Well, exactly.

Some of the replies I get are childish and ridiculous. The US control land almost up to the Chinese coast bit China is the bully for finally being able to assert a few claims in the South China Sea... how far can hypocrisy go

As for the neighbours' input, we'll ask Mexico, Cuba, and South America...


> The US control land almost up to the Chinese coast

Curious, what land is this?


He must mean Guam?


I thought of that but Guam is ~1700nm from the Chinese coast. Surely that can't be it.

Camp Casey maybe? That's something like 200mi from the Chinese border (through NK of course).
