China has retaliated against Japan for the seizure of a Chinese fishing trawler by blocking the export of rare earth elements to Japan. China dominates the market for such elements, which are crucial to many manufacturing processes.
In other news, there are reports that female suicide bombers from Algeria are being prepared for major terrorist attacks in Europe.

Re: Angela Merkel, Germany will become Islamic state, I'd like to point out that this is not at all inevitable. People who say this or any similar process can't be stopped, are failing to notice one obvious fact. Which is, that the West can stop immigration and multiculturalism any time it wants to, because the people who are coming in are not able to support themselves. White people are supporting the enrichers, and when white people stop supporting them, whether the enrichers are Muslims, black Africans, mestizos, or any other group, they will starve to death, or because we are kind, we will take care of them but take away their political rights. So there is nothing inevitable about the invasion. Even though Muslims control a lot of oil, that's also because we have been too polite to take it back from them. Angela Merkel and other people who say things like what she says here, are still playing at noblesse oblige. That can and will change.
Re China and Japan: threats and opportunities!
Someone else will jump in to be the middle-man!
