    "Trump claims Iran has milliles that could reach mainland USA but intelligence said that it would take until 2035 to develop it." (The
    left thinks we should wait until 2035 to do anything about it.)

    Back when I was in high school, we had a class called International Relations. Basically we got to pretend
    we were the U.N. with power.

    In most classes, Iraq, India and Russia often teamed up to basically erase Iran off the map.

    Fun fact: Most of Iran's oil export went to China.

    First Venesuela and now Iran. I wonder how China will run their economy when they have to buy their oil at market prices (they were getting hefty discounts from both Venesuela and Iran).

    They don't typically react with violence against us, so hopefully it stays that way. But OTOH they really, really hate when people mess with their income.

    I think we got the COVID situation because of Trump saber rattling the
    trade policy with China.

    China decided to do biological war on the United States.

    That's plausible but how can we blame China while NSAID had been intentionally mutating viruses all along? And while Walmart was installing curbside pick-up sections just months in advance?

    But of course China has concerns about overpopulation and a viral genocide is far more effective than a 1 child policy.
