#1 Regarding the title, I'd always considered China's backyard to be her landlocked Western border.

#2 All the jobs South Korea has created and all the money they've invested in Mainland China, and all they get out of it is, "You're being mean to our rabid dog, and nice to the Americans! Learn your place!"

#3 China has been nudging us for a while, with that aircraft take down, and using fishing boats to harass our ships, not to mention the Cheonan, by proxy.

Makes you wonder when the USN is going to nudge back.

I'm thinking that China has too many submarines, and it would be unfortunate if one of more of their advanced ones suddenly decided to have a Kursk.

#4 Why do they care?

It's not like we have a reason to attack.

The only thing that makes sense is that if we actually stay out they can say they pushed us around.

#6 The anti-carrier stuff is more for domestic Chinese consumption than anything.
