#1 Again, as a reminder China would like to see the US influence-n-presence in East Asia + WESTPAC-CENTPAC, i.e. 1/2 of the Pacific, mucho reduced or out by 2020 NLT 2025 wid the US isolated or contained to Hawaii-EASTPAC + US West Coast.

Whats happening in the SCS is only the beginning, as China also desires to de facto permanently-n-forevar! recover Taiwan + attain strategic access for the PLA ASAP AMAP AFAP ALAP vee the East China Sea agz Japan + SOKOR.

Both MSM-Net Perts + Bloggers-Netters have duly noted or pointed out that POTUS Obama had sent only one USN Warship, the USS "Lassen", to the SCS whereas his POTUS predecessors sent entire USN Fleets or Task Groups. NEARLY ALL AGREE THAT UNLESS OBAMA TAKES STRONGER ACTION, CHINA WILL COMPLETE ITS RECLAMATIONS, MILITARIZE THE ISLANDS, + ULTIMATELY ASSUME DE FACTO CONTROL OF THE SCS.

CHINA-ORDERED, NOKOR-FIRED/LAUNCHED.
