This is true. It is likely for the US to have a serious conflict with China in the near future.  Intel reports show the possiblity.  Also I might add you could be looking at an economic war.  China is holding on the 1.43 Trillion US Dollars in thier Fed reserve.  That's gotta be around 10% of the US dollars out there.  If they were to devest themselves of all of that at once, it would tank the US economy.  Recently China made statements that are pretty clear about there intentions to let a lot of those US dollars go.
