16. Whats the diffrence?
Dont want to sound like Bush but what is the diffrence if we have a 10k or 1k blown up if they invade SK. Either way it is not enough to actualy slow an atack much. They are a "trip wire" force. If China thinks we might get involved in the conflict what is the benifit for them. Endless bombing the posibility of nuclear confrontation. True cruse missiles cant hold ground but they DO f up infistructure real good. Look what we did to Iraq in the first gulf war.

China isnt crazy. Unless their is a benifit payoff with virtualy no cost they wont do anything.

Also keep in mind that they do kind of like that trade status. No US shipps attempting blockades etc. They will grow a LOT economicaly before they ever chalenge us militarily.
