and it's for that reason i think we -- it's why we care about the south china sea or the east china sea. and the challenge that we face, this goes to hall's point of the changing regional balances -- is that some of the rising regional powers or some cases declining regional powers exerting themselves to more completely dominate their own regions, has found that they can -- if they can take certain actions that fall below the threshold that would normally elicit a military response from us, they can through a series of slices begin to chip away the foundations of this order, and so we're faced with a very challenging question. as china militarizes these land reclaimation projects, sand bars they're building, starts to put air strips on them. a what point do you respond' when the put hq9 antiaircraft missiles on do you take them out then? maybe not. that would seem like a small step that warranted a massive u.s. military response that would put is in a conflict with china. so maybe you wait until they've didn't on two islands. is that enough? it what about three, ten, 100? what about whe

course, to do with a very different problem, which is china's expansion in the south china sea and also the easthina sea where there have been a number of clashes and near incidents between japan and china. basically, where both the obama and the bush -- previous bush administrations have been trying to do is to well south korea and japan together to contain china. in japan, under eight, has been more than willing to do that. that is why i think he is doing exactly what the pentagon wants him to do, which is to send this task force through the south china sea. south korea is a very different situation, as christine pointed out, where it is likely you will have a progressive president come to power in 60 days and frombe back where we were 2003-2008, who was loathed whether bush a administration. i don't know how many conferences on anti-mechanism and south korea i went to during that teething because whenever a south korean leader tries to stand up and tell the u.s. no, suddenly, it is a matter of anti-mechanism. south korea is in a much more difficult position in this general policy of u.s. of t
