A week ago we reported that following what China said was a response to counter “Japanese military aircraft disrupting the routine patrols of Chinese administrative aircraft” over the East China Sea, the world’s most populous country (and one which has the largest, 2.25 million strong, standing army) scrambled several jets and put its military on high alert. Now, it is the turn of Japan, and its brand new militant and nationalistic government, to “retaliate” and escalate tensions by one more notch, in the process crashing any hope that Chinese imports of Japanese goods may resume, and obviating the ongoing temporary plunge in the yen (which while doing nothing to boost exports to this 20% trading partner, has made imports so expensive, inflation in the past two months has already soared well above the 2% target for various key goods as previously reported).
Moments ago, Japan says it may fire warning shots and take other measures to keep foreign aircraft from violating its airspace in the latest verbal blast between Tokyo and Beijing that raises concerns that a dispute over hotly contested islands could spin out of control.
AP reports:

Japanese officials made the comments after Chinese fighters tailed its warplanes near the islands recently. The incident is believed to be the first scrambling of Chinese fighters since the tensions began to rise last spring.
According to Chinese media, a pair of J-10 fighters was scrambled after Japanese F-15s began tailing a Chinese surveillance plane near the disputed islands in the East China Sea. China has complained the surveillance flight did not violate Japanese airspace and the F-15s were harassing it.
It was the first time the Chinese media has reported fighters being mobilized to respond to Japanese air force activity in the area and comes amid what Japan says is a rapid intensification of Chinese air force activity around the islands, where Japanese and Chinese coast guard ships have squared off for months.

Perhaps it may surprise Japan, but “China’s reaction” will hardly be one of a dog retreating with its tail between its legs. In fact, it will likely be quite the opposite.
And the fact that the US has once again stepped in, and is once again on the side of the party that started this whole escalation fiasco (that would be Japan for those who have forgotten), will not help:

“Japan’s desire to fire tracer warning shots as a way of frightening the Chinese is nothing but a joke that shows the stupidity, cruelty and failure to understand their own limitations,” Maj. Gen. Peng Guangqian of the Chinese Academy of Military Sciences was quoted as saying by the China News Service and other state media.
“Firing tracer bullets is a type of provocation; it’s firing the first shot,” he said. “Were Japan to dare to fire tracers, which is to say fire the first shot, then China wouldn’t stint on responding and not allow them to fire the second shot.“

Sounds like a catalyst to double down and buy every ES contract in sight: just think of the GDP boost and appropriate fiscal multiplier once Japan is levelled.

LAST NIGHT'S DREAM OF LOCUSTS.

FIRST OF ALL, HERE IS THE DREAM INTERPRETATION FROM A SIGHT.

A Swarm of Locusts Dream Explanation — A swarm of locusts is one's dream represents an army. And an army of soldiers represents a swarm of locusts which will cause havoc and destruction.

AS I HAVE DREAMED OF SWARMS OF ANTS IN THE PAST, THAT WHEN UPON CLOSER INSPECTION, IN THE DREAM, I NOTICED THEY WERE CHINESE SOLDIERS THAT  LOOKED LIKE ANTS. THIS DREAM I HAD WAS ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO.
LAST NIGHT I HAD ANOTHER DREAM, BUT THIS TIME THEY WERE A SWARM OF LOCUSTS, AND AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE ABOVE DREAM INTERPRETATION, THIS MEANS AN ARMY OF SOLDIERS.
NOW TAKE THE ABOVE STORY OF JAPAN AND CHINA, AND THE FACT THAT THE U.S. WOULD SUPPORT JAPAN IN ANY WAR, AND NOW YOU SEE WHY I KEEP GETTING THESE PROPHETIC DREAMS ABOUT THE SWARMS OF CHINESE SOLDIERS THAT WILL INVADE DURING A WW3!
