China increases it's military arsenals while Obama sticks head in sand - again.

Bill Gertz/Wahington Times: China is aggressively building up military forces capable of striking U.S. forces in the western Pacific and elsewhere as part of what the Pentagon calls an array of high-tech "anti-access" missiles, submarines and warplanes in its latest annual report.

The report to Congress on China's military power, released Monday, also warned that China's military is extending its global military reach beyond a weapons buildup to wage regional war with Taiwan and the United States. The report also questioned U.S.-China military exchanges, noting that Beijing is using the visits and meetings for political influence operations and intelligence gathering.

"China is fielding an array of conventionally armed ballistic missiles, ground- and air-launched land-attack cruise missiles, special operations forces, and cyberwarfare capabilities to hold targets at risk throughout the region," the report said.

Editor's notes: last week, it was news that the Chinese have developed a missile specifically designed to target American aircraft carriers. The missile can travel at 12 x the speed of sound and is capable of mid-flight corrections. Are we looking at the end of a free Tiawan ??? And what is Barack "Head in the sand" Obama doing about this ?
