No, Michael, the last cold war was inevitable; this one will be limited because you will do as I say, 1) economic engagement (trade and investment; carrots for compliance) 2) military containment through a) collective security and b) deterrence (sticks). China will be constrained into productivity and thereby avoid than foolish self-destructive adventurism. Reminder: China hasn’t fought a war since 1979. What makes you think they want one now?!? You have all benefited greatly from Chinese hard work. More gratitude, less attitude, for your own benefit. Is “thank you” so tough to say?
