Far be it for me to defend Communist
Chinese military aggression, but I wonder.
The Politburo Standing Committee of the
Communist Chinese Party (PSCCCP) sure looks like they have
miscalculated. Buzzing Japanese surveillance planes, and playing
chicken with US Navy vessels. Violating the economic zone of her
neighbors. This belligerence seems to have provoked a defense league.
Countries that have never had anything to do with one another (India,
Vietnam, Japan, Philippines) are now cooperating for the first time
in history.
Think for a moment: Communist China is
pumping oil from Africa, Iraq, and (potentially) Canada. Add in the
recent deal to import natural gas from Russia. All of the ocean
territory seized by CC have one thing in common: oil. CC is resource
hungry.
I believe that the motivating force
behind CC foreign policy is the same one that motivated
Bush-the-son's:
oil
It
made for messy and difficult foreign policy, and it could be that CC
is going down the same road. If so, it will lead to equally tragic
consequences.
OK,
this is my analysis. May I go out and play now?
