#1 Despite denials, it appears Beijing is becom increasingly twitchy ...

* PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > GROWING CHINESE CONCERN OVER ITS INTERNAL SITUATION. Across-the-board summary and finger-fiddling as per various national issues, from Uighurs to water shortages to labor to banking, etc.

* SAME > NOW,A DETERIORATED SURROUNDING FOR CHINA? Rising China versus Vietnam + Philippines = ASEAN, oer the Spratlys + Paracels.

LATEST SINO-VIET, SINO-PHIL DISPUTE IN SOUTH CHINA SEAS ILLUSTRATIVE OF ONGOING WESTERN ATTEMPTS TO ISOLATE OR CONTAIN CHINA ON LAND + SEA???

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS [Times of India] RED ALERT: CHINA GEARS UP [for Leadership Changes +..] TO AVOID SOVIET-STYLE COLLAPSE.

Beijing takes notice that the CPC has been in power for 62 years, + that the Cold War Soviet CPSU collapsed in 1991 after 74 years in power.

["BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA" = Demon Astrology scene here].

versus

* CHINESE MILITARY FORUM > [TIME = Zachary Karabell] HARD OR SOFT LANDING FOR CHINA? HOW ABOUT NO LANDING. Econ of Rising China = TV's "Energizer Bunny" = keeps on going-n-going-n-going UPWARD = DYNAMIC EXPANSION MAY NOT SLOW OR STOP FOR A V-E-R-Y L-O-N-G TIME TO COME YET.

* BHARAT RAKSHAK > [Video]RUSSIA'S + CHINA'S NEW WORLD ORDER: CHINESE PRESIDENT CALLS FOR GLOBAL GOVERNANCE.

Which Radical Islam in similar belabels as GLOBAL/UNIVERSAL JIHAD + SHARIA.

* PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > WILL PLA FIRSTLY ATTACK US MILITARY BASES IN JAPAN? | LATEST RAND REPORT REPEATS WARNING THAT US BASES IN JAPAN [Futenma MCAS. Kadena AB], GUAM COULD BE ATTACKED FIRST DURING TAIWAN CRISIS.

Lest we fergit, most Analysts believe that any DPRK unilateral or premptive attack agz the US-ROK will NOT occur unless Beijing already ordered or consented to it.

#4 God, this is beginning to look like the 60's all over again; China's Great Leap (somewhere); riots in U.S. over all sorts of things like civil rights, draft, Vietnam; France having its own chaos. Heaven (if I can use that word here) help us.

#5 Observers speculate that China is also providing training in riot control.

I wouldn't be surprised if China also wasn't supplying riot-control 'police' as well.

#6 It's a neat solution to when you can't trust your own people or your own security apparatus. You can always trust the Chinese!

#8 You can always trust the Chinese!

When your metaphorical back is against the wall, you don't have much choice in who to contract with.

Likely for the right price (economic incentives), the Chinese could supply troops that were either ethnic Korean, Korean-Chinese, or Korean in appearance. Given their track record, Chinese troops dressed in police uniforms isn't a deal-breaker, whether they're NorK or Chinese 'police'.

#9 True, Pappy. My suspicion is he can trust the Chinese to do the bare minimum and little else; I suspect they don't want to spend any money they don't have to.

I was also thinking of the reports that he had recently purged his entire security apparatus.

#10 ION FREEREPUBLIC > CHINA WARNS US TO STAY OUT OF SOUTH CHINA SEA DISPUTE, or becom involved in unwanted mil conflict.

* WAFF > PHILIPPINES: US MUST DEFEND FILIPINOS ON DISPUTED SPRATLY ISLANDS, as per provisions of the 1951 US-PHIL MUTUAL DEFENSE TREATY which covers attacks, real or potential, on any of the Parties' territories.

* CHINESE MILITARY FORUM > CHINA WARNS VIETNAM OF POSSIBLE MILITARY RESPONSE [counter-response] IN SOUTH CHINA SEAS. "Any + all Actions necessary", including but not limited to MilAction.

* PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > BEYOND THE CHINESE "MONROE DOCTRINES". WILL AMERICA'S PAST BE ASIA'S [China's] FUTURE THEN?.

* CHINA DAILY FORUMS > MCCAIN: US MUST BOOST ASEAN DEFENSES IN SOUTH CHINA SEA, to help SE Asian nations = Partners counter Chinese any aggression.

* SAME > CCP AUTHORISED 400 PLA NUKE-TIPPED CRUISE MISSLES [Sub-launched CMS] BY 2015.

POSTERS = VIETNAM, OTHER SE ASIAN PEOPLES
ARE SERVANT RACES, STATES [historically?] FOR CHINA.

* SAME > CHINA WILL HAVE 20,000 WARHEADS OR 1200 MEGATONNES OF PLUTONIUM MATERIALS BY 2020.

POSTERS = China will empty out Tibet's Uranium Mines; China wid such an Arsenal will be able to Diploamtically, Militarily induce or force Russia to give back Outer Manchuria.

* IIRC SAME > CHINA NEEDS LEBENSTRAUM [living space]: CCP ACCEPTS NUCLEAR MAD [Mutual Assured Destruction]TO GUARANTEE THE SURVIVAL OF THE CHINESE RACE ON EARTH.

Ditto as per having enough Natural Resources, etc. available to support 2.0Bilyuhn Chinese.

Does INDJUH = India know???

Rising Islamic Nuclear Caliphate???

* PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > [The Diplomat] CHINA LOOMS OVER THE RUSSIAN FAR EAST.

Rising China's growing across-the-board comparative advantages = national, geopol endowments stands to intimidate + overwhelm Mama Russia.
