The meaning of words changes over time. The meaning of decimate has changed from its original meaning. Sorry you can't handle that fact.
Oh, and that is not to mention that the original meaning of "decimate" was "tithe," not "kill on in ten soldiers."

My original comment stands. China is weak compared to US. No war necessary, restructuring in favour of US WILL TAKE PLACE.
