Anti-Japan demonstrations have escalated in Beijing and other Chinese cities over the disputed Senkaku (Diaoyu) Islands. Protesters have called for war and the flattening of Tokyo, fueled by long-standing grievances regarding the 1930s Rape of Nanking and Japan's refusal to issue a formal apology. While the protests appear orderly due to heavy police presence, the underlying conflict involves control over significant offshore oil and gas fields.
