I have no personal stake in the matter. I am neither Chinese, nor Filipino. My only concern is the fair and equitable treatment of all countries that share borders with SCS. You can keep barking up your nationalist & patriotic tree; it means nothing in an objective discussion. Philippines, Vietnam, other countries have EEZs and whatever falls within those EEZ rules belong to those nations. None of those countries are claiming any area that falls under Chinese EEZ.
then try to argue with the facts, not with my personality.
WHich of what I stated above is not a fact? You're entitleed to your opinion, but don't give me EEZ bullsh!t established only in the 1980's which the US even doesn't recognise, particularly when if it overlaps and hence contradicts to any pre-existing and long-established sovereign territory.
China is already very rich compared to those poorer countries and should therefore demonstrate its willingness to engage those nations in a just, fair and equitable solution to the SCS dispute thereby showing its commitment to its slogan of 'peaceful rise'.
That's exactly what China has done since 1980s when the Viets and Pinoys came out of nowhere starting to enroaching China's SCS without any shred of sovereign basis. You ought to thank to China's patience and courtesy, If it were another country, WAR would break out already years ago.
Your nationalistic fervor in your posts is bordering on fascism to say the least. Looks like you been drinking too much Communist cool aid being fed to you by your dear censor loving, state-sponsored propaganda feeding Chinese state system. The communists are pretty skilled at feeding nationalism to simpletons like you so that you can keep your gaze focused on nations outside your borders while ignoring the lack of freedoms inside those borders.
I grew up in Europe since I was 6. Don't give me any bullcrap of commie -sponsored cool aid, will yer?
Again, direct your argument at those facts i raised , not ad-hom personal attack, ( again!?), on my personlity or beliefs or skills or which positions I like with my gals in which day... it's none of your bloody business. Thank you very much!
You come on these forums and try to air your views openly and your views are accepted here, while if you were to air any dissenting views over Tibet, Taiwan, Tiananmen in China, you would never see the light of day again.
Buta a fact is a factual. Whether you'll see any daylight here depending on the strenghth and cohenrance of your arguements when presenting, not the strenghth of your Che Guevera-alike enthusiasm
.
You want to bask in the glory of ancient China by claiming kinship with the dynasties of the old, try working on your internal issues and open up your society instead of brow-beating smaller nations.
yes, I do want to bask in teh glory of ancient and current continuity of the Middle Kingkom's sovereign territories. i am proud of it. What's wrong with that? oh, you don't have it yourself, do you? is this jealousy what's all about?
That, however, doesn't give you any moral authority trying to lecture me here on the "openess and fairness". How open or how fair China today is , or not, again, has bloody jack to do with China's historical and current sovereign territories and claims.
And my society, Nederlands and Belgium, the countries where I grew up, have so much openess and fairness that one can openly smoking marijuana or any class B drugs, how about that, huh?
Browbeating smaller nations?
browbeating whom? for what? try to get out more instead of reading NYT and CBC alike mainstream Jewish-neocon-sponsored warmongering propanganda.
Never heard of any victum browbeats their house-intruders, acutally in most case they shoot them straight away - no matter how poor and how rightful the house-intruders claim to be, they are still house-intruders and thiefs.
Research your SCS facts, get your facts straight , and present your SCS facts in your arguments, instead of opening that ad-hom-attack mouth again with empty cool aid slogans, I'd advice you.
