China & Russia have been awfully quiet

They're no doubt in awe of our military strength, next-gen tech and the precision of which we've executed so far. Their relative silence makes me wonder what they're thinking.
They already knew they'd get brutalized in a conflict with the US. But if either of these regimes were in a weakened, desperate state - do you think they'd do something really dumb and try to harm the US in Hail Mary fashion?

What could they even do at this point?
Posted on 3/5/26 at 9:01 am to Naked Bootleg
I think the opposite. They have been patiently waiting for an opening. They will wait as long as they feel they have to till it’s perfect timing. North Korea is the one that scares me. He’s crazy enough to jump in the deep end with out a plan.

Can't answer. Don't know what the "hail mary" plan is.
Posted on 3/5/26 at 9:02 am to Naked Bootleg
They will sit this one out.

China and Russia when they see us walk through their advanced air defenses they sold to Venezuela and Iran

A massive barrage of nukes. Theoretically speaking.

Putin’s silence has been deafening imo. I think about this a lot.

So suicide.
For evil to win all good needs to do is nothing.

They don’t want this war either. Russia is fighting in Ukraine and China wants to build their manufacturing.

Russia bit off more than they could chew in Ukraine. They are bogged down.
China is sitting on the sidelines waiting to pick up the pieces wherever they can. They are the ones to watch.

Sure, but I'm thinking more like mutually assured destruction. Again - just saying *what if* either of those countries were in a really bad spot (which neither are in at the moment) and felt like taking that massive chance could be worth it

I guess China could try to take Taiwan while we are preoccupied in the Middle East?

But its not a massive chance for anything but a Fallout world. It's just suicide so no, I don't see global desolation as a plan.

When is the last time China was in a war? They use their economic powers not their military. They are more than happy to watch us spend another trillion dollars on and endless war and buy are bonds when we sell them at super high interest rates

we take out two of their top 3 oil suppliers and they are more than happy about that?

Russia and China are in the "wait and see" mode. If the Persian people do not rise up and get control of their nation and put an end to the Islamic Regime you will see Russia and China get involved through the backdoor of war, resupplying the Islamic Regime with military weapons and hardware.

I believe Trump has discussed with them and agreed to a Multipolar world. China uses rare earth manufacturing as leverage and now we will use oil. Will make for much better talks with China later this year.

Exactly. This is why so quite. Watching and planning contingencies.
But I'm sure both countries are saying "shite" right about now.
