letters?
As its already been stated this maybe nothing more than classic Russian anti-Semitism popping up. It may also be PSYOP..

2) When was the USSR (since the 60s/70s) persecuting the Jewish and making them "register"?
Would you consider the plight of the refusniks persecution?

I'm listening.   Amuse me.

For Stalin, whose deeds easily matched those of Hitler and whose deceits had been evident throughout his life, the Doctors' Plot and intended show trial were meant to cleanse the Soviet Union of “foreign,” “cosmopolitan,” and “Zionist” (read Jewish) elements. In fact, it was the only one of Stalin's show trials that did not come off—only because he died just before the spectacle was to begin.
...
The show trial was meant to initiate a carefully constructed plan in which almost all of the Soviet Union's two million Jews, nearly all of whom were survivors of the Holocaust, were to be transported to the Gulag—in cattle cars.
...
Stalin had long manifested his hatred not only of Jews but, by extension, of Jewish nationalism (Zionism). Though using somewhat derivative terminology, his slander of both was expressed in the same spirit as the omnipresent anti-Semitism of the Tsarist period in which Stalin grew up. At that time the notorious Tsarist police forgery The Protocols of the Elders of Zion was widely circulated in Russia and beyond
...
But Stalin's special hatred was reserved for Jewish doctors. Although in the last decades of Tsarist rule Jews were restricted from owning land and excluded from most other professions, they had indeed entered medicine in numbers far out of proportion to their small percentage in the overall population.6 So when Stalin decided to resolve the Soviet Union's “Jewish problem,” it made perfect sense to open the campaign with a show trial against a group of (mainly Jewish) doctors who were often branded “Zionists” or agents of the “Joint” (an international Jewish charitable organisation).
...
A propaganda offensive accompanied the plans to deport—“for their own good”—the Jewish population. One million copies of a pamphlet were prepared for distribution—its title: “Why Jews Must Be Resettled from the Industrial Regions of the Country.” The deportation was purportedly “in response” to a carefully orchestrated letter prepared for Pravda and signed by many terrified Soviet Jewish leaders, imploring “The Father of all the Peoples” to deport the Jews for their own protection. It appealed to “the government of the USSR, and to Comrade Stalin personally, to save the Jewish population from possible violence in the wake of the revelations about the doctor-poisoners . . . of Jewish origin . . . We, as leading figures among loyal Soviet Jewry, totally reject American and Zionist propaganda claiming that there is anti-Semitism in the Soviet Union.”

So, "Mr. Expert".  Explain it.

1) Who had anything to gain by printing and spreading those letters?

2) When was the USSR (since the 60s/70s) persecuting the Jewish and making them "register"?

It appear subtleness does not work with you.

So, are you are aware of George Orwell and his book 1984 and how the State needs an "enemy" even if completely fabricated in order to divert its subjects'  attention to other issues?    Interestingly the point of contention between several of us.

USSR was the enemy and it crumbled.

Terrorism, 9/11 and Al Qaeda presented the opportunity for the "replacement" enemy.

Now, since its not the interest of the turd and his administration to keep chasing his brethren he needs someone else.

Guess who is the next in line?  The Chinese do not seem willing to "cooperate" as much as Putin does.

Quoted:



Stalin?  Really?   Jewish and how many others he slaughtered?  

Remember I mentioned post the 60/70s.   After Stalin.

That sick pervert would kill his own mother.

Quoted:

And yet, you are the one ignoring any evidence against what you preach and accusing whoever presents them to be "parroting the commies' propaganda".  Kind of ironic, isn't it?

When the USSR "ended" did all the people responsible for the bad policies vanish?
