SO DOES THE LAND GRABBING DAYS OF ADOLF HITLER WHEN THE WEST WAS WEAK WITH WW1 NOW THE CHINESE DRAGONS GRABS THE SENKAKU ISLANDS FROM JAPAN AS THE POTUS BHO WEAKENS THE UNITED STATES RESOLVE WITH PROTECTING ITS ALLIES IN THE REGION–THE DAYS OF LAND GRABBING BY COMMUNISTS STATES IS NOT OVER JUST BECAUSE WE HAVE A POTUS LIKE CHAMBERLAIN GIVING LAND FOR PEACE BUT IN THE END LEADS TO WAR

The U.S. is monitoring increased international tensions in the disputed Senkaku Islands in the South China Sea after twice in three days China sent jet fighters to the “Air Defense Identification Zone” it has declared around the chain.

The sorties came after both Japan and South Korea sent fighters into the area to challenge China’s exclusive claim to the uninhabited islands.

Chinese Air Force Col. Shen Jinke claims his nation’s flights are routine and a “defensive measure and in line with international common practices.”

The islands located about 250 miles east of the Chinese mainland have been a point of contention over the past year, because Japan and China, along with Taiwan and South Korea, all express claims to them.

Clarion Project Intelligence and National Security analyst Ryan Mauro says the declaration is China flexing its muscle.

“This is a way of China declaring military domination over the islands without officially taking them over. By saying it is an air defense zone, China is trying to dominate the airspace. It’s basically saying, ‘These are ours and if your aircraft trespass, we have the right to shoot them down,’” Mauro said.

C. J. Burke, CEO of intelligence and consulting firm Burke and Associates, notes China’s long history of animosity toward Japan.

“I think instead you’re seeing the outbreak of a war of ideals. China has had a major issue with Japan for the last 5,000 years or so, and World War II only exacerbated this,” Burke said.

Burke says he believes many Chinese wouldn’t object to a war with Japan.

“Large contingents of the Chinese population would relish a war with Japan (even if they haven’t thought out how that would actually turn out). So China makes inroads with these groups and simultaneously pressures Japan,” Burke said.

Burke said people in both countries hold long-standing resentments toward the other.

“China has a populace that would be happy to see Japan suffer. And Japan feels much the same way at a sociological level. So China pressuring this way costs the emperor and the Diet some infra-political coinage,” Burke said.

A former CIA station chief who asked not to be identified said a war between China and Japan would “cost the U. S. economically big time.”

However, he added that in reality, the war would evolve into a war between the U. S. and China.
