Do US drone strikes give China the right to attack the USA?

They're about as justified as Saddam's invasion of Kuwait, which was used as justification for the invasion of Iraq.

If China nuked Washington D.C. in response to American warmongering, could any of us, hand on heart, say that it was unjustified?

right now any retaliation taken by any nation is a justified attack, considering America has never once been attacked by foreign nation, but look at all the country's we are in, we are in 150 and country's by force, building bases and deploying troops there, we still have troops left over on the South and North Korean boarder.

They leave there troops there and make the country pay them for protecting them, while they drain all the resources of this nation, for the foreign policy agenda that the UN wants.

NO American wants this police state, Military Industrial Complex yet the only actions our politicians take, a step advancing there cause.

...except for Pearl Harbor... but that's not fair b/c, they knew the Japanese were coming in weeks advance, they just needed a justified reason to go in the World War's for NATO and the creation of the UN to end all wars.

I understand where you're going with this, but Iraq invaded its neighbor exclusively for its natural resources (oil), America's presence across half the globe is an entirely different situation altogether.

If the US invaded Mexico for its.......... If the US invaded Canada for oil and ore, a multinational coalition to push the US out of Canada would be justified, yes.

Wow...History fail, bro.  You do realize that a foreign nation invaded the U.S. and burned down the White House, right?

What war mongering?  Did the US invade Kuwait?  Did the UN not sanction and 50 other nations join in?  Get lost, troll.

Well?  Where have we mongered?  Make a list.  I have no problem pulling your pants down.  Let me give you a hint.  Don't start with Iraq or Afghanistan.  Read up on Vietnam and Korea before you open your pie hole.  Germany and Japan is probably not going to go real well for you either.

China doesn't need to ever attack the US why should they?  We buy lots of things from them.

If they want to fuck the US royally they can call in their markers on the trillion or so dollars of Treasurey bonds they own.

Oh, borrowing to keep the spending going is no problem.  It's just the biggest threat to the security of the US since it leaves us vulnerable to destruction of our currency by the countries that own the debt since we owe so goddamn much.

China holds about 10% of US debt.  This is not a security risk.

1.7 trillion dollars?  So what will the Treasury do if China cashes in?  Run the printing presses?  1.7 trillion is the principle.  How much interest?

That's only two years of Obama deficit.  If they try to call their marker in it will be for dimes on a dollar.  They aren't that stupid.

They don't work like that.  China can't "cash in."  They have to wait until the maturity date for the particular certificates they hold.  They can choose not to buy more when they mature, of course...but then someone else would buy the bonds.

It's not a big deal.
