Good stuff, if people are naive enough to think that the flow of trade between China and her rivals is enough to stop her from going to war this kind of action and rhetoric should help them see the light. Countries are run by people who have history, emotion and are many times irrational. War will come, I hope that people will wake up..

If Asia gives into China, Asia will starve. I live in Asia and no one wants the corrupt clique in Beijing to enslave them.

The administrator of this site doesn't seem to realize how much the rest of Asia hates mainland Chinese people.

Asia will fight back.

I'm well aware of it, and I mention it from time to time. It's also
complicated by the fact that many of the people in other Asian
countries hate each other as well, although China is accomplishing the
impossible by getting them to unify. However, I think that all of
these countries would be happy to stay out of it as long as possible
and just watch as China and the US shoot it out.

Your mentioning that "Asia will starve" is also important. China,
Vietnam and the Philippines all depend on the fish from the South
China Sea to feed their people, which makes losing South China Sea
fishing an existential threat for all three countries.

Which country are you from?

Shinzo Abe belongs to an imperialistic religious cult, Nippon Kaigi. This Shinto cult wants to restore "Great Japan". That means a return to openly worshiping the Japanese Emperor as a living god. The group wants a return to the Meiji era, or, even worse, 1930s Showa. They want the country to be centered around on the imperial house, the kokutai ideology. Kokutai means the best possible principles of Japanese state and society. Now, kokutai under Emperor Taisho meant democracy; under Hirohito (Showa), it meant the Emperor as a living god and the end of democracy, no freedom of the press, and no real political opposition.

Nippon Kaigi ideology adheres to the worst interpretation. Abe's party won the elections this month with landslides results. Abe now has the 2/3 majority in both houses he needs to change the constitution, namely Article 9 (the anti-war clause). Most Japanese support Article 9 and don't want to return to the Showa era. Shinzo Abe, the grandson of a war criminal, doesn't really believe in democracy. He is going to ignore the majority and drop Article 9.

This will make it difficult for Koreans to cooperate with Japan. But the Korean government doesn't care what Koreans think. The Education Minister called his own countrymen "pigs and dogs" just a week ago when talking with reporters about the poor economic situation in this country. So, the Korean government will most likely cooperate with Japan and fight China. With America on Korea's side, Korea will win.

Koreans do not want war, but China does. China has polluted itself and now it needs fresh water, fresh air, and farm land to survive. They must attack or die. Asia must fight back or we will die (and Korean women will become sex slaves for the Chinese).
