Japan is fortifying its far-flung island chain in the East China Sea. Japanese military and government sources said the move happens under an evolving strategy that aims to turn the tables on China's navy and keep it from ever dominating the Western Pacific Ocean. The United States, believing its Asian allies - and Japan in particular - must help contain growing Chinese military power, has pushed Japan to abandon its decades-old bare-bones home island defense in favor of exerting its military power in Asia. Tokyo is responding by stringing a line of anti-ship, anti-aircraft missile batteries along 200 islands in the East China Sea stretching 1,400 km from the country's mainland toward Taiwan. http://bit.ly/1T57U4Z http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com
