China had the biggest military parade in their history this week and

Will that be the next place we see a war?

It is amusing that they are making it sound l;ike Mao's troops pretty
much beat Japan by themselves and the reality is that the nationalist
army was the only significant force. I guess they waited 70 years and
hope nobody remembers.

Do you think our president would do anything about Chinese aggression? I don't.

I am not sure I want them to if it is just about some unoccupied
islands that they have been arguing about for 200 years.

Is that it? Or is that it 'for now'? At what point does the island taking stop?

It would certainly be a place where the ownership was less ambiguous.
