#2 I'd order "All watertight doors closed" and if they didn't move, ram them, then sue for damages.

Bet the UN would agree, that's a good way to soak up all the "Debt" China holds.

#4 BIGNEWSNETWORK> [Inquirer] CHINA WAS "IRRESPONSIBLE" IN STANDOFF AT SEA - US.

SecDef Hagel.

and

* RENSE > [Press TV] US MILITARY BUILDUP IN PACIFIC A "RECIPE FOR DISASTER": MADSEN. CHINA WILL NOT TOLERATE US IN ASIA-PACIFIC IFF IT SUPPORTS REGIONAL ALLIES AGZ CHINA.

* SAME > JAPAN'S RECKLESS ROAD TO WORLD WAR III |
[Japan Times] OPINION: DEFENSE BUILDUP WON'T BRING SECURITY.

True enuff - as said times before, it behooves "post-US", "Mahanist", future World #1 China = Rising China to make any PLA-led/centric Military or MilPol moves before US allies in East Asia modernize + become too potent - read, NUCLEAR-ARMED. DITTO BEFORE ANY US-LED GMD-TMD IS INSTALLED CIRCA 2018.

The above is also inclusive of so-called US "GLOBAL PROMPT STRIKE/PROMPT GLOBAL STRIKE", SPACE STRIKE + SPACE DEFENSE, ETC. "OFFENSIVE" ANDOR "DEFENSIVE" ORBITAL + DEEP SPACE MILSYS.

It should be quite clear from the MSM-Net + Chinese MilBlogs that mainland China no longer accepts the Cold War, post-Cold War, andor post-9-11 "status quo" vee the USA or even NATO-EU - MORESO UNDER THE PREMISES/TENETS OF OWG "GLOBALISM" INCLUD PAR "CO-SUPERPOWERS".

China sees US Milbases everywhere near its sovereign shores - it does NOT see any PLA Milbases near America's sovereign shores. OWG GLOBALIST "CO-SUPERPOWER" PARITY IS HENCE A FALSE OR FALLACIOUS CONCEPT UNLESS THE USA-N-ONLY-THE-USA UNILATERALLY, VOLUNTARILY OR FORCIBLY, PULLS BACK FROM EAST ASIA + PACIFIC, I.E. WESTPAC, TOWARDS HAWAII [EastPac]+ US WEST COAST.

* SNAFU/FUBAR = As good Politicos, neither pro-US nor anti-US OWG-NWO Globies are explaining ro describing the above to mainstream US Voters, THUS THE VERY VERY V-E-R-Y REAL GEOPOL/MILPOL DANGER THAT ANY MOVE AS ABOVE IN THE NAME OF GLOBALISM WILL INSTEAD BE INTERPRETED AS DE FACTO STRATEGIC WEAKNESS ON THE PART OF THE ALREADY PERT, MSM-NET ALLEGED "WEAK/DECLINING" USA.

'Tis what happens when good elected Govtcritters keep important information or concepts, etc. to themselves instead of telling or explaining same, etc. to the people like they are supposed to.

To paraph CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER > "SAY IT WID ME, BAMMERIKA, OOOOOOOOPPPPPPPSSSIES"!

Most Perts believe thata US-China conflict in East Asia can easily escalate to NUCLEAR WAR, MOST LIKELY LIMITED NUCWAR = LIMITED TACTICAL NUCWAR - to avoid any such potential US-China NucWar, will the Poor Econ, Sequester, SHutdown, + post-Shutdown, alleged Marxist-Anarchist-Globalist affected USA = Bammer Amerika give up historical influence + security roles in East Asia + Pacific in order to keep borrowing $$$ from China in support of the massive US Welfare-Nanny State, National-State-Global Socialism
[not-just-Big-or-Bigger-but-"BIGGEST" GOVT]+ post-2015 "borderless", "anti-sovereign" OWG Global Fed Unions e.g. NAU, Trans-Pac, + Trans-Atlantic "Partnerships".

I THINK SO.

* IIRC DEMOCRATIC UNDERGROUND > US IS NOW A POLICE STATE.
