@jekavanagh I agree if 🇺🇸 withdraws its defence guarantee, 🇯🇵 has the capability to provide for its own defence. However, it can only do so by acquiring a nuclear weapon. If it tries to do that, 🇨🇳 is likely to use force to prevent it. The resulting war would be contrary to 🇺🇸 i 28.4K views · 106 likes · 31 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →

Then there is the question of Chinese coercion or interdiction. Physical interdiction by China of U.S. access to markets in Asia would be difficult or impossible. There are simply too many alternative trade routes and the distances too vast. China could block off the South China 7.4K views · 35 likes · 5 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

In any case, the expansive commitments the United States has made in the past are simply not sustainable anymore and must be revisited. The war in the Middle East has shown the limits of U.S. military power and the vulnerabilities and shortcomings of the U.S. way of war. U.S. 11K views · 57 likes · 15 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →

So, I wrote a report, and it got a lot of feedback. I hoped the report would open a wider debate on posture and strategy in Asia. It did that, so in that spirit, I will respond to some of the common criticisms.
