Description
Once, at the beach, when I was a kid, I built a dam of sand across the water running into the sea. A little lake built up behind it and some other kids started to play in it.Being the little prick that I was, I got into an argument with them. As far as I was concerned, that section of the beach was MINE. How dare they be in the same public area as me?!
Basically, this is exactly what is going on in the South China Sea right now….it’s just there’s no adult present to provide the offending party with the much-needed clip ‘round the ear for being such and antisocial dick.

And now those man made islands are armed with anti-aircraft and anti-personnel weapons.

China (or more accurately The Communist party of China) never has played well with others.

Its just a way for both sides to generate weapons sales. Both the USA and China make a lot of money in the defense industry. And now the US Navy has a reason to get a larger budget.

Ah, people being pissed off at one another and afraid of everyone else... the one economy sure to never fail.

The U.S. Navy needs a larger budget to fix most of their ships.
China is following the commie's ideology of no borders.

Never thought my Idol, Jolly Jack has heard about this, good to know. Yeah, Chinese people are starting to be dicky nowadays to the Filipinos, if only you saw the abuse our basketball players got after going to china, the hotel room was lately processed on purpose and all that, then they got spat on in the playing field, yeah, buncha dicks really. But I do love some of their dishes, I mean normal dishes not the Dogs and all that. They also love to ram everyone's ship in the sea with their ship, even Japan's. Despite China is being in Japanese territory already.

This is less childish and more loophole abuse, though. If I remember correctly, something like 200 miles (or kilometers? I don't remember) off the coast of any country is considered part of their territory, so they're just exploting this to their favour.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The thing is, several other nations also claim that coastal territory, historically. There's a lot of overlap, which is why everyone in the South China Sea are arguing over it. And that's also the reason why everyone's so pissed off at China for just moving in and taking the place.

Eh, to be fair, China has always been a bit... reclusive.

i think if it was't for the industry and welth of China, they would be more like N-Korea.

It's mostly a problem of cultural values, but no cartoonist ever stops to think that maybe some other countries hold different standards over certain things before charging to their openly offensive political cartoons, and somehow, get praised as heroes for that.

are you talking about this, becuse this is the hole south china sea feasco in a nut shell.

I'm talking about a lot of things

Well I'll just send my toy boat within a few meters of your sand castle then. Not near it...Not near it!
This is a clever take on the artificial islands from china.

THIS!~ Well done, JJ! Sure made my week a bit better

The funny thing is China and Korea had numerous political cartoons making fun of Japan (saying Japan was going to do the same thing China is) during the whole Tokdo/Takeshima/Lioncourt Rocks issue 10 years ago.

I like China and I do think USA is a massive cunt, but China is pushing this shit too much.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Yeah technically according to the U.N artificial land cannot possess sea territory. Many micronations are hurt by this. And therefore won't be officially recognized as countries.
So yeah china no get away with this.

What won't the Chinese waste or spend excessive resources on next? From empty cities to artificial islands they never cease to astound me with their tendency to overcompensate things to a way that benefits no one, including themselves. Perhaps this is another political/military ploy on their part, but the excuses to kick people out of the South China Sea seems kind of petty at the moment. Other than the threat of Air Bases being set up on the islands or Air Power being used to patrol it in the name of "Chinese Sovereignty," I highly doubt that this is going to result in anything but peaceful means. The last time I or anyone relied on Chinese aid was...well, I don't believe EVER.
Nice try China, gonna have to come up with a better alibi than "Rescue Operations," to convince me that you're not up to something no good. Emphasis on the "No Good," on their planning history.

Sir!
You truly do need to send this to the media outlets(newspapers, magazines). Because it succinctly pinpoints the EXACT thing that's happening, and it's simple enough that the more challenged politicians will get the point.
Please, sir!

Hmm... I guess you Brits giving them back Hong Kong and Taiwan has given the Chinese a swelled head.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Taiwan is a sovereign state. It's where the nationalist Chinese fled to after they lost the Chinese civil war in 1948-ish after bearing the brunt of fighting the Japanese before and during WWII.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
The lease ran out on Hong Kong it's not like anyone would have backed us up if we decided to keep it.
Taiwan's a completely different thing altogether.

Just to pitch in, a lot of the Gulf of Mexico doesn't belong to Mexico either.

I'd like to take this opertunity to point out that India doesn't own the Indian Ocean.

I also want to give a tip. The Gulf of California (yes that's a thing) doesn't really belong to California.

That and Baja California doesn't belong to California either.

I personally believe that the Chinese should be less focused on trying to expand and more focused on their environmental problems, such as the fact that their territory is so polluted that they will run out of local drinkable water by around 2030 according to a recent report that they actually attempted to suppress.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I agree with you about the Chinese. The are making artifical "land" they can use to make territorial claims in the Pacific Ocean.

Amen agnostic brother. You got that dead on right.

Read the maps, those made before 'some-nation' were aware about 'island problem'. Find some validable documents(Wiki and media do not count.) confirm your idea. Not just THINKING, GUESSING, SYMPATHY.
