Isnt it funny that the ones who most advocate for war are also ones who never served? I think the term is called chickenhawk.
With respect...none of this is any real concern or is even America's business.
China has NEVER attacked a country outside of it's historical borders...NEVER. They are an inward looking people...they do not seek world conquest. Why would a people who do not like foreign 'blood' to mix with their own want to rule the world? They would not and do not.
What they want is to be extremely powerful within their borders and to use the world ECONOMICALLY to strengthen themselves.
China is smart enough to know - what American neocons are clueless about - that starting war gets you NOTHING but lots of trouble, huge costs and decades of problems. So they wage war with money.
And it's working.
While America runs all over the world - desperately trying to control it with her military...all the while seeing their economy stagnate. China is growing their economy hand over fist through economic - not military - expansionism.
No way China invades any part of India except with economic expansion.
America has to stop this ridiculous and expensive policing-the-world crap/paranoia and concentrate on getting their fiscal and economic house in order.
And yet, the fact remains that these regions are disputed. They are not Chinese, and last time I checked China doesn't have the right to start shooting at other countries' troops because they have this fantasy about annexing all of "historical China".
Historically speaking, that has literally never needed well.
I didn't not say they had the right to do what they did.
I just said that China has NEVER attacked anyone outside if their historic borders, and (to my knowledge) they never have. They are an inward looking people. They have little interest in world conquest EXCEPT in terms of economics.
So...India's and America's sovereignty have nothing whatsoever to fear from China.
You want to thinklije a neocon and try and drum up fear and alarm about China taking over the planet...go ahead. But you do not understand the Chinese if you do.
It would be useful if you would bother yourself with the reason behind this new push. The first page of this thread will enlighten you as to the causes behind this latest flare up.
When one of my kids was young, he thought all pirates did was rob ships of ammunition so they could rob more ships because after all, the were pirates. This is basically where this thread has degenerated to.
How can you write all that blather and ignore the economic reasons behind it?
And it would be useful if you would a) bother to look at the fact that the OP is apparently from a neocon-style, nationalistic, Chinese tabloid. Hardly an unbiased source.
And b) that...as I stated...China has never attacked any region outside of their historic borders.
They are a relatively closed society...an inward looking people.
Now, if you live in Taiwan or some other area that was once part of historic China...you might want to worry.
But India and especially America have ZERO to fear from a Chinese military invasion.
It would be helpful if you - and all Americans (most of whom seem utterly clueless on world history) - would take the time to understand the history and culture of a country before you jump up and down like frantic neocons screaming 'they are evil'.
Just because many Americans want to dominate the world does not mean everyone else does.
Clearly, you have got 'neocon fever' and have a closed mind on this subject. And I try not to waste my time debating a subject with someone who is not open to new ideas on that subject.
So...we are done here...for now at least.
Good day.

And Pakistan may become the Middle East's North Korea with the cooperation of China.
