#1 Return of NORTH-KOREA-VS-USS-GEORGE-WASHINGTON.

OTOH, the DPRK is perfect patsy for China as per China-ordered, DPRK-carried-out/executed milaction = Conventional, Nuclear [Tacnuke only?], or Mixed? "First Strike" agz US Allies in NE Asia include northern Philippines.

Preemptive strike???

I remain steadfast to the opinion that China will prefer to militarily wage a LIMITED CONVENTIONAL WAR, or at worst a LIMITED [Tactical]]NUCLEAR WAR in East Asia, NOT "ALL-OUT" OR "MAD" WAR IN ECS + SCS; + that both China + US-Allies will want Mama Russia to sit out any mil conflict in neutral.

Lest we fergit, CHINA HAS TIMES STATED ON THE MSM-NET THAT IT SEES ITSELF AS THE EQUAL OF THE US IN ASIA-PACIFIC OR AS A GREAT/WORLD POWER.

China sees the USDOD everywhere just off its coasts - it does NOT see PLA anywhere just off US coasts.

Whatever its initial warfighting deficiencies are agz the US-Allies, CHINA WILL NOT STOP UNTIL IT ACHIEVES ITS SELF-PERCEIVED "MANIFEST DESTINY" GOALS IN "FIRST ISLAND CHAIN" + AMAP BEYOND.

#2 The George Washington in contested waters without an active carrier group defense. I'm thinking USS Cole, The Cheonan and NK mini-subs.

#3 If there's a CVN there's a battle group surrounding it. Bad writing I think.
