You think they don't attack us militarily is because it's not in their nature as opposed to a massive military and nuclear weapons?
I'm not sure why you think the Chinese are just waiting for the opportunity to attack us at all.
Why do you believe this?
Because that's human nature. The strong conquer the weak. It's been true for all of history and will be true for all times to come.
I often hear people make grandiose claims about what human nature is. I'm not sure why people believe them. There are lots of people stronger than me when I go to the grocery store, and yet they do not attack me. And there are lots of old ladies there that I could probably beat up, and yet I have not conquered them.
There is no universal rule about how human beings have to act in all cases. There are many examples of strong nations co-existing with and trading with weaker nations, to the benefit of both.
What you have stated is simply not true at all.
