The US Build-Up for War with China
* Visit by US Secretary of State attempts to portray the US as "reasonable" versus a "belligerent" Chinese "dictatorship;"
* Secretary Blinken recited the US "One China" policy, omitting the many ways the US has and still is blatantly violating it and provoking China;
* US strategy follows similar pattern of the US "reset" with Russia or the US-Iran "nuclear deal," where the US sought to appear to have exhausted diplomatic options before moving on "reluctantly" to economic sanctions and war;
* Such a strategy is necessary for consensus building among US allies who would otherwise be hesitant to join the US in both economic sanctions and eventual military intervention versus China;
* US policymakers are already busy planning sanctions against China, which includes an already ongoing public relations campaign to sell Russia-style sanctions against China, as well as preparations for military operations to follow the sanctions;
* The US has a long-standing strategy to encircle and contain China spanning decades, indifferent to presidential administrations;
