#3 Perhaps more pragmatically, China PCorrectly may be getting ready for a shooting war soon vee Japan in the East China Sea, hence it may attempt to distance itself from Japan's ally the USA.

China has sent its CMS vessels to Yonaguni near TAIWAN, indic to me that its interest in the area goes beyond the Daoyu/Senkkau Islands sovereignty dispute.

* CHINA DAILY FORUM > CHINA WARNS OF RIGHT-WING SHIFT IN JAPAN.

"Right-wing" also read, PRO-NUCLEAR WEAPONS.

* SAME > CHINA'S DIAOYU ISLANDS CLAIMS NOT MOTIVATED BY RESOURCES.

* SAME > CHINA TO USE FORCE IFF JAPAN CHALLENGES ITS SOVEREIGNTY.

* TOPIX, DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > CHINA VESSELS CONFRONT JAPANESE COAST GUARD IN DISPUTED ISLAND WATERS | CHINA CONFRONTS JAPAN SHIPS NEAR EAST CHINA SEA ISLANDS.

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > CHINA TO RESPOND FORCEFULLY, IFF ITS SOVEREIGNTY IS CHALLENGED.

* SAME > CHINA AGAIN SAYS NO CONCESSIONS ON TERRITORIAL SOVEREIGNTY. Chinese VFM Zhang Zhi.

* SAME > CHINA'S GOOD MOVE ON THE DIAOYU ISLANDS.

* SAME > SO WHAT IS CHINA DOING, DROPPING DRILLING DEVICES IN JAPANESE EEZ?

* CHINESE MILITARY FORUM > JAPANESE SHIPS WERE TOLD TO IMMEDIATELY LEAVE CHINA'S TERRITORIAL WATERS.

* SAME > CHINA FLEET TO CONTINUE PATROLLING DIAOYU WATERS.

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > SINO-JAPANESE RIFT IS PART OF US [post-WW2, anti-China] STRATEGY, SAYS EX-DIPLOMAT.

#6 "Red on Red"

Rent-seekers of crony capitalism v people who haven't realised marxism always fails, is more accurate, but not as catchy.

#8 Why am I thinking of the old saying:

"It's a shame they both can't lose."

#9 I believe the Chinese People's Daily should receive the 2012 Leon Trotsky Ice Axe Award for best display of Intra-Party Discipline.

#10 I've got to admit that I'm conflicted about the wealth of Communist Party members. When I go to China I'm looked after very, very well by the Princlings of the ruling class, who do nothing to hide their wealth, the opposite in fact.
The buggers also know my weaknesses,wine, ~~women~~ and exotic Chinese food.

Thucydides: The strong do what they will, and the weak suffer what they must.

Ancient (and genuine*) Chinese aphorism (paraphrased): History records winners as kings and losers as bandits.

#12 Tipper, the big problem I have with China is that its economy and current class system is based around the idea that a good credit rating springs from the barrel of a gun.
