You mean the Chinese Communist Party "Leaders" are irked that we don't buy into the phony Nine Dash Line Map and stealing from weaker neighbors and lying about it ? Well, Boy Howdy.... The ladies at the Red Lips Club will miss those short time sailor boys but hey they can always catch up on Chairman the Waxman Mao's Little Red Book. Still full of much wisdom for the masses. Sorry Hong Kong may the umbrella movement live on.
Discussions of arming S Korea and Japan.....the protocols following the area was never signed off by China post WWII......one reason for the Korean war....and technically it is just a cease fire currently. The international boundaries are not part of any China agreement.
Obama....no problem right? China steals our inventions/IP, hacks our systems, floods our markets with cheap junk made by Chinese slaves, etc. No problem, huh Obama.
Vietnam isn't a little further south of Hong Kong... it's a little further west. The USS John C. Stennis passed Vietnam when they left Singapore on their way to the Philippines... Vietnam would have been a little further north as they passed. I don't think a 116,000 ton carrier is going to make the 90 km journey from the Gulf of Tonkin up the Red River Delta to Hanoi.
