Thomas is 100% correct.
It's far better to think of the Chinese, Iranian & Russian regimes are organized crime gangs.
They won't go to war with the USA, because that means an immediate end to their scam. It's against their interests.

World War III won't happen.
The Chinese are actually a mafia, not committed communists.…
Similar to the #Democrats - a Criminal Enterprise who were in control of Congress & White House during the Dark Presidency Of Barack Obama
Luckily, the founders installed checks and balances
This is one of the most stupid things the dude has said.
Nature of system is entirely irrelevant to each country having its own set of self interests.
Maybe talk people from these states before generic stereotyping
Iran has plenty of historical incidents where preexisting dynasties or Emperors were overthrown because they were perceived to be too weak.
And Iranian political apparatus is lot more robust than China or Russia for that matter.
Well #2 reason their won't be "WW3" in the military sense is because China won't attack in that manner with the USA.
Why charge at the USA like North Korea does, threatening to nuke us all the time.
China isn't dumb. They attack silent, they been milking USA for decades.
It didn't help that manufacturing went there, and they took all the IP, and greedy US politicians getting rich off short term gains for themselves, at the expensive of MASSIVE wealth drain on the country for years.
Hah! A mafia with over a million man army is like the Borg. Resistance is futile. Oil in the Mideast may become very tempting. The US will be like a fly to them.
China is out of land and is struggling to effectively colonize Canada, Iran is turning into the largest human smuggling operation, and Russia- it's a country whose military takes leave to invade other sovereign nations. Socialism is fantastic.
