  1. KT, look at the history of amphibious assault. China is not a military superpower. Their last major conflict was with Vietnam (now an ally of the US). They were trounced. On the border with India, they have been severely trounced. China is a true "paper tiger" as defined by Mao. Read the little red book. Another thing to consider is the WWII situation vis-a-vis Taiwan. Some of our leaders wanted to invade Taiwan so we could more easily support China. The only problem was this invasion would have required a bigger invasion force than the D-Day landings. Just think on that. China has no experience or the material resources to mount such an invasion. And that is assuming that Taiwan has no allies. China is the paper tiger. For better or worse, the US has been involved in wars, many large, from the end of WWII. NO other country has. When we went into Kuwait to throw out the Iraqis, we had 350K US troops and a total of 500K coalition troops. The battle lasted three days. Don't forget, the Iraqis were the fourth largest army in the world, with a decade of combat experience. China has none of that. In the second Gulf War we went in with 160K or so US troops. We wiped out the national army of the fourth largest army in the world in two weeks. Russia, and China have done nothing like this. They are both paper tigers. The US is the only country that has been in the fight continuously. Even in Syria, there was a well-armed grouped of Russian mercenaries. They were wiped out, with few, or no, US casualties.
