#1 IMO it has more to do wid overlord China's still-expanding escalations agz JAPAN, + also the PHIL + INDIA.

When the shooting between Beijing + Tokyo begins, new US Ambassador to Nippon CAROLINE KENNEDY will be in the forefront of something more dangerous to the US than Syria or even Iran.

Not since Mao-led China's Yalu intervention back in 1950, + NO AMOUNT OF CONTEMPORARY "RUST" = OPERATIONAL DEFICIENCY(S) IN THE POST-YEAR 2000, POST-9-11 PLA WILL STOP THE FIGHTING UNTIL "POST-US" CHINA ACHIEVES ITS OBJECTIVES IN EAST ASIA + PACIFIC.

Again, HIGH = PROHIBITIVE PLA CASUALTIES does NOT compute wid Beijing.
