World War 3 has potentially arrived upon the Earth's door step, not in the middle East where we may get 6 months of peace, nor in Syria or elsewhere in the middle-East but in the South Pacific, where China has now 'annexed' 8 islands. This annexation has outraged both the US and Japan as as China has also claimed the airspace above it and promised to shoot down US planes if necessary as shared in the story and video from Fabian4Liberty below.
Japan and US are outraged after Beijing has declared eight uninhabited islands at the center of a territorial dispute with Tokyo part of China’s new aerial zone, warning of “defensive emergency measures” if the zone is violated.
Saturdays’ Statement by China’s Defense Ministry says that any Japanese planes in the vicinity of Senkaku/ Diaoyu Islands need to submit their flight patterns to China’s Foreign Ministry or civil aviation administration and they must maintain radio contact with Chinese authorities.
“The Chinese government has followed common international practices in the establishment of the zone, with aims of protecting its state sovereignty and territorial and airspace security, and maintaining flying orders. It is a necessary measure in China's exercise of self-defense rights. It has no particular target and will not affect the freedom of flight in relevant airspace,” China's Defense Ministry spokesman Yang Yujun told Xinhua.
