lol.
First, China shot down a weather satellite that was no longer working.
Second, they only did what the US and Russia already did.
Third, while the US signed a treaty saying space was not anyone countries property, and while the treaty agreed that no one would develop Star Wars type weapons, the US has continued to develop and test this type of weapon.
Fourth, China has nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver them to the US.
Fifth, China has Three times the military that the US does, as well as over three times the population the US does.
While the US might consider attacking China, if they do, it would be at a considerable cost to the US mainland.

I am a Chinese that live in Beijing and I don't understand why do people just love exaggerated things. First, check the news carefully, the weather satelit that China destroyed was our own, not the US. Secondly, China is moving towards pacifism, we are now spending a lot of money trying to improve the people's lives. So please stop asking ignorant questions like this. The US is not the world police, you can't just go to someone's home and kill them just because they are improveing.

Because China's a huge, scary powerful country with a standing army of 1 million and a population of 1 billion. Do the math. They have the same capablities we do and the manpower to back it up. I agree with the WWIII comment. Plus, we've already got Iraq & Afghanistan(thank you, Bush!) on our hands. Do you think we could stand another war? Ha, ha, ha...

I dunno...maybe it's China's intercontinental ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads that causes us to pause. Or perhaps its the fact that they outnumber us almost 5 to 1. Could it be that they make virtually of our important stuff...like the toys for our Happy Meals? Maybe its all those things.
Good Luck!
Glad I could help!

We don't have nearly enough troops for that, and the troops we do have are too busy in the Middle East.

Because our superb vocabulary would confuse them. That is extremely apparent if you are from China.
