USA should definitely go to war with another nuclear power over islands whose sovereignty is disputed and USA takes no position on.

To be clear: US position is that the islands do in fact fall under the defense treaty! Happy to discuss more, but I think that's a good thing - not b/c I care about the Senkakus, but b/c I think it increases the odds that East Asia's territorial disputes are resolved peacefully.

Yeah, I'm not disputing that this is under the defense treaty. Just the wisdom of the USA having all these commitments (and not just in Asia).
