    In reality many never considered it "real" to begin with, even if worked and counted...they threw out "Jap in a Raft" some years ago, but basically, the same premise....higher minds then mine...LOL

    There ought not be a dispute, these islands were drawn on ancient Chinese maps going back 600 years, they've had this subject discussed at the UN at least a half dozen times. Fisherman do visit the islands and sleep there on occasions but it doesn't mean the islands are theirs ?
    All these countries are after land because there may be oil under the sea
