  If China will be considered as the enemy of the world just because of it's
communism, that's ridiculous. Are you going to initiate another cold war? I do
not mean support the communism. But as long as China do not hurt you, you do
not have to right to consider China as your enemy! Western countries have
tried different ways of blocking the development of China and some of them
are still doing so. I hate to see this. But that's understandable. No country
want others to be stronger than itself. USA do not want to see Japan become
too strong. Japan is afraid of China's development. And again China is resent
of USA's super power. When the eastern Germany get rid of communism and united
into the free western Germany, USA worried a strong German much more than 
celebrating the victory of western freedom.

  That's a prediction of somebody who hate China and dreams of chaos occur in
China every day and night. He is the one "Wei2 Kong3 Tian1 Xia4 Bu4 Luan4"!
Your predicted "two" possible outcomes. In fact is "One" outcome, "two" steps.
First the CCP die abruptly, second chaos and civil war occur after CCP die.
Just like what's happening in the Yugoslavia and USSR. I definitely do not want
to see such an outcome. A more possible outcome is China will go the same path
as Taiwan had gone: peaceful transition.

  I do not like the idea the China become the strongest and crash down all
opponents. But I definitely hope China to become the strongest. But not to 
become the world leader. We already have a world leader called USA today and
it indeed is crashing down all of it's weak opponents now. I do not want China
to be a second such world leader to replace USA. I only want China to be
strong enough to drag USA down from the "world leader" chair.

  You are right that if you are against the world, you are in trouble. The USA
is not in trouble at all. Not because the USA is not against the world, but
because the whole world DARE NOT be against the USA.   Just look at today's
world. When USA is abusing Iraq just like the LA police abuse the black man
because of a minor guilty, who in the world dares to give a damn shit? Not
even China who have the veto in the UN.
