Japan, the United States, Australia and the Philippines have held joint naval drills in the South China Sea, the Japanese Defense Ministry said Friday, amid China's continuous attempts to obstruct Manila's supply activities at military footholds in the water.
The four countries' training on Thursday comes after a Chinese coast guard vessel shot a water cannon at a Philippine military-chartered boat near the Manila-controlled Second Thomas Shoal in the South China Sea early this month.
The Philippines, facing increased military pressure from China in the South China Sea, is considering joint maritime patrols with Japanese, U.S. and Australian ships, according to the sources.
In February, the Chinese coast guard aimed a military-grade laser at a Philippine patrol vessel in waters near the Second Thomas Shoal.

if enough people on this planet long for the third world war, it will happen at some point. we should rather use our power to shape the future positively and to act constructively. but this can only be done together.

Who says WWIII isn't shaping the future positively?
I'm not advocating for war, but if the population were ten percent of its current size I think a lot of problems would go away

I may have misunderstood, but he said 10 percent of it's current size. So a 90% reduction? Or so ?

If that ten percent were political leaders and politicians I might not get so upset about people advocating for WWIII.
