``We advise the U.S. side not to underestimate the Chinese side's ability to safeguard its development rights and interests. Don't say we didn't warn you!" the People's Daily said in a commentary titled "United States, don't underestimate China's ability to strike back." The publication is the official newspaper of the Communist Party of China.

The phrase "Don't say we didn't warn you" was only used two other times in history by the People's Daily -- in 1962 before China's border war with India and ahead of the 1979 China-Vietnam War.
