    Why are usa ships near china. Yankees always invade invade invade. Thousands of kilometers away from their coast. Those rogue ships should be treated like the pirate ships they are.

      What are you talking about? These are hundreds of miles from China’s shores.

              It’s a reef with dredged up sand dumped on it. It is not a valid claim. Definitely international waters.

                  “People like you”? I’m calling out China’s claims as being bullshit (as are many other country’s claims, and historical claims like France’s colonial land grabs). And what sort of insult is “wordsmith weasel” supposed to be? That sounds almost like a complement.
