4. Although the Chinese Governement has made militaristic noises, it has been
at the forefront of economic cooperation with many Asian countries like India, Japan, Indonesia and Australia.That cooperation has moderated its military ambitions when China became the conciliator between India and Pakistan during their recent flare up.

The other reason I think China needs to be included in this group is the enormous emphasis China places on the education of its youth.This too will be a moderating influence.

They may also be excused for their military posturings when the PNAC crowd calls for the U.S. to become a global hegemon denying countries like China any say in acquiring resources like petroleum.I am sure the Chinese can read English and what they see is a power drunk PNAC out to get them.
