Chinese peasants geting uppity

Of course, it's a very delicate situation, two nuclear capable powers fighting a war with each other, have to keep a eye on them.

So who do you guys think the United states would back

China or Russia and Why?

Russia is a stronger ally (although both are pretty shitty allies) and less of a threat to the US Dominance.

We would probably side with Russia and just blockade the Chinese coast, destroying the Chinese economy in the process.

Personally I think at first we would appear neutral or trying to squeeze out the last bit of money out of China before we assisted Russia.

Though alot of people are arguing for tensions between Russia and America to flare up one last time.

We would join Russia. There is no way we would back China in a war that would make them stronger.

That's a pretty delicate situation. I don't see us picking a side.

I think we would try everything to hamper China without actually going to war.

Russia probobaly if we had to fight, although i think we would try remane nuetral.

"War" isn't exactly what I would call this situation. More like a border conflict cut short by an imposed cease-fire from the UN. The most we might do in terms of "picking sides" is putting a greater emphasis on targeting SideX's units should direct action, like a No Fly Zone, be taken.

Hey let me go and try to find the Thesis paper on the Russian/Chinese war.

Edit: Well I did not find exactly what i was looking for I did find these very interesting
