Maybe China isn't the nation of international warmongers( like Europe)you all make them out to be? They had ships that sailed to Africa , Middle East centuries ago ( to trade) as well , but had no interest in conquering them.
China as we know it is a young nation, founded in 1949
What are you talking about centuries old Middle East trade routes for?

True...but I'd bet the farm that they have a bio warfare virus that is specifically, genetically targeted to affect Americans. It's like the 'Open Carry' scenario; if you're a ruthless crook, why pay to have a gun when you can just walk right up and cold cock an open carrier and commandeer theirs? Just pick a scrawny guy with a big gun; which is what the US is becoming under Biden.

Centuries ago the Chinese invented Rockets. Took more than 40 years for the West to learn about rockets/ gunpowder, etc .. & other Eastern inventions.
OK, so fireworks with no aiming technique other than up in the air. It took Bill Clinton to give them the US Technology to hit what they aim for .......Gyroscope programming.

The Chinese are nothing but third world savages. Should have listened to MacArthur and annihilated every single one of them with nukes. Their day is still coming.

Someone must have slept through that part of history class where they talked about Genghis Khan
