"Never would happen", how many times that has been stated & proven wrong.They have a military, yes, as does any developed country. They have no reason to attack us. We buy half their stuff anyway. They don't hate us like the media might try and make it seem. I bring this up with my roommate who is a student from China and he thinks it's stupid that the US always is making the Chinese look like a big military power ready to attack us. No one in his country spreads rumors like that. It's not a topic there, he says it would never happen. They depend on us for food...
I hope you are correct but I will remain cautious, much the same as your government.
