SINO JAPANESE TRAWLER ISSUE

CURRENTLY THE ISSUE IS RESOLVED WITH THE RELEASE OF THE CAPTIAN OF THE VESSEL.BUT I BELEIVE THE ISSUE IS FAR FROM OVER.I BELIVE THE ISSUE TO CONTINUE AS LONG AS CHINESE STAKE CLAIM TO THE ISLANDS.
ISSUE IS CHINESE CLAIM IS BASED ON THE FACT THEY RULED THE ISLANDS BEFORE THE JAPANESE CONQUEST  IN 1895 AND SUBQUENTLY BY THE DEFEAT OF JAPANESE IN SECOND WORLD WAR THE ISLANDS MUST BE RETURNED TO THEM.
BUT THE JAPANESE CLAIM IS THE ISLANDS WERE NEVER PART OF CHINA AND WILL NOT BE RETURNED BECAUSE THEY ANNEXED IT BEFORE THE 1895 TREATY.
SO MY OBSERVERATION IS BOTH ARE CORRECT IN THEIR POINT OF VEIWS.SO MY QUESTION TO THE CHINESE IS HOW DID THE ISLANDS BECAME PART OF CHINA - THE ANSWER IS - "BY CONQUEST IN 16th CENTURY".
SO WHEN THE CHINESE CAN CONQUER AND CLAIM IT TO THEM
JAPANESE CAN DO THE SAME.EVEN IF ACCEPT THE JAPANESE POSITION THAT THEY WERE NEVER PART OF CHINA IT WAS PART OF JAPAN FROM 1895 AND WOULD OF REMAINED WITH THEM IF NOT BY THE DEFEAT OF WORLD WAR.
THE NEW VICTOR USA CHOOSE TO GIVE IT TO THE JAPANESE IN THE 1970'S SO THAT ENDS THE CHINESE CLAIMS ON THE ISLAND.

SO NOW THE WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT. I BELIVE THAT THE ISLANDS WILL REMAIN WITH THE JAPANESE AS LONG AS THEY CHOOSE TO CLAIM IT AND DEFEND IT.AND CHOOSE NOT TOO EITHER THROUGH DILPMATIC OR MILITRY MEANS (THOUGH UNLIKLY FROM CHINESE SIDE) THE CHINESE TAKE IT BACK.

SO WHAT YOUR PEOPLE THINK OF THIS ANALYSIS. ANY COMMENTS
