With China's Military entering disputed waters, the people at home are demanding Japanese people leave China, are burning Japanese goods and getting more violent by the hour it seems.

After the Islands were sold to Japan by a Japanese family (This is the part I don't get) the Chinese decide that the islands are rightfully theirs and now the people are thirsting for blood.

Demonstrations in Changsha, Hunan

TOKYO/BEIJING: Six Chinese surveillance ships entered waters near disputed islands claimed by Tokyo and Beijing on Friday, raising tensions between Asia's two biggest economies to their highest level since 2010 over a long-running territorial row.

China's foreign ministry said that the ships entered the disputed waters to conduct maritime surveillance and that for the first time China was carrying out a mission of "law enforcement over its maritime rights".

Islands dispute sparks riots in Chinese cities
The row takes place as both countries grapple with a global economic slowdown and China's Communist Party prepares for a generational leadership change. Protests occurred in Qingdao, Xi'an, Guangzhou and Hong Kong on Saturday as more than 1000 demonstrators gathered outside the Japanese embassy in Beijing. Japan's Kyodo News said more than 40,000 people joined demonstrations in 20 Chinese cities. Read more: www.smh.com.au...

Demonstrations in this location turn violent

Here we have a report of what looks like a Western style "Appease the Masses" approach from the Chinese Govt. Keep the people angry at the Japanese and they won't pay so much attention to the economy, working conditions, Global Affairs, etc. Police just casually keeping order and allowing it to happen. Looks like it's working too.

And as you can see, it's not just the embassy under siege but rioters are looting and destroying Japanese businesses and products such as Japanese cars right in the streets.


I don't know about you folks but my head is spinning and I just can't seem to keep track of all the protests and uprisings around the World anymore. It's like the entire World is on fire it seems.

Me and my buddy Jack Daniels. are going to have a discussion about all this again. We almost solved the World's problems last week but I fell asleep too soon...

Peace

Well if this escalates I'm sure the Japanese can handle themselves. They are one of the smartest people, won't be surprised if they have an army of Robots bigger than the 300 million man Chinese army.

Yeah, I wouldn't count out the Japanese just yet.

Although they are still in the pooper from the Tsunami and EQ. It just seems the Japanese can't get a break at all.

I don't think so. If you've been following Fukushima, the Japanese Gov't has been getting their robots for work in the crapped-out nuclear power plants from the U.S.. They don't even have internal robotic resources that can handle the radiation that is killing the workers they send into the reactors.

China is feeling like top dog on the world scene. The fact that they own 40 cents of every dollar of our debt, and we are 16 trillion in debt, it could be as high as 6 trillion we owe China. What do you think will happen if this territorial dispute escalates to the point where Japan asks for aid from the U.S.

Bad times all over the world....bad times....

I see these protests in China quite differently than those in other area's.

If they are not government approved or organized, they are immediately put down by the military. They are staged events if allowed to continue.

I'd think that this is propaganda for the masses and not much more. China has been doing this for as long as I can remember. We as outsiders looking in, always need to remember there is no Free Speech or Free Press in China. If they burn something, it's staged by the government and it's not spontaneous. I think this is for footage for the State controlled News.

It's just a display of brinksmanship, which has been a staple of Chinese propaganda.

On a more conspiratorial note:

I think this may be to divert attention away from the protests in other countries. They may fear their own citizens will decide to protest for more freedom and this is to divert attention and give them an outlet. I'm fairly sure that's what this is truly about. Those islands have little to do with it I think.

Except the Japanese don't have a military capability. If China attacked Japan, it would be the USA who engages as her defender. I'm sure they would alter the Japanese Constitution to allow the formation of a standing Japanese Army... but if China wanted to blitz Japan, Japan would be helpless.

Not that I think anything will ever come of this.. China is likely just reminding the USA that they are a formidable force in the Pacific. Hence the USA shifting it's power to the Pacific.
