We need to get used to the fact that China is going to become a major superpower and it’s in our best interest to cultivate them as an ally as quickly as we can and cement an alliance.
..........
unfortunately the Chinese view of the world is very very different. They are just like the moslems and jihad after 1973. They are just like the Germans and Japanese after 1900. What do all these have in common?
They all came into sudden fabulous wealth and power and set out to rule the world.
The Chinese are no different than the others. Unless they are stopped — they will seek to continuously expand their power and influence. They will soon enough turn to military means as other instruments of power lose momentum.
That’s just the way it works.
Well then, we better gear up for yet another world war, eh?
If we’re clever we could form some sort of alliance, or send over a bunch of bitter singletons to marry and thus placate the horny Chinese men in the military.
