My wife is spending a lot of time following all the latest conspiracy theories. She has me sit down to watch some special segments. As I was sitting watching something about 45,000 indictments being pursued by pro-Trump people, the guru on the screen went on to another subject. Evidently the Chinese are going to send troops to Syria to fight against the Americans.
I am afraid that one got me scratching my head.
I wonder if this is another case of geographic ignorance. Syria is nowhere near China, except being on the same continent. A Chinese military force would need to cross a boatload of countries if it came by land or air. I am not sure that India would sit and act like it was an everyday event. I don’t think Russia would buy it. If it came by sea it would need to either go through the Suez Canal or all the way around Africa. While the South China Sea might be sfe grounds for in invasion force I have a hard time believing it could make it all the way with no “accidents”. These factors do not bode well for a Chinese invasion force.
I could be totally wrong but it is things like this that make me wonder about all these people with geopolitical genius. It also didn’t help that he didn’t know how to pronounce coup d‛etat.
I am expecting enough trouble in the future without getting excited about this kind of stuff.

I believe there is probably far more going on than we even suspect. However, that doesn't mean that what will happen is what we're expecting. - LOL
