yes, I would agree with you a lot on what you said above. The war with china (if any) is not on the military level, but is and should be on the socio-economic development issues.

we should ought to say, that we both have 1 billion+ people, lets see who can do things for them better, who can eradicate cancer/malaria/dengue/H1N1/etc, who can provide better education and opportunities, and much more.

The fights of today and tomorrow should not be fought with guns and explosives, it should be with budgets and plan implementations.
