"...its defense budget, estimated to be as much as $90 billion, remains a fraction of the U.S. defense budget, it is enough to make China the world's third-biggest weapons buyer (behind Russia)..."

"Their different approaches include financial warfare (subverting banking systems and stock markets), drug warfare (attacking the fabric of society by flooding it with illicit drugs), psychological and media warfare (manipulating perceptions to break down enemy will), international-law warfare (blocking enemy actions using multinational organizations), resource warfare (seizing control of vital natural resources), even ecological warfare (creating man-made earthquakes or other natural disasters).
