from the Ownership-is-nine-tenths-of-the-law dept.

China has sent armed vessels and fishing boats into Indonesian waters fueling tensions between the nations in another move by China to try to claim ownership of the region. With China now deliberately sending vessels into the waters of other countries, their actions may be seen as the start of armed hostilities. For years China has made political and financial maneuvers to claim control over other nations through debt and intimidation. Indonesia has refused to negotiate with China on the matter as they see the actions as China invading their territory. With both sides bringing both sky and sea vehicles into the region the outcome of this issue may be a deciding point to determine whether or not China will be pushed out of the region. While the ruling by the UN is very clear about the region, China refuses to accept it.

China appears to have forgotten why the UN was formed in the first place. Japan learned a hard lesson in 1945.

    Those camps in Xinjiang are voluntary vocational training centers [cnn.com]. Get it right!

    What a fucking idiotic comment. And the idiots that mod this "insigtful" are fucked up in the head too.

    Whatever you want to say about China's re-education camps and any brainwashing going there, it's probably not the same as executing millions of people in carbon-monoxide gas chambers and burning their bodies. Right?? Fucking hell.

      That particular point might have been out of scale, but the sentiment is correct. China is Nazi Germany in the late 1930's. They have been gearing up for a confrontation with the West (and their allies Japan and South Korea) for decades; anyone who has been reading Congressional whitepapers on the subject will know that. They have a national ideology of Volk and a drive for lebensraum. They have been cultivating the 300 million ethnic Chinese throughout the ASEAN countries (Sudetenland Germans, anyone?). They have been building bases in the South China Sea and roping Africa into a new colonial structure. Their One Belt, One Road Initiative has been trying to do the same through Central Asia. Chinese have been infiltrating Siberia to secure its resources for the Han.

      That, ladies and gentlemen, is the real WWIII. Iran and Syria and the entire rest of the Middle East are a pitiful sideshow.

      Not burning them, no. Can't profit from the organ harvesting if you do that.

      Oh shut the fuck up you tv watching, windows-using moron. The fucking Jews weren't gassed, you asshat. They died from typhus and starvation caused by the bombing of supply lines by the allies. The international capitalist Jews and their gentile conspirators sent their slave states, the US, the soviet union and the UK into Germany to stop Germany from fully realizing national socialism.

      So hitler writes down he wants to kill all jews, then gets to power and spends 100Mjoules of energy for each body burned, during wartime, to, dunno, erase the traces or whatever. Bodies used as lampshades yay, fertilizer nay. Yet another strange occurrence in the wacky world wars.

    That's a lie. Where are the gas chambers and mass graves? They would be visible by satellite.
