Ramming an EP-3, denying port calls, harassing carriers, and issuing inflammatory statements certainly don't do wonders for Chinese relations, but they are hardly the sorts of actions that are going to lead to an erosion of security on a scale your talking about...mere pot shots. A coalition of major and minor powers hasn't emerged in the wake of these incidents, and China's economic growth and military modernization proceed apace.
