You would have to be a deluded fool or an absolute bare faced liar to say China is the aggressor in this totally USA made area of conflict. The USA has been building American base surrounding China as staging places for attack. I believe their are 22 now. Also their are allied forces in the region both Australia and U.K. under a specific anti Chinese military pact made last year. Plus vassal states such as Japan who recently launched an attack helicopter carry for projected might not defence.

What many don’t realise is the strength of the Chinese military. Jane’s manual is the worldwide independent series of books that list all aspects of military kit and personnel. Ships carry then to help aide indentifying enemy warships and aircraft. You may be Surprised to learn that the number one rated combat soldier is China. Also they have lust launched a state of the art aircraft carrier. Of the two new smaller British carriers one is permanently In port with reactor troubles. The other is sailing around the Med but unfortunately does not have one aircraft aboard as the only aircraft suitable for carriers, the Harrier jump jet, was retired last year. No doubt at some point they will buy some outdated F35’s from the Yanks but there not much cop in a modern dog fight.

But America is bankrupt. It is defaulting on even paying the interest on the huge debts to China. So as well as Empire building they can wipe off the debt plus put their main cash cow , the American military complex into overdrive mode.

Even with vassal states such as Japan at their disposal I think they under estimate the Chinese who will be defending their homeland from foreign aggressors. How long until it become WWIII or the U.S deploys nuclear weapons in that part of the world. Not quite as easy as the Proxy war in the Ukraine but far from American ground.
