China Tells Japan to Take `Wise' Decision, Free Fishermen, Boat

Two Japanese Coast Guard vessels conducting oceanographic investigations were ordered to suspend operations by a Chinese warship, the Yomiuri newspaper reported yesterday. The ships were 280 kilometers (174 miles) west-northwest of the main island of Okinawa, in an area Japan claims as its exclusive economic zone, on Sept. 11, according to the report. Japan filed a complaint with China over the incident, the Yomiuri said.

This is not the first time China has flexed its muscles in the region. Tibet, and disputes area surrounding the Spratly Island has been fought over in the last couple of decades with China mowed over 5 SE Asian countries to steal the oil/gas field. China is now bolder than ever, they are willing to play hard ball with an important US ally, because it have to quench the energy thirst due to its rapid economic growth. And recently China made a bold statement that it should be entitle to 20% of the arctic (they want a large portion that is under control by Canada at the present) because they have 20% of the world population.

Yikes! Japan had the same problem with getting raw material for their growing economy in the early 40s and look what happened.

Based on my conversations with some on this board, Japan embarked on a noble but unsuccessful campaign of decolonization and genocide-blocking.

So where was the outrage from China when it captured fishermen from Phillipine, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, etc. at disputed islands and sea area but now they are crying like a little girl when Japan is doing the same thing?

LOL @ China commies. Karma is a bitch.

And don't forget about how they claim most of the East Sea as their own. Can you imagine India would claim 90% of Indian Ocean or US would claim 95% of Gulf of Mexico as their own?

I'll be concerned when China doesn't have to 'claim' something just like we currently don't have claim the Gulf as our own.
