You need to be more rational. Any country "could" attack America. Logical thinking, and analysis of current relations between the US and China allows us to come to the conclusion that China shows absolutely no desire to start a war with the U.S.

You don't seem to remember that, prior to the US liberation of Iraq, there were open hostilities between America and Iraq. Iraq was led by a criminally insane thug, who showed the propensity to attack other nations. Saddam actively supported terrorist groups.

Saddam's regime was a ticking timebomb.

You would wait for his clandestine terrorist activities to inflict tremendous damage on America, before you would hopefully take action.

Fortunately, President Bush has great vision and understanding of terrorist threats against America, and is acting proactively.

You don't understand what proactive means, do you?
