It is to be hoped that some Japanese Admiral on one of these damned things, after some more ill-considered exuberance, doesn't ruefully rub his chin in a decade or three and say something to the effect of: "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."
It won't be the tired old clapped out American Empire that he'll be talking about, but instead a youthful vigorous independent nation which is already fed up with Japanese and American activites of yon ilk.
Let's hope, too, that the wretched Blaircraft carriers don't get sucked into such a geopolitical vortex and morass.
