China, Taiwan and Japan
Ian Hamet, who lives in China, has a scarily fascinating perspective on the news of Japan preparing defense plans for two of its island, against the assumption of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan and associated actions in the region.
It’s fairly lengthy, and touches on the Chinese power structure, the visceral, encouraged revulsion of the Japanese, and the direction things are taking if nothing upsets the cart. Which the very publicity about these plans risks doing, though I can see it being a “we know what you’re up to and don’t even think about it move,” misbegotten or not.
