Well, I think that if China was the 'behind the scenes' player you think it is, there would be no reason for the massive military buildup going on there.
And the old notion about trying to be a 'gorilla' of any type is not relevant in a world where a guy in a cave with a few thousand followers can effect change and damage as happened on 9/11 and in the laws of our nation thereafter.
