Actually, I had this same idea myself a few years ago. Back when American presidents had American cojones and weren't shameful girly-men, an American President would have beaten me to it, and China would now be supplicating us for a deal on turning over our island in return for their repudiating the "Nine-Dash Line" bullswoggle about owning the world's seas and oceans.

The problem is sand absorbed the impact. That was why Nimitz required each armed ship to hit a target. In this case it was a bunker. Once they did that they could go out.

Exactly. This is a brilliant and ingenious move by the Chinese. Moreover, during the last 7 years, we have decimated our own military, while China has expanded theirs exponentially. Our own AF Chief of Staff warned last week that our Air Force is woefully inadequate to compete with new Chinese fighter aircraft in the numbers they are producing them.

And most Americans simply don't care. They overeat, they have their EBT card, they watch their internet porn, talk on their Obamaphone, and they vote for Democrats.

They will win their bid to make the South China Sea a “Mare Nostrum” and control trade—strangle the oil shipments to Japan and dominate Asia. A bold plan, I will give them that. With Obama in power they have 20 months to make these bases secure and launch new ships. The people to get worried should be the Vietnamese. They beat the USA in their war—lets see how good they will be with the Chinese? lets see if their will be any anti-war demonstrations in Peking? What Chinese Movie Stars will go to Hainoi? None.
