ye that would suck, but I only think Great Britain will help USA. countries like France, Germany and the Netherlands probably will give support troops for the people in the surrounding countries/china

they have a million man army.
american war ships would sit off the coast of japan, launch jets and bombers and destroy china's navy and airforce with minimal casualties on america's side, crippling the ability of china to engage the war on any other front besides thier homeland. then with months of more missle strikes at key targets, china's army would be a sitting duck. we would have no need to invade. the loss of the war would destroy their economy and china would be set back a few decades
it' a fact we have 3 times china's military power. common sense leads me to believe that china doesn't stand a chance. but of course this is the perfect scenario with a war between just china and the us

how much has our military been depleted just by the war in Iraq? You dont seem to understand how this works. A war isnt going to consist of us SOLELY sitting outside of China in war ships and shooting missles at them. At SOME point, we would have to put troops on the ground. A war in China would go for YEARS. Winning a war isnt just killin a lot of people, its accomplishing your objective which the US wouldnt be able to do...like Vietnam. Who could kill more people doesnt matter. The war would obviously be on their homeland, not ours so obviously we'd cause more destruction. But thats not the point. When the war was over, nothing would change...and nothing would be solved. The American people are a little out of touch when it comes to this stuff. Like i said, they get pumped up too much into thinking we're untouchable. You got idiots like Bush on tv that make u feel tough lol. But if you dont realize how strong China is...just see how our government handles any conflicts with China. Guarentee we'll talk them out and find a "peaceful" solution whereas a country like Iraq we'd just invade recklessly and start shooting...

why would we have to invade on the ground?....doesn't make any sense. vietnam, we were trying to get out troops. iraq, trying to get out insurgents. afghanistan, overthrowing the government. WW2 push back armies... there is not one single reason to put a large number of ground troops in china
we would just have to destroy their abilities to attack us, let asia and europe worry about the 1,000,000 man army. they're not gonna swim to the US to invade us. the aftermath of those attack would set china back a few decades to rebuild what we destroy
all these articles about china even say they aren't a threat NOW but they may be in the FUTURE...
the US military has the capabilities to swage war on 2 more well armed countries and still do well. so unless we start wars with n korea, iran, and china all at once, we have nothing to worry about.... like i said, do some research on the topic
Don Rizzle:
you think america would ever get the public confidence to wage a stupid war against china? the only reason there are tensions is because america is interfeiring with local politics (taiwan) as usual, just like it did with n ireland when clinton let the shin fein leader jerry adams go to america to raise money for the IRA, PM John Major wouldn't speak to clinton after that for ages, we never needed or wanted americas involvement although i think blair has managed to turn it in his favour a bit, but they should have never stuck their ore in the first place and even spoken to jerry adams. just like america shouldn't get involved over taiwan .
