Well said.
China leading? In what? Technology? They're borrowing everything they can from Russia. In human rights? In censhorship maybe. Culturally, America is dominant. The "American Dream" where a poor person aspires to enrich themselves financially is now a worldwide one, among countless other American born and bred traditions.
While most battles are fough politically and economically today, don't kid yourself that military power isn't still the hallmark of dominance. It's an absolute necessity and always will be.
