I have to disagree. Whatever you have witnessed from the start of the Iraq war are countries who have little or no navy. The US Navy have never met with another power similar to China.Agree there is no law against sailing close to USN ships in international waters. Probably why the U.S navy carried on without much fuss either. Asia will be the next hotspots in world issues/conflict these coming years. Interesting.
Mate, NO country can challenge the U.S navy in the high seas. Only a fool will think otherwise.
Plus Korean war was mainly a land based conflict bordering China and the SOVIET UNION. So I think its logical the U.S,U.K,Australia and other western powers had to fight China. N.Korea and indirectly the Soviet union in Korea farrrrrr away from their country/neighbourhood to a standstill. If anything its still an achievement for the U.S and allies since they didnt lost.
Its like Great Britain taking on say the Australian navy/military in N.Ireland or Russia fighting the U.S in mexico and fighting to a standstill, you cant bet there is nothing for the U.S or U.K to be so proud about, since a big power fighting in its own backyard ought to crushany foreign power who is fighting miles away from its homeland.
One thing, when push comes to shove, Chinese will not play by the rules of engagement. I can confidently say, the US will think, not twice but a million times to take on China in the high seas.
Talk is cheap, let's just wait and see the outcome and opinions are like an a$$hole, everyone has one.
