Heck..China's building artificial Islands in the disputed zones...here's the airplane runway on one of those Islands....When in operation it will be able to "accommodate almost any type of aircraft that China would want to land"....Before this construction China lacked the refueling and resupply capabilities to reach the southern part of the South China Sea.... These Islands are being seen as part of an attempt to assert China's territorial claims by establishing physical facts in the water.

How long have they been building this island? And we are only talking about it now?

“Hey Frank, ya know that garage that guy built in your back yard?”

“Um, yeah?”

“Well, it looks like he is going to park his car in it.”

“What! How dare he!!! Call 911. Where’s my gun!?”
