What do you think of China's growing military strength and assertiveness? Is China our next adversary?

China has asserted ownership of nearly all of the South China Sea and is building at least seven artificial islands in the key waterway. U.S. officials say they do not take sides in territorial disputes. But they worry that China could use the new islands — at least one of which includes a military-grade runway and deepwater harbor — to assert control over air and sea navigation and have called on China to halt construction. What are your thoughts? Is China a threat to World Peace and the US?

Sgt David G Duchesneau If they do become the next major adversary then they have definitely given us (7) Seven prime targets to complete wipe off the face of the earth in the Pacific Ocean without very much civilian damage. We just need to be prepared for an all out attack (which I don't think will happen) like we received from Japan on Pearl Harbor!

Colonel, I agree with you but the Chinese are very unpredictable and a bunch of sneaky bastards. Christ only knows who the hell they are really in bed with? One thing for sure, it's not us. And all of these 7 Islands could just be a decoy to keep us occupied and off guard.

SSG Norman Lihou And they're going to keep doing it. Because we're letting them. And we're going to keep letting them.

Few countries respect the United States anymore since we lost credibility and reliability. Thank You sheeples....

SPC Sheila Lewis - I would say something to the effect of 'just wait until China starts building islands in the Bering Sea'...but the sad reality is, we probably STILL wouldn't do anything.

History has proven "wait and see" doesn't work; let's simply ask China what it is up to.

Why should they stop? They know that no one is going to do anything but bitch about it.
