Well you certainly sound like the expert. I'm not trying to disagree for the sake of it. You obviously feel you have ample data to support your theories. I feel their is enough to convince me that China if not now, will be a major force to reckon with in the very near future.

Our own Pentagon, politicians, analyst are beginning to express concerns over the rapid military build up of China in all aspects from satellites to surface ships, missiles to amphibious capabilities.

I guess it's just a quinkie dink that China constantly probes the Japanese and Filipino defenses. I guess it's just a minor side note that the Chinese have placed enough surface to surface missiles opposite of Taiwan to take out infrastructure in an effort to pave the way for war. I guess it's just worthless to mention the Pentagon's recent offer to upgrade Taiwan's missile defense, air force. I predict the report from the Navy expressing concern for China's modernization of their anti-ship sunburn cruise missiles is just a pesky nuisance. Just white noise that's all.

I guess our government isn't concerned enough to send Dr. Rice to consult with the Chinese. I guess Bush just thought he go over for a lil vacation at the great wall and all. Hell no man, they are their to get a feel for why the Chinese are trying to dominate the South China sea, manipulate currency to beat down our economy, their attempt to control the Panama Canal, their recent interest in purchasing American owned oil companies, manipulating the oil markets, HUGE trade deficit and unfair trade policies, the Chicoms suppression of dissent, and on and on.

If your so ded gum smart, stop throwing insults and throw out a little data to help others understand your position. I can tell ya, if only 30% of the data, analysis and reports I've read over the last few years is correct, if only 30%, China is definitely attempting to flex it's might and we as Americans are the one's their aiming at.
