India Vs. China Vs. Japan
We could handle this like gentlemen
Or we could get into some gangsta ****
--Snoop

China: It's makeups to breakups.

What we're seeing an interesting dynamic, where the US, Taiwan and Japan are forming a cohesive front to a rising China. Lee is about to honour the war dead at Yasukina in Japan, a move intended to show some solidarity with Taiwan's former colonial master.

Meanwhile, China is pushing for an Indian UNSC seat by making amends with the former enemy...basically to rob Japan of the seat. They face a common enemy in Pakistani terrorists crossing their borders, and both are weary of the US' influence on their borders to the west.....interesting...
