No relief for the cuspidors, Champ apologizes to Japan over US Spying Allegations
2015-08-26
Perhaps unrelated, but I believe we're down to our last 4 remaining survivors of the Doolittle raid. 'Target Tokyo' is a pretty good read by the way. According to Scott, the Chinese didn't fare so well following the raid.

#3  See also WORLD NEWS > [VOA News] NEW US PACIFIC FLEET COMANDER [USN ADM. Scott K. Swift] ACKNOWLEDGES "GREAT ANGST" AMONGST US ALLIES.

ARTIC = ADM. Swift denoted that the US intends for GUAM to be inter-linked or coordinated wid JAPAN as a major or strategic US hub in WESTPAC/PACIFIC OCEAN AREA.

* IIRC RELATED GUAMPDN > US PENTAGON: MODERNIZE GUAM'S MILITARY ASSETS.

--------------

US REGIONAL ALLIES ARE ANGRY AT CHINA'S ACTIONS, BUT ARE ALSO ANGRIER AT THE US MORE FOR NOT STOPPING CHINA'S ACTIVITIES AS THE ALLIES' HAD HOPED.

All things equal, I say again that China's best "ace" in its Superpower = OWG Co-Superpower competition wid the US in East Asia-Pacific is having an Anti-US US OWG Globalist POTUS in the WH, + as #1 on the US NatComAuth responsible for the direct US Military response to any Regional or World Crisis, OR IN ALTERNATE THE LACK OF SAME.

In case of military conflict between China + various US Regional Allies -Taiwan, PH, Vietnam, Nippon, India, etc. - IMO CHINA WILL PRIORITIZE DETERRING OR KEEPING THE US OUT OF SAME ASAP AMAP ALAP.

THE BEST THING CHINA [+ Russia, Iran in their regions] CAN HOPE FOR IS FOR ANTI-US US GLOBALIST POTUS OBAMA, OR ANY POST-JAN 2017 SIMILAR GLOBALIST POTUS SUCCESSOR(S), TO UNILATERALLY/ASYMMETRICALLY N-O-T INVOKE THE US' VARIOUS MUTUAL DEFENSE-SECURITY TREATIES WID ITS REGIONAL ALLIES.

#2  We continued to read the Japanese Diplo traffic till '48 when a congresscritter let lose in a public hearing that we were reading their code (since before Pearl). Interesting stuff. Today that critter probably would work for the NYT.

#1  Never been part of the intelligence community, but isn't one of the goals of spying not to get caught doing it?
