However I think it would be foolish for the US to pull out of any asian countries now or in the future. China is a dog on a leash with the US present. But if the US leaves that dog is going to go nuts. Right now the only thing keeping China from invading Japan, Taiwan and probubly even South Korea is the United States. China is a growing super power and wants to increase its influence. China does not want democracy to spread any further and they want to expand their empire both litterily in land but also militarily. Disagree? Then why is China building up such military might? China wants to build air carrier's they have Nuclear subs they constantly provoke Japan. The chinese Government even made a game a few years ago in which players played as Chinese soldiers invading Japan. The US needs to remain in place and in a supportive roll accross asia pacific. Their needs to be competition to speak buisness wise. if China is allowed to rule over the area as an unrivalled super power then they could pressure all the countries around them into doing as they please. But right now countries can choose, a great relationship with China or the United States or in some cases both. But if the US left all the countries would be under the dictatorship of a communist super power. |
Actually, they're stopped by their complete lack of capability. Their Navy is really only up to the task of supporting a month or two of combat before they'd run out of fuel. Considering the massive embargoes that would also occur, this means there's no way to support such invasions and a huge economic disensentive to even try. The U.S. presence in Asia isn't really stopping them at all. What it does do, however, is create the incentive to continue building up militarily.
You do not have the right to never be offended.
