Will China go to war with Japan?

[niothor]

You now chinas military size is over 4,500,000

4500000 Chinese vs 500 000 Japanese
First with chinese weapons , the second with western modern armament.

My bet is on Japan.
A tank can kill 1 million people with sticks but 1 million people with armed with rocks can't destroy a tank.

The human form is not designed for fighting.
That's why we have tanks with tracks , planes with turbines not flapping wings and subs with no tails.
So , no giant robots fighting!

What is this nonsense? Everyone knows that humanoid giant robots are the ultimate fighting machines!* 

(* may require watching one or more of the following: Gundam, Macross, Code Geas, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Furi Kuri, etc.)

I never managed to watch 1 episode of those.
But from all the references I saw in Gintama , I haven't missed anything

Also , was FLCL about robots? I thought it was about nonsense.

FLCL made no sense, it's about some alien girl with a magic guitar and after he hit the main character he could turn into a robot to fight bad guys when he feels threatened or something

and the two main characters have a romantic relationship even though she's 20 years old and the kid is like 10

but yeah Gintama is HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!

Also no China will not declare war on Japan.

If there is a war anytime soon, we are all FCKED.

Yes, FLCL was a lot about nonsense, but nonsense involving giant robots... well, one or two of them were giant robots, the rest were about human sized.

You now chinas military size is over 4,500,000

PLA Ground Force - 1,700,000 (+ 800,000 reserves)

People's Liberation Army Navy - 290,000

People's Liberation Army Air Force - 330,000

The numbers are there for sure. But the vast majority of the PLA soldiers are very poorly trained as well as inadequately equipped with modern weapons. And the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force is far better in quality when compared to the People's Liberation Army Navy.

Or one could just watch Terminator and see the awesome power of the humanoid robot.

i dont think so.  A war with China would be great for the US economy and terrible for China. We owe China so much we could charge them for every missile and every loss. This is a no lose for the US. But war sucks and China should simply buy the Japanese interest in the islands in lieu of war.Either that or agree to share the oil reserves which is what this is really all about.

No. It will be bad for the US economy. Because the US is having the moral obligation to support Japan, there is no chance that the Americans are going to play neutral here. They will also be dragged in to the war, either willingly or unwillingly.

And the war in Iraq alone cost the American tax payers some $ 1 trillion. But it will pale in comparison to the expenses arising from a future war with China.

[DubFX]

Lol, believing these stupid multimedia?

[superresistant]

I think China should hodl on.

A tank can kill 1 million people with sticks but 1 million people with armed with rocks can't destroy a tank.

Of course one million people can destroy a tank.   A tank can't carry one million rounds of ammo.

[dopey]

A war would only be profitable if there is a giant amount of oil under the sea.

Weapons manufacturers would still make a "killing" no pun intended.

According to my knowledge of tanks from movies, if you throw a grenade in the "gun shaft," the entire tank will explode, with the shrapnel killing all enemies in the engagement. Soon after, a white guy with recent battle wounds and a bitchin' name like Max Hardstaff sticks a US flag atop the tank's remains as patriotic music plays. All of the now-liberated dirty brown folk come out of their rubble-homes and cheer for the Americans while a bald eagle flies overhead.

Also - if enough Tibetan monks light themselves on fire, it seems to give members of Chinese resistance groups supernatural brain powers. They can stand in front of tanks and put up some kind of forcefield which stops them. I don't think it works if they're the aggressors, but I don't know.

Im pretty sure china will kick our asses, they know kung fu, and they have the power to force people in the army, such as civilians.

Hollywood is the best weapon the US has got. No other weapon can brainwash billions of people around the globe. Have doubts? Go and watch In the Land of Blood and Honey

You should watch less movies. The locked gun breechblock withstands the gunshot itself and can't cope with a hand grenade, lol. Though you can indeed damage the gun barrel...

Anyway there is only a very low chance that tanks will be used during a hypothetical China vs Japan war. Most of it will be fought in the ocean.

[U1TRA_L0RD]

Well now theyre definately enemies, if you look at the news sources, the Japanese prime minister is not welcome to enter china anymore. :/
