what do you recommend? Since I think you can be reasonable.

Let's say we don't stop, and let's also say we don't bring the confrontation on the table, but under it, while we are at it let's say we will continue to assert our claims with just coast guards and fishermen.

Do you recommend shooting it out and see who comes up with what?

BTW, nice pics, blackhawks are awesome.

China must consider one thing, Indonesia is the only reliable partner in South East Asia. Bullying us like you did with Philippines and Vietnam will end up creating a militant ASEAN. China is superpower but not at the same level with USA. US can force their will almost in every part of the globe since US have strategic partners and allies. We see the aggressiveness of China is a sign of fear. China is encircled by US allies from South Korea, Japan, Taiwan to Philippines. Bullying us (Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia) is counter-productive for China interest. If China keeps doing that its only a matter of time before all ASEAN united under US influence and complete the encirclement of China.
