I have showed a list of events clearly aimed against the US.

I don't see any events you listed as being clearly aligning with the US.

Your list: of items is very disntinct from aligning with the US...
1)China invading Vietnam had nothing to do with the US...this is a long running border dispute.
2)breaking with USSR...again an intense rivalry and hatred that had nothing to do with aligning with US.
3)Open doors to Nixon...poppycock,,,this was payback for the US selling out Taiwan as a sovereign nation and recognizing China in the UN.
4)business with US and West...this is not done to align with the US or West but take advantage of it...their writing expressly prove this out and their WTO tactics and flaunting of WTO rules is very telling.
5)You failed to mention the most recent military arangements with Russia that Krauthammer depicts.

Please name me one policy showing the Chinese aligning or even leaning toward being a responsible international state.

The Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT), which entered into force in March 1970, seeks to inhibit the spread of nuclear weapons. Its 188 states-parties are classified in two categories: nuclear-weapon states (NWS)—consisting of the United States, Russia, China, France, and the United Kingdom—and non-nuclear-weapon states (NNWS).

"their WTO tactics and flaunting of WTO rules is very telling."

Wanting to join the hyper-capitalistic WTO is a Chinese step in the right direction.

Choosing diplomacy, rather than force, to reclaim Hong Kong was a positive sign.
