    The point I’m trying to make is America likes war a lot. China hasn’t fought a war in 50 years. It’s hard to take Americans seriously when they accuse someone of being aggressive.

      The US has solo hegemony and super power status that has been challenged but never overtaken. US/NATO (for what’s left of it) is the strongest alliance on the planet. My point is other countries are generally hesitant to start conflict due to US policing and involvementpolicing.

          Oh I thought it was to project power and pursue territory disputes. Building islands in neighboring nations waters and stuff. Flying jets over the Philippines and such.
