USA angry about Turkey's military exercise with China

[siegecrossbow]

HEY, Isnt tea Chinese too?? Or reported first use started in China?

Gunpowder and firearms were invented in China too but that didn't stop the hawks either.

In yellow sea, not half way around the world (or in Japan sea, the other side of korea peninsula).

The yellow sea isn't owned by China and 3 other countries share it with China.

Kevin Rudd has gone and the new Govt of Ms.Julia Gillard is staunchly Pro-US.

Australia's economic future is not with US but with China. Ms Gillard should bear in mind that Australian Economic growth is linked with China not with the US. Natural resources from Australia find their way mainly to China. If China was not here Australia would be another Greek tragedy.

Of course I am right. Also, when is the last time China exercised in the Indian Ocean?

Yes, so let's sit down and analyse this a little:

Yellow Sea borders China, S. Korea and N. Korea; south of Japan Sea borders S.Korea, N.Korea and Japan.

The US and S. Korea military exercise by name is designed to target N. Korea only and not designed to threaten any other country -- given that China is not in the military alliance of the US/S.Korea/Japan pack and does not have any direct/live communication on this exercise (so misunderstanding is more likely to occur), taken into account of the long range lethal weapons used in this exercise, why would any friendly and considerate country want to choose Yellow sea over south of Japan Sea?

There are two answers to this -- First possible answer: the US didn't think of it initially, and didn't think that China would mind. When China voiced concerns about its own safety, a considerate US administration should offer to use south Japan sea without hesitation, but instead the US insisted on exercising in "any international waters as it wants" shows that the US administration is neither friendly nor considerate to another country that is deemed as non-ally. Alternative explanation -- the US wants to use this location and it wants to threaten China's safety in the name of N. Korea. Either explanation would warrant a complaint from China, and when the exercise was eventually relocated to japan sea, China stopped complaining of being threatened. This is very different from when China and Turkey did an exercise that is half way around the world from the US and the US complains. It is precisely this kind of arrogant attitude consistently demonstrated by the US administration on the international stage that alienates itself even from other NATO members.

The U.S. truly is the most arrogant and hypocrite state on earth, those in Washington (U.S. leaders and politicians) are despicable and disgusting people.

here this is not the problem,why China is considering both sea's as its lake when it also borders numerous nation's that to in close proximity

The Pacific Ocean isn't owned by the U.S. I assume you wouldn't mind if China decided to exercise in the Pacific with Cuba and Venezuela, right?

China should try to exercice in Pacific ocean with Cuba and Venezula!

Yes, they should...

Will they delay the f-35 delivery to Turkey, just for the sake of this irritation. ?
Congressmen might try to make some noise in White House over it.

There might be some truth in what you say but Australia's economy is dirrectly connected to US. I mean the slightest shift in US economy is felt in Australia. I have lived in Australia for several years and American investments in that country is huge. The Australian dollar is connected to the health of US dollar as well.

None are being made so far. Appears to be more of a silent tantrum than anything.

Now why would you say that....US has every right to find out why one of its important strategic ally that provides airbase for its troops transitions to Iraq and Afghanistan (not to mention all supply routes for fuel and water,etc to the war zone) has gone bunkers and now deals with Iran, China, Syria. They also not so happy how Turkey rudely kicked the Israelis out of the Anatolian exercise last year but now China is OK?
Turkey needs to do some explaining as into where they actually stand as an ally of US which shares important classified intelligence with.
