I asked you a question. Answer it or shut up.
Quote:Again - that's not any larger of a presence than would be expected. They're the strongest military force and feel that they are keeping the peace in the region (just like the USA like to claim they're the strongest nation and are keeping the peace), but unlike the USA it's actually more truthful because PRC are strongly opposed to instigating war.
That wasn't my point. This is a red herring.
Quote:Firstly, international law is not enforceable over local laws. If it was it would be a complete affront to democracy. And if it was then Bush, Cheney, Obama, and half the CIA would be locked up for breaching the UN Convention against torture. And secondly - there are much more important international laws ignored by the USA.
Trnslation: It's okay if China does it, guys, because they're not America!
You're so blinded by your biases I wonder why I ever think any conversation with you could be productive. You lack the nerve to question your own premises, and enjoy repeating spoon-few sentiments as if they make you a cutting-edge thinker.
You couldn't cut warm butter with such a dull mind.
Now, go back, reread my question and answer it.
