I'm not a "Chicom apologist", but I don't see any reason to believe that China has any territorial ambitions on America.

Historically China has had lots of border wars, and has an obsession with "reclaiming" it's territories such as Tibet and Taiwan. And certainly it wants to have more influence in its region of the world (e.g., trade, finance).

But I think Hunter's concerns are overwrought.

Dear angkor,

"But I think Hunter's concerns are overwrought."

I disagree.

China wishes to be what the United States is: the global hegemon.

They don't want to install a Chinese puppet government in Washington, or London, or Moscow. They'll be happy if the governments in all three cities, and every other capital in the world, must accommodate China's political, economic, and cultural ambitions. They'll be happy if the current "unipolar" world dominated by the United States becomes a "unipolar" world dominated by China.

They view world hegemony as their destiny.

We should view it with alarm.

Russia and China are going to eventually hit American Interests....I'd bet my life on it.

Teensy little Japan had the gonads to attack us in 1941. Do you think they had territorial ambitions on America? China is hugh compared to Japan. China could have territorial ambitions on Australia, what would you think then? Let the Aussies fend for themselves?

If China had a desire for Russian land, I'd say let them get as much as they can, but on India, Australia, New Zealand and Hawaii, we need to draw a line.
