WILL SOUTH CHINA SEA DISPUTE CAUSE WORLD WAR?

I'M NOT ASKING, BUT VOICE OF AMERICA DID.

MAYBE THEY'RE JUST HOPEFUL FOR SOMETHING TO TAKE EYES OFF THE PENTAGON'S LATEST BLUNDER WITH THE LIVE ANTHRAX SENT TO A BAZILLION LABS THING?

THE SOUTH CHINA SEA DISPUTE, TO ME, IS JUST NOT QUITE UNDERSTANDABLE AS A REASON TO LAUNCH NUKES.

A FRIEND, SOON TO BE AN EX-FRIEND, SENT ME A LINK TO THE 'VOICE OF AMERICA' ARTICLE, I READ IT, AND SAID TO MYSELF, "IF THIS REALLY IS AMERICA'S "VOICE", WE ARE SO SCREWED!"

WHY IT ESCALATED IN SOME "REPORTER'S" MIND INTO THIS TYPE HEADLINE IS BEYOND MY COMPREHENSION, BUT MAYBE WE CAN FERRET OUT WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON?

HERE'S WHAT 'VOICE OF AMERICA' IS SAYING: 

"The U.S. and China have increasingly argued in recent days over Beijing's artificial island building, turning underwater land into airfields, in the South China Sea.

[HOW THE HELL CAN LAND UNDERWATER BE CONSIDERED AN AIRFIELD? RIGHT THERE, OLD PAL, OLD BUDDY SHOULD HAVE RECOGNIZED THIS IS CRAP!]

U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter said on Saturday that the U.S. opposes “any further militarization” of the disputed lands, while one of China’s top ranking military officials has defended building artificial islands in contested waters, saying the land reclamation is “justified, legitimate and reasonable.”


Gordon Chang, author of The Coming Collapse of China, recently claimed that the South China Sea could become the next “Great War Zone.”

[ "
Gordon Guthrie Chang is a lawyer, author, and television 'pundit'.." NOT AN EXPERT ON MUCH OF ANYTHING THAT I COULD FIND CREDENTIALS FOR!] 
Chang said last week at a panel discussion held by the U.S. Air Force Association that it will not be long before the U.S. takes initiatives to respond to China’s unyielding attitude and behavior in the South China Sea. He said the time frame is now. 

[The Air Force Association (AFA) is an independent, 501(c)(3) non-profit, civilian education organization, headquartered in Arlington, Virginia! ]
“The U.S. Navy is clearly going to test China’s claims of exclusion of the South China Sea,” Chang said. “We have to do that, because if there has been any consistent American foreign policy over the course of two centuries, it has been the defense of freedom of navigation.”
“Now China is infringing on that notion at this time,” Chang added. “I think we probably will act in a very short time frame.”
He said China sees the South China Sea as one of its core interests with no room for negotiation, while the U.S. has been the influential maritime power for the past two centuries. Both could concede on the South China Sea issues, Chang said, but they will not abandon their long-held positions."
[LONG-HELD POSITIONS? ON ARTIFICIAL ISLAND-BUILDING OR "WHO IS MASTER OF THE OCEAN SEAS"?]
BUT WAIT, THE WATER GETS EVEN MURKIER ON WHY WORLD WAR III WOULD ERUPT OVER A FEW LITTLE ARTIFICIAL ISLANDS. NORTH KOREA GETS DRAGGED INTO THE FAIRY TALE. 

"Rick Fisher, senior research fellow at the International Assessment and Strategy Center, told VOA that attention should also be paid to the development of nuclear weapons in China and North Korea. He said that although North Korea stays quiet for now, it is likely to take advantage of the South China Sea disputes in the foreseeable future.


[??? WTH???]

“As soon as North Korea can demonstrate that it can fire a nuclear missile, then North Korea becomes a factor because North Korea itself can decide to take a period of high confrontation in the South China Sea and put greater pressure on the United States in order to obtain concessions from South Korea or the U.S. itself.” So, Fisher said, “as soon as there is a crisis, North Korea could become a very dangerous element.”
Fisher said although Kim Jong Un has rifts with the Chinese government, both share and act by the same communist ideology." 
HUH?
WHAT? 


AS MY GREAT UNCLE, A VETERINARIAN, USED TO SAY, "THAT MAKES ABOUT AS MUCH SENSE AS TEATS ON A BOAR HOG!"

RIGHT ON, UNCLE!

HANG ON, I'M CHECKING TO SEE IF THIS FROM SOME CHILD'S "ACTION COMICS" MAYBE... NOPE..IT REALLY IS "VOA". 
AN ADULT WROTE THIS PIECE?
RECKON?
I HAVE MY DOUBTS!
"Well-known American investor George Soros also expressed concerns about the Chinese aggression in the South China Sea in recent months.

[UH-OH! HELL'S BELLS, IF GEORGE-THE-MAN SOROS SAID SO, THEN WAR IT IS!
BUT WAIT! GEORGE WASN'T TALKING ABOUT THOSE DAMNED STUPID LITTLE ISLANDS!]

"He [BIG GEORGE] said at a recent World Bank forum that if China suffers economically, it is likely to initiate a third world war in order to achieve national solidarity and to get itself out of the economic difficulties.
Even if China and the U.S. do not engage in a war directly, Soros said, there is a high possibility of military conflicts between China and one of the U.S. security partners, Japan. World War III could follow as a result, Soros said."

THAT'S SIMPLY A LIE ABOUT THE SOUTH CHINA SEA THING AND SOROS!
HERE IS WHAT SOROS REALLY SAID:
"US billionaire investor George Soros warns the world is on the brink of WWIII unless the US financial system opens up to China.
To avoid disaster, Washington needs to strengthen its economic ties with Beijing, according to Soros."


HE DID NOT SAY IT WAS ABOUT CHINA'S ISLAND-BUILDING!

PLEASE, MAKE IT STOP!!!

READ THAT ALL AGAIN, THAT VOA ARTICLE! 
THIS IS BS, BS, BS, PURE THROWN-TOGETHER CRAP! 
IT'S A PIECEMEAL, NONSENSE, JABBERWOCKY JOKE! 

IT'S LIKE SOME CRAZY SOMEWHERE IS TRYING TO STITCH TOGETHER ONE OF THOSE "CRAZY-QUILTS"! 
WAS EVERYONE DRUNK OR STONED AT "VOA" WHEN THIS WENT ONLINE?

I HATE TO GO ON QUOTING THIS FARCE, BUT FEEL, OH, I DON'T KNOW...DRIVEN?

"Tad Daley, director of the project on abolishing war at the Center for War/Peace Studies, disagrees with the notion that the South China Sea issues are having a strong impact on Chinese nuclear weapon strategies.

Daley said China achieved its second-strike capability many decades ago.

[SECOND-STRIKE? CHINA COULD FIRST-STRIKE THE HELL OUT OF ANYONE, ANY TIME! AND TAD DALEY? A GLENN BECK WANNABE GUYQUOTED AS A SOURCE ON IMPENDING WAR? NO WONDER THAT READS "SECOND-STRIKE! THE MAN DOESN'T RECOGNIZE CHINA AS EITHER BAT-GUANO INSANE OR THEIR NUCLEAR CAPABILITY!]
“Maybe in 1975, when China said you’d better not launch nuclear strikes on us, because probably a few nuclear warheads would remain, and we could take out Los Angeles and San Francisco,” Daley said. “That situation existed for many decades.” 

[OMG, READ THAT HORRIBLE SENTENCE! I CAN'T BELIEVE SOMEONE WITH 'JOURNALISM 101' UNDER THEIR BELT WROTE THIS!]

"President Barack Obama on Monday also sternly warned China that its land reclamation projects in the South China Sea are counterproductive and a threat to Southeast Asian prosperity."
[NO, HE DID NOT! WHY SAY THAT WHEN IT'S SO EASY TO CHECK FOR WHAT HE DID SAY?]

END OF ARTICLE, THANKS BE!   

SHEN HUA IS NAMED AS THE REPORTER AT "VOA" FOR THIS ATROCITY CALLED AN ARTICLE... REMEMBER THE NAME.
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU READ ANYTHING THIS LUDICROUS? 
EVER?

WAS IT WRITTEN IN SOME ALIEN LANGUAGE AND TOSSED INTO THE NOTORIOUS "GOOGLE TRANSLATOR", SHAKEN, STIRRED AND POURED OUT ON A SCREEN FOR SOMEONE'S AMUSEMENT? 

IF YOU, LIKE I DID, GOT THIS CRAP FROM SOME FRIEND, I SUGGEST YOU END THAT FRIENDSHIP NOW, RIGHT NOW!   

"THE SKY IS FALLING" COMES TO MIND, AND 'CHICKEN LITTLE' READ THIS AND...PANICKED?

CBS MADE A SMALL DEAL OVER THIS.

"China has been expanding its military footprint in the South China Sea, to the chagrin of leaders in the U.S. The move to construct artificial islands there and expand its military presence has elicited a range of responses from President Obama, his administration and members of Congress.
As China grows in power, economically and militarily, it is "beginning to spread its wings and to bear its fangs a bit," said CBS News Senior National Security Analyst Juan Zarate. Its latest actions, he said, are the manifestation of what many experts have said is an inevitable competition between China and the U.S.

[EVER NOTICE HOW "NEWS ANALYSTS" DO ANYTHING BUT "ANALYZE"? THEY GUESS, AND THEY WRITE THINGS TO SELL  COPY.]
"The truth is, is that China is going to be successful -- it's big, it's powerful, its people are talented and they work hard, and it may be that some of their claims are legitimate," Mr. Obama said at the White House Monday. "But they shouldn't just try to establish that based on throwing elbows and pushing people out of the way. If in fact their claims are legitimate, people will recognize them."

[YEAH, SOME"STERN WARNING" LIKE THE "VOA" ARTICLE CLAIMED, RIGHT?]
CBS GOES ON WITH A LOT OF POLITICAL "HE SAYS, THEY SAY", MAINLY TRYING TO MAKE ASH CARTER LOOK LIKE HE CAN SAY SOMETHING INTELLIGENT (FAIL!), AND THEN THE USUAL "LOOK AT ME!" REMARKS BY THAT PATHETIC JOHN McCAIN, WHO WOULD COMMENT ON BETTY CROCKER COOKBOOKS TO GET SOME PRESS, BUT, NO, HELL NO, WE ARE NOT STARING INTO THE EYES OF WORLD WAR III OVER STUPID ARTIFICIAL ISLANDS WITH RUNWAYS IN THE SOUTH CHINA SEA... UNDERLINE "CHINA".

AND I AM BAKING SOME NICE EX-LAX-LACED BROWNIES TO SEND TO MY FRIEND WHO SENT ME THIS...SO HE CAN SEE WHAT A LOAD OF MANURE AND THE VOICE OF AMERICA ARTICLE HAVE IN COMMON.
EAT UP, CHICKEN LITTLE!
AND READ UP ON THE FESTERING CANCER IN THE MIDLE EAST...NOW THERE IS WW3 IN THE MAKING!
