'China is bullying us into shutting our mouths' | Sky News Australia: Sky News host Andrew Bolt says what he most fears is China "bullying us into shutting our mouths" as China apologists tell Australia to temper its rhetoric toward the global power. "There is a good argument for us to do just that - to shut up and crawl to China - but if you're going to do that, say it straight... let's put profit before principles because freedom isn't worth the fight," he said. "That sea to our north, in fact, includes some of our most vital shipping lanes, and China, by stealing this territory, can now shut them down if it wants and strangle us. That's none of our business? "No, China is not into world domination if you mean sending armies into every corner of the word, but it managed to invade Tibet, gone to war with Vietnam, killed Indian troops over disputed borders, taken the South China Sea, claims some islands around Japan, threatens to invade Taiwan and sent warships into territories claimed by the Philippines. "This dictatorship wants to set rules for the rest of us. That's the global domination that I really fear."
