:whiste:
If the Chinese never owned the islands, how did they turn them over to the Japanese in the Shimonseki Treaty? How did they gain them back in the Potsdam Declaration?
I saw Formosa, aka Taiwan but no Diaoyu anywhere as you claimed previously. :whiste:
Keep digging deeper and make stuffs up out of thin air, comrade.
Give in to a bully demands and they make moreWhy is the US involved? We just love being the world's police.
*shrug* Can't fix stupid.
The US doesn't take a position on who has sovereignty over the islands but recognizes they are under Japanese administration.
Along with a rise in its economic and military power in recent years, China has become more assertive over its maritime claims.
China claims over the islands extend back hundreds of years.
But Japan says it saw no trace of Chinese control of the islands in an 1885 survey and as a result
formally recognised them as Japanese sovereign territory in 1895.
Japan then sold the islands in 1932 to descendants of the original settlers.
After the Japanese surrender at the end of Second World War in 1945 islands fell under the control of the allied forces and were administered by the U.S. occupation force.
But in 1972, Washington returned them to Japan as part of its withdrawal from Okinawa.
And I can't see your brain... does that mean you don't have one? :awe:
US B-52 bombers challenge disputed China air zone
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-25110011
lol, China you're up. Let's see how far they want to escalate it or it gonna be all talk
All Japanese airlines have said that they will NOT comply with China's rules.NBC Nightly News just said earlier tonight that US B-52s did make the trip deep into the area without any trouble from china. Look like commie china is all hot air and nothing else. Typical of pathetic bully, so eager to push around smaller neighbors but would not dare to take on anyone with the same size or bigger (military power) such as Russia or US.

Seems like a pointless announcement to me. China can declare an air defense zone all it wants but neither Korea nor Japan are going to acknowledge it.
Not so sure about Korea. They've been quiet about this ADIZ. Add to that the fact that China sees S. Korea as an "old friend" and the fact that Korea has a history of being a vassal state, I doubt they would stand up to China the way Japan, Russia, Vietnam, or even the Philippines have...
i thought this CNN op-ed was a pretty decent analysis:
http://globalpublicsquare.blogs.cnn.com/2013/11/26/china-may-have-shot-itself-in-the-foot/?hpt=wo_c2
basically, china screwed itself. Japanese airlines aren't following the ADIZ, and you can't exactly shoot down civilian-containing aircraft.
US aircraft just trolololol'd the ADIZ, and while SK has been kind of friendly with China, they have more reason than before to side with Japan.

There's pretty much zero chance of Korea and Japan coming to any kind of serious collaboration. Both countries have solid relationships with the US and don't really need the other for their security interests. Of course, it would be great for us if the countries formed a unified front but domestic concerns for both President Park and PM Abe will make it impossible.
I think Korea's issues with Japan are too singular. One dimensional, even. Japan has been willing to talk and discuss issues but there are some things Korea just cannot let go...
Like their women being raped, yeah that's easy to let go.

The ultimate taunt was the B-52s were unarmed.

Rape and murders happens in all countries of the would. Even by the same citizens of that country. It's not necessary that you blame it only on the aggressor country. It's a human undoing. You cannot blame the whole country for that.
If past action or world histories would become the yard stick for the present and future generations hatred. Then no country in the world can remain friendly.
The world would only remain enemy for one another.
You need to learn to forgive and let go in favor of your own interests.
If India would make UK it's enemy because it was it's colony for almost 200yrs. Then India won't be able to advance its future interest of its present generation.
We don't need to make the actions of our great grandfathers and there relatives the reason for our own misery or hatred.
The faster you would understand this. The faster you would be able to advance your own interests.
