    If China went after us we could destroy their economy in a heartbeat. China and the Us rely on each other to much.

    Yes, very true, just like two tragic lovers hugging each other and jumping down the cliff together, putting an end to their heartbeats and love-hate relations.

    Thanks for seeing eye to eye with me. Great minds think alike indeed. The title of the thread is strange, of course. It confuses not only you but most people because it originated from a confused mind.

    I am still waiting a reply from my good friend litwin. Most probably he is still sulking and regretting asking for an answer he dislikes very much.

    Bush's alarmist warmongering might end up as his swan song. God bless him.

    Brother there's plenty of room in Mongolia. China would go there first. Why do you think they are restricting couples to one child? They are not a physicly expansionist nation. Trade yes but empire no. The Chinese don't want to be "tainted " with outsider blood.

    My dear friend, this is no evidence that China wants to build a global empire.

    China has learned to play good chess. When the US is attacking on the king side (South China Sea), China makes a counterattack on the queen side (South America). That's tit for tat.

    We are in the middle of WWIII right now. It's in the Mediterranean rim and Afghanistan and Pakistan. It's in France and Britain and Sweden. It's between Islam and Freedom. China will send people to Mongolia where nobody much cares and the Russians will need people to come in anyway. Their population is shrinking at a very high rate.

    China will implode from a revolution anyway. It's inevitable. Sometime between 2012 and 2017.

    I don't think China's actually very aggressive. China has an attitude closer to, "Yeah, whatever. Invade us. Like we care. We'll own you if you do." They're like a tar baby. Best to just avoid conflict. It's a good strategy.

    I'm not exactly fond of the way the Chinese government treats its people. I think they should treat them more like people.

    But I'm not worried. They won't go invading India or anything. It's not their style.

    In the sake of fairness and honesty they don't exactly have a developed style yet. They're laying low until they gain more power and then God knows what they'll do.

    Don't worry so much about China, my dear friend. Like the Philippines and Indonesia, China may solve the problem by becoming another "nation of maids". Hence China´s future 'lebensraum' (living space) may be the living rooms of all other nations (including your living room).

    Well said. With regard to my friend litwin's worry about China's future 'lebensraum' (living space), I wish to introduce to him a modern Chinese ghost town called Ordos in Inner Mongolia.

    The following information about Ordos is taken from "Time Photos of Ordos, China: A Modern Ghost Town" at http://www.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29307,1975397,00.html

    "Meant as home for one million people, the Kangbashi district remains nearly empty five years after construction began.

    The Kangbashi district began as a public-works project in Ordos, a wealthy coal-mining town in Inner Mongolia. The area is filled with office towers, administrative centers, government buildings, museums, theaters and sports fields—not to mention acre on acre of subdivisions overflowing with middle-class duplexes and bungalows. The only problem: the district was originally designed to house, support and entertain 1 million people, yet hardly anyone lives there.

    Though many of the properties in Kangbashi have been sold and a million people were projected to be living in Kangbashi by 2010, the city is still empty.

    Mostly empty apartment buildings in Kangbashi, a half hour down the road is Dongsheng, where most of Ordos' 1.5 million resident call home.

    The city boasts the second highest per-capita income, behind to Shanghai but ahead of Beijing.

    Kangbashi awaits residents to bring the district, meant for a population the size of San Diego, California, to life."

    More information about Ordos can be found in the following link:

    Revisiting China’s ‘Empty City’ of Ordos
    http://blogs.wsj.com/chinarealtime/2010/05/12/revisiting-chinas-empty-city-of-ordos/

    If my friend litwin can afford, he can try to buy over all the high-rise buildings in Ordos, and become the mayor of the ghost city. By then, he will be so busy finding residents for his ghost city that he will have no time worrying about China's future 'lebensraum' (living space). If he finds enough residents, he can dress them up as knights and other inhabitants of the Middle Age and enjoy the whole day riding horses and fencing with his friends.

    Even if he can't afford, he should visit the place, which in opinion, should be selected as one of the Modern Seven Wonders in the world due to its uniqueness. Down there, alone in a vast open space among countless tall buildings, anybody with a confused mind will regain his senses and will develop a balanced view of China. After visiting Ordos, who will still have the confused mind to claim that the Chinese have no future 'lebensraum' (living space)?

    I dont see any kind of armed invasion, or armed conflict of any sort with the US, they dont need to, firstly they cant even repatriate their own province of Taiwan, let alone come after the US militarily. Since when is G Dubb a insider on anything? Its worse then I thought!

    What they can do is sit back and let the US bankrupt themselves, which we are moving full steam ahead with that plan, OBL will win, and China will reap the benefits.

    The WWIII has already started when NATO went to Libya. Iran will be next by Christmas. North Korea is on the list, believe me.

    Some westerners is not afraid of nuclear war as much as we think.

    Indeed, I am also glad to find someone who is seeing eye to eye with me in this forum.

    Only China and other targeted countries by US can escape all sort of attacks from her, they already feel very lucky, and to accuse them aggressive by the the bully itself, this is way lauguable.

    Very true. China will only become aggressive if she's been provoked. China want stablity and peace more than anything else, espectially after what she's been through for the last couple centuries.

    It could be one of the few times Bush told the truth. Also,just because you have ghost cities doesnt mean your not looking to the future. Their environment is terribly polluted,and they see North America as a lush garden

    The following is the actual text of a speech delivered in December, 2005 by Comrade Gen.Chi Haotian –the Vice-Chairman of China’s Military Commission to top officers
    and generals.


    http://www.rense.com/general85/ChinaSpeaks.pdf

    the last few paragraphs are telling

    "Biological weapons are unprecedented in their ruthlessness, but if the Americans do not die then the Chinese have to die. If the Chinese people are
    strapped to the present land, a total societal collapse is bound to take place.
    According to the computations of the author of Yellow Peril, more than half of the
    Chinese will die, and that figure would be more than 800 million people! Just after
    the liberation, our yellow land supported nearly 500 million people, while today the
    official figure of the population is more than 1.3 billion. This yellow land has
    reached the limit of its capacity. One day, who know how soon it will come, the
    great collapse will occur any time and more than half of the population will have to
    go.
    It is indeed brutal to kill one or two hundred million Americans. But that is the
    only path that will secure a Chinese century, a century in which the CCP leads the
    world. We, as revolutionary humanitarians, do not want deaths, But if history
    confronts us with a choice between deaths of Chinese and those of Americans, we’d
    have to pick the latter, as, for us, it is more important to safeguard the lives of the
    Chinese people and the life of our Party.
    The last problem I want to talk about is of firmly seizing the preparations for
    military battle. The central committee believes, as long as we resolve the United
    States problem at one blow, our domestic problems will all be readily solved.
    Therefore, our military battle preparation appears to aim at Taiwan, but in fact is
    aimed at the United States, and the preparation is far beyond the scope of attacking
    aircraft carriers or satellites. Marxism pointed out that violence is the midwife for
    the birth of the new society. Therefore war is the midwife for the birth of China’s
    century.”

    ok, whats about this?
    "The Sino–Vietnamese War (Vietnamese: Chiến tranh biên giới Việt-Trung), also known as the Third Indochina War, known in the PRC as {{zh|s=对越自卫反击战|p=duì yuè zìwèi fǎnjī zhàn|l=Counterattack against Vietnam in Self-Defense)) and in Vietnam as Chiến tranh chống bành trướng Trung Hoa (War against Chinese expansionism), was a brief but bloody border war fought in 1979 between the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. The PRC launched the offensive in response to Vietnam's 1978 invasion and occupation of Cambodia, which ended the reign of the PRC-backed Khmer Rouge."
