In his speech, Stone says the United States is manipulating the public about the Chinese threat.

Links Jeju Island to his work on Cold War miiltarization and "creating enemies."

If he wants to protest on environmental grounds and the problems the military would bring fine, but to say China isn't a threat is to stick one's head in the sand.

I agree. I can see why locals might NIMBY, but to say that China isn't a threat... /shakes head
