It all about protecting US interests, whether it's addressing an emerging Chinese military, keeping trading routes open, hunting pirates, or whathaveyou. But I'm a betting man, so my money is on "emerging Chinese military."

The way the other countries are afraid of attacking US home land cause "guns outnumber people", China is as tough to attack cause their people outnumber out bullets. Mutual assured destruction really.
