They'd not only have to contend with and defeat the largest, most well-trained and powerful navy in the world, but would then have to muster the astronomical logistical capacity to attack the mainland where they'd also have to contend with the largest, most well-equipped and most experienced army, air force, and marine corps in the world.
Ironically, the biggest threat to this country is an all out cyber war.

I can't see them ever considering armed action but financial pressure on the global markets...now that could well be another matter.
