The plethora of military bases all around China and in the pacific suggest otherwise.
It's not necessary to go to outright war anymore. If one can demonstrate that you have overwhelming military superiority and that any conflict would be suicide for the underdog then it just comes down to political manouevering.
Just look at Korea. The man in charge makes lots of political gestures for the sake of appearances for his country citizens but the reality is that the USA could annhililate them in the blink of an eye. Korea knows this and so has no choice but to comply with USA dictats. Of course the USA understands that the fake political story must keep going so they don't humiliate Kim Jon and support that position whilst in reality being in total control.
The same will undoubtedly happen in China. The military threat the USA poses is astronomical and China will ultimately have no choice but to comply. If the leaders refuse they will be "managed" and alternative leaders found who will play the part. And so it goes on, right around the Middle East and Asia as has been happening for some years now.
Morrocco, Libya, Egypt, etc etc
The USA is slowly working its way around and towards the remaining significant powers and puts itself in a position to cripple the primary resources of those countries until they submit.
Doubtless those threatened will themselves threaten back with their biological warfare viruses as we are now seeing.
If you put a tiger into a corner, that's what happens.
The USA wants to be the global superpower and realises that it can not afford to sit and wait until all these Eastern countries have the same technologies as they have. So it's obvious they will act preemptively, which imo is what they have been doing the past decade.
