Assertive china promoting ultra-nationalism, to what end?!

The Chinese one party government, having taken religious freedoms and freedom of speech, has promoted ultra-nationalism for the masses as an alternative, to keep the masses occupied and in check. The nationalistic indoctrination of the nation is made possible by state controlled message in schools, including hong kong schools in the near future, and state controlled media. The consequence of this highly controlled propaganda has been an inflated sense of superiority, and is bringing the region closer to war. Keeping in mind that most wars are instigated by ultra-nationalist, or ultra-religious, as the easiest ways to rally the masses.

The Chinese military is edging closer to the leavers of political power, and as the economy slows down their eyes would be on the outside world to distract the Chinese people and keep them a step away from revolting against their own government.

The close economic ties, and the global recession, will likely prevent imminent war between china and Japan, but if the trend continues, it's almost impossible to imagine china and japan not testing their military muscle against each other. The united states,  with its defense treaty with Japan, will face hard choices if that were to happen.

The silver lining is that given the current American military superiority, it's almost better to have the conflicts and skirmishes now, instead of later, to humble the Chinese masses and show them that their leaders have inflated their military capabilities.

The Japanese may feel that in order to deter nuclear china, they may need a military buildup of their own, and minimize their dependence on the united states for defense.

The Obama administration was right in prioritizing the far east in its defense budget, as the next war, or mini-wars, are most likely to occur over there.
