You're forgetting one important thing: the Chinese don't much care about human rights. They would bypass such trivialities as ieds or suicide bombers, and they would have no need to report things like "war crimes", "atrocities", torture or other malfeasance....why? Because they can't be bothered with human rights when they've got 1.5 billion mouths to feed...they don't have the luxury of being scrupulous. They will wash over the country like a swarm of ants...if 100 die in an ied explosion, there's 10,000 right behind them in full battle frenzy.
First, they will secure every oil spigot in the country. Second, their engineers would instruct their air force in the quickest, most efficient way to bomb a mountain into a molehill. Third, they'll dig a trench 10 feet wide and 2 miles long and bury every sumbitch in the country with a beard and an ak47 in it. Fourth, they will extend the Great Wall south, arm it with laser turrets every 500 yards, surround the entire country and cut it off from land invasion within a week. Fifth, they will shoot down every American military/reconnaissance satellite in space. Sixth, they will take the oil to feed, house and entertain their 1.5 billion, announce an embargo unless the rest of the world pays 1500% tariffs on oil imports, and game over.
No human rights in China: It's their secret weapon to world domination.
