USA: JUST WHAT WE NEED, ANOTHER WAR IN THE PACIFIC – My Comments

I don't think this is a big threat in the Pacific. But it shows that Cold War 2 is well and truly on. In Europe the Russians are flying aircraft into the West's air space already. All those soft-hostile actions of the Cold War are back.

I don't trust the Russians. But I am open to the idea of us in Africa aligning with them if we have no sponsors when we end up in a race war. Jan]

The U.S. Army plans to deploy two specialized task forces to the Pacific capable of conducting information, electronic, cyber and missile operations against Beijing, a Pentagon official said on Friday.

The task forces were slated to deploy over the next two years, U.S. Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy said at an event brook.gs/39VM3fS in Washington.

“The Army is reinvigorating our presence and disposition in the Pacific,” McCarty said, because “China will emerge as America’s strategic threat.”

The units, called Multi-Domain Task Forces, would help neutralize some capabilities China and Russia already possess. The units would potentially be equipped with long range precision weapons, hypersonic missiles, precision strike missiles, electronic warfare and cyber capabilities, McCarthy said, without citing any locations.
