You make yourself sounding a bit cocky there, don't you think, mapuc?

The point of the parade was to show that they no longer depend on other nations delivering them high tech weaponry. They produce it themselves now.

And the third Vietnam war showed their willigness to take high own losses to win on the military battlefield. They delivered the Vietnamese quite a punishing - and that was thirty years ago,. with old hardware and old military dogmas.

The massacre on the Tienanmen square, killing around 10.000 as recent research says, shows their willingness to play it brutal, if they see the need.

China no longer just copies technical innovations of others. It now is a major source of especially computer and high tech innovation. Huawei is just one example. Foxconn as another.

Reasons enough to be worried. They are spreading thei influence not just by credit-lending and civilian harbours around the globe where they could supply military units as well. In Africa they build more and more military installations as well. Their determination in the South Chinese sea is beyond doubt. They create facts there. Since years. Convincingly enough that the US does nothing to seriously trying to stop them from what they are doing, although it violates international law.

CHina has recently changed from an autocratic system to a full-blown dictatorship. I have no idea how dictator and "party" sell (sic!) their "communism" to the citizens of the "People's Republic". There is so much dialectics in it that Newspeak cannot even describe it properly. Brain wash and re-education like with the Red Khmer in Cambodia comes to mind, certainly much more "civilised". I take it brute force and total surveillance are of course good arguments to "believe".
China literally owns Africa, and is able to strangle the US by the latter's debts.

And China will stop a nothing, there is no reluctancy exploiting citizens or the world, no social adaption, no dipomacy other than for exploiting and strategic reasons, it is all relentlessly planned. Clinton really opened Pandora's box around 2000. If someone read Liu Cixin's "Three Suns" trilogy, he will know what i mean. It may not be Cixin's opinion, but a warning.
