They are hilarious. Putting a fig-leaf over their naked aggression. Normally, laws are passed in regard to one's own country, not other people's countries. Japan could pass a 2006 Taiwanese Anti-Secession Law to reinstate the status quo of the good old days. Such a law would of course supersede the older Chinese law and would give Tokyo the right to quash seccessionists. Come to think of it, they might as well introduce a China Anti-Secession Law since they won China fair and square and it was only the USA which dispossessed them.

Some people would think such laws just excuses for murderous megalomania and they would be right.

It's interesting that the USA isn't in favour of Taiwanese independence and full UN membership, but they are in favour of Chechnya being independent [as far as I can tell, though Islamic Jihad has perhaps make them think again about that idea].
