[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 4092268, member: 45773"] Whut? That can't possibly happen... I read the Politico article (OK...I read some of it) and I really take those things with a grain of salt. We ran all sorts of war games during the cold war and based national strategy off of them portraying the Russians as all but invincible. We did the same thing before invading Iraq in the early 90s. Turns out all the doom and gloom forecasters were wrong. I suspect there's a little of that going on today as well. This time China is the boogeyman. In terms of what you should be doing for prepping? I have no idea. I like to be as self-sufficient as possible. If there's a massive societal upheaval due to asymmetric warfare it's gonna be tough to predict how to prepare. I just try to be prepared in general: I don't stockpile anything in fear of anything in particular, I do it just to be ready, as much as possible, for a variety of events. I'm not sure you really can do anything. [/QUOTE]
