No worries, Rap. We always have war. The lads have been preparing for it in earnest for about 15 years, spending money on hardening the military resources at an extreme rate. Just took BILLIONS away from the economy to give it some extra oomph... bailout Wall Street? bail out the auto manufacturers? Bail out bullshit. Fill the war coffers.

The "wars" in Iraq and Afghanistan and Libya and Syria? Training exercises.

Now, will India side with China? Or will they hedge their bets and side (stay) with the proven track runner? That's the BIG question. Here's the answer. They will side with the Brits. The Chinese don't play cricket.

Then again, if... oh, what the hell... there are so many possibilities. No matter what, it's gonna be a ride. Buckle up.

I may consider moving to Idaho. NObody would attack Idaho.
