This Week at War: Japan Gets Tough - By Robert Haddick
Japan and China go fishing for trouble A seemingly minor maritime incident last week -- a collision between a Chinese fishing boat and two Japanese Coast Guard vessels -- is quickly turning into a significant diplomatic crisis.

A Third Sino-Japanese War?
September 18th History Museum in Shenyang, China  (via Wikipedia) Curiously, either by coincidence or by orchestration, this fish boat/border incident is an eerie reminder of the 9-18 Incident. The 9-18 Incident or the Shenyang Incident, is mostly referred to as the Mukden, or Manchurian Incident by the West and Japan. For people unfamiliar with this part of the world history, the 9-18 Incident was a border dispute escalated into a Military conflict between China and Japan on Sep....

Along with forced sterilization and other coercive methods of Birth Control, forced Abortion...

In Hot, Flat, and Crowded (2008), for instance, Tom Friedman lauded the policy for saving China from a population calamity. What Friedman and others fail to understand is that China is built upon a crumbling...
