Will america go to war with china within the next 10 years?

I know it is impossible to really answer this question but I want your opinions. I have already done research about this topic but it isn't really up to date. In my opinion the world is getting pretty peaceful with the exceptions of Syria and Egypt and other civil wars that we don't know about. But america is leaving Afghanistan, it isn't really bad in Korea right now. There really are no signs for a war for america anytime soon. Do you agree? Do you think there will be any wars in America's future (5-10 years?) I am a wannabe marine hope to enlist after I finish college so as immature as It sounds I want to get in the ****. Lets not be children and get all butt hurt about that comment. It's been my dream ever since I've read helmet for my pillow by Robert leckie. But do you think america has any wars in the near future?

Thanks.

    Don't kid yourself, the US will have some fighting to do within the next few years. There are so many potential flash points in the world, it is hard to predict where it will be. Also, it depends on what the President and Congress think are worth fighting about.

    If you are truly a warrior at heart, you will have the opportunity to do your part in the BIG war within 10-15 years, more or less. The little conflicts that may pop up before then will help prepare you. You could be one of the heroes. And they won't ignore or insult you like they did with the Vietnam vets, or even Iraq and Afghanistan vets. If you survive the war, you will be respected the rest of your life [unless of course you do something to disgrace yourself].

    There is no better time to think of joining the Marines, if you are a warrior. After college will be perfect. And those like me who stay behind [I'm too old, and female] will be grateful.

    My guess is yes and probably it will start in Africa.

    The USA currently is bombing several African countries, weekly drone strikes in Mali and Somalia for instance as well as being involved in several other African nations with it`s military,

    China has made huge investments in Africa, dams, roads, bridges, hospitals, schools, factories and so on to gain access to African produce and materials and America I assume wants to control that flow of goods and the cash that goes with it.

    America is currently attacking several countries, I cannot personally remember a time when it was not at war somewhere in the world.

    I think our next war will be with North Korea. Then China. China looks to be stirring up trouble with the disputed Islands. That could trigger war.

    No. It would be a war of attrition and both sides know it. Both the Chinese and the Americans would know better. Perhaps some sabre rattling between the two, some trade disputes and tariffs but I highly doubt that these two nations would come to blows.

    No

    China has to many Allies and Russia.. Russia and USA are not dumb enough to stir each other up... USA im sure will only go to War with small countrys who they can easily beat.

    I don't think so. First of all, China OWNS the United States. By buying trillions of dollars of our national debt, China has BOUGHT America fair and square---free and clear.

    The U.S will blow their supposedly "lost" nukes on some country, and blame it on another country, and go to war with the country they blamed
