With all the trash that's been spewing from the Chinese propaganda machine historically, it's not hard for one to side with Japan on this...
Unfortunately for the Chinese, they can't "bury" this one like they did with the high-speed train after it crashed...

More and more the international community realizes that they have to prepare to stand against the true threat, China.

Fascist China? That label is getting old!
Actually, CCP saying "Imperialist Militaristic Japan" is getting really old. About 70 years old.

It's probably because the Pearl Harbor attack was conducted by a militaristic regime of 60 years ago that no longer is in power. In fact, the current Chinese regime looks and acts more like Japan of the 1930's and 1940's.
Distortion, deception, censorship, aggression against neighbors. Japan of the past, China of present. Additionally, Japan hasn't massacred its own citizens in the range of millions of people in the last 40 years (Great Leap Forward, Cultural Revolution anyone?)
No wonder the international community is distrustful of China...

Pinging or locking on by countries that had relative self constraint (such as US-USSR) back in the cold war days is one thing, that act being done by an illogical regime such as China in another. As for Japan, they wouldn't fire first anyway.
China doesn't come out looking like an angel in the eyes of international public. Again.

Just even things out by authorizing sales of military goods (destroyers, fighters) to Taiwan and Philippines. It'll be good for US industries and also work to better stabilize the SE Asia sector.

It's laughable that everytime China "slams" another nation or requests a denial of a visit by someone that Beijing doesn't like, it constantly falls upon deaf ears...

China deserves criticism but also deserves praise for the remarkable strides it has made since 1979.
Well, when the starting point is the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, I guess only a couple million killed or repressed is a stride forward....

China claiming problems with Bananas? You would normally think that they have enough tainted food problems within themselves before they can criticize others... I wonder which Chinese agent planted the so called insect...

Well, I guess Ford cars' image and quality has come up alittle bit since they started building the Focus and Fusion in Mexico....but I don't see Ford in general as doing well in Japan or other Asian countries... Maybe Buick in China, but not Ford.

Perhaps the national government should take the money that would have gone to China via ODA and instead use it to buy the island to make it government property?

How about just shifting the priorities of where the current funds are going? Definitely should stop all ODA's (if any) that are going to China since they don't need it or appreciate it and re-funnel that to deserving countries.
