China Is Mass-Producing Islands To Extend Its Strategic Borders

[KRonn]

Very sneaky Chinese! Building islands to increase their territory! Next thing they'll expand and build land bridges to within a few miles of their regional adversaries so they have land borders.

Iceland actually went out a re-enforced a small (very small) island called Kolbeinsey It is a small rock in the ocean about 100 kilometers north of iceland itself. It is eroding. If it erodes away under the water line it will mean the icelandic economic zone in the norht atlantic (fishing rights) will recede 100 kilometers further south. So... The island is being re-enforced with concrete to prevent or end the erosion.

So, not novel.

At least there is actually an island there. And it belongs to Iceland.
