Nothing like a US ballistic missile to make our enemies say "Oh shit!"

Good. We need to continue to push the envelope on the Chinese. I hope that are continue to keep them in check, as the rest of far east is watching to see what we do.

I say we need to make clear that China cannot change long-held international norms. Building artificial islands and then using that to claim an exclusive economic zone for example. If I was part of the NSE I'd advise we continue our flights as well as sail where international law allows.
