Why are CCP loyalists so afraid of Obama? Will the CCP try to test the

US warships head for South China Sea after standoff
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article58...
A potential conflict was brewing last night in the South China Sea
after President Obama dispatched heavily armed American destroyers to
the scene of a naval standoff between the US and China at the weekend.
Mr Obama’s decision to send an armed escort for US surveillance ships
in the area follows the aggressive and co-ordinated manoeuvres of five
Chinese boats on Sunday. They harassed and nearly collided with an
unarmed American vessel.
Washington accused the Chinese ships of moving directly in front of
the US Navy surveillance ship Impeccable, forcing its crew to take
emergency action, and to deploy a high-pressure water hose to deter
the Chinese ships. Formal protests were lodged with Beijing after the
incident.
On a day that Mr Obama and his senior officials met the Chinese
Foreign Minister, Yang Jiechi, in Washington, Beijing showed no sign
of backing down. Its military chiefs accused the unarmed US Navy ship
of being on a spying mission.
...
It's a test of will. The more the United States respond to such a
test, the more deeper in debt the U.S. becomes as the U.S. has a much
longer way to go to confront such a test. The smart thing to do is
for the U.S. stay farther out from the Chinese coastline.
