I think China was going to be their new attack dog. They wouldn't be getting the push back from the citizens if they had China on a collar like they have had the US. The US population was wising up long ago, which is why they decided to "open up China".
I think they know China is not ready to take on the US at this point. They were rushing trying to get ready, but they didn't make it before deep state shit hit the fan. They also realize by now Trump (US) and Putin (Russia) are aligned to stop them.
Japan knows if they are allowed to move on Taiwan without repercussions they will move on Japan next.
THIS!
