From what I understand is they are fighting over uninhabited islands. But I guess there is some oil or something under those islands. Rioters are idiots though. Doesnt matter who controls the islands, everyone rioting, their life will not be affected 1 bit by whether or not china controls the islands.
Looks like the taiwanese also joined in. Maybe they will join forces with the Chinese navy to evict the Japs?!

There is some nice land on the continent of Antartica for them, too, if they want to get out of the heat.
No, we cant give them that...too much oil underneath that we are going to want someday when we drain the rest of the world of the oil.
(Don't worry! They will either freeze to death or starve to death. Either way, they will all be long gone before we need that oil. )
