No.
Km, you're just ****ing stupid. Sure lets just start an all out nuclear war. Are you that dumb? I expect only Americans to be that stupid.

, china would kick your arses all the way back to nam. bush will only wage war with countries that have something he can profit from (oil in iraq). nothing will be done about korea - it has nothing of value.

Yeah, those might be just what bush needed to start this cool war.
Woohoo! War!
Woohoo! War!
Yes, unless there is a better way to oust the leaders and destroy the terrorist organization. I'm not for war but I am for eliminating terrorist. What I am worried about is that the terrorist will just pick up and move to another terrorist friendly country.
What I would really like to see is assasins backed by our Govt. to go in and take out the leaders of these organizations. Then as new leaders take over send them back in to do the same. Eventually they will be hard pressed to find anyone to take over.
You would think with our money and technology it would be easy to find someone and take them out.

I agree,... assasins would work. But may woruld argue the morality in it. But then,... is there morality in war?
Why do you think this country ever pulled out of Vietnam?
Contrary to popular belief, we did not lose the Vietnam War to Vietnam. We lost it under the threat of Chinese military forces helping Northern Vietnam forces.
We're scared as hell about China - they've got the most powerful military on Earth.

No they don't. They have the greatest population on earth, which doesn't directly translate into millitary power. They are a powerfull country, but not more so than the U.S.
Japan kicked their ass for crissakes.
But the most important aspect is that neither China nor America wants to have a war. It would not be in either's best interest and would destabilize the whole world... and probably go nuclear.

He has to be. What are the top 5 armies in the world? I think the US is the most powerful if you combine all the armed forces it has, but I remember hearing on the News(Mind you, it's American, so it has to be wrong because they always find a way to mess up) that North Korea has the 3rd largest army in the world....

I don't have to bring up the fact that that was sixty years ago when China's military wasn't as strong as Japan's, as well as the fact that Japan struck when China was ill-prepared yet when Japan was fully prepared for all possible options.

No. I think we should start shelling the piss out of Iraq for cheaper oil and to bolster the image of an obviously incompetent leader.
Duh....I know..
China's military is modernizing, but there are distinct limits to the modernization program. First, the current force structure is so old that the rate of retirement will exceed the rate of acquisition in all major weapons categories, with the possible exception of major surface combatants. This means that the size of Chinas armed forces will continue a recent pattern of decline, and to drop quite steeply in some cases, such as combat aircraft. The only exception may be China's surface combat ships.
In other words even if they are trying to modrenize their military they are still miles behind the US.
