US won’t rule out military action if China establishes base in Solomon Islands

[DF41]

Not just at South China Sea and within 2nd Island Chain.

Anywhere USA and Australia want to tango, tango will be done!

Forget about Solomon Islands first return American Samoa to Samoa, hypocrites

I'm all for a strong Chinese military, but realistically they aren't at the stage where they can face down the USN far from home and win right now. In 2035? Maybe. 2049? Highly likely. Today? Very unlikely. PLAN still needs more carriers, 055 and 052D, type 095 and 096 subs, and the J-35 still needs to be put into production. Then we still need time to train up all the sailors and pilots to full operational status which takes a few years extra.

I doubt this security deal is a mutual defense pact like China has with North Korea, it is likely more along the lines of setting a legal framework to send PAP for COIN to assist the Solomons govt against colour revolutions, but a straight up invasion by the USA would be beyond China's ability to stop. Instead, China can use any military intervention in the Solomons to justify action on Taiwan which they can succeed at.

While China is seeing significant growth in military technology it is far behind US capability. The Chinese navy has significantly less experience than the USN and much smaller numerical strength. China’s navy does not have the USN capability to support global operations. China’s weapons are a threat to the USN close to China.

And Hawaii to the Hawaiians that USA robbed from

And Guam and the Marianna islands to the Chamorros that USA stole from.

And return Diago Garcia and Chagos islands to Mauritus that UK and USA stole from, and ordered by ICJ to return.

On 23 June 2017, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) voted in favour of referring the territorial dispute between Mauritius and the UK to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in order to clarify the legal status of the Chagos Islands archipelago in the Indian Ocean. The motion was approved by a majority vote with 94 voting for and 15 against.[38][39]

In February 2019, the International Court of Justice in The Hague ruled that the United Kingdom must transfer the islands to Mauritius as they were not legally separated from the latter in 1965. The UK Foreign Office said the ruling is not legally binding.[40] In May 2019, the United Nations General Assembly affirmed the decision of the International Court of Justice and demanded that the United Kingdom withdraw its colonial administration from the Islands and cooperate with Mauritius to facilitate the resettlement of Mauritian nationals in the archipelago.

And USA to honor all the treaties made with America original inhabitants.

If China is not establishing a military base there, who is going to protect the Solomon Islands and other countries in the Pacific from the enemy?

USA needs to consider this before, unless he feels he is actually the "enemy", aka the evil, the bad guy.
