China has ICBMs. As such the US and China will never go to war as long as sane people are calling the shots. End of story.

A war ready made is now on the table.

“The Chinese are Starting to Feel Surrounded by US Forces from All Sides”: Expert | Global Research
From your link:

In Australia, the number of US marines will be increased 10 times and will reach 2,500 people.

Up to 4 US navy ships will be deployed near Singapore’s coast.

The US is also planning to deploy up to 500 servicemen and reconnaissance aircraft in the Philippines and to create a center for repairing US navy ships there.

Yeah...

Those figures are keeping China's leaders awake at night.

Besides, you should be old enough to recall when the US had a real presence in the Phillipines. That was before that volcanic eruption that closed down Clark Air Force Base and the Navy Base at Subic Bay. Back then, there were many multiples of those numbers based there.

LMAO It does not have anything to do with sane people it is U S policy to spread influence and protect their Allies. You do know that the U S has a security treaty with Japan, translation the U S is their armed forces. I mean it is vital national security that those puny islands go to Japan and kept out of the hands of China If it was up to sanity the U S would just tell Japan that China is stronger and bigger if you choose to get your A$$ kicked over the islands you are on your own.

Instead we send a bi partisan CFR delegation that included Armitage and Hadley{ Bush retreads} to signal China of our bi partisan support for Japan. So Japan has balls now because they have the U S who is willing to spend billions and lose lives, ya know to protect our national security. Oh well, at least there will be something to celebrate for the MIC.

You are an idiot, thank goodness you are not in any sort of position of power. Our missile defense is laughable and we are talking about China here not North Korea. Those "bottle rockets" as you say are made by a space capable power that that can hit pretty much anywhere in the west coast at least and have been able to since at least the 1980s. There will be no shooting them down at least not all of them.

It has lots to do with sane people. It is very simple China has nuclear weapons. These nuclear weapons are pointed at the US. Therefore we will not fight them.

I'm sorry, Colonel, I didn't realize I was in the presence of such a brilliant strategic military mind as yours.

Our missile defense is far from laughable. It is the best in the world, despite lacking 100% guaranteed ICBM defense capabilities.

And don't give me that "space capable" "they have nukes pointed as us" horse crap. Talk about laughable. After you're done pulling China's pubes out of your teeth, you might learn that they have ZERO ICBM defense capabilities and wouldn't dare launch one of their bottle rockets at us for fear of total annihilation.

Also, it's very simple, we buy all of China's cheaply made, poorly engineered, poisonous, plastic, slave-labor Wal-mart crap. We ARE China's economy. Not a good idea to start a military conflict with the U.S.

Get over yourself, you laughable excuse for a chi-comm shill.

Besides that, China would never attack a nation that has a Muslim president.

Couldn't they just cash in all the US bonds they own, and put out their own presidential candidate financed by their Super PACS. Sounds a lot easier than a ground invasion.

War would cripple us both.

It will not happen in the foreseeable future.
