How do you know we don't feel threatened?
Wouldn't America feel threatened if China puts this many forces around you?
The last time any country tried to do that to the US was during the 1962 Cuban Missile crisis. And Americans successfully pushed back the Russians.
1. I just know those things, because I am the Air Force Brat, I've been observing this little waltz for 58 years, and I've learned to listen instead of talking all the time.
2. Nah, the only thing we are afraid of is the BHO team and their incompetence.
3. Moving ICBMs 90 miles off the Chinese coast would be provocative, and we wouldn't do that, even in the "cowboy era" of the early 60s, we didn't smoke the Russians or the Cubans?????? so we know how to play it kool....
China is welcomed to RimPac, if anybody in this country was "afraid" of China, that wouldn't be happening. We're trying to be pro-active in showing good faith, and nobody in China who is in the know is "afraid" of the US. However we will defend our true friends if they are threatened by neighborhood "bully's", just the way we are, but if our friends ignored our warnings to "not start something" and were the "aggressors", they would be on their own.
That's why the Captain of the Cowpens was relieved, no stupidity, cowboy acts, or incompetence will be tolerated, given the present circumstances, soldiers, sailors, and airmen are expected to be "professional" at all times......another act of good faith.
