Those little islands are Not CUBA. US will do nothing if there is a fight for those tiny islands between japan and china. The US did everything they could to prevent the USSR from reaching Cuba, an island that is c ommunist and does not even belong to the US, but they were willing to go to war over an island to maintain the Monroe doctorine? US has no business being there - treaty or no treaty. all terroritial disputes are created because of historical conquests of those disputed islands. It was the only way to possess territory - by forcefully taking it. So now, it would seem that it is still the only way to take those tiny islands by China.

All forms of government WILL try to keep sensitive information from the public eye - Communists or otherwise. This action falls under the motto of "for the national interest"
Those princlings kids of senior government officials studying overseas at the expense of commoners are disgusting and they should be ashamed, especially in a country like China where shame is a huge dishonor to have.
Wen...he pretends to be so humble....even more of a weasel now that it's been revealed his family fortune is in the ranks of Bill Gates! Disgusting!!!!!!

...that's too funny! I guess in the closet of the carrier washington there is a banner of war that they raise when they attack another country.

"Finally, the girls are allowed to dress as they like in a “free wear” round, provided that the outfit has been approved by the panel beforehand. So, no string bikinis, then?"
That comment about string bikinis was written by the author on this story?

Follow international law? Who really obeys international laws? Certainly the US does not and it's allies - Can/Brits/Aussi, who why countries like Russia and China should? International laws are laws created to benefit the established rich nations of the West.
sake-english-teacher-town: ...."sanctions?" lol....I take it you are not international relations or economic student if you suggest the USA and/or Japan can place sanctions on China.
