It's making the headlines since months. My english is too poor to summarize the whole situation so I'm gonna use Wikipedia's help : If I create this thread, it's because today, finally, the video of the collision was released on youtube.

Re: Senkaku Island issue Meh its a hopeless argument China is eventually going to win though. They have so much power and its growing. Japan is rapidly declining as a world power.
Re: Senkaku Island issue But I wonder if Japan will continue to bend over Chine even now that it has be proven that they are right.
Re: Senkaku Island issue lol.... really China is going to gain more and more power. Politically, its for the best for ROK and Japan to become allies but we're incompatible historically. Its a real pity. Its also very sketchy to trust China as a political ally.
Re: Senkaku Island issue Really... do we need to discuss this on BigSoccer...? You know where these discussion lead, and it took us THREE years to get rid of ultranationalist trolls... I won't shut off the thread, but I really invite you to come here to talk about soccer and FUN stuff... There are plenty of political-oriented forums out there!!
Looks like boat chicken to me. The Chinese boat definitely changed directions into the Japanese boat but the Japanese boat could have moved out of the way.
Look at 2'14 [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULHitmtvaFw&feature=player_embedded"]YouTube - Truth of the Senkaku incident 4 - Chinese Boat ram Japan Coast Guard[/ame] I don't think the japanese boat could do more. From another perspective : [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLKJB2LRQfI&feature=player_embedded"]YouTube - ?????????B[/ame] Clearly, the japanese boat try to escape.
