China has many internal problems that we ignore such as a self inflicted population implosion that cannot be reversed, they are having a run on their banks in Shanghai as well as in rural areas. They manage to rattle their sabers all the while trying to keep things together at home. I don’t minimize what they do daily in cyber stealing & spying or the supply chain damage they can do but China is a country in decline & it will happen quickly. They are desperate.
You are right. But they also are a manufacturing colossus. Spoken as an American manufacturer who has had one of my companies designs copied by China, it is amazing how fast they can put things into production. This would include weapons. They are very dangerous to poke right now. Sometimes countries rattle their sabers to keep things together at home. I do not deny that they have BIG problems, not the least of which, they are officially Godless ( unlike Russia). Yours is a very excellent observation Leslie.
The Chinese have one huge problem - they need the West to keep buying thier goods. An enormous amount of their manufacturing capabilities are focused on export. Most of what they manufacture is unaffordable or useles to their own general population.
Being "Godless" is not a problem -- most atheists are kind, compassionate people who care deeply about their fellow man. Don't confuse "Godlessness" with "amorality."

Countries with big internal problems are the most dangerous, because there’s no greater distraction from those problems than a great, big war.
