A study from the Center for Strategic and International Studies has said that the United States is not ready to do a war against China over Taiwan.

The US doesn’t have enough stockpiles of munitions or the industrial capacity to replenish them for a major military confrontation with China, a US think tank has warned, citing a series of war games it conducted.
The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) has urged the stockpiling of ammo and of materials for producing them, and the offering to producers of better terms so that they have incentive to invest in new facilities.
The CSIS, a nonprofit that lists among its donors major defense contractors, including Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and General Dynamics, criticized the state of the US defense industry as inadequate for “today’s competitive environment.”
The production base cannot support a protracted, high-intensity conflict, the report released on Monday stated. The country ran low on certain weapons in the simulation, including Javelin and Stinger missiles, 155 mm howitzers and counter-artillery radars, as these had been sent to Ukraine.
I’ve said for awhile that it is foolish to do a war with China over Taiwan and this study just reinforces my position. The best path forward for the United States would be to give up Taiwan through a negotiated settlement that is mutually beneficial to both parties.
This is probably not going to happen though. The ZOG people in Washington DC seem hellbent on doing war with both Russia and China simultaneously even though they don’t have the capabilities to do either. They seem to be incapable of listening to any sort of sound reason or logic on these matters.
