American military might can be marginalised

 Military might can be marginalized as history have shown us. The USA and NATO thinks that prolonging the war in Ukraine will diminish Russia's military capabilities when it comes to a direct confrontation. That is why the West is barking like rabid dogs with the military co-operation between Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. Russia has as many nukes as the USA and any outcome is still not a certainty. The military might of the USA in Vietnam and Afghanistan does nothing when the shit hits the fan.

The latter three, China, Iran and North Korea are not at war yet, and still have plenty of fire power to deter any form of aggression by the West. Moreover, China still calls the shots in terms of control of essential raw materials for making weapons, that can cripple the West. Dig deeper and you will find that not all is apparent on the surface regarding military strategy. What we see may not be what we are told as propaganda are created to be misleading.

Of course, the USA will not walk away without a fight. So does Hitler and Napoleon. But when it comes to a fight that cannot be won outright, walking away is not too far off as in Vietnam and Afghanistan. Then what?

China is de-risking from the West by not buying USA treasuries and de-investing in the West. De-risking is not something that the USA and the West can gloat about. It is a double-edged sword and works both ways. China is hoarding gold and silver instead with all the surpluses it generated in trade. China has all the other avenues to recycle its surpluses with the BRI, BRICS and Global South at its disposal.
