It's traditional to get angry young men focused on external "enemies" than have them expending energy directed at tribal alpha males. So of course China needs an outside issue to deal with and enemy to defeat.

People play football and other sports to sublimate their chimpoid natures. Better still is the real thing to put minds in the right state.

Oh look, there's Taiwan - a stolen crown jewel which must be repossessed. By crikey, the USA is bad. Quick all you young men, prepare for victory. Don't forget those evil-doing Japanese to be guarded against ... Russia is always handy too.

See how TJ has always seen the competition as one for victory and Last Man Standing. None of VVVs simpering co-operative teleological metaphysics for the chimpoids. But what can you expect? A Brazilian crocodile can't be anything but.

Mqurice

Typical Anglo. Only put things in terms of show downs and vendettas.

But this is a Sino-Anglo problem. Brits must beware if the Chinese still remember how their treat them during defunct empire.

From Brazil will seat down and watch it...
