USA – The warring state up to mischief again

When there is an opportunity to incite war, to create rivalry among nation states, to create tension, be sure the USA will be there. The USA has for many decades being trying to provoke the two Koreans to destroy and kill each other in North East Asia. It has repeatedly held provocative joint military exercises at the borders of the two Koreans, simulating an assault or landing into North Korea. And with the used of western media and reporters, continuously accused the North Koreans of being aggressive and unstable, unpredictable for reacting negatively to the joint military exercises at their doorstep. The most recent and closest attempt to start war between the two Koreans was of course the sinking of a South Korean Naval ship, the Choenan, and killing several tens of seamen in it.
 
Now sailing several thousand miles across the Pacific Ocean, the Americans are at it again holding joint military exercises with the Japanese to simulate attacking Chinese islands. And further south, it is conducting a more dangerous wargame with an equally trigger happy but top empty Filipino armed forces in the disputed waters of the South China Sea. And China would be blamed by Washington and all the western media for reacting to this hostile provocation at their front yard.
 
China cannot stay away and look the other way with such blatant and provocative acts of aggression. China must react firmly which is what the Americans wanted to be used as proof of China’s militancy against a small country like the Philippines. And China must react, like it or not, to keep these warlike countries away for good. Appeasement or taking a low profile will only embolden the Americans and the mindless Pinoys to think China is weak. It would not be surprising to see China showing its muscle and intent not to be pushed around by the Americans.
 
The American pivot to Asia is a hostile military strategy. Do the Asean countries understand this or pretending not to see it? How many Asean countries are welcoming this American move to stick its fingers in between the legs of the Asean countries and calling it a peaceful interference? The American lackeys would no doubt sing praises for the Americans to be the new master and ruler in the region. Asean and South East Asia will again be the chess board of American imperialism and Asean countries by its chess pieces for military dominance in the region.
 
China will not only protest, but will also have to stand up to push back this unwelcome initiative of the Americans. How many Asean countries will be on the Chinese side, to keep the region free of American power, provocation, intimidation and eventually war? Like it or not, China has to confront the warmongering USA and may have to risk a war in order to hold its ground and defend its territorial integrity. It is only a matter of when.
