usa are known murderers

"The Iraq people didn't cooperate"?!

They didn't even want the US troops destroying their homeland in the first place!

Whatever excuses the US government comes up with (peace keeping, democracy, WMDs.....) WAR ISN'T JUSTIFIED

@JayPull85 the chinese are not inexperienced at war, they've been in a state of constant war and infighting for millenia from dynasty to dynasty and all of which without modern day rules of engagement. Think vietnam. where all that technology and money just resulted in an endless slog against an enemy that won't give up.

@wasatchkatie1 sure, just ship armed rednecks by the hundreds of thousands to an foriegn country to fight. See how well that works out for you. You forget the chinese citizenry lived through more than 100 years of war during the 19th-20th century, They know how to fight.

"wait what the Chinese will do" Yeah right.. the Americans will never succeed in defeating, let alone occupying, China in the first place :p If China decides to go to war we're screwed (we meaning the rest of the world)

@Phead128 growing middle class, rise out of poverty, etc., etc. But to indirectly suggest China does not need us at this point is just ridiculous. In the future it looks like China will not need our consumer base nearly as much because of their growing wealth.

@Phead128 knowledgeable of the subject. I too have taken these wonder university level courses that you speak of, but what I learned is not everything you "learn" at the university is accurate to the real world. Your attitude that you are somehow privy to insider knowledge simply because you took a university level course is laughable. Your attitude is what makes people look at the university system (particularly the liberal arts) with skepticism. Back to China. I am well aware of China's

@Phead128 I would love to respond, but i'm just drowning in your cold-hard facts that you presented! I'm also extremely intimidated that you took a university level (poly sci?) course on Globalization in East Asia. Maybe you need to spend more time focusing on English 101. "You are just sheer ignorant retard. You myfriend, are retarded." Lol poor grammar, and you repeated yourself. Besides that, taking a university level course does not make you a master, nor does it even mean you are

@Phead128 If China lost Wal-mart, about 300 million Chinese people would starve to death. They need us as much as we think we need their shit products.
