“This is a dispute about fish.”

Not quite:

1. Resources of oil and natural gas
2. China uses disputed islands to build military bases to make it impossible to have open sea lanes, if they so decide.

They have been ruled against by the International Court, with the court stating they have little to no serious claims on islands they have already taken.

No, it isn’t. It’s about military reach and sea control.

Guess you just stayed home, didn’t you?
