US preparing for a conflict with China

Pentagon ‘hedge’ strategy targets China](http://www.washtimes.com/national/20060316-114755-3306r.htm)

*The Pentagon is moving strategic bombers to Guam and aircraft carriers and submarines to the Pacific as part of a new “hedge” strategy aimed at preparing for conflict with China, Pentagon officials said yesterday. *

Since strenghtening Alliances in Asia is a key part of this effort, I wonder where Pakistan would figure in it if a confrontation escalates?

Pakistanis will do what they do best: eat their junk food/snacks, enjoy the live war footage on tv, and take days off from school & work. Some will fly their kites to make up for last 'basants'.

Washington Times is reliable?

I've heard Washing Post is pretty accurate in its editorials as to what awaits, but no such endorsement of WT.

US doesn't need to do that. Us has already has 10% (about 1400) of its nuclear tipped ICBMs pointed at just one country. Guess which one is it. No not Bhutan.

Re: US preparing for a conflic with China

US has even better strategy to contain China.. Its called India.
