Japan, but since they no longer fear us enough to jump off cliffs China has plenty of room to catch up. Plus we sent Tom Cruise in as a Samuri to stir up dissent.

Depends on which generation you ask. The Greatest Generation will tell you Japan.

China prays for us. They pray for us to fail.

Japan of course. No realistic comparison.

It was Japan but soon China

Japan, certainly for a good half-century until WWII.
But since then, China poses more and more of a threat to us. Considering their support for the Communist factions during the Korean War and Vietnam, I'd say they're definitely a bigger threat.

Historically speaking casualties between the US and Japan were heavier in WWII than the casualties between the US and China in the Korean War which is why I answered Japan though I'd say animosity between China and the US is worse now.

Intriguing question, shaz.

Japan kill more of us.

Do you mean throughout history or specifically in modern times?

Everything is made in china, you agree right?

I say Japan only due to war and lost of life.

China is our advisory only because they are so large. IMO

Very thought provoking series of questions.

You used the past tense in this question, therefore I believe it was Japan.

Wasn't China one of our allies during WWII? I do think we fought a mainly Chinese client state during Korean War and the Vietnam war so it does seem complicated. Yes Russia, then the USSR was involved as well still..... I'll have to think about it.

Japan actually owns a ton of the US debt. Also, while we get a lot of consumer goods from china they are cheaper versions of what the US can make. Japan at least has original technology we need.

Since 1945? China.

I would argue Japan
