Deployment.. a domestic political play, a diversion? Or... is there something else afoot. A major provocation by the US and its allies in the region, or a unilateral first strike move by the US. We may only be hours away from knowing.
Nothing good would come from any military action from either side. If a war is to be started, let the aggressor be North Korea.

Yes, 'Berti',
Bankrupt the government while enriching those who own the game. A bankrupt government, can't enforce laws and counter rapacious corporations and other nefarious business operations. Welcome to Third world, USA.

You need to read the various trade treaties(laws) applicable to treaty nations. They can, and do apply to other sovereign nations citizens civil/consumer rights/laws. Particularly, the right to sue. The treaty laws are an eye opener for those who care about civil and consumer law.

It is physically obvious that the islands are the South Eastern extant of the Japanese archipelago. Historically it could be another matter which could involve Japaneses imperialism. A touchy political subject for the Japanese. I would be interested to see some historical documentation on the subject of human occupation of the isles.
One thing that is pretty apparent, is the flexing of China's muscle in the region. An obvious grab of resources.
The situation mobilizes the flag wavers, and nationalism. Never a good thing at anytime.

Given my statement, he didn't have the 'right', that in no way infers that we reciprocate. To do so, makes us no better.
The vindictive nature of some of society shouldn't have the ultimate agency.

Ultimately, no one has the right to kill... not even the state.

Yes! 'Jayman' Isn't that our ultimate goal, to become fully human, not just in name only.

Simply wishing for the death of another, for any reason, is barbaric, mindless, spiritless.
Lustful hate is profoundly ugly. Those who lust for revenge are an anathema to the human spirit, how can you claim to be human.
When the state kills, no matter where, or how, it diminishes us all as humans, The world is a community, artificial political borders are archaic.

All of this noise about who is or is going to be the top dog is mute.
Humans have lost control of their future as the developing environmental disaster will prove out. The only viable economic structure for a sustainable future is cottage industry trading in a circle of 250-400 miles, rather then great circle routes of higher and higher costs environmentally and financially. The resources just aren't out there to sustain 'world powers'.
Thinking, caring Americans are tired of our unrealistic, costly, unsustainable position in the world. It was all based on supporting our economy and corporations by controlling global resources and markets too the detriment of all peoples everywhere. China and India are now following that model to their end.
Earth will abide, will humans
Kudos to the many great comments here, especially Thomas Michael Lewis with his clear headed, unprejudiced, take no prisoners view.

My uncle who died last year was in the Battle of the Coral Sea. He was the only survivor of his gun crew when a Japanese plane struck his ship. He had great respect for the bravery of the Japanese pilots.
By the way 'Fadamor' ANTI-War' endeavors to be factual, unlike other sources of faux noise.
