If there is a war—China will not be directly involved—It will be short and be resolved in the UN—Obama will get a new Peace Prize—Hillary will be at the Peace Table—everyone will forget Benghazi and the junk will still be coming in from China! They win! Think more like the 6 day war than WW II.
That’s actually my perception of what will happen. China wants and needs oil. There are many oil rich islands such as the Spratly islands. Control over these islands has been contested for decades and now China may be ready to make a move. We are the only ones standing in the way.
