Japan supports Lynas...natch!
All that needs to happen next is for the US Pacific fleet to  force passage past those militarized islands..you know where... enforcing international maritime law.
Then what ....Chinese to lose face easily .. doubtful. They have already threatened a lawful flyover by the US .
A fleet is another thing altogether,yes?'
One shot across the bow..just one and all breaks loose.
A side effect apart from other  serious  ramifications  would be a necessary relocation of concept of source  regarding materials  supplied by China not easily available elsewhere..apart from Apple stuff that means REE.  Another bubble until peaceful negotiation settles the South China Sea.
  I suspect the fleet will illustrate their intent in the next 1-2 months.
