Each comment GP made corresponds to quote following the comment. i.e.:
>This one could apply to our relationship with China maybe?
>> Yes, we quarrel with the French. The members of a family argue pretty freely inside the home ; We quarrel with our allies, We don't quarrel with our enemies -- we fight them.
With that said, I wouldn't interpret the US relationship with China as one of alliance nor as one of enmity (yet).
