Senior Chinese General Orders Military To Prepare For War With Japan

Protests against the Japanese government’s purchase of three privately held islands in the Senkakus chain led to mass street protests, the burning of Japanese flags, and attacks on Japanese businesses and cars in several cities. Some carried signs that read “Kill all Japanese,” and “Fight to the Death” over disputed islands. One sign urged China to threaten a nuclear strike against Japan.

Good post. The average American does not realize that China’s only interest is China. They consider possible consequences largely irrelevant if they want to take action on something they feel is important to them.
