America:
Bring back American industry now.
Stop sending jobs to China.
China: flush with money, full of nationalistic pride.
And communist.
Somehow, we have forgotten that, as has much of the world. They all love “the bitch dollar” (figuratively speaking) but communists aren’t really supposed to say that.
The US and our allies defeated the entire world during WWII sooo, we own it... what we do with it is our business...
It’s one thing to claim a bunch of uninhabited reefs. It’s another to claim an island with 1.3 million people who don’t want to be a part of you. This isn’t going anywhere.
If they keep this up they'll unite not only all of asia against them but the entire eastern hemisphere.
Why not - the Chinese have already ‘reconsidered’ who owns Tibet, and they’re ‘reconsidering’ who owns Taiwan and India.
Japan, you’re next; not just Okinawa, but the four main islands, too - Kyushu, Shikoku, Honshu, and Hokkaido.
Then, no doubt, Hawaii and maybe California.
Time for Japan to have nukes.
I don't think they will consider that complete until they have a decisive military victory to point to. The problem is that China might be creating a dangerous alliance against it, that it cannot handle. Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, South Korea, and India could cause some real problems for China.
Oil is China's weak spot. 90% of its oil imports must cross the Indian Ocean, and then transit the many straits and the South China Sea. China's Navy cannot hope to overcome the sea and air power than such an alliance could muster over those areas. And if defeated at sea, the Chinese would be forced to defend land routes to that oil, a thousand miles through the ‘stans and the Himalayas.
So Japan’s top newspaper should publish an article about re-establishing the vassal state of Manchouko...
Just saying...
... but maybe I haven't checked for a long time ...
