  That’s not really how war works.

Then you proceed to write that China can't sink US carriers that are there to destroy Chinese ships and kill Chinese people. Next, you say that the US bombing China would not cause ICBM nuclear warheads on US cities.

So how does war work? Only one side gets to fight?

It’s revealing that you can’t differentiate between hitting military assets actively engaged in a conflict, and hitting civilian population centers on the other side of the world.

Yep. The side that sits at the keyboard of a basement computer shooting at zombies.

Here is my suggestion to people who want the US to play part in Taiwan/China affair: they should take their broomsticks and volunteer. And that includes the war in Ukraine, too.

Some people here thinks the US is fighting Vietnam or Afghanistan where the US can hit them but they can't hit back.

I served in the navy, actually, which I was proud to do.
