Default why is it that China keeps preparing for war

against us, and we keep pretending they are not?

It looks like we have a dumbass running the Pacific fleet. China doesn't need spies. We invite them right in and ask them to take what they please.

Care to elaborate? No threat at ALL? What about an economic threat, or a future threat? What do you mean by that?
