As it's always been. Funny thing, the State Department and related agencies hire folks that studied these issues and other countries/cultures. Some are better than others. When it comes to reading, I don't feel I have problems with discernment. Thanks for the warning. You might want to apply same to some of your sources.

What are we to make of the CFR as it relates to the discussion re: US and China potential hostilities?

You seem to present things without context as the definitive word and we're silly for not recognizing the enormity of the information.

I'm just presenting information.
Not saying it's "definitive" or all there is to know.
Never called anyone silly.
But it's not smart for me or you to ignore info just because you don't like the way... you think ... it's presented.

I'm not really going to argue the points anymore at DP, I'm just post ing info for folks to consider... or not.
There's info available out there to confirm or deny or give different takes. I'm just posting info thats not considered in the original article posted here.
How pertinent you think it is or isn't is up to u & others.
I'm not a China expert, but to me the broader history & relationships bear some consideration. Among many other factors I'm sure others are more familiar with than I am.

Concerning context of the earlier post.
The topic is war with China from a CFR article. I posted other Info about the CFR and its historical relationship and POV of China.

I'm guessing that nobody cares. I don't care in the least unless the information is related to current events and how you think it adds to the conversation. I care not a whit what Hillary said a decade ago.

Some of us do care about history and how it seems to be repeating itself.

Well .. for starters a new variant of a pandemic is trying to get leverage right before an election.

But this topic should probably be in another thread.
