“You know, the FINGER.”

Ultimately, it's just (accident-risking) dickwaving that means nothing. It's for domestic consumption by Chinese nationalists.

I’d imagine they also want to change the risk-assessment for militaries considering operations near China’s magical dotted line.

A Chinese fighter jet over the south CHINA Sea, who could have figured that?
Now, is anyone going to ask what was an American jet doing there?

It’s international waters, anyone can be there. Its named the China Sea because it’s next to China, not because China owns it. It’s not like the Gulf of Mexico belongs to Mexico.

By that idiotic rationale, the US shouldn’t be allowed in the Gulf of Mexico.
