Not surprised.
War is coming to the East. The Chinese need a war to unify their people or face revolution and a re-erection of the bamboo curtain. Only a war against a determined foe can stop the forces of equality that are rising in an very uneaqual land. My guess—war on the hated Japanese, on the despised Koreans, or the rebellous Taiwanese. Even war on the ancient enemy in Vietnam. With their weath they have bought off the USA. We dare not strike them because of the debt and the Nuclear Weapons. Would we want to lose San Diego or LA? Would Obama counter strike—I think not. If they can beat us in a short war—they will own the east!
