US Navy says China’s military buildup won’t stop patrols

Again sail thru the SCS is considered as stopping China expansion, so to stop a man from claiming that house what you have to do it's walk across his front yard as way to prove that you're stopping his claim....make sense I'm wondering if the man claiming the house is hopeless or if the man that walk across the front yard is.

It does make sense WHEN the house is not his.

You can mock my arguments all you want and it will do you no good. China is claiming the entirety of the SCS as hers. The US is stopping China simply by going thru the region. Nobody believes China when the Chinese government says there is no claim. Everybody believes US when we say we are making sure the region remains free.

I'm not mocking your argument, you're entitle to have your opinion but I just found it hilarious. it's pointless to go over the debate about the SCS claim, it will get us to nowhere. If US believe that sail thru mean a containment of China...as long as they're happy with this definition, we don't have objection neither.

I'm not mocking your argument,...

But the world is mocking China's claim to the entirety of the SCS.

Do we really care? , it's so funny for those who mock China's claim and made so much noise to get attention while we just keep ignore them

Of course you care. Else you would be as saber rattling as we are. And no, you are not ignoring what we do. You cannot ignore what we do, certainly not at the diplomatic level. The build up of those fake 'islands' is a clear indicator of what China want -- the entirety of the SCS.

We care how other mock on our claim? If we care we wouldn't make these islands in SCS. What else can we do beside ignore US so call the freedom of navigation, we keep ignoring US for now and we cannot ignore US when we reach military parity...isn't that obvious.
