that's a good sound and solid case you put forward and I couldn't argue against what you write on the US bases dotted all across.... that's not the point though for me.
the Chinese Govt foreign minister has said that China does not want war.... and yet, like Henry V, if the fight comes to them they will not shy away but will greet it full on (paraphrased of course). The Chinese Gov has also called their nation to prepare for war.
I'm sure they reason this for defensive purposes, and they would be right. I've been suspecting for some months now of US diplomacy.
yet I don't think this precludes greater territorial claims. They did invade Tibet and further west to the small Stanic State whose name I can no longer remember, where the Uyghur people have their home. Invasions and annexations aren't exclusive to any country. Taiwan lives in constant fear of invasion.
