    This military solution is not effective and I think China will not withdraw from its sea borders but the America military bases in Philippine make Beijing more resolute, unswerving and careful about security of its territory and borders.

    America must be in caution about provocative movements close to the sensitive area of China realm.

    In my opinion, if America government has a legal protest and documented claims to China, it must offer his protests officially to United Nation Organization so that this authority resolve the problem based on law.

    US actions are based on law. They sail in international waters and make alliances with whomever they want. Unless of course you are going to make the case that China owns everything and that they also rule on who may or may not make alliances.

    We have interests in those areas as we do all over the world and have for over a century. The Filipino military love us. Real stong alliance there. We would defend them against China if it came to it.

    Stopping China from owning the entire southern hemisphere. Unless you disagree in which case, you need to make the case as to why we ought not to just formally tell China they can do whatever they wish and we will be their allies.

    O come now let's be real. China doesn't give 2 hoots about the what the UN says. The only time China, the USA or Russia cares about what the UN says is if the UN happens to agree at the moment.

    The UN is nothing more than a 3rd world debating society and every once in a while one of the big 3 will toss them a bone.

    (entire) that would really be a pretty big accomplishment, now how would they hold that ground without those country's rebelling constantly against them?

    Don't have to, just blockade everybody which, is what they are trying to do by claiming sovereignty over international waterways.

    A well established hegemony in the western hemisphere will always hamper the development of the other half mostly if conflict of interest in terms of commerce is there. The aim is for control and wealth and china is struggling breaking international norms giving footholds to the mighty ones who are controlling the globe right now. China will not start a war it could not win, well for the meantime it holds the west on a leash because of economic constraints, but they will never cross that invisible line where war will become the last and ultimate option.

    I thought it was Call of Duty until the night vision stopped playing. Your lasts pictures were of HALO so i thought maybe this was now a game review thread.

    No?

    Yes, that's how it goes when what they do is just flexing muscles and spitting, calculative as what they may say inching towards futility hindered by sovereignty and international laws. They wish to expand their territories for reasons of self sustaining I suppose not really for leadership for no dialogues whatsoever has been made to make the SCS countries rally behind them instead china bullied the countries involved. Australia is quite interested so as the US of A we will see what will happen next.

    Can you imagine what would happen if the United States made videos like this, or had air craft antagonizing ships, or annexing another countries land?

    Putin is an absolute genius and is pushing hard while the liberal left is still in control of the west, I am curious who long he continues to push. Putin is gambling and he is damn good at it
