I wouldnt be insane to say its harmless, it certainly deserves atention, China is, to all intents and porposes, a Totalitarian State with power hunger, and we dont know for 100% certainty what its foreign policy plans are, however, its also no reason to go to DEFCON 1 and start sounding AA Alerts, and start building bunkers.

I doubt America would ever attempt an invasion of Europe
