Yesterday’s P.J. quote was about China, for those of you who haven’t memorized his books. And it is a possibility. A few months before 9/11, the biggest foreign policy issue of Bush IIs short-at-the-time political career was in China. An EP-3 doing surveillance off the coast actually landed in their target country....we could end up discovering that THAT was the really significant event of the year.
But I doubt it.
Could China turn into a threat to this nation’s very survival? In the next ten years? It has benefited, certainly, from the U.S. relaxing trade regulations, and there are reactions - by some folks and for particular issues - when China is in the news. It doesn’t seem enough to end up as a war or more significant Crisis, any time soon.
