big moment for vietnam

is there going to be war in the south china sea? perhaps the chinese have forgotten the bloody nose they got from the vietnamese in 1979. 

as for india's responses, it should make platitudinous noises, asking both sides to work towards peace, and offering to mediate. that would be a nice snub to china, treating them as a petty belligerent in the region. first task for new foreign minister whoever that is. 

maybe shashi tharoor can have a role in this, and can bring in all his mediation skills from the old UN days.
