I guess it depends on what you fear most:
An expansionist communist China or Islam?
Good point Spark. THEY ARE ISLAM. Biggest country. Shows you how far it’s spread. Yuigars in China, militants in Mindanao.
At least the Chinese are somewhat rational.
It is possible that nether Islam nor China will threaten anyone’s capacity to continue to rule their own countries. Please note I say “possible” ..... I dont think anyone knows for sure.
China is a very tightly controlled one party state. They are so successful as a trading nation that they may be wise enough to avoid wars. NB ....... MAY BE .......
Muslim nations in the middle east are constantly fighting each other.
21st century democratic Indonesia does not start wars.
