We don't speak their language nor understand their culture. We let our politicians and media fan the new cold war narrative. Creating an enemy out of a friend is very strange to me. They have been perfectly happy as the number 2 as long as they continue to slowly prosper economically. Now we are basically forcing China to over take US. Again very strange.

-Land grabs? Huh? Are we talking about China that historically has been carved into pieces? Who have they invaded and where is that land?
-Resource stealing? You mean trade? Where are they stealing resources?
-Expansionism? Huh? Again where are you getting your news from?
You can't be serious?

I'm Australian. There's a reason our SAS troops, US marines and now Japanese special forces are stationed in Darwin. There's a reason Pine Gap is getting upgrades. There's a reason we're getting Virginia Class submarines. There's a reason the Japanese are rolling through their biggest military uplift since WW2. There's a reason the Indians have had to beef up their presence on the Sino-Indian border.

Heard of the "nine dash line"? Look it up.

You know, recently, Australian military divers were injured with a Chinese ship fired a sonar blast despite ours signalling that there were divers in the water. Tip of the iceberg.

Have a look at what they are doing to the Philippines amongst other SE Asian countries. Constant encounters with their vessels.

They're picking fights with everyone.

And that's just militarily. There's a raft of economic and social acts across the world you ought to read up on.

Gee whiz.
