Might> Right... On the roads in PH anyway.

On topic.... China has already stated that they will not accept the UN's conclusion, which is no surprise as they know they are out of line and making...

China needs to acknowledge that they are not alone in this region and that their neighbors value their territorial integrity. The arrogant claims of indisputable sovereignty couldn't be further from...

BBC News - China-Philippines navy spat captured on camera

China will lie through their teeth about sovereignty and back it up with force because it serves their interests to dominate this area. They have a plan which they would love to accelerate by baiting...

The tail's still wagging the dog in China I see. These pompous generals have got to make themselves seem indispensable and appear to enjoy the propaganda war.

^ I like my dictators bloodied and dying, it sends a strong message to the next generation of wannabe abusers. Gaddafi's mental problems were ultimately his downfall; he actually capitulated shortly...

Maybe the US is preempting China's carrier killers. Possible site for a missile defense shield? It wouldn't surprise me if there were similar plans afoot in Senkaku.

^ True, but we don't really need to concern ourselves too much with Korea or Russia as those disputes are manageable and mostly rhetoric. Conversely China's incursions have already resulted in both...

Japan seems to be taking the lead in resisting China's attempts to control the sea. Talk is cheap.... it's good to see someone actually doing something about this situation.

China seems hellbent on starting the next cold-war. Japan will likely begin militarizing soon, US bases are going to pop up all over the region and previously peaceful nations are now eying...

I just hope that China embraces democracy before we go any further down this road. I lived through a chunk of the Cold War and knowing that nuclear oblivion was a very real possibility was pure hell.

If China does not recognize essential components of United Nations policy then they do not deserve their permanent member status.

Exactly. Decades of corruption, incompetence and voter complacency has left us weak and vulnerable. We don't need to be able to beat China, but we must become tough enough to make them think twice...

It's funny how the state controlled press in China isn't talking up war with Russia after their pirates/fishermen were arrested recently. A bully nation indeed.

Take note Philippines... this is how you do it:

Does it remain untouched for years or decades until perhaps China eventually grabs it all or do we make a mutually beneficial deal now? Phils needs money and energy. Phils does not need an arms race...

It's good to know that Japan is sympathetic to our plight and even better that they seem willing to back words with action.

Diplomacy requires some type of leverage whether it be military or economic. We have no cards to play other than the hope that the US would come to our rescue. The best solution for us and other...

It has been mentioned before, but there are striking similarities between what in happening now in China and the events leading to WW2. Nationalistic fervor fueled by propaganda, rapid militarization...

It all depends on what type of fight you are able to muster. China has been extremely vague about the specifics of their territorial claims in the region making many countries highly suspicious of...

Phil politicians and diplomats need to start earning their pay. A great deal of maneuvering needs to be done to gain international support in this matter. Failure to perform in this time of crisis...

Chinese propaganda. The newspapers are controlled by the communist party who are showing the world their true colors. China in it's present form is like a dark cloud in the region. Hopefully the...

Graft is very time-consuming; serving the country and national interest come a distant second to self-enrichment it would seem.

The scary thing about being in a conflict with a country like China is that over there the state completely controls the press . Their people rarely know the truth about a situation and even if they...

Tssk tssk, you're really overdoing it with the "armchair general" comments it's irritating and childish so please stop. China is establishing their dominance. Do you want to sit back and let them...

That has already been proposed and rejected by China. They insist that their claim in undeniable and a core interest. Basically they want everything and say that they will discuss the matter with...

I just don't see China as a force for good in the world. The CCP still has a cold war mentality and they clearly respect neither their own ethnic minorities nor the sovereignty of their neighbors.

Yes, we really need something similar now because the situation will only get worse. China is try to pick us off one at a time using the divide and conquer method. Already they have bought Cambodia's...

China is determined to provoke a military confrontation so they then look justified in militarizing the area. They already tried this with Japan last year using the same strategy of encouraging their...

The leaders of all concerned countries should settle this matter in a mature & civilized manner:
