South China Sea Conflict

[Voltaire]

Except you have never provided evidence that you are right - you even concede this yourself that you can't prove these points. All you have is conjecture.

...and so it begins.

If the US did go to war with China, the first thing I would notice at work for is none of the computer systems would work as they are all based in China on that sticky out bit in the South China Sea.
Maybe they should rename it the North Philippines Sea of the East Vietnamese Sea.... as the name suggests ownership

Maybe once a week a penguin crosses the road. Other than that it's just the country's longest pit-lane penalty drive-through.

Is it still as prophetically accurate as your 2014 stock market crash?

China has backed its expansive claims with island-building and naval patrols. The US says it does not take sides in territorial disputes, but has sent military ships and planes near disputed islands, calling them "freedom of navigation" operations to ensure access to key shipping and air routes.

So what has it got to do with America? - Why don't they just MTOB for a change? - Leave it to the dis-United Nations to sort out!

America and the Philippines signed a treaty where they would provide some protection.

The UN is about as useful as tits on a bull. China told them to get stuffed!

China will simply copy the USA and refuse to acknowledge any international ruling that doesn't agree with them.

They already have.

The United Nations Security Council "power of veto" refers to the veto power wielded solely by the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council (China, France, Russia, United Kingdom, and United States), enabling them to prevent the adoption of any "substantive" resolution, as well as decide which issues fall under "substantive" title.

Because of the use or threat of the veto, the Security Council could at best have a limited role in certain wars and interventions in which its Permanent Members were involved – for example in Algeria (1954–62); Suez (1956), Hungary (1956), Vietnam (1946–75), the Sino-Vietnamese war (1979), Afghanistan (1979–88), Panama (1989), Iraq (2003), and Georgia (2008)[

It didn't help with the West Philippine Sea.

Part of the problem of course is that China is not a member of the UN.

This has been going on now since before I moved here over four years ago, but has escalated in the last year.

It's getting to the stage now that the Chinese warships are chasing Filipino fishermen from their traditional fishing grounds. The Spratleys have always been claimed by the Philippines and are in the West Philippine sea, NOT the South China sea, as claimed by China. They are a lot closer to the Philippines than they are to China.

I see this as invasion by stealth.

And Japan owns the oil under the spratleys...china can have the land
