If there is attack then response has to be asymmetric and very successful in certain areas. Russia and China should not sit mute in that event or it will be a catastrophe for them in less than 1000 days down the road.

Reverse engineering from Russia and stealing from US are the two sources of ideas to the brilliant minds of the commies.

you still living in the world where US industries are producing goods based on German technology of WWII. China not stealing US technology? Any news inventions or new generation products fielded by China lately? All I see are cheap knock offs and that's all.

That's true, US can nuke any small country and start a war with nukes and the world will mostly remain mute. However, remaining mute and actionless also WILL have its consequences down the road. That is why SCO based military alliance is very much needed. World only respects the strong and brave.
Unlike the cold war, the economic system or way of life not the issue. Unlike Warsaw Pact, the governments will not be on a mission to make the whole world a godless communist dwelling and curb all sorts of basic freedoms of human beings. The main issue is to put a stop to the aggressive belligerence of the US-NATO over the small countries that they do not like. Unless they see mighty costs involved in their war games over a small country, they will keep on doing it like psychopaths.

While Russians are behind the west in technological terms, they are not so much behind that they would not know that a super advanced ABM has already been deployed that would cancel out their offensive capability in terms of nuclear missiles. If that was the case, Russians would have gone crazy out of fear and started throwing all sorts of efforts to cancel this system out.
Btw, do not mention the FEL as a sole property of the west. You have been spanked and straightened on it already.

The U.S. knows Iran is on the verge of regime change within 12 to 18 months and 90% of the Iranian population is pro west.

Do you seriously believe stuff like that or do you take the listeners to be idiots incapable of seeing through it?

Russia and China are both goals for the US in a strategic standpoint.
Russia's threats are just what was being looked for. Iran can be crushed immediately, that's not a problem unfortunately. A war with Russia is ultimately what is being looked for. We have the resources, funding, training, and experience to take them out. Russia needs to be careful what it does because it's falling into the trap.
Control freaks :shk:
How can Iran be crushed "immediately"? If they're so easy, why did Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, etc. last so long?
MADness.
