US prepares for long war with China that might hit its bases, homeland

LONDON, May 16 (Reuters) - Earlier this month, U.S. Air Force Brigadier General Doug Wickert summoned nearby civic leaders to Edwards Air Force Base in California to warn them that if China attacks Taiwan in the coming years, they should be prepared for their immediate region to suffer potentially massive disruption from the very start.
In a remarkable briefing shared by the base on social media and promoted in a press release, Wickert - one of America's most experienced test pilots now commanding the 412th Test Wing - outlined China's rapid military growth and preparations to fight a major war.

Cutting-edge U.S. aircraft manufactured in California’s nearby “Aerospace Valley”, particularly the B-21 “Raider” now replacing the 1990s B-2 stealth bomber, were key to keeping Beijing deterred, he said. However, if deterrence failed that meant China’s would likely strike the U.S. including nearby Northrop Grumman factories where those planes were built.

"If this war happens, it's going to happen here," Wickert told them, suggesting attacks could include a cyber offensive that included long-term disruption to power supplies and other national infrastructure. "It's going to come to us. That is why we are having this conversation... The more ready we are, the more likely to change Chairman Xi’s calculus."

In the video Prophecy Round Table that I posted a few days ago in the End Times Prophecy forum
Pete Garcia discusses this topic, not specifying with China, but that "The US is Preparing For War".
He bases this conclusion on his observations and his military experience and he's rather certain the Pentagon is preparing for war.
Now this report today in the OP goes with Pete's assessment.
It would be worth the watch of the video on the Prophecy Roundtable from a few days ago to listen to Pete talk about this if you want to hear what he's seeing and compare to the report in this OP thread.

The US military trains and prepares for every contingency that can be thought of on a regular basis. Why the General thought to make something like this public is the question that I wonder about. If you wonder what the portion of the military is doing that isn't directly performing an operational mission- they're preparing for operations that they might be called to perform.
