But if you want to, let's all choose sides, as they did in WWI, re-arm, stop doing useful things to promote peace, light, harmony, happiness, health, prosperity, longevity, fun and love, and get ready to repeat the slogan "Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat this cliche".

Time for Japan to re-arm? I, for one, am not afraid of the Japanese, but it does seem a pity, since the Japanese have better things to do these days, but, well, life is what happens when you are making other plans. Let the Japanese re-arm! And let them be on our side this time! Banzai!

If we want to count our blessings, Chinese madness has scared the EU from sending more arms to China. Thank our lucky stars.

PS Rumor has it that what's actually at stake is the Senkaku/Diaoyutai Islands, oil, gas, and travelling rights for the US 7th fleet.

In other words, same-old, same-old, money and power, only CCP likes to pretend that money and power "don't matter."

Subject: Keeping one's eye on the ball --

Re: I'm a lot more worried about those young, live, vicious, stupid, jingoistic, megalomaniac and violent Chinese males

Humanity has an infinite ability to distract itself. Realistically, the young, live, vicious, stupid, jingoistic, megalomaniac and violent males that ought to be considered THE LARGEST THREAT TO DEMOCRACY AND HARMONY today are all wearing the uniforms provided (if not paid for) by the Pentagon, and by malicious mercenary shops like CACI, Blackwater, Halliburton-KBR, Custer-Battles, etc.

How silly to see a staged series of street riots against a "wicked"(TM)foreign enemy as anything other than histrionic theatrics perpetrated by the leaders of China, following the rules of set-piece propaganda manipulation of the masses.

Keep your eye on the ball. The real evil on this planet is being planned by CINC/CENTCOM, SecDef Rumsfeld and Oil Slick Dick.
