When one looks at the Chairman of the JCS or the current Commandant of the USMC, or the current SecDef who was a four star general I think the answer is self evident.
This something much more existential. It is not enough for China to be able to exert substantial control over and the ability to manipulate much of the current political class. For China’s true purpose, which is a form of global hegemony to truly function the American empire must be destroyed and the US toppled in an unambiguous manner by military means. China today is akin to Imperial Japan in the late 1930’s but with far greater ambitions. Key to the realization of China attaining its ‘historic destiny’ is the military defeat of the USA.

Keeping the supply lines open for the US Military is vital with any extended conflict with a major power, over multiple fronts.
