"... It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings."....I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

WEST PHILIPPINE SEA DEEM HAGUE RULING 2016 THAT AWARDED 200MILES OF EEZ TO THE PHILIPPINES AFTER THE PRC LAND GRAB. NOW THE PRC CONTINUED BULLYING TACTIC AGAINST THE PHILIPPINES CONTINUES ALONG THE AYUNING SHOAL AND PAG-ASA ISLAND
Unlike previous territorial disputes put before the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea or International Court of Justice in The Hague, this tribunal did not adjudicate on sovereignty. That would have required both parties’ agreement. Furthermore, China’s reservations after ratification of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) against compulsory dispute settlement under the Convention being binding effectively precluded such a direct approach. The Philippines was able to seek arbitration by focusing its case on the legal status of disputed maritime features, rather than a determination on who owns what. On these more limited terms, the Philippines obtained a sweeping victory, with the panel finding unanimously in its favor on almost all fifteen submissions.

WILL NOT SO ANYMORE AS JAPAN TO ARM ITSELF WITH OFFENSIVE WEAPONS TO COUNTER THE CHINESE FUTURE OFFENSIVE... JAPAN'S PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH
Japan is looking to buy up to 500 U.S.-made Tomahawk cruise missiles by the end of fiscal 2027, the Yomiuri daily reported Wednesday, as the country gears up to acquire a so-called counterstrike capability.
Prompted by rising concerns over nuclear-armed North Korea’s missile advancements and the breakneck speed of China’s military modernization, Japan is looking to prepare for a dramatic shift in its security strategy by revising a number of key defense documents and acquiring new means of counterattack such as the Tomahawk.

COMMUNIST CHINA WILL SAY WHATEVER IT WANTS AS THE COMMUNIST CHINA CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF LYING, LIKE CATCHING THE TIGER BY THE TOE, AS ITS CLAIM OF PEACEFUL TRANSACTION IN THE SOUTH SEA AS THE PHILLIPINE NAVY RECOVERS A CHINESE SPENT DEBRIS ROCKET IN ITS WATER WHILST THE CHINESE NAVY CONFISCATE BY FORCE AFTERWARDS
The Chinese Embassy in Manila on Monday denied the claim of Philippine authorities that a China Coast Guard vessel harassed a Philippine Navy tug boat to forcibly take possession of a downed piece of rocket debris found floating near Pag-asa Island in Kalayaan town on Sunday, November 20.
“There was no so-called blocking of the course of a Philippine Navy boat and forcefully retrieving the object at the scene,” the embassy said Monday, citing China’s Foreign Ministry.
Flatly contradicting the statements issued separately by the Palawan police detachment in Kalayaan Island and the Western Command (WESCOM), China claimed that its CCG crew had a “friendly consultation” with the crew of the Philippine naval boat, a rubber hulled tow boat, who “voluntarily” turned over the debris to them.
“After friendly consultation, the Philippine side returned the floating object to the Chinese side on the spot. The Chinese side expressed gratitude to the Philippine side,” it stated.
“At around 8 a.m. on November 20, a China Coast Guard ship found an unidentified floating object in the waters off the Nansha Islands, which was later identified as the wreckage of the fairing of a rocket recently launched by China. Before the China Coast Guard found the said floating object some Philippine Navy personnel already retrieved and towed it,” the statement added.
