Does this scare anyone else?
(CNN) -- China's modernizing military will make it a more muscular player in world events, a U.S. Defense Department report says.
China's developing capabilities "will increase Beijing's options for military coercion to press diplomatic advantage, advance interests or resolve disputes," the Pentagon says in its annual report to Congress on China.
The Pentagon says that Beijing remains preoccupied with military contingencies in the Taiwan Strait -- but adds that the Chinese military is also improving its ability to win possible conflicts over resources or territory. (Watch how China has become a modern, high-tech adversary )

nope, not at all just Bush propaganda to scare the people. He thinks things like this will make people vote for his party.
We are much more concerned with "military contingencies" than they are.
