        US military bases intimidated Chinese and we just built up some artificial islands to calm down.

        The South China Sea dispute isn't just about the United States. It's a very serious concern to several nations in the region & around the globe.

        If the US has a problem with China it should bring it up with the UN not try to pick a fight with them.

        The UN is run by the US and the UK. The US should tell itself it has an issue? That’s cool. I see that working.

        The UN is not run by either of those countries. The UN HQ might be in the US (Many people want it moved) its leadership is made of people from different parts of the world. The SG is from Portugal, the Deputy SG is from Nigeria.

        Matthew is correct. Also worth noting China too is a permanent member.

        I’m not disputing who is and isn’t a member and I’m not disputing what it looks like. Your facts are not speaking to what I’m saying.

        Your facts are noted, but not really new to anyone. For the time being it's the only venue for such disputes. The only alternative here is armed conflict.

        Trump pulling out of TPP served to strengthen China. TPP was part of our national and economic security to contain China and Trump just threw it away for NO reason. Trump IS a National Security threat and this is one more example.

        Everything the US does with its military is designed to intimidate and coerce others. The Us military complex is the enforcer for the 8 big banking families of the world. We do nothing positive with it.
