Debate: Can any country defeat China if they went to war against them?
Side: The US could

The freaking chinese would have no air support our airforce by far the most technologically advanced and the biggest in the world would make the chinese look like fish in a barell. That is if we decide we must win and screw all the U.N.'s rules. Also the Chinese have terrible troops. In the Korean war a combined total of 4,000 british and american troops plus artillery support killed 200,000 chinese in a single battle. We only lost about half our forces.

This doesn't even seem like a real issue. The easiest way to defeat China through war is to send them women.

Side: yes, doable

I believe the United States would be the best candidate. The main advantage the Chinese have over the United States is the sheer size of their military force, but as history has shown us simply having a bigger army does not assure victory. There are a number of factors you must consider. Who has homefield advantage? Who has more experienced soldiers? Who has better trained, equipped soldiers? Who has more experienced generals? Who has a stronger air fleet? Who has more resources? Who has better technology? Who has a stronger navy? Who has better intelligence gathering? Who has a more supportive civilian base. Who has a greater capacity to build weapons en mass?It would be a very even match to say the least. At any rate it's just speculation.At any rate this is just speculation.

Yeah, America could defeat China in a 1 on 1 war. This would be really tough though, because if China got into a war with America, Iran and North Korea would automatically join them to get rid of America. However, America would have support from France, Britain, Japan, Canada, parts of the UK, Poland, etc. Well, if say America did lose, North Korea would invade China, and then all the Iran governments would invade North Korea. It would be a brutal war possibly making World War 3. However, the possibilities of China going to war with us is a 1/100 chance and the factor of them winning is nearly impossible. We are a major consumer of China's products and without us, their economic side would fall into pieces easily.

The UK. I know it doesn't seem correct but it is. Firstly, the special relationship between The United States and The United Kingdom is strong; Stronger than any other alliance known to man. The military power of the US and indeed the cunning and wisdom af the RAF, The Royal Navy, and its special forces. Even though The US does not have a friendly relationship with Europe, the UK is a member of the EU, The UN, and NATO, the WTO, and indeed the commonwealth. So that's the power of; The US, UK France, Germany, Italy, Canada, Ireland etc. Against China! Easier said than done but that's fact. WE WOULD WIN. The opinion that Russia could win a world war is just a myth. Since the death of Stalin and The Soviet Union, nuclear weopons are their only threat; no military cunning, no decent air force or Army, and indeed no respect for their own Nation.

Look, this is something everyone isn't considering. We are just common knowledge people, we don't know the advanced and highly classified military protocols for the United States going to war with China. And for those who think oh China can shoot down our satellites, well I rather doubt that with that knowledge the United States Department of Defense is just guna lay down and take it, "well they can shoot down our satellites, guess we should just give up". No, we have things in place to make sure that even if they did we could still have contact, etc. with our troops. Also D.O.D. (department of defense) for the longest time has had strategic plans and instructions for how to attack and dismantle the army and government of every country on the face of the planet and these plans are updated all the time based on military intelligence. As far as war with China goes I rather doubt invasion would even be considered a viable option for the United States military. Mostly likely we would do everything to avoid going to war and if we did end up going to war then our best option would be tactical nuclear weapons. If we didn't we would mostly likely do our best to surprise them. First we would deploy our naval fleet to sea and launch our stealth bomber from NORAD, then take our all their air and ground bases while our subs take out their subs and ships etc. and our carries will scrabble fighters to take out any they had in the air and our bomber to take out any ground forces on the move etc. Mostly likely the United States will "win" not to mention we would seize all chinese interests in America practically erasing our debt hahaha but for now the united states is the world's number one superpower and will remain that way for the foreseeable future.
Debate: Can any country defeat China if they went to war against them?
Side: The US could

The US could Easily Defeat China, China has a very large army, BUT they lack the training and equipment that comes to US soldiers Standardly, All we would have to do to Defeat china is to use the Scorched earth policy, China is very Seld suficent on Agriculture all America would need to do is simply burn China's agriculture down (used by Russians to defeat Napoleon and Hitler) China would be in crisis and the government would have to divert resources to get food for its people and not all towards the war, America would simply starve china out, And being a 1st LT for the us army i know the limits of American troops, and America is very unified not so much in time of peace but look at WW2 America wasn't very united at all but once pearl harbor hit America joined together and won the war, America is the deadliest fighting force the world has ever seen, from Our stealth bombers, to our Special Forces, china can not match our Highly trained individuals, man for man America has china beat in every field, America took on china before in the Korean war, I do not know what general it was but he pushed them back all the way to china with a small force of ill suppled American Infantry. china would be no match for America, sure they got allot of little people with BB guns but America has an elite force with guns that we can hit you and Ur friend with out anyone seeing a flash. Only Chance china would have is to do a military draft recruiting everyone to fight in which even if they one the war there country would be in ruin, now if china ever invaded America it would be to easy, America can never be Conquered and ill tell you why. cause just about every American i know owns at least one gun so if china did ever get the balls to invade America there going to have to kill off the native population, cause i don't know about u guys but i ain't gona let no Chinese man tell me what to do.

This situation has already been modeled, in considerable detail, by a series of games of Risk in my basement. As we all know, the first rule of risk is "Never start a land war in Asia". North America is a bastion surrounded my moats of ocean which provides 5 soldiers a turn, 5! Asia, by comparison, provides 7 and at the cost of considerably more risk in getting taken over. In all of my trials, China prevailed just twice, and the US prevailed more than 8 times. Therefore, I think we can all agree that this issue has been adequately settled. Good debate!
Debate: Can any country defeat China if they went to war against them?
Side: It will never happen

Stupid Idea. It is not in China's interest to go to war with any country, and it is not in any country's interest to go to war with China either. There are too many foreign investments within the country of China, to my knowledge the most recent study shows that there is about 110,000 Americans alone living in China not including citizens from other countries who also live there, so a war with China in China will lead international casualties and damage American and international investments in China. I have been reading the whole thread and facepalm every time I hear something similar "We will just nuke them off the face of the earth" To answer the argument Yes, Yes you can definitely "Win" a war in theory if you nuke someone the last time I checked China is not a planet or a remote island... it is about 11 million square kilometers and piece of land sharing boarders with 14 countries with Russia and India and North Korea just to name a few. So Nuking China will spread radiation all over Asia and not just China alone. Radiation will spread by air, and the amount of radiation caused by a war winning explosion which will win a war against China will decimate the whole world. Just look at the Fukishima Nuclear Power Plant meltdown which is no ware compared to a nuclear bomb but it's particles traveled far enough to reach our east coast.Okay let's try something which isn't going to destroy the whole world, classical warfare... USA have the troops and the technology to stand a chance other countries shouldn't even bother with this unless they have an alliance. This could go both ways, USA becomes cocky and underestimates China's military power like some of the posters I read here then there is a chance USA will loose this fight, I see people posting things like Chinese armies is not well trained or their technologies sucks compared to ours, that could appear to be true but how many of you know that for a FACT. I don't think any country can win a war against China... the only country that can is United States and even then I don't think we will have international support. Yes, we have some international support in terms of our war against "terror"... We (The West) don't agree with China's policies but they have never used their military power to attack anyone (Except they tried to invade Japan in 1274 AD and that was the last time China invaded anyone, but failed) Attacking China for America's gain will make is look even more unpopular with the rest of the world... If we wanted to go into war with China, if anyone has a desire to go into war with China we would have done it a long time ago. War with China is never going to happen, and if it does we will have the largest barbecue the world has ever seen and everyone is invited! It will not be a pretty sight.Defending against an attack is fine... why start more wars? Pointless.

Hi .. Doable so long as you don't follow past military doctrine. There is no need to invade. China's weakness is the same as Japan prior to WW2. lack of raw materials and food. Deny those and it will implode and fracture, strike at its ability to feed it people and produce replacement weaponry.. all over rover. By creating a strong and aspiring middle class the seeds for major change are already sown in China.China is more natural allie to the US than you may think .. remember they as a race / nation are the ultimate traders and business people.To strike and follow up with a ground invasion is folly and outdated. Keep striking leadership centers, communication sites ( and install your own for propaganda).That is how i would do it and deal with Iran a separate topic i know.But lets all get on .. China has valued place as responsible citizen of Earth.Cheers from NZ

China is powerful, indeed. Their Reign of Terror has lasted for 60, long, dreadful years. As for their army, yes, it is undoubtfully large, and powerful. A Country may not be able to defeat China, as China cannot be won against with any technological advances (Bombs etc) too many civilian casualties will appear.1.) The Chinese on Mainland will have to cause a big commotion that will distract the Government and the People's Liberation Army.2.) The Western, Europeans, Pacific, South Asia, and the remaining Powers Unite Under One Alliance.3.) Take out China's signals and jam their Satilleites.4.) Pile troops into Shanghai, Manchuria, and the Inner parts of Mainland China.5.) A Clear and Calm Mind Thinks Thoroughly. The Public will distract them, forcing them to show their flaws.6.) Troops, Armoury, Artilery, Vehicles, Any Type of Offnesive Technological Weapons will be confiscated by the United Westeurasian Alliance, and the air, ground, and water weaponry, be destroyed or pushed to a halt.7.) Assemble Parachut-troops to invade Beijing in the strongest armed forces in numbers and firepower ever recorded in history of humanity. March through Beijing; using the "Take No Prisoner" for the PLA resistant Forces. 8.) Arrest the Leading Members of the Communist Party and hold them hostage, while the rest of the United Powers of Westeurasia (Western Powers, European Powers, Remaining Asian Powers) force the Chinese People's Liberation Army to a halt and surrender.9.) World will be under alert for any missing leaders of the CCP, and then they can track them down for the great times to come for the Chinese people who will have democracy, and those provinces or states in China to have their seperatism granted for their own sovreign state (re)built!Yes, pretty unrealistic, but it's the skeleton of a more better plan I have in mind I believe.... No flame please :)

yes i agree with what your saying on this except for the asia part. i do not believe that any country in aisa would stand by either euro or the us against china. but i do believe that there is a war coming and very soon. i along with the rest of the world do not want this but the us will not stand for another country becoming more powerful then them and will drag every1 else into the argument.

We've got plans for everything. Everything. It's a matter of how far a country is willing to go to do it. It's completely possible, it's just that rules have to be broken, and if certain rules are broken, certain treaties are broken, and if certain treaties are broken, certain countries get mad.I mean, at this point, China is among the world powers. A war with China doesn't get isolated. If a war with China and another world power starts, everyone is getting involved. Everyone.

We are all looking at this the wrong way...If China took a first strike advantage?At China's GDP growth, any "cold war standoff" would only lead in US's loss...In another world war, China and US would most likely not take sides...I mean, that's what the U.N. is for right?

Debate: Can any country defeat China if they went to war against them?
Side: The US could

To win this horrible war , US must;1. Choke their resources in Asia Pacific .2. Lure and make their military stretch to Middle-East even further more, Europe.3. Arrange new conflict zone at border between PLA with Vietnam & India & Russia.4. Constant covert ops inside mainland like sabotage with Allied Forces ( NATO ).5. Humanitarian effort on Northern China ( Mongolia ).6. Strong propaganda for 100 years War to weaken their financial and motivation.7. Divide and conquer only use foreign force ; Japan & Taiwan.8. Ignore South and North Korea conflict at that time.9. Set up Revolution for new Government.10. Do not occupied any cities inside mainland, just islands ( Hongkong, Spartly , etc )11. Apply how Sparta strategy at "Greco-Persian Wars " for modern times !

Yes I 100% agree and the US would not stand alone something China fails to see. As an Australian and China being our largest trading partner, the major majority of the Australian people will always stand by our US brothers. They have always stood by us.

Side: yes, doable

America can easily defeat China in a war because, the United States Navy would impose an immediate blockade of trade with China. Also, Chinese holdings of American debt would become worthless. These two major blows to the Chinese economy would devastate China. During the economic and political chaos, China would become easy prey to the superior American Air Force. Within days, the US Air Force would be able to take out every military installation in China. With Air Control of Chinese Air Space secure, the US Air Force would then shatter electrical, gas, rail, road, and water networks, crippling China. Finally, industrial centers would be bombed to eliminate all possibility of rebuilding. From that point, the Chinese people would have two choices, starvation or surrender. During this period the Communist regime, would lose the support of the military and there will be mass defections of Chinese troops. The military elite would likely seize power from the communist Party and begin proceedings for an unconditional surrender the United States of America.

We have the technology from all ove the world that we need . And personaly I think that other countries would help us becaouse we've done so much to help them.

America. Though it would be a long, hard fight that would probably escalate to a multi-national war, it would come down to this. China has a very large military, they also would be more likely to put a draft in place but America also has a few things. The most advanced military technology in the world, a very large and diverse military, many allies, and in the long run the most important thing, the largest nuclear weapons stockpile in the world. China would more than likely invade Taiwan which America would almost certainly try to prevent. Relations would then deteriorate and small-scale war would break out. At this point, america would gain the advantage and begin to push China back. In order to gain strength, China would ally with N. Korea. This is when things would get very interesting. N. Korea would start launching small scale nuclear attacks against America and it's allies as a warning. China would prevent N. Korea from launching large nuclear attacks to prevent global thermonuclear war but after so many casualties and attacks on the U.S., America would give China and its allies an ultimatum. Stop or we will destroy your cities and reproduce the devastation seen in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan at the end of the last world war. China would hesitate to withdraw and America would drop an atomic bomb in a large city, most likely Beijing. America wins.

No country is above defeat. Sheer man power and military might alone does not win wars. It may win a couple battles but that is the extent of it. When most people hear the word 'war' they automatically think of the fighting, ground troops, tanks etc. Diplomacy, politics, and all the stuff behind the scenes contribute greatly to a successful military campaign (whether it be offensive or defensive). Attacking China itself is not impossible but not feasible either. An invasion would result in hundreds of thousands in casualties. Thus it would require a force more than double the D-Day invasion of Normandy in WWII. It's not possible to undertake such a venture alone. Invasion without allies is certain disaster. Which brings me to my next point. If China goes to war with anybody (besides India) then India would almost certainly see it as an opportunity and align themselves against China. Which poses a bit of a problem for China because India's allies can move troops and supplies through India instead of a direct sea-to-land invasion of mainland China. Another course of action could be utilized over the long term. For example, the U.S. has a superior Navy and Air Force over China. They have bases in Japan and other islands on that side of the world. They could blockade major ports and slowly juice the economy while also bombing vital trade routes (railroads etc.) along with fuel dumps & factories to slow production. If you expect the war to last years it would be wise to hamper their economy in any fashion. "All warfare is based on deception." - Sun TzuWhat better man to turn to in such a debate than the ancient Chinese general and philosopher. When it comes to war a smart policy is to follow an old saying of Benjamin Franklin, "Believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see".

The United States would defeat China because China lacks any kind of an air force or aerial attack.

Well if you study WWII history you could see by my name I. Like Germany, I'm not a racist but I. Like general paulus from the nazis in wwII. I think it is possible to beat china but it would be hard, they have a population of almost 1,400,000,000 wich is about 1/6 of the worlds population. A countries army is usually 2% of their population, but when a draft happens it can be every able bodied person wich could get up to 70% this would be unlikely but with china's communist like government it's possible. I live in the usa, their population is only 300,000,000 wich has no chance alone against china, but with the help of germany's army and ability to race ahead when it comes to war-time technnology plus britan,canada,france, and even poland it would still be a hard fight against russia, china, korea, and india but because of the willingfullness of citizens in the usa and its allies it would get us a bonus in manufactoring and other vital war needs such as food, money, cloths, ect. We could win, but it would be long and hard and china's side would have all of asia at one point, but we'd stop em at europe.
