1. To understand the knowledge of world order, one must understand how the system works. Do you think that the United States would risk further complicating the security of the Korean peninsula over 1 hostile action by the DPRK? The sinking of that one ship fuels the anger of the South Koreans, strengthens the alliance between Seoul and Washington. The trait of a super power , is the ability to contain sentiments and to aim to maintain the strategic upper-hand. One must wait for the best moment to strike, in the end game, not at petty movements of a pawn.
Buddy, are you putting on a Vietnamese accent just to be "in" with the crowd here?
I cannot believe that an American with English as their first language could write something like the post above. English is my third language, yet I can still write it without such an obvious accent as the one in your post.
I don't think the Chinese are that stupid to initiate a war with the Vietnamese in the first place. It would be diplomatic suicide on Beijing's part.
Why on Earth would China want a war?
We are the ones gaining the most from the current global status quo. We are adding more to our economy every single year than anyone else in the world. It would be stupid of us to rock the boat when things are going so well.
