Your people really want to kill others that are against China, you're no different than the fascists.

Since you said your country has the power to invoke tsunami, it means your country can create tsunami, and you approve of using natural disaster as a way to attack other nations that are against China by inflicting human losses.
The US free to watch China's development efforts. They could simply subscribe to Global Times print edition to get the latest updates, but, if they want to observe it first hand in the more expensive, way, they can do that.
Development is not to be slowed down, let alone halted.
Two paradigms, one is dying (that of the US) the other is just awakening.
One is military-based and coercive, the other is development-based and consensus-based.
China has never saught US approval for its sovereign acts, it won't be changing at this point, as well.
Abe and US tried to force China to respect the outcome plus everybody ignored Abe's cries in Ulan Bator and kept quiet. Abe must have looked like an embarrassd fool in front of everyone.
I really do not understand Mr. Abe.
I would not feel disappointed at Mr. Abe if I really believed this kind of overt anti-China posture would assist Japan in any way. But it does not.
This move is more stupid than Mr. Abe standing by the US strongly at the height of Ukrainian/Crimean crisis.
In the end, it was Mr. Abe falling on his knees in front of Mr. Putin.
What makes Mr. Abe thinks that China is less important for Japan than Russia?

China cant win in a conventional war against a SINGLE CARRIER Battle groups communist government knows about it and the USA have ten of these. The only thing that Chinese communist will do is bark.
I bet even Japan alone can obliterate China.
My personal opinion remains that the 9 Dashed Lines of China in the South China Sea is a Chinese over-reach.
Actually there's a reason why Abe is doing this and it's not because his master told him to do so. Abe wanted Japan to emerge as a first rate country by having a stronger military, he could not bear the 2nd rate image the world has of Japan which is an occupied country. Abe also views China as an economic/military threat which happens to be parallel with US perspective of China. Thus America loosened some grip of the chain around Japan's neck resulting in more nationalistic sentiments from Abe and other right wing Japanese politicians as they hype the rise of China as the factor for destabilizing the SCS regional stability. Now Abe has the right excuse for the military buildup projecting itself as the defender of peace. He came up with the diamond strategy to contain China but in the end failed miserably. The recent meeting in Mongolia reflects this once again as ASEAN members were all quiet while Abe kept on hammering China should respect the verdict. The idea of using all ASEAN members to contain a mighty Dragon who is rising rapidly is a delusional fantasy and that is an understatement.
Land reclaimation on the Qilianyu(7-Island Chain) is going strong.
The building of 3 large suction dredgers for land reclaimation at Huangyandao is also proceeding according to schedule.
The work on Huangyandao is calculated to be more than the total of 7 reclaimations undertook in the SCS so far.
In my opinion it's already too late for Japan. Yes Japan is the 3rd biggest economy and rightfully deserved to be called a powerhouse in that regard. It used to be the leading nation when it comes down to electronics as well. But facing tough competitions from SK and China, Japan is feeling the heat up to its neck. Abe only harms the interest of Japan by agitating China. For him it's a dilemma, on one hand he fears Japan cannot prevent China from getting Daioyu island back thus the urgent need of militarization is understandable, on the other hand by depicting China as the rising threat will only put Japan in a tough spot if it wants more economic cooperation.I guess what Abe misses is that there cannot be military strength without the full backing of economic strength. Japan does not enjoy the privilege of printing unlimited amount of paper money and outsourcing inflation-- unlike the US does.
Obviously Japan is already a significant economic powerhouse, but I believe it will need a healthier economy if Abe really wants to confront China head on.
For this, Japan needs China.
It is like catch 22 for Japan.
Abe also wanted to play tough during Ukrainian crisis, but was shown its real place by Putin. I do not know what it should be different this time with China. Putin was/is under sanctions. China is enjoying record trade surplus with US.
Militarized Japan does not fit in this picture in any way other than being an annoying pest.
