U.S. and Japan concerned about China's growing Military...........
Edited on Sat Feb-19-05 12:08 PM by indianablue
I just have to laugh.

Let see both nations including many more are exporting their jobs, their technology to China all in the name of cheap labor.

It does not a take a bright person to figure out why China's military is growing.

I am not saying they are not an enemy just saying we our trading are status as Super Power for cheap labor and high profit margins.

1. agreed. Because corporate interests...
...are tied in so much with China's abundance of Cheap Labor, both countries will have a hard time defining them as a possible "enemy."

2. Well, the US befriended Iraq and (what became) the Taliban as well.
We sew the germs to our demise in the name of friendship. And when we're reaped of what we'd sewn, we blame it on those we befriended while trying to bury our own past.

Sorry, for this I am 2510% stereotype liberal: The US has only itself to blame.

3. I wonder what the U.S. will do if China starts attacking other countries,
using the same logic or pretexts we used to attack Iraq?Preemptive Chickens will come home to roost?
