War game suggests Chinese invasion of Taiwan would fail at a huge cost to US, Chinese and Taiwanese militaries. At least two US aircraft carriers lie at the bottom of the Pacific and Chinas modern navy, which is the largest in the world, would be in shambles. A war over Taiwan could leave a victorious US military in as crippled a state as the Chinese forces it defeated.

Twenty-five years ago, bipartisan American consensus about China was built on hope, spin and money. Many believed in the potential of capitalist principles to move the Chinese Communist Party into a more open, less aggressive posture. But now the U.S. finds itself in a very different place, constrained to be far more honest about what China represents. Enter the new China hawks who look at the country with jaundiced eyes.
