The Diaoyu Islands dispute heats up as both China and Japan
military aircrafts confronted each other earlier this year in the skies around the disputed islands.
The Chinese military seems ready for a war,
and the international community is paying close attention.
On the 18th, the U.S.
acknowledged Japanese administration
of Diaoyu Islands and opposed any unilateral actions.
The U.S.
also dispatched an AWACS aircraft (Airborne
Warning and Control System) to survey the islands.
It is commented that the Communist regime
never cares about sovereignty.
Claims of war is only to divert domestic crisis.
The Communist regime has been surveying the Diayu
Islands since this January.
That act threatened Japan.
On the 18, the regime rescued crew members from a third
country's (South Korea) sinking boat from the waters of the disputed islands.
This act was commented as a sovereignty declaration
of the Diaoyu (Senkaku) Islands.
Global Times, the Communist regime mouthpiece, recently
warned a possible military conflict between China and Japan and the regime military ordered to prepare for war.
Political commentator Wen Zhao believes the
Communist regime is far from ready.
Wen Zhao: "Their act is to test the U.S.
and Japan.
The Communist regime actually controls the
friction between the regime and Japan.
The threat of a war is related to its domestic politics.
The first goal is to pressure Japan and force Japan
to negotiate on the dispute."
The Mainlanders populist sentiment
was heightened by the military involvement.
The CCTV special military commentator Major General
Zhang Zhaozhong claimed the other day:
Should the war erupt, Japan will be eliminated
within 30 minutes.
Chinese Historian Yuan-Hua Li considers
Zhang Zhaozhong's remarks as a rogue-style bullying.
Yuan-Hua Li: "The Communist respects no one.
The talk is like bullying of the gangsters.
Even if there's a war, with so many lives in Japan,
isn't that a massacre?
Disregard whether it's possible to eliminate Japan
in 30 minutes, his talk reflects that he's inhumane."
The reason for that the China-Japan friction
for the first time elevates to the military level
is on the 10th Japan's intercept fighters against
China maritime patrols near the Diaoyu Islands.
Wen Zhao indicates that this elevated dispute over Diaoyu
Islands was to distract domestic request of freedom of press, i.e., the Southern Weekly incident.
Wen Zhao: "The Mainlanders opinion of war
is a collaborated act of the military,
especially the General Staff, and the state media.
It was to target the political situation in China.
This incited nationalist sentiment becomes a norm
in order to deal with the domestic crisis."
Yuan-Hua Li also does not believe
Diaoyu (Senkaku) Islands impose any issue.
In fact, the Communist regime is the biggest traitor
on the territorial issue.
Yuan-Hua Li: "The Communist regime has historically
sold millions of square kilometers of the Chinese land.
Disregard the size of the Islands, or the historical authority
of the Islands, the Communist regime has never insisted so much on any one territory.
Therefore, it is only to distract the attention,
a consequence of the regime corruption."
The elevated tension over the disputed Islands has promoted
further diplomatic work between the US and Japan.
On the 18, U.S.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton
said, "we acknowledge they are under the administration
of Japan, and we oppose any unilateral actions that would
seek to undermine Japanese administration."
At the same time she reiterated
"the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty applies to it."
Clinton also announced that Abe was invited to visit
the U.S.
next month by President Obama.
This is for the first time the U.S.
states its support to Japan
over the Diaoyu Islands and warning to the Communist regime.
Wen Zhao believes this is the stance the U.S.
is taking
and a direct pressure to the Communist regime.
