#4 Sure, LOTP, see a Provisional Translation" in PDF at www.mod.go.jp/e/publ/w paper/2011.html.

* ION PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > HAS THE PHILIPPINES UNDERSTOOD CHINESE [veiled = subtle] SIGNAL OF WAR?, as per the Spratly [Nansha] + Paracel {Xisha] Islands in South China Seas???

ARTIC > Beijing is politely trying hard NOT to say that it will resort to MILITARY MEANS/FORCE to unliterally enforce its claims, rights of sovereignty in the SCS, CHINA'S DESIRE FOR RESOLUTION VIA DIPLOAMCY DOES N-O-T MEAN IT WILL TOLERATE ON-GOING PHILIPPINE MIL CONTRUCTION OR FACILITIES IN THE SPRATLYS + PARACELS.

* FREEREPUBLIC > JAPAN SHOULD CONDUCT COMPUTER SIMULATIONS ON NUCLEAR WEAPONS: ISHIHARA (JAPAN GOING NUCLEAR), as Nippon already has the Hi-Techs + espec "lots" of Plutonium.

[Mid-1970's SIX MILYUHN DOLLAR MAN = "WE CAN REBUILD HIM ... WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY ...
BETTER, STRONGER, FASTER" here].

* WORLD MIL FORUM > DPRK KCNA MEDIA: NORTH KOREA WARNS IT WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY EXTENSION OF SOVEREIGNTY OR ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL BY JAPAN OVER THE DOKKDO ISLES OR ANY OTHER KOREAN TERRITORIES. MALICIOUS INTENTIONS BY US + NOW JAPAN [territorial, other]VALIDATES NORTH KOREA'S DEVELOPMENT OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS.

* SAME > PURSUING THE TIGERS OF WAR: CHINA CANNOT BE A TRUE ASIAN + GLOBAL SUPERPOWER IFF IT BECOMES THE "STRATEGIC REAR" OF A STRONG JAPAN IN EAST ASIA. THE BARRIERS OF THE "FIRST ISLAND CHAIN", ESPEC IN NE ASIA [Japan-Koreas-Taiwan], MUST BE BROKEN EVEN VIA BY REGIONAL WAR IFF NECESSARY.

* SAME > WORLD GOLD COUNCIL: CHINA'S GOLD RESERVES OF 1054 TONNES IS ONLY ONE-EIGHTH [1/8th] THAT OF THE US. US GOLD RESERVES COMPRISES 74.1% OF TOTAL WORLD RESERVES.

D *** NG IT, "74.1%" + YET WE NEEDED A DEBT DEAL???
