If War Breaks Out With China, The U.S. Won’t Have Enough Weapons Because They’re All In Israel and Ukraine

If War Breaks Out With China, The U.S. Won’t Have Enough Weapons Because They’re All In Israel and Ukraine

This article was originally published by Ethan Huff at Natural News. 

U.S. Navy Adm. Samuel Paparo, who heads up the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM), is warning that a potential war with China could leave the United States military at risk due to the fact that Patriot surface-to-air interceptors and other key munitions are being hauled off to Ukraine and Israel.

At a recent speaking engagement in front of the Brookings Institute think tank in Washington, D.C., Paparo discussed what he sees as an urgent need to replenish America’s inventory of weapons of war in preparation for yet another conflict, this one between China and Taiwan.

Because the U.S. establishment is a colonial operation that aims to police and control the entire world, the U.S. military needs massive stockpiles of the most powerful weapons in existence. This allows the powers that be (TPTB) to position themselves within every major conflict, using U.S. taxpayer dollars to achieve their various agendas.

When asked point-blank during the event if the ongoing wars in Ukraine and the Middle East are eating away at U.S. military preparedness, he had this to say:

“Up to this year, where most of the employment of weapons were really artillery pieces and short-range weapons, I had said not at all. But now, with some of the Patriots that have been employed, some of the air-to-air missiles that have been employed, it is now eating into [our] stocks … and to say otherwise would be dishonest.”

(Related: One of the ways that Western leaders are hoping to win the global conflicts they are stoking is by drafting women to fight on the front lines – equality, right?)

Many of America’s most powerful weapons were already used against Russia, Iran

Since the start of the conflict in Eastern Europe, the U.S. has sent multiple Patriot surface-to-air missile systems and interceptors to Volodymyr Zelensky to use against Vladimir Putin. Several Patriots were also used back in April to bomb Iran on behalf of Israel.

Since the U.S. military is the executioner force of the global elite, its services are required all over the place on multiple fronts. This is necessary to keep the assets, luxury, and lifestyle of the world’s billionaires secure at all times, all else be damned.

If all of that is not enough, the U.S. military is also involved in protecting “friendly” warships and commercial vessels as they pass through the Red Sea – “friendly” meaning friendly to Israel, not necessarily to the American people and their interests.

The U.S. has sent SM-2, SM-3, and SM-6 ship-launched surface-to-air interceptors to the Middle East for this purpose, as well as AIM-9X and AIM-120 air-to-air missiles.

As far as Ukraine, the U.S. military has sent ground-based National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile Systems (NASAMS) to Zelensky, these having the capacity to fire AIM-9Xs and AIM-120s.

The U.S. has also shipped off Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) to Ukraine, which just received the green light from the Biden regime to start firing into Russia in violation of Vladimir Putin’s “red line.”

In the past, a media report explains, Army officials have explicitly referred to incoming stocks of new Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) short-range ballistic missiles as “helping free up ATACMS for Ukraine.”

“If there are X [munitions in the] inventory of the United States of America, which is fungible across all theaters, that can be applied equally across any contingency, … none are reserved for any particular theater,” Paparo explained, adding that expending these weapons elsewhere “inherently … imposes costs on the readiness of America to respond in the Indo-Pacific region.”

“The Indo-Pacific region … is the most stressing theater for the quantity and quality of munitions, because the PRC [People’s Republic of China] is the most capable potential adversary in the world,” he added.
