    Irrespective of WHEN, I'd bet my last dollar that China is the impetus or partial root cause of the next WORLD conflict.

    Book it!

    i agree 100%. china has all signs. there was a major military build up before the last 2 and china has been doing that the last few years. there actually right behind us on military spending right now and have more nuclear subs in there fleet now then our navy. our navy and most of our military is downsizing alot of things and china continues to build up at an alarming rate. its inevidable and will happen witch is unfortunate since china has 1.8billion people and a huge nuclear arsenal

    Well to be fair the US spends twice as much on its military as China, russia, France, UK, Japan, Germany and Italy combined. Ten times as much as china.

    Of course you get a whole lot more dollar per dollar in china than in the us. But is still not even close, you cut could your spending in half and still have plenty over to beat both China and Russia in a conventional war.

    I personaly doubt we will se another war betwen the major world powers, simply because such a war can not be won and everyone knows it. Nukes have keept the peace for over 60 years now. Who would start a war knowing that even in the best case scenario your country would lose half its population and all major cities?
