If the US and China were truly enemies, the US wouldn&#39;t allow 250,000 Chinese to study in the US every year. That&#39;s a lot of potential spies.&#xA;2. Similarly, I have a friend who works at the top science and engineering university in Japan. She said there are SO MANY Chinese students, especially at the masters/phd level. Why on earth would Japan be sharing high level scientific knowledge and training with Chinese students if China were really their enemy? &#xA;3. If the US and China were truly rivals, wouldn&#39;t China cut the US off from all rare earths and weapons parts? I mean why sell weapons parts to your enemy??? It&#39;s ridiculous. </html></oembed>
