Out of nowhere Germany gobbled up vast lands in Africa. One of them was South West Africa. This country is known as Namibia today.
This is direct copy of the first line in Wikipedia of what the Germans did to the native population:
The Herero and Nama genocide was a campaign of racial extermination and collective punishment that the German Empire undertook in German South West Africa (now Namibia) against the Ovaherero and the Nama. It is considered the first genocide of the 20th century.[1][2][3] It took place between 1904 and 1908.
At issue is what is the structural psycho-philosophical basis by which one category of human being, Teutonic white Caucasian feels perfectly at ease to exterminate human beings of a different category.
We can only offer this. It is that their Orthodoxy confirms to them that they are superior. The other is not because it is not equivalently human, i.e. subhuman, as them. You may therefore dispose with them as you see fit.
This Teutonic white Caucasian prejudice was to find its full bloom in Nazi Germany under Hitler.
Put simply, if one race holds the position that it is superior, you must be sure you always hold onto your superior position and be sure the other remains in an inferior position for all time - if you feel they may live. However, if you think otherwise, then be rid of the lot of them.
So now today we have this same attitude reflected in this:

Steve Bannon. THE Donald and others high in the current US administration are of this disposition.
This is how it comes about that Steve Bannon is proposing to Australia that it is to field its men into battle to conquer the Chinese and if necessary the Indians, when the US decides to.
The problem is this:
Can 350,000,000 Americans take to the field
and thump 1.4 billion Chinks?
To accomplish this you must, in the end, conquer and hold the land.
It certainly was possible in those days of 55 Days in Peking with Charleston Heston and Ava Gardner. Do you think it is possible to reprise 55 Days today. Then, the West and Japan had China by its nuts.
And until this blab from Steve Bannon, I thought we were on the path of peace and a collaborative track to co-prosperity by co-agreements to ensure free trade and prosperity for all.
Winston Churchill once said, and we paraphrase:
When one starts a war,
he can never be sure how it will end!
Can you imagine Napoleon's confusion, disappointment, frustration and anger when he had to vacate Moscow and return post haste to Paris.
Can you imagine Hitler's consternation, confusion, disappointment, frustration and anger when General von Paulus against his expressed orders would not fall on his sword but instead surrender to Stalin.
Publius Quinctilius Varus, commander of 3 Roman legions and Master of Germania was marching through the Tuetoburg Forest to his winter quarters. Can you imagine his surprise when he had to fall on his sword in the olde traditional Roman way when it was clear to him that all 30,000+ men of his 3 Legions were wiped out and no trace of them was ever found until the mid 20th Century.
The Mahdi also known as the Chosen One was to rise triumphantly out of the Sudan. Along the way the English General Gordon of China fame was killed in Khartoum. Now he faced General Kitchener at the Battle of Omdurman. This was the last true Cavalry Charge. And Winston Churchill was in that Charge. To the Mahdi's surprise, it ended very poorly for him.
I do not know who will be the C-in-C of the US forces that will take to the field in vast plains of Xinjiang vs the Chinese Army. When it happens can you really know who is going to win.
I have not included the EU, Britain, Australia, New Zealand, or Canada in this US war because following WW II, these nations who had suffered greatly, will not feel the call of the higher wisdom to contribute in the aim to thump the Chinks. For them it is WAR all over again; and they have had enough.
