Le Nguyen :

Wangchuk is mostly right: Feb.1979, Deng XiaoPing attacked Vietnam, pretexting to punish Vietnam's invasion of Cambodia, in order to teach Vietnam a lesson but in fact, to rapproach popular sentiment to the chinese regime.

Wangchuk from NYC :

China has not cared about these islands for over a century. Suddenly they are risking trade war w/ Japan, Vietnam & Philippines over these islands & the S. China Sea. What is going inside the CCP? Are they using claims to these uninhabitated islands to bolster popular support for the CCP by pulling the patriotism strings of Chinese people? Is this a distraction from domestic & economic problems in China?
